A number of surprising media articles and commentaries have emerged regarding President Donald Trump as of late.
Naturally, these types of articles further disrupt the black-and-white narrative of Republicans and Democrats, respectively, that the ultra-woke media has long attempted to portray.
Especially when the commentary is penned by an individual who admittedly does not care for Trump, but it does see Trump’s soundness on foreign policy.
Indeed, Alan J. Kuperman, an opinion contributor for The Hill, recently provided a reasoned approach to the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
Hint: It’s the type of narrative that should have been more widely publicized from the start.
And Kuperman’s opinion in this particular piece is especially blatant from the rather stunning headline – “Sadly, Trump is right on Ukraine.”
And as one reads the article even more deeply, a number of things soon become clear – including the fact that this opinion piece “sadly” should have been released at least two years ago, especially if it had a chance, however, small, of altering the course of the war and saving hundreds of thousands of lives.
Not to mention hundreds of billions of dollars.
Which may well be why Kuperman, hardly a fan of Trump, has made it rather evident that the Russia-Ukraine War is eminently more complex than most have been led to realize … on either “side.”
“I rarely agree with President Trump, but his latest controversial statements about Ukraine are mostly true,” The Hill contributor began.
Translation: Kuperman should be more credible to a wide audience given his immediate personal distancing from Trump on most matters … except matters in which the American president has a blatantly obvious, indisputable point.
“[Trump’s comments] seem preposterous only because western audiences have been fed a steady diet of disinformation about Ukraine for more than a decade,” Kuperman continued.
And then Kuperman proceeded to outline the various ways in which the current travesty in Ukraine is hardly “unprovoked,” though the provocation is also no justification for Russian President Vladimir Putin’s murderous moves either.
“First, as recently documented by overwhelming forensic evidence, and affirmed even by a Kyiv court, it was Ukrainian right-wing militants who started the violence in 2014 that provoked Russia’s initial invasion of the country’s southeast including Crimea. Back then, Ukraine had a pro-Russia president, Viktor Yanukovych, who had won free and fair elections in 2010 with strong support from ethnic Russians in the country’s southeast,” Kuperman wrote.
Setting up the rather clear context for what was to come, Kuperman noted that Yanukovych began to pursue stronger economic relations with Russia in 2013, which apparently enraged the West.
Then, surprise, surprise, armed “right wing militants” apparently raided the capital’s square and began shooting at Ukrainian police; the Ukrainian police returned fire; and the militants proceeded to claim that the police shot unarmed individuals.
Shortly thereafter, Putin made his move.
“Putin responded by deploying troops to Crimea and weapons to the southeast Donbas region on behalf of ethnic Russians who felt their president had been undemocratically overthrown. While this backstory does not justify Russia’s invasion, it explains that it was hardly ‘unprovoked,’” Kuperman added.
And there goes one of the biggest media narratives of all … the continued insistence on an “unprovoked” attack.
Kuperman also outlined all the various ways in which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky further fanned the fires of conflict, especially by refusing to grant Donbas the limited political autonomy that had been agreed upon, and definitely through desiring to join NATO.
Naturally, Kuperman blasted Biden for letting Zelensky run wild and do whatever he wanted, including poke the bear into a full-blown conflict.
“Had Trump been president, he likely would not have provided such a blank check, so Zelensky would have had little choice but to implement the Minsk deals to avert war,” Kuperman declared.
Yikes. That’s quite the strong statement for someone who began the article by indicating their lukewarm, at best, opinion of Trump.
But they clearly have a stronger preference for the truth, which is why no one – not even Biden – escaped the criticism over Russia-Ukraine disinformation.
Little wonder that former President Joe Biden had his effective “Disinformation Governance Board” dismantled in that case … considering that department would have been all over the routine disinformation that generally swirls around the Russia-Ukraine War.
That discontinued department also enables the likes of former presidential candidate Hilary Clinton to continue ranting about Trump worldwide.
During the World Forum on the Future of Democracy, Tech and Humankind in Berlin, Germany, Clinton was sure to continue peddling the same narrative while also blasting Trump as an autocrat, as reported by The Hill.
“Autocracy is on the march,” Clinton boomed, in a clear reference to Trump.
Never mind the fact that Clinton’s own party enabled much of the war in the first place.
Not that the disinformation queen will admit to that.
In a report from Deadline, Clinton continued to prattle on about the exact same narrative that has been spoon-fed to Americans for years … and she even hilariously demanded “accountability.”
“Everybody would hope that the war in Ukraine could come to an end, and the unjustified suffering of the Ukrainian people could be ended. But there is no peace without justice; there’s no peace without accountability, and there is no peace without every effort undertaken to end the impunity of those who ordered this invasion and those who perpetuated the killings and the war crime,” Clinton brayed.
Is that so?
In some ways, it would appear that Clinton may well speak disinformation more fluently than English.
