Thanks - yes, the over-simplification is a sign that people's survival programs are being manipulated and deliberately used to keep them intimidated and supportive of more violence. The planners of this nightmare try to conduct populations as if they are orchestras, they think they need to have everyone playing their tune or they themselves will die. This is part of why thousands of protestors have been arrested in Russia, while Putin 'frees' Ukraine from the oppressive regime that he claims is doing what he is actually doing in broad daylight.

Taking sides is not helpful, but I have to question the intentions of those who support Putin since it is so painfully obvious that he is lying over and over again - even when viewed as objectively as possible.
