Also remember that after the Bolshevik Revolution, the new Soviet Union was invaded by 14 countries, to 'strangle socialism in its crib'. It's not just hatred of Russia. It's hatred of the system that takes power away from oligarchs and bankers. The civil war was the old Russian monarchists who allied with the US, UK, France, Japan, and other countries that invaded in 1918. Winston Churchill even used a chlorine type poison gas on Russians.
Thank you, Regis, for this excellent historical summary over the last hundred years or so
of the east-west conflict and the accompanying Russophobia. I would like to add to your discussion of European colonialism that the US decided to get into the "game" by fomenting the Spanish-American war ending up with the Philippines and Cuba and we know what a disaster that was and still is for both peoples.

Ceasefire is not going to happen unless Trump cuts off all military and financial support to Kiev Nazis.
Zelensky has a gun pointed at his head to continue the war by any means necessary.
Well said Regis, deeply informed with historical perspective. Prudent prognosis.
Amazing presentation, thank you.
