Dear CCI Friends,
The Ukraine situation is moving speedily to a place where World War III could be the end result! These events are not being mentioned in our mainstream print media or TV.
Why Not???

Ukraine’s Importance to Russia and the United States
Ukraine was one of the largest USSR republics and the most important at the fall of the USSR. It held peoples from half a dozen different countries. Ukraine had two distinct districts: western Ukraine and eastern Ukraine. The former was the breadbasket of the union; the latter was the manufacturing base due to deep beds of coal and rich iron deposits. Russians predominate in the Donbass region.
The United States has spent unlimited USD and personnel to bring the new Ukraine into the U.S. orbit with hopes Ukraine would join NATO. This would put NATO right next to Russia’s border. This is a burning issue for Russia. Ukraine, rife with oligarchs and corruption, is among the most poorly-managed nations in the world despite (or due to U.S. dollars?).
Biden, et al, began to put NATO war games around Ukraine last week. They are comprised of tens of thousands of troops, tanks, missiles, etc. and could easily become an invading force. Russia responded symmetrically with troops, tanks, bombers and missiles.
Is This a “Surprise War Waiting to Happen”?
None of this build-up has been mentioned in U.S. news or television! Bizarre? Yes!
Is the U.S. preparing for war … with American people not being informed???
If so, it could go Nuclear immediately if one missile is fired. It would become WWIII!
Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard broke the silence on Fox News last evening.
Please read, digest and send comments to your friends, colleagues and Congress members!
