Re: [Salon] The Nova Kakhovka Dam



This is, of course, the mirror image of the dubious claim that Russia blew up its own natural gas pipeline. Yet few in the West were willing to question the charge, at least publicly.

Let's begin by setting some objective reality parameters.  The Russians blew up the Nova Kakhovka Dam, it is under their control, only they could have access to it.  We also should understand how the discussion on this disaster, putting the lives of 60,000 Ukrainians in peril, is evolving in the media.  To understand the dynamics, Prof Tim Snyder, again, hits the nail on the head showing how a false narrative begins by positioning as credible that we don't know who blew up the dam.  From there the lies and false assumptions take us down a path of creating an alternative reality where Ukraine inflicts unspeakable harm on itself to, what? hurt the Russians?  Worth a read.
