Living in Ukraine-controlled Kharkov (to be close to his children), Lira saw early on, from his unique vantage point, that the propaganda being fed to the American people from the mainstream media about that "plucky little democracy" in Ukraine fighting to protect "our values" was, as is all pro-war propaganda, utterly false.

War propaganda. We don't need to go down the whole line, but "yanking babies from incubators" and "giving Viagra to the troops" and "mobile rape vehicles" and "mobile chemical weapons delivery devices" and "these Iraqi weapons could decimate New York!" and so on and so on. 

You know the routine. You know how war propaganda works.

And you know how furious the US regime becomes when anyone dares to refute that war propaganda.
