The narratives being endlessly pumped out by the pro-war Russophobes in the West, and the actions they promote -- such as more arms for Ukraine, or deployment of U.S. troops -- are very close to crossing "red lines". Given the past record of the neocon/neolib networks for spreading disinformation for the sake of war -- remember Iraq's "WMDs", or Russiagate? -- one does not have to be a "Putin apologist" to question them. Why are there not more sane voices ringing out in the West?
