Do you know how long you would live without an immune system? Not long at all. And that is what a Department of Defense is to a nation. Ukraine has a right to fend off a viral attack on its body and the EU has a right to care what happens to Ukraine to keep the infection from spreading. You want to see corrupt media? Look at the vile propaganda fed to the Russian people all day long. THAT caused this war if any media did and it certainly is perpetuating it by keeping Russians in the dark and whipping up patriotic fervor. Don't agree with the war? Go out in the streets of Moscow and yell it out. See how free you remain. While I agree Western Media has done many a disservice and helped sway the public to unjust wars such as Iraq, this particular war is Defensive in nature. It doesn't even involve retaliation outside of Ukraine's land, THEIR BODY. Not all wars are equal except they are all Hell.
