I want to revive the memory of Mr. Romny and the CNN audience:

"It may be dangerous to be an enemy of America, but to be a friend of America is fatal." Henry Kissinger.

"America has no permanent friends or enemies, only interests" Henry Kissinger.

All Europeans should know what NATO's first Secretary General, Lord Ismay, once said: "[NATO's purpose is] to keep the Russians out, the Americans in and the Germans down."

When was the last time NATO was a force for good in the world?

The war needs to end because Ukrainians are dying in a proxy war between the US/UK/EU/NATO and Russia. They should not have allowed Victoria Nuland to dictate their fate if they wanted to maintain their sovereignty.

How the Media Frames Political Issues

In The Emergence of American Political Issues (1977) McCombs and Shaw state that the most important effect of the mass media is "its ability to mentally order and organize our world for us. In short, the mass media may not be successful in telling us what to think, but they are stunningly successful in telling us what to think about."[13] The presidential observer Theodore White corroborates this conclusion in The Making of a President (1972):

The power of the press in America is a primordial one. It sets the agenda of public discussion; and this sweeping political power is unrestrained by any law. It determines what people will talk and think about - an authority that in other nations is reserved for tyrants, priests, parties and mandarins.[14]

McCombs and Shaw also note that the media's tendency to structure voters' perceptions of political reality in effect constitutes a bias: "to a considerable degree the art of politics in a democracy is the art of determining which issue dimensions are of major interest to the public or can be made salient in order to win public support."[15]
