    The choice of words is clone like and that can only be deliberate.

    Oh..."Unprovoked": As one commentator below puts it:

    "The way people add the word “unprovoked” ignoring the 6 years before the invasion."

    The adjective is of course used because the media have made it a prerequisite for any discussion. It's an Overton window virtue signal showing shes "onside" with US/NATO .
    This is underlined by the apriori assumption of Russian guilt: no questions.

    Then the move on to the travesty of Russian punishment for such "crimes': a giant leap from a mere "whodunnit"... we already have the culprit in the frame and need to talk punishment. No mention of context either: that queue of unpunished international crimes by the US/ Nato waiting under the hush carpet...nor indeed of that other huge environmental crime specifically to do with this war: the Nordstream release of massive amounts of Methane gas directly into the atmosphere which counts as one of the biggest ever offenses against the planet. On that, as George Galloway points out, where was Greta with the whodunnit ? the condemnation? the certainties? the calls for punishment?
    Greta Thunberg News (don't know is she controls this) does mention it and links an article where it tells us: " the Nord Stream gas pipelines under the Baltic Sea sprung massive leaks this week, spewing out tons of methane into the water and atmosphere"

    Get that? Soft-soap of the century: it kinda just, emmm...sort-off "..sprung massive leaks"
    -The unavoidable discussion of some kind of culpability in the body text roughly "springs" about as far as Russia.

    I've always been somewhat suspicious of the Greta thing: its nothing to do with her specifically: just a general aversion to cheap manipulation of which the lowest level is the use of children, cats and dogs to get people onside for any cause and the above makes me feel somewhat vindicated in being cruelly suspicious.

    The Greens in Scotland, UK... Europe, well it didn't take them all long to get in line with the establishment over Ukraine and show themselves to be empty coats or utter hypocrites: it's somewhat shocking to see these earth-loving environmental women: the proposed models and spokespeople for the new age, bursting forth from the dry green chrysalis metamorphosed like Annalena Baerbock, into the most toxic Warmonger butterflies of all.
