Moscow Condemns US Aggression, Forgetting Its Own Playbook
RT reports that Moscow is condemning alleged US 'aggression' against Venezuela, specifically regarding claims about Nicolas Maduro's whereabouts. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called it 'information terrorism.' A bold statement, given that Russia's own foreign policy history is replete with similar 'interferences'—from Ukraine to Syria. The hypocrisy is so thick you could cut it
with a propaganda spoon. The irony is not lost on anyone paying attention: Russia, which actively propagates disinformation and has, according to numerous investigative reports (e.g., Bellingcat), engaged in shadow campaigns to destabilize sovereign nations, now points fingers at Washington. It's a classic case of selective outrage, where 'aggression' is only condemnable when it's not *their*
aggression. One wonders how many times Russia has championed 'sovereignty' while simultaneously violating it. (Spoiler: too many to count.)
