Itโ€™s out! The truth is spoken by the West:

Itโ€™s not about the people of Ukraine!

The leaders of โ€˜Utopiaโ€™ confessed

(Though anyone possessing half a brain,

Who has the sense to get out of the rain,

Knows they donโ€™t care for Ukraineโ€™s sovereign rights.)

Itโ€™s all about regime change, Iโ€™ll explain:

Itโ€™s Putin who is squarely in their sights. 

It is for this their foolish proxy fights.

Putin holds back the poisoned Western tide

That sweeps across the world โ€” dimming the lights.

The West wishes to have a puppet guide

Great Holy Russia to the wrecking yards,

And Putin, Nemesis, holds all the cards.

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien

Nothing may now be believed.

A web by the spiders is weaved,

And innocent flies

Are trapped by its lies;

And neighbouring spiders deceived.

The Russians have so much to lose,

We have so much to gain!

They want out help โ€” do not refuse!

Destabilize Ukraine!

Donโ€™t let the Russian speakers choose;

We need her fields of grain!

So with the West, Ukraine must fuse โ€”

(So thinks the German brain).

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien
