they're recycling the Viagra rape atrocity propaganda they used on Libya the West is advancing the claim that Putin is Distributing Viagra to his soldiers so that they can more effectively rape ukrainians which was a ridiculous propaganda narrative the first time the West used it to manufacture consent for regime change in Libya in a Thursday interview with the French government-owned news agency AFP a mauritian British official
from the United Nations named pramila Patton claimed that Russia has a military strategy of mass rape in Ukraine and that Russian soldiers are being equipped with the erectile dysfunction medication Viagra in order to facilitate that military strategy when you hear women testify about Russian soldiers equipped with Viagra it's clearly a military strategy Patton said because AFP is one of the major propaganda multipliers whose material is
republished by news media outlets around the world Patton's completely unevidenced claim of weaponized Viagra has been uncritically reported as a real news story by Outlets like CNN the New York Post Forbes the independent the hill and Yahoo news this claim will now be folded into many Rank and file mainstream news consumers understanding of what is happening in Ukraine despite its brazenly propagandistic nature the only other
time the West has been hammered with a story about marauding viagra-armed rape brigades like this was in 2011. when the Western Empire was circulating atrocity propaganda to manufacture consent for regime change interventionism in Libya in March of that year an email later published by Wikileaks was sent to then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by her private adviser Sydney Blumenthal informing her of an unconfirmed rumor that
Libya's longtime leader Muammar Gaddafi has adopted a rape policy and has even distributed Viagra to troops Blumenthal notes that this claim originated from the rebel side of the conflict which we now know included Al-Qaeda whom Gaddafi had been fighting the following month that rumor was repeated before the UN National Security Council by Susan Rice another Obama administration official this time presented not as a rumor but
as a reality although Anonymous U.S military intelligence officials informed the press the very next day that they had no evidence of Rice's claim by June an international criminal court investigation was underway with Western news media continuing to uncritically report claims of weaponized Viagra in Libya meanwhile another U.N human rights investigator named Sharif Bas Yuni said he'd found those allegations to have Arisen from quote Mass hysteria
and that both sides of the conflict had been making them about the other Amnesty International failed to turn up any evidence of mass rapes and weaponized Viagra in Libya and a 2016 report by the British Parliament found that the false humanitarian intervention by NATO forces which resulted in Gaddafi's death had in fact been based on lies this information came far too little far too late the
case was made for intervention and Libya was plunged into chaos and humanitarian catastrophe by the Western Empire in its jihadist proxies on the ground putting a final nail in the coffin of the claim that NATO is a defensive Alliance of course we cannot conclusively prove that Putin isn't giving his soldiers sex drugs to help them rape ukrainians more efficiently we cannot conclusively prove that Ukrainian spies
aren't sneaking across the border and injecting Russian babies with HIV either but we don't treat bizarre nonsensical and completely unevidenced claims as true just because they cannot be definitively proven false especially when those exact claims have been used to advance depraved agendas in the past in instances that remain completely unevidenced earlier this year the Western media were uncritically publishing claims made by a single official in
the Ukrainian government that Russian soldiers were running around raping Ukrainian babies and children despite the fact that those claims had no evidence and were also accompanied by demands for more Western military assistance weeks later that very same official was fired by the Ukrainian Parliament for among other things circulating unevidenced claims about rapes by Russian soldiers as we've discussed previously the US and its proxies have an
extensive history of using atrocity propaganda for example in the infamous taking babies from incubators narrative that was circulated in the 1990 false naira testimony which helped manufacture consent for the Gulf War atrocity propaganda has been in use for a very long time due to how effectively it can be at getting populations mobilized against targeted enemies from the Middle Ages when Jews were accused of kidnapping Christian
children to kill them and drink their blood to 17th century claims that the Irish were killing English children and throwing them into the sea to World War one claims that Germans were mutilating and eating Belgian babies Western mass media are proving time and time again that there is no accusation against Russia that they will not promote as factual news reporting no matter how evidence-free and ridiculous
the fact that they're going to the well in recycling old atrocity propaganda illustrates this even more lucidly if we were being told the truth about this war we wouldn't be hammered with blatant atrocity propaganda by so-called news outlets we wouldn't be subjected to ever escalating censorship of voices who criticize the Western Empire's role in this war we wouldn't be swarmed by Pro NATO online trolling operations
