New York Times promotes war hysteria over Estonia
2 November 2016
Ever since the 2014 US-orchestrated and fascist-spearheaded coup in Ukraine, the New York Times has distinguished itself as the principal anti-Russian propaganda organ of the US government, demonizing Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin for everything from the death toll inflicted in Washington’s war for regime change in Syria to the political rise of Donald Trump.
In its November 1 edition, the Times continued this anti-Russian campaign with a news feature entitled “Wary of Russia’s Ambitions, Estonia Prepares a Nation of Insurgents.” The article touts the exploits of a paramilitary formation in the tiny former Soviet Baltic republic, which is now a member of NATO, located barely 85 miles from St. Petersburg.
