About this listen
"A brilliant, remarkably concise explanation of the danger that U.S and NATO military involvement in Ukraine has created. Needs to be read and pondered by every citizen capable of thinking rationally and responsibly about American and European security." (Jack F. Matlock, Jr., U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union, 1987-1991)
According to the mainstream Western narrative, Vladimir Putin is an insatiable, Hitler-like expansionist who invaded Ukraine in an unprovoked land grab. That story is incorrect. In reality, the United States and NATO bear much of the responsibility for the Ukraine crisis. Through a series of misguided policies, Washington and its European allies placed Russia in an untenable situation for which war seemed, to Mr. Putin and his military staff, the only workable solution. In How the West Brought War to Ukraine, author Benjamin Abelow lays out the relevant history and explains how the West needlessly produced conflict, subjecting its own citizens and the rest of the world to the risk of nuclear war.
"An invaluable primer on the trends and events that produced the escalating warfare in Ukraine. Without understanding the history documented in this book, there will be no de-escalation of the US-Russian confrontation on Europe's eastern borders." (Chas Freeman, previously Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affairs)
"Abelow makes a clear and compelling case that the United States and its NATO allies—not Vladimir Putin—are the principal culprits." (John J. Mearsheimer, the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago)

Short and to the point 👉
The story starts with a question and ends with an answer. Who is responsible for the war in Ukraine?
The West, according to the author.

A must-know chain of events that led to this war.
After about two hours reading the entire book you'll discover how "informed" we were about this war. When western media highlights only one or two events in history and bases its whole current thesis and "conclusions" upon it, any lazy and/or naive person easily becomes victim to the now widespread assumptions as to what we should think and how to think about this war.
This book provides a great reference for what actually happened in the past, undoubtedly resulting in PROVOKING a war. The book is not justifying the war to be right or correct, it just mentions all the events and warnings we conveniently have chosen to ignore in order to blindly support the war funding and "aid" sent to Ukraine NOT to help or protect its people, but to keep bloodying the battlefield.

A goldmine of information untold by the MSM.
This audiobook is well worth a listen. It gives a relatively short & succinct alternative view to what we hear from western media & politicians.

One sided account
If you do not consider anything Russia has done internationally or the aggression, conflict and violence towards others than fine. The collective West is terrible, and Russia has never broken its treaties! NATO is a voluntary defence organisation, formed for the mutual defence and protection against Russia. If you not in it you get invaded by Russia.

Sreadful nonsense avoid
From the first sentence it is lies, misdirection, deliberately missing out key facts and substituting opinion for fact.
I bought it expecting to hear something new, or an alternative perspective. instead it's just the same tired, already debunked, propoganda talking points pushed by Putins russia.
it's only 1.5 hours long but save yourself the time and money and avoid this patent nonsense.

A clear exposition of an avoidable conflict
A brief and very clear account of the events leading up to the current (in 2022) conflict in Ukraine. It does not make for happy listening.

One that everyone should read
A lot of the info in this book I knew from the tiny tiny free press newspapers that still exist in the UK. It was interesting to have the timeline of events before the war extended. There are many critical US policies analysed that were new to me which really put the whole war in better perspective. The Ukraine war is very dangerous for the world and, is on the edge of escalating. We should all be lobbying our politicians to force negotiations before it is too late. This book gives us the facts to do so. This book is a well researched fair analysis of the Ukraine war.

Interesting Insight
Thought provoking. Remember, there are always two sides to every story. Easy to follow despite the political nature.
