A scam that kills

It appears to me that the Ukrainian oligarchy scammed the Russian oligarchy into believing that there is a fascist regime on the rise next to their borders.  Likely the Russian oligarchy was all too happy to take the bate that fed their imperial ambitions.  And most definitely nobody expected the war to be so long and deadly.  The result of this is massive loss of life on both sides of the border.  It's time to stop this murderous run away train - tell your the ones holding the power in your region to act!
