Yup. Point is, it sounds ridiculous for Putin to send saboteurs to Ukraine to create a pretext for him to launch a major military operation. But plausibility to you is not the point. This is one way that dictators start war. And Putin doesn't care if you think it makes sense. — PolitiTweet.org

Word. Also, folks, remember that when Hitler attacked Poland in 1939, he had the SS stage a series of attack on German positions by way of justifying it. It was called the Gleiwitz Incident: https://t.co/bhz2M2JWVg — PolitiTweet.org

@jbadomics yes and no. The Soviets were much more keen to be believed than Putin is. Yes, they did the bald-faced lie thing regularly, but they were also fighting an ideological battle and it was very important to them to be taken seriously intellectually around the world. — PolitiTweet.org

The insistent assertion of falsehood as truth is a form of domination. That's all I got. — PolitiTweet.org

And it's a big through-line of a lot of aggressive Russian actions with respect to neighbors and other countries. Murdering dissidents with chemical weapons? Just deny it. Doesn't matter if everyone knows you're lying. Interfering in US elections? Fuck it. Just lie about it. — PolitiTweet.org

@anneapplebaum has been pointing this out for years. It's a VERY important element of Russia's information strategy. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
...one has to either (a) confront a problem under international rules and norms (b) or simply lie about what happened. Putin's innovation is that he has realized that it matters not at all if the lie is credible or even plausible. As long as you say it, it works. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
This is important: The purpose of a lot of Russian disinformation/lies is NOT to fool anyone but to act with impunity in violating the rules without purporting to change the rules. Under international law, wars of aggression are illegal. If one means to launch one... — PolitiTweet.org

@pennbarker @brithume Correct. If we define history according to the charges brought against individuals, all unsolved crimes are fiction, mere legend. — PolitiTweet.org
Russian Embassy in USA @benjaminwittes
@pennbarker @brithume But still, consider: Thousands of lynchings never happened. All unsolved crimes everywhere...by virtue of their being unsolved, the crimes themselves never happened. Hitler committed no war crimes. It's a great historical methodology! — PolitiTweet.org
