EDITOR:

The Daily Press is buying opinion page articles full of falsehood.

The article I’m going to reference to was published April 29th 2023, written by Andrew P. Napolitano, who I believe is a Russian sympathizer if not an agent. I say this, because anyone with a college education would know that these statements he wrote are false, Such as:

1. Biden is fighting an undeclared war against Russia. False. Ukraine is fighting a war against Russia, started by Russia.

2.A war Biden’s military believes is un-winnable. (That’s because we are not fighting a war against Russia.)

3. “American boys in Ukraine are firing American ammunition at Russian boys” what world is this guy living in?

4.The U.S. was unable to defeat a ragtag gaggle of herdsmen in 20 years, and it is challenging the mightiest army on earth. This is a statement I cannot comprehend an American making. Ukraine is holding their own against Russia. (The mightiest military in the world.).

5. For empire it (U.S.) engineered a coup in Ukraine in 2014. False, people in Ukraine got tired of corrupted officials backed by Russia.

6. For empire (U.S.) kills in Ukraine in 2023. Bold face lie, printed as a statement not an opinion.

7. Non-defensive killing defies the natural law, which teaches that non-defensive violence is illicit because every person – American or not enjoys the inviolable right to live.

In my opinion, only a Russian, Russian sympathizer or agent, would accuse the U.S. of doing this in Ukraine, when the whole world knows, Russia invaded Ukraine. That Russia is raping women and girls, torturing and killing, for an empire. No American writer would write this and no American editor would pay money to print this, unless, in my opinion, they were Russian operatives.

Can someone explain to me how a publisher, an editor, and a writer, who all depend on a free press, could write and print this Russian propaganda?
