Antiwar.com serves as a hub for those voices from all parts of the political spectrum. <a href=\"https:\/\/antiwar.com\/donate\/\">We need your support to keep this project going.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: medium;\">The warmongers are in charge in Washington DC: the US rejected the idea of a ceasefire in Ukraine ahead of the Ukrainian counteroffensive that is playing out now. If you read Antiwar.com, you knew that in the lead-up to the counteroffensive, the US did not think the Ukrainians could regain much territory. We pointed this out with the leaks from Discord and media reports at the time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #b30000;\"><b><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: xx-large;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: medium;\"><i><a href=\"https:\/\/antiwar.com\/donate\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/antiwar.com\/aapledge\/antiwar_donate_160a.gif\" width=\"160\" height=\"153\" align=\"right\" border=\"0\" hspace=\"15\" vspace=\"7\" \/><\/a><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: medium;\">Despite the reality on the ground, the Biden administration pushed for the counteroffensive anyway. Now it\u2019s clear the assault is failing, and that an untold number of Ukrainians are losing their limbs or even lives. The US has also sought to remedy Ukraine\u2019s ammunition shortages by sending widely banned cluster bombs, which leave behind small unexploded submunitions that will kill and maim Ukrainian civilians for decades to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: medium;\">In the first days of the war, the White House called the use of cluster bombs in Ukraine a &#8220;potential war crime.&#8221; The White House was right. Now the White House is facilitating war crimes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: medium;\">These facts dispel the myth that the US and NATO care about Ukrainians and make clear that the purpose of Western intervention in the war is to &#8220;weaken&#8221; Russia by using Ukrainians as cannon fodder. It\u2019s difficult to keep track of these facts in the face of so much war propaganda, which is why Antiwar.com is as important as ever.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: medium;\">We have stepped up our coverage over the past year, and our reach is growing.
