Russell ‘Texas’ Bentley: Russia Must End NATO Aggression in Ukraine Sooner Than Later
Russell Bentley is a former US soldier who has been living in the Donbass since 2014 fighting against the NATO-backed Kiev regime.
He claims that NATO troops are on the ground as mercenaries, shelling the Donbass region which is now part of the Russian Federation. He testifies that the NATO-sponsored aggression and war crimes have been going on for more than eight years since the CIA-backed coup in Kiev in 2014. NATO provoked the current war against Russia, says Bentley.
He believes Russia has the military power to win the war, but military leaders in Moscow are not pushing for victory as decisively as they should. The result, he says, is that the conflict is being prolonged which runs the risk of spiraling into a full-on NATO-Russia war.

Russell expresses the idea that Russia isn’t fighting this was the way it should be fought. He talks of the links Russia or Russians have to western business interests – the ‘Astor’ effect of getting rich from a war both sides. He cites Russians ignoring the tactical expertise of those who have been fighting Ukraine for years. The fighters of the Donbass should be armed and equipped – they fight better than Wagner.
