Maybe the number is exaggerated. Maybe it isn’t. But even if it is inflated, the truth is already catastrophic. The losses are beyond imagining.&#xA;&#xA;And here is the brutal fact: responsibility does not rest only with politicians and generals. It belongs just as much to the intellectuals, journalists, artists, and musicians who pounded the drums of war. Those who shouted for total victory, who promised the impossible, who wrote war anthems instead of questioning the madness.&#xA;&#xA;From the very beginning, there were only a handful—like Roger Waters—who had the courage to say what was obvious: force both sides to sit down and negotiate peace. They were ridiculed, silenced, dismissed as traitors. In countries like Poland, where Russophobia was turned into a civic religion, the cultural class chose to outdo itself in hysteria, preaching escalation, glorifying bloodshed, and mocking the very idea of diplomacy.&#xA;&#xA;They didn’t order the mobilizations. They didn’t sign the death lists. But they gave this war its soundtrack, its slogans, its false hope of victory. And for that, they share in the blood. It was reckless, it was cowardly, and it will remain their shame.</html></oembed>
