Candace Owens Slams Zelensky as ‘Fraud’ After Missile Hits Poland

Conservative pundit Candace Owens has denounced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as a “fraud” following reports that a missile fired from his country killed two people in Poland.

In a series of tweets on Wednesday, Owens called the Ukrainian president a “dirtbag actor” and accused him of “trying to start World War 3” by attempting to pin blame for the missile strike on Russia. International concerns that the incident could force NATO to intervene in the Russia-Ukraine war emerged after initial reports suggested the missile that hit the Polish village of Przewodow on Tuesday might have come from the Russian military.

While the missile was identified as Russian-made, U.S., Polish and NATO officials have since dismissed the notion that the weapon was launched from Russia. They have instead suggested that the missile was likely fired by Ukrainian forces, albeit inadvertently. Owens claimed, without evidence, that the incident was an intentional attempt by Zelensky to launch a “false flag” attack that would force NATO into the war.

“Zelensky attempted to start World War 3 yesterday by intentionally misleading the public,” Owens tweeted. “He is a dirtbag actor who has been falsely trumpeted as heroic throughout western propagandist networks. Ukrainian, Russian & American citizens are all suffering the consequences of lies.”

“Ukraine is an intelligence operation full stop, hence the Operation Mockingbird level of support for Zelensky,” she continued, referring to a supposed Cold War-era CIA program that is frequently referenced by QAnon conspiracy theorists. “Yesterday was an attempted false flag that fell a part only because of citizen journalists identifying the aircraft. This is why they want to control the internet.”

Owens also insisted that she rejected a “false dichotomy presented by the Western press” and was neither “Pro-Putin [nor] Pro-Zelensky.” However, she did refer to Zelensky as a “piece of s***” supported by “cowards in the media.”

“At least Putin doesn’t pretend to be a good person,” Owens tweeted. “Zelensky does, while robbing the American people and attempting to start WW3.”

Martin comments: While Newsweek is apparently aghast at Owens’s outrageous comments, I think this woman has the “right stuff”. At least she’s not afraid to make her opinions heard and clearly not cowed by the “cancel culture”. Also noteworthy that her comments appear on the new Musk-owned version of Twitter. Good to see that Conservative voices are returning to this Social Media platform!
