I think they both are partially true. I still remember the lies that has been told when Russia invaded Georgia and everyone in the news were saying that Russia started it when there was enough evidence that georgia threw the first stone.

"We were standing on the edges
Of a thousand burning bridges
Sifting through the ashes every day
What we thought would never end
Now is nothing more than a memory
The way things were before
I lost my way" - OCMS
