It's obviously intended for the domestic Russian market, but doesn't it strike you that the Kremlin (or whoever signs off this stuff), must have an extraordinarily low opinion of Russians. They surely wouldn't feed them this utter nonsense unless they actually thought it would work.

Zelensky now advising that our wonderful new government are now dragging their heels in handing over further supplies, Smarmer is denying it probably wants to use it against the rioters

Yes, they treat them like brainless puppets that can't think for themselves.

Sadly, a high percentage of them are happy to play this role, as it's far easier than thinking anything different.

Congratulations.
Going from ‘dragging of feet’ to Starmer using missiles etc on rioters! You may claim it’s a ‘joke’ but using ‘smarmer’ is a bit of a give away. On the upside you could get a job with the mail or the express….

I may have posted this before sometime in last 2 1/2 years, but just watched again and blown away again, by the accuracy and description.

It's Dzhokhar Dudayev the then leader of Chechnya, talking in 1994 with stunning clarity, 2 years before Russia assassinated him in 1996.

Unfortunately the West got sucked in by them, all that easy gas & oil. Thieves like Abramamovic & his mates got super rich & we sucked up to them letting them live here tax free. We kidded ourselves Russia had changed but they hadn't, they just played the long game until countries like Germany were in hock to them. Even after Putin started changing the law so he could continue as President alarm bells didn't ring. Their actions in Chechnya & Georgia were a long way away so we let them get on with it, the same in Syria. He's right about the Russian people & the way most seem happy to accept the lies they are told.

I've not seen that before. It's 30 years old but probably the most powerful clip I've seen in the time I've been on here. Perhaps it is powerful because we can all see that he was quite right. The fact that Russia assassinated him in 1996, only adds to the impact.

Does anyone have quite as high an opinion of Britain in 2024 as Russian propagandists? Like even the most patriotic Brits must be thinking “wow…bit much”.

Remarkable video. I remember his being on the news but it's the first time I've seen that video.
The responses are worth reading too, and this one especially IMO:
"This level of understanding and insight into Russian minds was a true gift to the world. Sadly most ignored and carried on growing their ties with Russia..."
