Because in Russia they are not allowed to function as human beings.
So how come he's given respectful airtime on RTE News? Do the producers there not vet the 'experts' they pull in to give their opinions? Maybe he was introduced as such, I didn't hear the start. But the tone of the interview portrayed him as a Irish military/ diplomatic expert in the field.
Yeah this one is amazing also. Wasn’t looking forward to it because of the lack of music/narration but found it hypnotic. The episodes are on YouTube.
Well I would not exactly call gold velour adidas tracksuits great even if you have money 😁
They do want to better themselves, they for example bettered themselves by acquiring the world cup in 2018, money talks in Russia, the more money you have the better you are
I've been looking for it online since it came out but I can't watch it without a VPN on BBC iPlayer. I don't have TV channels either so no BBC.
edit: Just found it nice one. I have all of Adam Curtis docs on my hard drive he's brilliant.

Check out the documentary TraumaZone if you want to Russian corruption in action… it’s only 7 hours long
This is the shite he retweets. Another useful idiot.
The explanation of why the US voted against it. It's worrying how many countries took it at face value and couldn't be bothered to investigate the draft especially when it was the Russians that tabled it.
More accurately "некультурный"
That's a valid point to be honest.
Russian society is utterly corrupt from top to bottom. I can't see any hope for them at all because they have no interest in bettering themselves.
Doesn't seem to be any physical evidence of a second missile. I was expecting in daylight the following day they would have found the second one's impact site.
Maybe people seen the initial explosion followed by hearing the sonic boom and assumed it must have been 2 explosions, therefore assumed 2 missiles?
That first part was very good. Especially about that convoy ran out of petrol because their own soldiers sold it all. Corruption may have saved Kiev.
Or it could be that both the US and Ukraine are both correct.
Original reports stated there were 2 missiles.
You do know that there 2 missiles, even if it was a Ukrainian s300 that landed in Poland, obviously it was shooting down another one. And that other one was prob launched from Belarus but landed in Ukraine (note: i dont know if it landed in Ukraine or Poland, but for some reasons lately USA, nato and Poland only talk about one missile when it was claimed at first that there were 2 and thats something for the conspiracy theorists. Why did they stop talking about another one and dont want Ukrainians to examine the site??)
Id imagine its lost in translation and they only have fire control over one side and complete control over the other
banks? Does that mean that they are confirmed to have control over the Eastern/Southern bank now?
RTE Six One had a professor on from DCU this evening challenging this narrative, saying Ireland is not being hawkish and is simply trying to be "on the right side of history".
Sounds like if both NATO and Ukraine shared their radar tracks, they could clear up the confusion right away.
Substation was damaged as result of shelling in Belgorod district
A NATO plane flying over Poland at the time reportedly tracked the missile. If so, they'll have data as to it's trajectory.
I think the only confirmed details was it was a Russian (Soviet) built missile built in the 1970's.
Which doesn't clear anything up. Both Russian and Ukrainian positions have been overrun and missiles could have changed hands etc...
Ukraine have stated they have radar tracks of a Russian launched missile (I presume they show it entering Poland)
The NATO evidence, I'm not sure, I may have missed what they presented (although it's still being investigated)
If they have the radar tracks (physical missile means jack) they can tell Ukraine it was launched from xyz location in Ukraine etc...
It would not have to, everyone would get out of its way.....😂
How come that that point was missed. Even if the missile had Ukr markings that does not mean that it was fired by Ukr. And for that matter the Russians could have got the shell/ other bits of an S- 300 that Ukr fired into Ru held areas and banged it together as a missile and fired it. So when it exploded it would be very challenging to establish if it was original or a repurposed one
so maybe Zalensky has been right all along. I wonder did NATO check with The Ukr missile firing generals to get their side of the story
Proof for that ?
The S-300 is being used by Russia by all accounts. How have then then figured out it was a Ukrainian one ?
https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/what-we-know-about-missile-blast-poland-2022-11-16/
"Russia has appeared to use repurposed S-300 missiles to strike ground targets during the war in Ukraine - a sign of potentially dwindling missile supplies, military analysts say."
"Russia has deployed S-300 missiles in Syria and stationed them on the peninsula of Crimea, which Moscow annexed from Ukraine in 2014."
...except that both US, Poland and even NATO general all acknowledged it was a Ukrainian S300??
ergo it originated in Ukraine?
General staff of armed forces of Ukraine: with control of river Dnipro banks Ukrainian artillery have fire control over territories near occupied Crimea
I posted this 2 days ago. If it was s300 with the range of 300kms, there are no russian occupied territories there, the only option it came from Belarus. See attached
