We need global democracy and human rights. The alternative is an amoral nothing.

America needs to meet Putin by injecting some Limonov into our politics - Trump has been doing this toward the right - I have been pulling in the opposite direction.

Yes, Putin centering Russian politics around himself over the course of the last 15 years sure is the fault of Obama and Amerikkka.

The end of the USSR and the economic suffering that followed set the stage for Putin reconstituting Czarism. The USA's foreign policy appartus never stopped fighting the Cold War and here we are.

As an outsider to the American right, what has Trump's talk/policy on Russia been? Kill them all or respect for another Stronk Man?

Literally 'I will shake hands and make deals with Putin' with beltway people desperately trying to tell Americans this would be the end of the world.

Slow burn wars are good business for oil, arms, and drugs.

American politics.

Global politics - you should have a vote in the process. The wallet, the ballot, and the bullet are the three options an individual on planet earth has.

Well, they haven't been enough to help oil all that much in the last year or so. :v:

Too many players on the market. Daesh selling oil is like the Chinese banana cart stock trader.

The Russian Army is transporting anti-air defense systems using stolen trucks.

It's happened before - didn't Daesh get a truck with a Texas business registration / decals?

The black market provides.

The US Federal Government has built cases with illegal evidence gathering - its called 'parallel construction'. This is why former prosecutor Chris Christie is a big NSA fan.

I was going to pass this up, but it too good good not to be translated, since the closest most Americans would get to seeing how propaganda works is Fox news, which is grade-school level at best by Russian standards, and therefore have no real understanding of how propaganda works. Here, an opinions journalist is being asked to comment how the recent (Jan 2016) ruling on the Litvenenko case directly implicating Putin in the murder would affect Putin's popularity in Russia, but it is easily applicable to Bellingcat's reports, etc.

It didn't have to be this way :(

So many bad decisions since the wall came down - thanks, boomers!

ESA and Roscosmos already exist if you want to buy a rocket to put things on

Isn't ESA an umbrella organization for individual national space programs?

Forever shook

Remember the Ukraine War began around the 25 years later of 'Twin Peaks'

Dead...wrapped in plastic.

Remember the Leveson Inquiry? I knew even then the NSA surveillance was the Damocles sword just waiting to slice through the tabloids.

The Truth is Out There...
