  • Thanks for the smartest comment here ✌

    You know for many cultures 100yo is not so old.

    I would probably disagree with you on the last point, except for Julian Assange’s work.

    Anyway posting my comment was interesting, I can feel the effect of propaganda (not on you I think). I thought that in the age of the internet people would develop their critical thinking more. But people are as conditioned as in the last world wars. A manichean vision of the world.

    Geopolitics is about complexity in my opinion.







  • Was not talking about Russia. You missed the point.

    Geopolitically, those both situations are totally differents.

    But I have to admit that this shows some similarities with 2003 USA invasion of Iraq 😅.

    The U.S. invasion of Iraq was the most widely and closely reported war in military history. Television network coverage was largely pro-war and viewers were six times more likely to see a pro-war source as one who was anti-war. The New York Times ran a number of articles describing Saddam Hussein’s attempts to build weapons of mass destruction. The 8 September 2002 article titled “U.S. Says Hussein Intensifies Quest for A-Bomb Parts” would be discredited, leading The New York Times to issue a public statement admitting it was not as rigorous as it should have been.
