The US is becoming like the Soviet Union

Yes, they have been killed, and I wouldn't deny this, but this is a separate issue. It is believed, by those who have investigated these deaths, that the journalists in question came uncomfortably close to exposing the truth about the 1999 Moscow apartment bombings and its connection with the rise of Putin back then. Vlad Putin is a horrible person, there is no doubt about that, but the situation regarding R.T. is not as it is in - for example - North Korea, where the state really does control everything that is said and done. The worst accusation that could be levelled against R.T. is that it sees everything from a Russian perspective and that it's sources are not always reliable or impartial, but this can be said about any news organisation. It's a matter of degree. Some are more truthful than others, and I have found R.T. to be more reliable than most. They actually do their research, they do not have journalists making (incredibly basic) factual errors, as most news services in the West are now notorious for.

You're welcome to your opinion, but I insist on having mine.

That's just a mixture of your own conspiracy theories and guesses. The stations in the US are the mouthpiece of the US establishment, but you watch and trust them and that's more worrying.

Yep. RT got it right about Syria while our news stations were feeding us lies and propaganda about 'the last doctor/hospital in Allepo' nonsense.

Says who?

Yes, Putin Russia and the West, as well as The Strongman.(author,- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Roxburgh) this link may be fed from the new York times,https://nypost.com/2017/12/11/putin-says-he-will-start-pulling-russian-forces-from-syria/amp/ BUT, my other link has been sourced initially from a Daily Telegraph writer back in 2012, so is this new news? No, but still valid. (If disputing journalistic media).
A Russian women magazine/writer disputed the book, because it didn't capture any of Putin's cute personality, like wanting to join the KGB and how he wanted to be a spy, to spy on other governments. She made an impact selling a book,The Man Without a Face, depicting Putin as The Godfather of The Mafia.
A woman, with a taste for Kremlinology with writer status for being anti everything in her home arena.





The gift of foresight is actually in Roxburgh's material. One I did like and recall was http://www.angusroxburgh.com/journalism ... pt_it.html
He predicted all it would take, before the referendum that if Scotland voted for independence, Europe would accept Scotland as an independent nation.. no goal there for Sturgeon thus far.

With regard to the single currency there is no reason why anyone should force Scotland to give up the UK opt-out, nor any reason why Scotland should be forced to join the euro if, like Sweden, it didn’t want to.


Nothing is set in stone in the EU. It is a giant piece of putty, to be moulded to every situation. As no country has ever split while being a member, there is no precedent for the situation that will arise if Scotland votes for independence. That being the case, a tortuous overnight Brussels summit will come up with a solution, just before daybreak. That’s how it always works.

Umm... Roxburgh, might have to rewind that initiative a little, before a credible source can be argued. No one seems to mind a bit of banter, but the stirring up is all in Russia's extreme military fan base.. along with illusionist fake nationalist supremacy. A bit of banter, and you have a Tolstoy for disaster.
