Yeah this is very good.
I think the US/NATO had been provoking Russia for years with talk about Georgia and Ukraine joining NATO or the EU. I seriously doubt Ukraine or Georgia would have ever been given membership anyway but they of course should be able to express that wish without fear of being fucking invaded.But it’s almost like the US/NATO didn’t really take Putins threats seriously or understand how important it was to him that Georgia and Ukraine weren’t to join NATO.
Putin has absolutely fucked it. I’m really amazed that it’s been so miscalculated. That not one person in the Kremlin could stand up and tell him what fucking bad idea this is. Now he has to try save face in anyway possible but the damage has already been done. Damage that will realistically take decades to fix.
I really hope for massive political change in Russia but it’s not going to come for at least a couple of generations.

Listened to many, many hours of this guy’s in depth history of the Isreal-Palestine situation. He’s done a one-off on Ukraine. A well researched run down with a very different slant to the mass media story. This has probably all been covered here but interesting none the less.
