Thanks to a hint here a few days ago (sorry, can't find it anymore with reasonable effort to credit the person posting it), I watched Ukraine on Fire from Oliver Stone. As I found it quite interesting and insightful, I decided to give The Putin Interviews (also from Oliver Stone) a shot too.

Both well worth watching IMO.

That said, I think Putin is not the dumb infantile emperor the western media paints him as. The NYT article that d_eddie posted a few days ago is a speculation that would fit the picture I got from the above Stone documentaries much better.

I just finished watching Ukraine On Fire.... Wow!.. Just confirms how little I know about the conflict, hence, the reason i have no input into the matter!...

It still amazes me how we are all so inter-connected, yet so far apart! You think with the modern technology and speed of communication, it would be impossible for someone/people to control the narrative, yet i am seeing it! and people are buying into it!

It does make you think how shielded you really are from macro events...You have to be in the upper echelon to really appreciate the master plan in play... so much questions, but is it a rabbit whole i really want to take? I know it can lead to some really dark places!

Anyhow, trying to find The Putin Interview...
