nortex... how many of these sites were your sources?
Russia Used a Fake Investor to Dupe Influencers, US Says (msn.com)
None of them. I mean, I will link to RT when it has an interesting angle, but I think that is…pretty clear for what it is, and only a handful have been confused by that over the years of this war. I'd never even heard of "Tenet Media.". I noted on the main thread about the latest Russia Russia Russia hoax that the folks targeted were generally anti-Trump, for some reason. That's who Blaze media fired. Heck, I've linked to Tass and Ukrainian Pravda too quite a few times. I don't mean to be rude, but if you only want news sources that support your position/views 100 percent of the time…I'm probably not the person to ask.
For instance, we don't get a lot of coverage in approved sites of admissions like this from
Syrsky:
Quote:
Ukraine is sending fresh troops with only limited training to the conflict front line, Kiev's top general, Aleksandr Syrsky, has acknowledged. He made the comment as his troops struggle to contain Russian advances in Donbass.
In a rare interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour on Thursday, Syrsky confirmed media reports about Ukraine's ongoing manpower problems despite the government's recent push to boost mobilization.
While stressing that Kiev "wants the level of training to be the best" and is trying to pursue programs aimed at fostering highly qualified professional military personnel, the general admitted that "the dynamics at the front require us to put conscripted servicemen into service as soon as possible."
According to Syrsky, who replaced his predecessor, Valery Zaluzhny, in February, new recruits receive one month of basic military training and two to four weeks of specialized training before deployment. However, reservists usually have previous army experience.
I'm sure if I rooted around I could find the full puff piece on CNN (btw Amanpour has never sat down with a dictator she didn't fawn over), but it's not worth it to me. In truth, Garland's show is just part of the State Department's (and CIA) long-term program to censor what Americans see/hear. As is the situation in Brazil (about which the State Department has said not a word):
Despite what my fan club will say about me here/elsewhere, I am not a particular fan of Putin himself (though I think the 'unprovoked' insanity is laughable at best), but I do not buy the narrative about Ukraine/Zelensky being the good guys/victims here, at all. The link/accusation Garland really was making is just Russia Hoax 3.0:
I've seen some pretty nasty videos of Ukrainians who released Russian prisoners to be chased by an explosive drone on foot today, and it is too disgusting to link to. They're also somehow still proudly looting that one grocery store in Sudzha, on camera. Lovely people.
