  1. This interview is (unfortunately for some ) the closes view point we will get to the truth, to date!!! If you don’t find this to be true , you must ask yourself: ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ -have I sufficiently researched and understood the point of view I have. -Are there enough credible sources that back up these view points. -Have I experienced enough exposure and integration in to other parts of the wide world. -Have I seen with my own eyes , how the other countries look, operate, behave and survive. -Can I say without a doubt, that what I believe, is the one truth and the only truth. -And why is there a polar opposite opinion between me and other people? -and why do they so brutally defend their opinion to which I can see no truth . Propaganda is a dangerous weapon. We should NEVER rely on our public media for the truth .

  2. I fell asleep with my headphones 🎧 on listening to another report but woke up to this video playing almost 1hour in. I listened to it already the day it came out months ago . I was shocked at the accuracy of plain and obvious truth that Kotkin was taking about and predicting. Mearshiemer was the 1st person I listened too when the war started this year and at 1st I felt it was pretty convincing, but as I learned more about the history and background of USA, EU , NATO, RUSSIA, Ukraine, Finland , Georgia, Turkey, dating back as far as 500BC ….. I lost respect for Mearsheimer’s view of the world. It’s almost a ….“propagandistic version of the truth”. Almost justifies the horrible crimes committed by various leaders around the world. Kotkin’s version was far more realistic and resonates far more with logic and common sense. History is so important to understand a regime and culture of a civilisation. Changing the narrative or truth of history in minds of a population should be a criminal act. It allows individuals in power to make the same mistakes time and time again. Thank you 🙏 Lex for bringing these interviews to our ears 👂. ✊🏻
