Очень крутой еще один фильм !!!!❤
we like and thank frontline so much you maga`s defunded it. regular americans will come down south and even the score!
So what's your take on Putin and his regime?
I'm robbed, obstructed from reporting, held cyber captive, subjected to terror capitalism, have been chemical attacked repeatedly, there's a campaign abusing the Internet and social media to get millions of people who know or don't know me to hate me, knowingly lie to support an imposter abusing my ID and falsely claiming my intellectual property, falsify my medical records as the imposter carries out massive health insurance fraud, but insurance doesn't even care, and deny me opportunities. I'm not sure the origin. I think it might be a big mish mash of multiple nation states vying for supremacy at the dawn of the Cyber Age. I'm just a regular person not in charge of anything. It's so weird.
Vengeful is the prefect word for the rg
Lil dick Russia always got to measure 😂😂😂
This is what Trump wants in America, "State TV" just like Russia and North Korea, bow down and praise the dear leader "OR Else" you will have a bad accident from a 20-story building.
Shocking sad But amazing documentary 💯
This might've been the most boring doc I've seen from you guys. There isn't much happening in this one. We're just being told to respect what these guys are doing. Cool, I guess.
Austria is now interested in joining NATO.
Putin is a modern day Hitler….same personality traits, same methods, same goals. The West recognizes clearly, his land grab in Ukraine must be stopped, and Europe has woken up to this fact. More and more nations are joining NATO, recognizing his designs on Europe. The principal strategy to be employed to stop Putin is to eliminate their oil production capacity, bankrupting Russia, through use of medium and long range missiles built by Ukraine. Russia is no Soviet Union, and the warmonger nation is under severe financial duress at present.
Almost unwatchable. Geeezus…. Guys a walking victim card
How do you know when its made up or not?
Wow 1:07:39

Dumb animals. Once again Russia is a stinking mess of murder, backwards government, and the people suffer the consequences. The Russian people have been in this situation many times since 1917. What element drives Russians to give power to the worst possible leadership? Somehow they must find a way to prevent the stalins and putins from taking power then keeping it for decades. From what little I understand of the Russian people I get the feeling they have a Boss complex. I mean they just need to call someone the boss who makes all the decisions and has all power cuz it fits with their lives. Business, politics, and cultural identity must have a boss mentality to function. When Lennon was the boss it may have been good but Putin is terrible yet he is the “boss” so he can do no wrong cuz his place stabilizes the soul of the country.
This should've been edited down to 45 minutes
You are so wrong about Russia and Putin!
