An insight from Russian TV on how "well" the war is going.

To me Skabeyeva, the host, is a Putin lacky through and through who doesn't like hearing the truth and wants to stick to the party line. She does not like hearing the real truth and continuously pushed the party line and rhetoric.

The Colonel was well spoken and no one else interrupted them on his view which is unusual on Russian State TV, which means that this is probably a Russian propaganda exercise to soften the population up for bad news that the war is not all going so well.
It is not a propaganda broadcast, I am sure that he/they would have lost the "feed" or microphone fault and he would have been quietly taken off air.

The audience for this show is the educated elite so it seems that the effect of Ukraine's fighting fervour a d the isolation of Russia by the west may finally be taking it's toll on those in authority, other than Putin, and they may be seeking an honourable getout mechanism.

I am sure I saw something from this Colonel at or before the start of the invasion where he intimated that it was a foolhardy and stupid plan.

If it is not a propaganda exercise I think the Colonel, may be the subject of an "accident".

Hope that it is an exercise in seeking a way out. Must be a lot of unrest amongst the elite Russians.

=; Visiting Pete Williamson the other day, we had lengthy discussions about the :crusader: Ukraine - Russian War
and decided we needed to check out a bit more of the actual history behind their tenuous relationship... :viking:

:happy: I whole-heartedly recommend these short videos :tv: below for anybody who wants a clearer
understanding and to get inside the Ukrainian, and [-X more importantly, the Russian mind-set... :crazy:

=; I guarantee you'll learn heaps :omg1: that you weren't previously aware of, as we did... :-k

:type: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDN-DtJMs4Y :blues: .......... :type: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK-yJD_fAtk :dark:
:omg1: :left: Pre-invasion, 21/2/2022 from :heart: WION... :happy:

If mankind came 'out of Africa' :tomtom: then Russia certainly 'came out of Ukraine'..! :omg1:

:-k Sad to hear of Ray Liotta's passing... :sleep1: I was a fan since I first saw
those threatening/ menacing eyes in "Unlawful Entry"... :police:
:type: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eO7wriqxsDQ :omg1: :faaaarrk:


=; It may have had more meaning for me after attempting to deal with a
Melbourne Highway Patrol cop who started stalking my ex-wife, after she
batted her eyelids once two often to get out of a speeding ticket...
:evil3:
...but that's another story... [-(

:-k Not sure if the Vouchers :evil3: put out by Service NSW to encourage hospitality/ retail engagement during Covid sign had similar offers in other states, but suffice to say,
I've just realised that my 3 x unused 'Discover NSW' vouchers :evil3: :evil3: :evil3: are due to EXPIRE (phuuttt..!) :shit: at the end of June, i.e. in two week's time... :bugger:

In a mad dash, looking for opportunities to use them before I loose them, I've settled on 3 'BIG SCREEN' experiences at the Tuggerah Event Cinemas...


First up is Top Gun - Maverick, of course... :plane: (Hey, it's the only plane we've got, O.K.?)
:type: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNtJ4HdMavo :yess:



Then the long awaited next chapter in the MINIONS Franchise, from June 23rd...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hwtha3ipOnU :bob dark: :bob dark:



Hmmmm... :-k I dunno, maybe Jurassic World Dominion (...for the special effects...) :happy:
