Right about the long and rambling. No apologies - it was a place and time.
We knew nothing about the biolabs at the time. I wrote about them in the last couple of weeks. Couldn't find Russia's 310 page complaint to the UN. There is certainly some substance. The labs were real, taken over from the USSR and certainly integrated with other US investigations. Have to wait to see what Russia has to say, but if it was a bombshell I think we would know already.
The biolabs gets some coverage in https://sashalatypova.substack.com/p/discussion-with-sam-dube-and-lara. Regardless of that red herring, much of your review comports with my study from afar that the CIA, US ,etc involvement in Maidan was a coincidence that the US simply took advantage of an organic movement. I think the various outlets like Tucker are simply wrong and your rebuttal to Cohen simply affirms that he was immersed in the same propaganda.
Sure Zelensky is likely corrupt as are his boss oligarchs. But the Ukraine people are dying "for him". Of course, they are dying for their homes but if Zelensky is moving heaven and earth to get them the resources, the people will fight on. If he is skimming we can go after that later.
Funny to be rehashing 2019 now, but the propaganda wars are ongoing. I personally think the world does need to stop Russia. As Greenwald gets so excited about our interests in https://systemupdate.substack.com/p/media-rewrites-ukraines-dark-history, I reject that. The 1991 agreement is important and should be enforced. Yep, it costs money we don't have but so does paying people not to work.
I'd recommend reading the book. As you see from the review, I was most interested in the Ukraine aspects of it. I should also reread it to revisit what it has to say about the prospects of war.
I will try, simply on your recommendation. Thanks. :)
p.s. what about this thing I just saw called: 'From Russia With Blood' ? Is what I've learned about the falsity of the recent 'doorknobs' thing in UK enough to base a rejection of the whole thing on? It is alarmist beat up?
Knowledgeable, but long and rambling piece; needs some good editing and grammar checking. What about the claims that there were/are dozens of US bioweapons labs in Ukraine prior to the Russian invasion?

Fascinating. Illustrates the vast difference between your scholarship and my lack of it.
However in the end I am simply confused. Will have to read it again. I don't expect to come out of it with a clear message to intake.
Fair few books I'll have to get and at least glance through.
I thank you for it. :)

Absolutely don't know. First I've heard about "From Russia with Blood." There have been a surprising number of deaths, however.

It's difficult for a former engineer like me to understand. It's easier to think of formulas and physics.
Politics in Eurasia is extremely complicated because of the mixture of ethnic groups.
I understand that Jews are also a big key to politics.
If half the Jews were like Einstein, they would have been more respected.
But is most human life a companion to greed?
