Now this one aged well. The exact reason why you should listen professionals and not politicians.

The KGB and CIA are no different, to pretend such is just plain foolish

Real opportunity

Sad US and ex USSR countries did not make a long lasting peace/alliance.

Gentlemen please! No fighting in the war room.

They're so scary. Skepticism still valid.

The most remarkable moment is at 4:12 when the "former" KGB officer states that "the famous disinformation department isn't existing in the KGB-successor anymore".
It may indeed have been inoperable during the Yeltsin years, but it was surely immediately reactivated when Putin came to power in the FSB.
This department/weapon has become more powerful than the atom bomb after its digitalization in the 2010s.
Weaponized disinformation has turned the outcome of the Cold War 180 degrees around. If you look at the horrible effect Russian "Active Measures" have on Western societies, one must clearly state that Russia has indeed won the war.
And the plan to overthrow the West after completing the "demoralization" of its people is not even completed. That process is a preparation for a hybrid attack that will turn the West into complete chaos, with potentially millions of dead.
This attack will happen while Putin is still alive...meaning: it will happen very soon.

Just watch the TV show, The Americans

But realize if the KGB has changed it is Putin who has changed it and Putin is former KGB . So take from that what you will.

KGB, cia and the Israeli mossad are so fascinating. Wish I’d joined when I was younger.

CBS news leaving Twitter was a very brave and bold first step. You should be commended for your actions. That being said, what can be done so you leave YouTube as well?

CBS is making way too many political moves for an independent new agency. I recommend that we cancel CBS!
