5th episode: "It was a MIG"
Is the entire “could an SU-25 do it?” debate no more than a diversion that has kept anyone from asking the more important question – was it an SU-25 at all?
I'm seeing my friends tomorrow, the ones who thought I was crazy when I told them that Putin was innocent and so was Assad. They have swallowed the propaganda hook, line, and sinker.
They will be for Hilary but I will be for Jill Stein, or even Trump. Trump is not the cold blooded murderer that Hilary is, I will tell them. Trump offers better rations with both China and Russia. Well, my friends will probably think he is dealing with the devil. They're nice liberals. I'm a George Galloway man myself.
On the other hand, look at the other countries of the region. So-called democratic Israel is one of the most repressive. It's a tough area, with a lot of inter-group conflict, and therefore a tough area to govern. So strong governments generally arise led by a strong man sitting atop a power structure that is committed to preserving order, which under the circumstances means imposing order.
Interesting new series. Unfortunately the damage is done as far as discrediting Russia.

Assad is hardly innocent. His dad was no shrinking violet either.
