  • Bye bye

    I used to give you benefits of doubt.but in recent episodes you are clearly pro Russia and China and biased against Trump and Israel. No facts and reasoning and just hysteria.

  • Biases

    Your biases against the US are showing. Usually, you’re pretty balanced, but your 3/3/26 show was not. Especially, when one of your presenters stated the war was going catastrophically bad. My goodness, we’re only four days into the campaign. Question, let’s say Iran gets a nuclear bomb - then what do you advise the world do? Just saying….

  • Proper in-depth discussion

    Daily listen. Many thanks for the excellent and knowledgeable analysis. If you've had enough of the monovoice propaganda of the mainstream anglophone media, and want to understand the political logic of what's going on , have a listen.

War clouds are gathering w/ Willy OAM
Q: How is it that Russia has only been able to occupy an additional 1.5% of Ukraine since January, 2023?
The frontline is moving at an incredibly slow rate due to the efficiency of drone warfare and the number one priority for Russia is the destruction of Ukraine's potential as a state.
