Two hours ten minutes. Lira is under low light at start and intermittently throughout. He also nearly chain smokes and appears to be drinking an alcoholic beverage. He lives in Kharkiv. Martyanov provides the most useful content. Lira is a capable interviewer.
My comments made while viewing:
Western Civilization is surviving in Russia. Europe is written off by Russia. The breakup of Europe, of the institutions of Europe, is civilizational.
[Also deliberate, by Euro-American elites themselves. - DRG]
Russians cannot tolerate the smell of those people -- Euro-American elites, fascists, queers-atheists.
If you think Patton is a great warrior, you will never win a war. Patton is a litmus test of your military ability.
Demilitarization has two vectors: (1) annihilation of industry, (2) annihilation of personnel.
[US elites did this already to their industry and are doing it now to their personnel. - DRG]
Alexander Novak, second most powerful man in world, after Putin.
NeoCons-Wall Street-EU-City of London-NATO wanted economic war with Russia. They got it. They are losing it and can do no other. Imbeciles. Fruits of hatred: self-destruction.
[I think they thought they could survive the return of the boomerang they threw at Russia and still be in charge of whatever is left after the smoke clears. This calculation, not their failure to weaken Russian economy to cause an internal revolutionary regime change, constitutes the imbecilic incompetence of Euro-American fascists, NeoCons, queers-atheists. Of course, along the way, the serenity of their own citizens is of no interest to those persons. Either way, hatred is self-destructive. - DRG]
There is no fortress which can defend against attackers loaded with gold. Treat the people kindly and you will have peace.
Western technical and financial collapse is already underway. Many signs.
Correlation of forces. An all-important military term of art.
[Turned on its head by the Russian SMO-Ukraine, a virtuoso performance by the Russian General Staff. - DRG]
Europe decides whether to be part of Eurasia, or the western peninsula of Eurasia and of no significance.
[Enmity Must Be Atoned — a banner to hang over councils of Euro-American fascists. - DRG]
China makes 3x as many cars as US. US economy bases on derivatives, not products. The combined West, especially Europe, is becoming an economic midget. Real economy is always products, commodities.
Russia is the military pivot of history today because she only can provide reliable military security. No other country can. Chinese recognize this.
Russian economy is larger than German for at least the last five years. Russians are living better than Europeans. For Europeans, that is excruciating.
Lira thinks US NeoCons-Neo-Fascists will start war next in Saudi Arabia, to remove MBS, install CIA’s man, Muhammad bin Nayef.
Lira and Escobar do not grasp that global economic destruction is part of the Euro-American fascist (queer-atheist) plan to depopulate to seize land.
[I think the breakup of Europe and The USA — a civilizational molting, not a civilizational breakup or collapse — belongs to humanity’s resolve to remove the last form of hegemonic phantasy from off their backs: oligarchy, aristocracy, titles of nobility. Monarchs and dictators are rejected already. Now it’s the turn of oligarchs, of self-styled aristocrats, the most dedicated to their cause of whom are queers, those among us who are scarce half made up. - DRG]
