There is a previous link to the Gates interview for anyone who wants the truth of the matter. Lol Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all need to challenge Putins BS. TBH Jim I am running a slight risk having that flag on my site. Not losing customers, it probably won't have any effect one way or the other (and in any case one has to stand up for what one believe) but I am slightly worried if the Russians will try and hack my site ! I am not kidding, I get a lot of hits on there, including 5 to 10 a month from Russia, and them Russkies won't like that flag at the top of every page.....

cuttsie Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I wonder if Aljazeera news is being shown in Russia , of all the news channels they seem to get closer to the action and the reporting is straight to the point . So with the BBC and CNN banned will the Russians be able to see Aljazeera . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it must have deterred him as nothing happened untill Mr Bidens watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know the answer, but I would guess that they would not be allowed to publish using the terms that they use on their English channels ... "war" "invasion" "shelling of civilians by invaders" etc. .... looking further, I think that they can only be accessed in Russia by satellite transmissions (Hotbird 13, AsiaSat7 & Thor 5) They used to be accessible on some cable channels, but that appears to have stopped. I cannot find out if they have closed their Moscow bureau, but I would be surprised if it is still functioning.

The answer lies within Russia its self , but without media access for ordinary citizens there is notch hope of Putin being outed . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
