      Not certain who we actually attribute it to but:
      In 1918 Senator Hiram Johnson said, “The first casualty when war comes is truth.”
      In Ancient Greece Aeschylus said 'In war, truth is the first casualty.'
      Samuel Johnson said: 'Among the calamities of war may be jointly numbered the diminution of the love of truth, by the falsehoods which interest dictates and credulity encourages.' (from The Idler, 1758)
      Put it anyway you like its still the same fact. In wartime, politicians lie.

      @@Tubemanjac You miss on the basic fact that morals like ethics has NOTHING to do with politics and never really has.
      If politicians repeat something from history its either out of ignorance or they do it deliberately and they can either get a good or bad result out of it. The most fundamental aspect of any political decision is "How does it benefit the politician and how does it benefit their backers?"
      These days that's almost been simplified to "What do the billionaires want?"

      In the USA most of that generation are now one foot in the grave. Like Ron Paul and Bernie Sanders. BTW, I can't recall any high ranking military commanders, that have chosen their sense of honour or duty to citizens, over the fear of reprisals. Anyone got good examples? Colin Powell, for example, was utterly shameless and dishonorable, considering he tried covering up My Lie massacre AND lied to UN Sec counsel about Iraq. Ignoring the rest for convenience.
      In USSR, quite a few military generals with integrity - blew their brains out, right in the office or that evening hanged themselves at home, when the country was illegaly destroyed.
      Recently, to show how bad Russia mishandled the preparation, it was reported an armored force commander shoot himself, after inspecting what vehicles he was given to work with. Quite a few others died leading the soldiers they were responsible for, from the front instead of from the rear as US would expect.

Using any and all media at your disposal to find an ant and make it into an elephant, while hypocritically ignoring any all things you do yourself.

      ​@@jmg8246 I don't think there are THAT many that are full-on warmongers for the sake of war and money.

If the head of the snake were somehow cut-off I bet society would come to their senses pretty quickly.
      We aren't born to want to rage war by nature, because war is inherently a waste of lives, resources and a threath to survival of complete tribes (now societies). No matter if you "win" or "lose" a war, it's a giant waste of everything. Winning is an egomaniacal illusion. There's just losing a lot or losing even more...
      Anyway, we should keep poking holes in all the psy-ops operations, because once people snap out of it, they will distrust any future psy-op by experience. Everyone we get out of this trance is a likely permanent soul to join the side of society that's rooted in reality. The more, the merrier

      I think the real pity is that a major geopolitical shift is facilitated by a catastrophic event, not so much a quiet passing of the torch. What will likely follow is a frantic scramble of the world's powers to assert themselves as successors of the US in world domination leading to an intense period of global conflict before settling into a new order. That said, the friction zones of our current geopolitical power centers already live in that reality so perhaps it is unjust to hope the same won't befall us.

    The singing at the end of the film touched me very much. This elder has great empathy for the suffering of children in the war. We humans should try our best to avoid wars. I have long had great respect for this professor Sachs. He is a very rare, honest, humane and professional person in the human world. I hope God bless him. Let him continue to speak the truth for ordinary people like me in the face of many evil politicians.
    Seeing what happened in Ukraine, what I think in my heart is not the sovereignty of countries or all kinds of political struggles, but those poor ordinary people.
    Taiwan, where I live now, is the next Ukraine that countries around the world are reporting.
    I actually dislike the United States very much, although they are the most powerful country in all fields in the world. But the United States is also the most evil country in my opinion.
    I am very disgusted to see the faces of many American politicians on TV and the media every day.
    I thought of the hometown where I live, Taiwan is very likely to become the second Ukraine in the future. My family, my friends, and my compatriots will become victims of the country-to-country confrontation. In fact, I am very angry.
    I don't know how many people in the United States know that their country is a very domineering, evil and cruel country.
    My English and my professional knowledge are not enough. It is impossible for this professor to have such eloquence and professional ability to criticize such a huge United States. But what he said was from my heart.

At the same time I assure you that the regular people that live in this country want what is best for ourselves and for the world. We are just normal people living our lives. A lot of what the government does is kept from us. It's shameful and embarrassing. I think more people are starting to see what the establishment is really about. But we are not sure what to do. It is so complex with so many issues, a person doesn't know where to start and how. I'm sending love and prayers for you and your family and your land from myself and all of the loving caring people that I know would want you to understand.

      Please make sure your fellow Taiwanese are educated enough not to repeat ukraine's mistakes. I strongly believe that freedom is not found with siding with the Americans. They sing about freedom and democracy but they do not behave that way. They only bring war to your country. Taiwan needs a better strategy to manage China. Not bring the usa into the picture. Bringing America into the picture will spell doom for taiwan... America is a war mongering country. They will certainly bring war to your country like many other countries before. Look at vietnam, Korea, the Middle East, and many more. They love creating war so that their firearms industry survives.. Taiwanese need to be smarter to survive. Don't play into US books..

This is defeatism and I'm not sure weather you're not of sound mind and soul anymore, or you're trying to sabotage the message on purpose (the latter seeming more likely). One can always talk to those who oppose you, "but no counsel I have to give to those who despair. But counsel I could give, will you not listen"? Kirk, I'm not talking about the evil "them", I'm talking to you. People like you are the real problem. Sad but it needs to be said.

    They all seem to think that war is the only solution. Really, as someone from Europe it's almost laughable how 'we' are gonna underestimate Russia once again.
    And don't forget, the reason why Russia annexed Crimea is that Kiev told Russia that their Navy Fleet had to leave, whilst Russia had a lease contract for I think another 30years.
