Your fellow Brit Russell Brand, dear Wanderer91
I like him, he usually has a good grasp and background info in his not overly long vids (in this video Putin isn't spared either, which is a bit hard for me to swallow as a Putin groupie lol ) but he tries to show both sides and also mentions how mainstream media is paid by corporate interests who benefit largely from wars.
"untold history of the US" by Oliver Stone might be a good recommendation to watch for anyone who has netflix
Edit: sorry, I just posted some information in this and the other post, I realize wanderer your intention in setting this thread was more to send love and thus help and not get bogged down by the mundane stuff....
please accept this sad puppy face as a token of my sincerity
as I said I also hope for peace and try to focus on the spiritual. Peace and love to all!
