RT International News Program
Has recently added their news program to their page of shows. [rt.com]
You can find it at the bottom of the page or this link where the most updated version is at the top. Which is the page the above link takes you to [rt.com]
As I have stated in the past, their International news provides an entirely different view of the world with many other various types of people in which I highly suggest catching at least once a day. You can now do that at any time you have free time to do so. You can also add their free app to your TV and access this page from your TV using the web access on it.
While many of the programs on the show page are good, my favorites are Cross Talk, Direct Impact, Going Underground, and Worlds Apart.
Of course I've posted many from the series of Documentary since the Ukraine issue was taken to new highlights. But it's so much more than just the war. It provides a much wider view of culture and societies without the biased nature found within the History Channel, Discovery Channel, and Geographic Explorer documentaries. You can also navigate your way around their documentaries at this link. [rtd.rt.com]
The shows page gives you essentially a touch of everything you need towards understanding the global political atmosphere, economies, and societies. As I have mentioned before in regards to Europe since this Ukraine issue has been hyped up, the RT International news pretty much covers it every day. And African issues which are currently going through major changes presently. If you give these sources a genuine opportunity I'll guarantee you that when you compare it to what you're use to getting that you'll find you want it more if you intellectually know how to use what you observe.

How ironic that their 1st April 2023 news is of further censorship by Zelensky of freedom of the press in Ukraine together with sanctions against the Russian Oryhodox church in Ukraine.
2 other items stuck in my mind like shit on a blanket - huge IMF loan to Ukraine and the hypocrisy of selling outdated (at use by date munitions & weapons in order for the seller to be able to replenish with fresh stocks).
Having watched I'm now going to roll over & fulfil my sleep needs on this sunny (forecasted) Sunday morning!
The lyrics written by Eugène Pottier, 1871 are still very relevant today -

That Wikipedia screenshot doesn't look very legible so:
French Lyrics-
Debout, les damnés de la terre
Debout, les forçats de la faim
La raison tonne en son cratère
C'est l'éruption de la fin
Du passé faisons table rase
Foule esclave, debout, debout
Le monde va changer de base
Nous ne sommes rien, soyons tout
Chorus
C'est la lutte finale
Groupons-nous, et demain
L'Internationale
Sera le genre humain.
Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes
Ni Dieu, ni César, ni tribun
Producteurs, sauvons-nous nous-mêmes
Décrétons le salut commun
Pour que le voleur rende gorge
Pour tirer l'esprit du cachot
Soufflons nous-mêmes notre forge
Battons le fer quand il est chaud.
Chorus
L'État opprime et la loi triche
L'impôt saigne le malheureux
Nul devoir ne s'impose au riche
Le droit du pauvre est un mot creux
C'est assez, languir en tutelle
L'égalité veut d'autres lois
Pas de droits sans devoirs dit-elle
Égaux, pas de devoirs sans droits.
Chorus
Hideux dans leur apothéose
Les rois de la mine et du rail
Ont-ils jamais fait autre chose
Que dévaliser le travail ?
Dans les coffres-forts de la bande
Ce qu'il a créé s'est fondu
En décrétant qu'on le lui rende
Le peuple ne veut que son dû.
Chorus
Les rois nous saoulaient de fumées
Paix entre nous, guerre aux tyrans
Appliquons la grève aux armées
Crosse en l'air, et rompons les rangs
S'ils s'obstinent, ces cannibales
À faire de nous des héros
Ils sauront bientôt que nos balles
Sont pour nos propres généraux.
Chorus
Ouvriers, paysans, nous sommes
Le grand parti des travailleurs
La terre n'appartient qu'aux hommes
L'oisif ira loger ailleurs
Combien de nos chairs se repaissent
Mais si les corbeaux, les vautours
Un de ces matins disparaissent
Le soleil brillera toujours.
Chorus
English Literal translation:
Arise, wretched of the earth
Arise, convicts of hunger
Reason thunders in its volcano
This is the eruption of the end
Of the past let us wipe the slate clean
Slave masses, arise, arise
The world is about to change its foundation
We are nothing, let us be everything
Chorus
This is the final struggle
Let us gather together, and tomorrow
The Internationale
Will be the human race
There are no supreme saviors
Neither God, nor Caesar, nor tribune.
Producers, let us save ourselves
Decree on the common welfare
That the thief return his plunder,
That the spirit be pulled from its prison
Let us fan the forge ourselves
Strike the iron while it is hot
Chorus
The state represses and the law cheats
The tax bleeds the unfortunate
No duty is imposed on the rich
"Rights of the poor" is a hollow phrase
Enough languishing in custody
Equality wants other laws:
No rights without obligations, it says,
And as well, no obligations without rights
Chorus
Hideous in their self-deification
Kings of the mine and rail
Have they ever done anything other
Than steal work?
Into the coffers of that lot,
What work creates has melted
In demanding that they give it back
The people wants only its due.
Chorus
The kings make us drunk with their fumes,
Peace among ourselves, war to the tyrants!
Let the armies go on strike,
Guns in the air, and break ranks
If these cannibals insist
In making heroes of us,
Soon they will know our bullets
Are for our generals
Chorus
Laborers, peasants, we are
The great party of workers
The earth belongs only to men
The idle will go reside elsewhere
How much of our flesh they feed on,
But if the ravens and vultures
Disappear one of these days
The sun will shine always
Chorus
huge IMF loan to Ukraine
Is code for ---- I've further sold my country and my people off to the NATO nations ruling class and their corporations. We are now free to be plundered off to the highest bidders and enslaved within further uncontainable austerity measures. I've achieved the restriction of any media outlets to highly reduce any criminal activities and workers rights that could be exposed to the world community. I've also achieved the banning of all political parties and people who might challenge our fascists nationalist interest while working on the same in regards to religion.
@William_Mary I pointed out about a year ago that the Russian Orthodox Church is the biggest religious player in the country.
