Nuclear warfare in the "new cold war"
#1
Hesitate on the images of Putin and Obama studiously ignoring each other at 2:20.

Just how in hell have we got here so quickly. Men of ill intent seeking disruption and chaos always seem to triumph over those men of good intent, don't they. That dangerous Collective Shadow in action.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.

Well, yes. My favorite bit is where Putin has to listen to the 'journalist' interviewing him explain what NATO's real purpose is at around 3.20 minutes. ::face.palm::

The journo must've wanted to hide under the carpet...

Hard to maintain gravitas and decorum in the face of such craven stupidity. Putin must have nearly pissed himself. He should have ended the interview right then and ask to speak with a professionally trained journalist.

Difficult to find professionally trained journo's these days, eh - that has become a barren and forgotten trade. Today's cardboard cutouts are clowns in business suits.
