Seems like Oliver Stone had it right way back there...

Did you see his documentary about "Ukraine on Fire" -- I think that was the title. ?

It was well made, I thought. 2014.

I started watching Patrick a few years ago when the proxy war broke out. I felt that he always sound and ligit.

He is doing a fantastic job even though he is often scared out of his wits. That takes courage and determination. I hope he remains safe until all this is behind us.

Yes, Lancaster is a solid guy. I remember his coverage of the siege of Mariupol was exemplary.

Thanks for this report by Patrick. One of the few real journalists. Russia is standing up to Western terrorism. He is showing how they are doing it.

Secret Communist sounds a lot like Anti Vaxxer. People use to be afraid of that term even if they were an Anti Vaxxer. Its the only play they have, name calling.

Patrick is square business. He is reporting what he sees. I have watched him for a few years. Good post.

This crucial to get another point of view as the basic western media outlets have devolved to instruments of governments. No journalism is left in what is called the mainstream media.

Have liked him from the start. Glad to know he's still around.

I have watched his videos and seen other earlier ones of Donbass prior to the military operation by Russia, where people slept in basements at night to be safe from the constant shelling of their homes by Ukrainian forces and looting of white goods, TVs, etc. from their homes.

Yes I remember at the beginning of all this, when he was interviewing the Ukrainian civilians and they were telling him, it's Ukrainian soldiers commiting war crimes against their own Ukrainian people

I also saw reports from independent German reporters, one female. Eva Bartlett also reported from there.
