About Collapse
Independent American reporter Michael Ruppert is the subject of this documentary, which looks at how the ex-police officer managed to predict the massive Wall Street crash of 2008 years before it happened. The film delves into what led Ruppert to foresee the financial crisis, as well as his grim worldview, which envisions more economic disasters.

" Russian troops are gradually increasing the intensity of their offensive in eastern Ukraine , " Ukrainian defence ministry spokesman Oleksandr Motuzyanyk warned.

The version of events The West doesn't hearIf you live in the UK, US, or most of Europe, you may be baffled at Russia's claims about what's happening in Ukraine - That it is there to protect people, and That Russia is a victim of Western aggression.
But it's not just Russia That flirts with this version of events. A UN vote to condemn The Invasion passed by 141 out of 193 votes. That means More Than a quarter of member nations didn't vote at all, abstained, or sided with Russia.
Why?
