Why Russian media is turning on its military | The Listening Post
Inside Russia, the narrative around the "war" is changing. The pro-war Putin-faithful are grappling with defeats they never expected and generals are taking the flak from public figures, loyalists on state TV channels, and even military bloggers.

On our radar:
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei finally broke his silence on the protests that have shaken the country for weeks. Producer Flo Phillips analyses Khamenei’s speech - key parts of which he also tweeted - and the repercussions it has had at home and abroad.
Russia: National myths and rewriting history:
Last year, the Kremlin published an essay - in Vladimir Putin’s name - arguing that Russians and Ukrainians are of the same Slavic nation. This new historical discourse has been key in the narrative built around the invasion of Ukraine. Producer Tariq Nafi looks into the battle over historical memory in Russia.

If the UK is the root of all evil, why did the Russian Foreign Minister send his daughter to school here? Why do so many Putin oligarchs live here? I think the guy on Russian TV who said that needs a visit to the Lubyanka.
Exactly!
Megalomaniac Putins daughter is living in Germany and Switzerland. Their billion dollar expensive luxury yachts are build in Germany. Fishing fleet build in Denmark and Norway. RuZZia has nothing worth mentioning, except for delivery of energy, which they can't be trusted any more! Lousy hypocrites and corrupt liars. May they soon feel the consequences of evil done to innocent 💥☠️💥
You are confusing warm with soft. Putin's oligarchs have received asylum for themselves and their capital in England. England saves them from Putin. Russia is doing the same. Russia provides asylum to European and American "oligarchs".
Yes they all in these dictator country hate the west and put us all down,but we are ok for some uses when it suits them.
Most of them bring their yachts and have a giant mansion there too lol. Such a terrible place.
A country that refuses to acknowledge past mistakes will repeat the same mistakes again and again.

Possibly the best source for accurate, inclusive news. Well done.
It always amazes me how much these people say they hate their West but yet use their products and their social media platforms.
I think everyone hates the Americans when it comes to their warmongering and horrific foreign policies. Doesn’t mean that we hate the American people or anything else about America. We’re all just people trying to get by at the end of the day
Yes, it's called hypocrisy and self-entitlement
Many westernes hate their "own" products and social platforms and i can fully unterstand this.
It's because Russia sucks at making things, they would be a third world country if they didn't have natural resources to extract.
And anti China racists don't use tiktok?
The Iranian leader just confirmed that the world is watching and supporting the protests.
I think even the most conservative shia feel the morality police went too far this time. Beating a teenager to death for not covering herself to their nebulous standard is absurdly excessive, and definitely isn't something anyone wants to be exacted on their own daughters. It's rare that the ayatollah finds himself at odds with his base supporters. He's hoping that pointing to the US as fanning the flames will make people see the girl's death as minor.
The iranian mullah wanted to be Sulaimani-72 houris or goats in heaven.

OMG the memorial part saddened me Its just unbearably painful to know how far can some people go when it comes to seizing power
Reminds me of the direction we in America are heading .. MAGA is busy banning historical books from schools. That's how it starts and then they continue to deny history and call those who remember history as haters of the country! It crazy how we have evil humans everywhere!
The Memorial segment is so sad, and just a part of who knows how many atrocities committed but covered up to never become known to even high ranking officials. Let alone the people of Russia. “ State Narrative creates the myth in peoples mind”! That quote is so true ( sorry if I missed a couple words when repeating it). Saying without Stalin they wouldn’t have won WW2, he almost lost the Soviet Union because of his late responses and decisions to fire anyone who could be a threat to him as leader, including all generals who knew war from WW1, and without them left his military with inexperienced leaders(Hitler did this too). Sounds a lot like what Putin is doing now. Which is what Those obsessed with Power & never losing it will do. Their paranoia about anyone and everyone unfortunately have no limits.
Are we talking about Nuland, Zelensky and Kolomojsky by any chance?

THANK YOU AL JAZEERA FOR YOUR EXCELLENT FACTUAL COMMENTARY, FROM AN AUSTRALIAN FAN !!!
The Rissians and North Koreans have so much in common
So-so but Russia is the new North Korea, you see people talk on TV and praise Russia before, trust me you do not want to live in Russia. If you're not white then it's x4 much worse. There's nothing good about Russia
Like failing armies, villain leaders, poor population, and illusions of independance? Yeah
So they might as well be blood-pact brothers... 🤣🤣🤣
Yes, Putin's legacy is that he's transforming Russia into a new North Korea, albeit with a much large nuclear arsenal.
What's disturbing is how alike Trump and Putin are
I’ve always noticed that when a world leader become more and more erratic in his decision, agressive in his speech and behaviour, and dangerous on the world scene, then he’s getting closer and closer to his own end…
Yea, because most of them were incompetent leaders to start with only being hand picked in the old favorites golf buddy and nepotism game. When they start talking about nuclear war, collapse of civilization, Armageddon, we know they're feeling really insecure for they lack even an ounce of leadership while only being instructed on what to say. The only time Joe Biden doesn't need instruction on which way to walk or what to say is when he's selfishly running off on Friday afternoons to go home! This era is unprecedented for it's the game over plan likely to never result in anything being great again.
Biden Is the cause of all of this and using our tax money to start a war that has nothing to do with anyone else but Biden and his criminal friends in Ukraine. Wake up
YES!
He's getting older for sure, but he seems like the "If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me", kind of person.
Like Trump?
If we don't study the mistakes of our future, we're doomed to repeat them for the first time.

"Don't blame the Tzar, blame the boyars." That's all fun and dandy until you ask yourself who put those boyars in those positions.
and lets not forget that the USSR attacked Poland in the back one week after the Germans attacked, and divided up the country as previously decided, then they went on to concuer the Baltic states and Moldavia. The only reason Great Brittain did not declare war against Stalin as per their defence alliance with Poland, was that they did not feel they could stage a two front war.

@@IFIXCASTLES not really. As far as "the Orcs" are concerned America is just the British (or Anglos) under a new flag. They view this through a racial lense. Slavs versus Anglos. Are you going to tell them that it was actually the Normans who turned the land of the Angles into the root of all evil (aka western dominance) or shall I? How to explain the rest of the bad behaviour in history (that which happened before 1066 or had nothing to do with the subsequent Norman monarchs) is beyond me. Maybe it's all down to the Babylonians or something.
Russia believes that Britain can organize a multi-staged subversive campaign of historical alterations and multi-level infiltrations while Britain can barely organize a prime minister.
I am delighted Britain will soon change its name to Northern Swaziland
Those who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it. As an American, this is true for us as well. I have struggled to find any form of government that does what is best for it's people, it is always about the preservation of the State and those in power.

As a retired engineer, Russia is lacking in safety ,quality control in there designs. As for regular inspections and maintenance it just doesn't happen. However they will have a ton of paperwork saying it was all done.

@@OmmerSyssel ISO 9000 quality control
For a supposed well off country, they have allowed much of their country to fall behind. Whenever I see reports from small towns and cities, you can see how they're still working with soviet era infrastructure, utilities and services. Everything is old.
Lying is absolutely endemic in a system that depends on shooting the messenger, and where the only law is to be useful to your boss, whose patronage means you are allowed to do anything you like to anyone without protective patronage of their own. Unless you do so in a way that becomes publicly known, and makes Russia look barbaric to the West, embarrassing the regime that depends on distorting the truth about both itself AND the world outside itself to both its own citizens and to other nations. -- in which case your impunity vanishes and elaborate posturing will take place pretending Russia has actual laws preventing that "sort of thing", delivered with a resentful air, because how dare non-Russians have these stupid moral standards by which they presume to differentiate between tribe membership, power, and moral behavior??
@@OmmerSyssel ive been in manufacturing, it all depends on the corporation and the ethics of the people in charge of quality. Good quality control often butts heads with heads of production creating possible drama and risking job security if corporate higher ups don’t have your back. It’s complicated because people in charge of production care more about output and settling for “good enough” Even if corporate rules dictate a higher degree of quality. So you need very assertive and ethical people in quality control and in your corporate ranks. This is much more difficult than it sounds.
From what I understand they're aren't criticising the attack on Ukraine and the war itself though 🙄
Yes. They're criticizing why they aren't dominating and why everyone hates them

Let Kadyrov lead in the frontline so he can taste defeat himself.
And i wonder how Russian soldiers will feel taking orders from a Chechen gangster? Kadyrov was recently promoted by Putin to be a Colonel-General, i believe, and he won't hesitate to send Russian soldiers to their death.
Apparently kadyrov is sending his 3 underage sons to the frontline, he's already posted some slick, edited videos of them firing guns and a RPG in "training ". I expect more tik-tok videos coming soon, although it's obvious they'll be no where near the frontline.

@@laszlozoltan5021 It's delusional to believe dropping nukes would put Russia in any better position, I just can't see it happening as there has to be people still living in reality somewhere in the nuclear command chain. If it happens anyway Russia will not only lose even faster in Ukraine, but they will be _forcing_ the west to respond extremely hard. Putin is not stupid even though he publicly constantly talks about the delusional Russian superiority he knows that if push came to shove NATO would absolutely crush and dominate all the Russian forces in Ukraine to put them back to reality and show the world what happens if you use nuclear weapons offensively, on top of that NATO would bomb key military targets back to the stoneage, unleash a big offensive cyberwar and of course use practically the hardest most overwhelming economic actions possible. And no Russia would not have any allies left at all if they used nuclear weapons like that, as accepting them as an ally would be to accept and approve of the bullshit desperate annex-territory-you-don't-fully-control which could easily backfire (imagine India annexing (Russia style) the LAC so now China has to back off because India could use nukes defensively).

Calling soldiers on the front line, being bombed, cowards, while you live safely in Russia (or any region) is soooo wrong. That TV host is being vicious and immoral in my opinion when she harshly judges *any* combatant that retreats from battle, especially when she knows and says that the command line is shaky or odd. // I hope I am being clear here that this goes for judging any soldier from any country. I am against Putin, against this invasion/annexation. - from Canada
I couldn't agree more. These soldiers lives are being destroyed. Also, the propagandist figures rant, rave, and make wild threats everyday...A sane person who didn't need a huge amount of money or fame to feel satisfied would never want a sick job like that!
It's just evil and sick. It's easy to pass judgements when the burden is not yours to bare.
Some things never changed. Whenever something went wrong in the Soviet Union, they didn't look for ways to identify and solve problems. They looked for somebody to blame. So it seems this is a Russian thing, after all. The West tends to focus more on solving the problem first and then find out who to blame/punish later.
What are you taking about? The west is guilty of the same. Especially the US. There are so many problems in the US That nobody is fixing
The west isn't any better, it too always blames others for its own mistakes. The west is just far wealthier from centuries of genocidal colonialism. It isnt superior morally to anyone, and I'm a westerner myself, just not a child and see very clearly the crimes our own nations commit. What Russia is doing is as wrong as any of our illegal wars
*The West imperialists look on what vulnerable country or collective to expoliate to solve their problems, as well as Russian, Chinese and other imperialists do.
That may have been the case once upon a time but three recent bag of inconsequential leaders we've had have turned that on its head. "Avoid blame at all costs and forget about solutions"
All authoritarian leaders do no self-reflection and do not accept responsibility for their mistakes. In the US, that was Trump.

We sometimes ask, "Oh, is it the life or the hijab you value more?" Because if it's a life, you must value all life. But those women are not covered in the reality show.

It is the first woman ever recorded died due to hijab and you like that one time is opportunity of life time. So you come out because you do not get chances like this.

If women want to wear the hijab, you go girl. But it should be her choice and hers alone. And I’ll say it again. Was her offense worth her death? Are you saying she deserved what happened? If so that is, objectively barbarous. And no, women shouldn’t be harassed anywhere for wearing hijab. Religious beliefs should be personal. Not dictated.
Shunned is not murdered
I don’t ever comment on the news, but I have to say this: that was the most incredible, informative, entertaining, and thought provoking piece of journalism I have ever witnessed in my 30+ years consuming news. Makes CNN and BBC seem like amateurs. Outstanding job.
Cnn and Bbc are too biased good call
This exact story and explanation was presented on BBC news earlier this week. I didn't learn anything new here, though its good to see this narrative appear on other media
@@elypowell6797 it was pretty much the same story as presented here. So if its embellished then so is this story.
I love it when talking heads on television talk about "cowardice on the battlefield". We used to see some of that during the Iraq War debate in the USA back in 2003.
What a wonder! None want to realize the outcome of aggression from past in Russia!!
Good job on this one! Nothing but cold facts and a funny comedian at the end!
Yeah. This is all that's left to keep european's moral up, they need to keep feeding us with these truths and up the good work!! 🤔But i winder why he's working so hard on his body language and tone. Does he assume we won't believe him?
The fish ROTS from the head down. Putin is the head.
Wall Street declined 15% in the last two months. Several trillion $ lost, unemployment rising, no savings, homelessness rampant, and the FBI arresting political opponents. The spectacular success of the Democratic marxist totalitarians calling themselves liberal democrats
Great Show. I'm impressed.
I hope there are records saved online of the archives of Memorial.
Holy...i thought Anthony Bourdain came back to life
me too, dude even sounds like him 🤨

Nearly blind for the first 6 years of my life, I learned to recognize people by how they move, walk, sound, etc. While the comedian got the moves grossly right, there was enough detail wrong for my "recognizer" to have problems.
Great reporting
Not so much. It is a cliche ... the terrible Russians censor their media. Al Jazeera needs a mirror.
Love the leaders walking at the end, well done !
Why were female leaders excluded?
Huh??? Trudeau is as female as one can get.. duh
Important piece to be made
"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake." --- *Napoleon Bonaparte*
The Tiktok warrior, Kadyrov, should come himself to Ukraine and fight. I bet he doesn't have the guts to do that.
He has been vocal about sending his 3 teenage sons instead (14,15,16 yrs old) father of the year! Although I'll believe it when there is proper evidence they actually served on the front lines (although I hope they dont- I wouldn't wish war on anyone let alone kids)
He fought in the 90s in a far more brutal war. I woukd say he does.. Hes also a psychopath
Ramzan Kadyrov is a leader of Chechnya and supportive to the Russian President Vladimir Putin Not a TikTok warrior, it's a Chechen real leader
@@joemarvincentserrano4234 hes also a former terrorist
они врали нам все это время, а теперь делают вид что ничего не знали they've been lying to us all this time and now they're pretending they didn't know anything
please tell the truth to Russian citizens. Putin is still deceiving its people. take away with him. then no one has to die anymore.
???
Ukraine or Russia?
@@ras-qp4xx russia
People who deny history are bound to repeat the same mistakes. History should teach us not to repeat the same mistakes.
That guy at the end NAILED it. Biden and Trump were perfect and his Putin... even had the dead arm... I loved that. 🤣🤣
Fantastic work guys! 😎❤️
Informative and enlightening. Thank you.
Glory to the Warriors ! Slava Ukraine !
I hate and bitterly despite all dictators. All people around the world can live in peace without dictators.
