Look at the link I posted, and scroll down a bit.  There you will see a tweet from RT responding to the NATO images claiming the images are from a videogame. 

Yeah my world view is too complicated for you.  Glad you're aware of that.

21:55: "Olga Golovanova, Interfax agency, I have a question to Russian minister. Sergey Viktorovich, recently NATO has accused Russia of military invasion into Ukraine, citing new photo and video materials, reports about movement of thousands of troops. Last night there was a phone call between Obama and Merkel, in which they've supported an idea of new sactions against Russia. How would you comment this situation and what Russian reaction might be to the new wave of sactions? Thank you."

22:30: "Our reaction would be continuing our consecutive attempts to stop violance and begin real nation-wide dialogue and talks about future of Ukraine between all regions and all political parties -- that's what we have agreed on in Geneve in April and in Berlin in July -- and that's what tour Western partners are carefully trying to avoid now. As for accusations, that's not for the first time, basically from the beginning of the crisis we have been blamed for everything. So various conjectures aren't new to us, but we never have been presented with facts. Earlier there were reports about satellite images, which supposedely show Russian troops movement, that turned out to be images from videogames. Last accusations are more or less of the same kind. We haven't been presented with facts nor in regards to invasion, nor... I believe concealing facts is the main feature of the US position for the most part and certain European nations in regards to of everyhting happening in Ukraine, be it alleged Rusian troops movement, as I said it earlier, or direct involvement of American secret service into Ukrainian enforecement training, be it Malaysian Boeing crash investigation, or Maidan tragedy investigation, so called "snipers case", or tragedy in Odessa on May 2nd etc, etc..."

So it wasn't RT responding to it, it was a quote from Lavrov Q&A after meeting with his collegue from Iran last Friday, in which he referred to previous images fake presented by SBU and taken from the game LockOn: Flaminig Cliffs 2, more here:

Granted Lavrov mistakenly identified those images as if "Russian troops movement" has been depicted on them, while it was really about Buk missile launch, whice excusable given how many fakes SBU produces. But all in all, this is exactly as I've said it. The episode about video game fake is from totally different story, namely MH17 crash. On top of all Lavrov was misquoted as if he was talking about these specific recently preseneted images, while he was referring to this ancient story.

 

 


The "complicated" comment was an irony, hope you're aware of that. Since you cannot present here smth I don't know already better than you're for obvious reasons, it'd certainly be more valuable to have your opinion on smth more core, related to realpolitik here, aside from these unneeded details that doesn't change much anyway (we all know it's a proxy war), and honestly doesn't worth an effort to discuss, research or debunk just like I did it above with this specific episode, just made an exception this time.

I was fully aware RT was using the response of Lavrov in their tweet.  I was also fully aware that he dismissed the new images, and quickly assumed they were similar to the other "computer generated images".  None of that stopped RT from running with the quote and posting it.  Don't get mad at me for RT doing a terrible job and misleading those who follow its news.  Just wondering if you were one of them.  Nice to know 

Russia involvement as does any nations involvement in this war is very well worth discussing.  Obvious as it may be, does not make it less worth talking about.

'm only basing my comment from the stuff I read from the internet but why is Fox news so hated? I don't have fox news on my cable plan so I have no idea. And which do you thinks is worst? RT or Fox? I have the RT app on my phone and they are too focus on reporting the bad side of western Europe and North America.
