You are welcome to argue any of my considerations and attack my personality, because surely all my considerations are private ones open for sharp critics.
I have already shown you that you were wrong in what you thought about the convoys in WWII. I feel no need to point out every time you are wrong about us. If I thought it would make you question it might be worth the effort, but clearly you already have your mind made up. This is a perfect example of it. I know of no western media that is claiming Russians do not have access to information, and in fact I did not claim that. I do know western media is indicating that Russian media is again coming under the control of the Kremlin more and more, and that is in fact true according to more than just western media sources. However most of us in the west understand that unlike the Soviet era Russians now have easy access to other sources of information, so it is no longer a question of can you access it rather it is a question of are you willing to think and question your preconcieved notions. In your case experience on USPOL has taught me you are not willing to question what you already believe to be true. Therefor what is the point in trying to engage you in any meaningful conversations? Answer is there is none. You will simply claim I am not informed as you have in the past.
