Applying expert insight to understand the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight 370
Curated by: Jeff Wise (59 videos)
Starting in 2014, Russia dramatically intensified its hybrid warfare attack against the democratic West, launching hacking operations, misinformation campaigns, assassinating critics, and tampering in elections. Was MH370 a part of this wide-front assault? I’ve argued that it likely was, but whether or not that is the case, what is inarguable is that the success of Russia’s efforts has been aided by the failure of officials and mainstream media outlets to fully understand the true scope and nature of the threat. Few voices have been more dogged in trying to raise the alarm than Olga Lautman, a senior fellow at the Center for European Policy Analysis who also runs the Kremlin File podcast (https://olgalautman.substack.com/s/kremlinfile-podcast). In today’s episode Olga details the various ways that Russia has attacked the US and its allies and explains the motivation and methods behind them. With pollsters currently giving Trump a 50/50 shot of retaking power, Russia stands on the brink of victor in its war against democracy, and Olga is an excellent tour guide to the groundwork that was laid to that end. The arm of the Russian government that shot down MH17 (and likely took MH370 as well), the GRU, is the same one that hacked the DNC servers in 2016 and helped Trump illegally win that election. Thus, there is a straight line from MH370 to January 6—and, if Trump wins again, to the dismantling of America’s 248-year-old democracy.
