Awesome Youtube channel (very ATS like)

I found this Youtube channel last night, started watching one video and ended up watching about 15 of them. This guy Christopher Greene gives commentary and theories about what the US is really up to, he actually mirrors much of what is said by ATSers. Hopefully I am posting this link in accordance with the T&Cs..

Enjoy!

AMTV

I found this video especially interesting: (title is slightly misleading)

A 10 minute video is a lifetime to a person of my generation, might you give us a small summary of the video at least?

It's either a real or unwritten rule around here, at the very least I think it's considered etiquette.

The summary of a video is a MUST because not everyone is able to view videos due to whatever device they are using at the time. The summaries are not done because you're lazy and choose to spend your time complaining about the fact that you don't want to watch the video instead of just pressing the play button. By the time it took you to write your comment and the time it takes you to view the replies to your comment, more than 10 minutes has elapsed.

And during that time I'd be engaged doing something else.

10 minute videos is a minor commitment in this day and age, I sigh if someone sends me a video link that is over 2 minutes, I have a lot to read, a lot to catch up on. Besides, I wasn't really complaining, I was merely informing him of this rule and asking for a quick summary, no harm done. Seems fairly ironic to me that you would complain of me "complaining".

I happen to think that it is also done out of courtesy, not all videos are 10 minutes long, some of them are 2 hour long documentaries and having a quick summary is therefore quite handy for people strapped for time.

Regardless, I did watch the video while having a cigarette and it's pretty straightforward, nothing new if you've been on ATS this last month. It talks about the double whammy of the sanctions, the sinking oil prices and the crippling effects they are having on the Russian economy. Conversely it also mentions Putin's so called "nuclear option", hitting the US where it hurts by undermining the petrodollar. Well, that's about it, or at least what I can manage to remember for the moment.

Sorry, I was sleeping..

However by my description of the channel, the forum it was placed in plus the title of the video one could summarize:

It is a video about how the madness in DC could push Putin to his breaking point...

I'm not going to type up a freaking transcript!
