Russia's TV is not propaganda? What are you watching exactly? When on official channel you saw what happens in Russia's hot spots? When you saw an interview with opposition ? Russian people have much less freedom then the Americans with or without NWO. Liberties that are now being lost (as i see from this forum) in US were never available to Russians.
So painting Russia as a bastion of personal freedom and unbiased media is ,well, inappropriate.
As for becoming one planet - and Russia's involvement in this weird idea:
Russian people are definitely against globalization, but their leaders are heavily investing in the western,globalized,economy. Huge efforts are being made (successfully) by Russia to control large part of GLOBAL energy market. Economical crisis in the west will cause damage to Russian economy also. Now can you show me why Russia is not part of a globalist world?
And finally , can you explain how Putin fights corporations when he established one of the biggest government corporations in the world -Gazprom? Maybe because Russian "non"-brainwashing media tends to show successful farmers and loyal politicians and not the truth?
BTW, about a big brother stuff - how much Russian politicians are ex-KGB? I wonder what would happen in US when that much ministers were from CIA ,not to mention the president.

i appreciate what you're saying but let me add that i very much doubt that the Western Powers would cozy up with Russia if they actually gave in. some differences, whether real or imagined go deeper than PR and assimilation issues. there is a level of intolerance which i figure most cannot fully understand unless they're confronted with it. note that the analogy i will use is inaccurate, it just goes to demonstrate a point.
so, my fair warning is that, at a time there were basically two variants of Native American people, those who followed tradition and assimilated ones.
whenever wars were fought against them, you can probably guess whose villages got hit first.
hint: imagine easy targets
morale: no amount of cooperation will lessen their hostility.
PS: i bet you've noticed that Russian toothpaste does not contain flouride?
