Filming The War in Ukraine: Finn Boylan

[@Delorkay]

Fascinating guy, great questions too, i agree it feels like many things these fast journalism approaches loose so much dignity and humanity. Hope he gets his funding, hope he gets in and out safely. Thanks for covering his story so he can cover theirs.

All the best Finn, hope your funding comes through

I ,as An Irish person would like to make the following comment regarding the above interview, and the more recent developments regarding the subject of the interview. Firstly it makes great drama to the people that are not fully educated about the Russian/Ukrainian conflict. Well before the conflict started back in 2014 ,I was totally ignorant about the conflict . Unlike many people ,and also people in Ireland ,i was determined to find out the truth ,and not totally swallow one side of the narrative ,once again like many Irish have done ,and apparently also the case with Mr Flynn. I could not accept ,and It made no sense to me ,that one morning Putin woke up and decide ,it might be a good Idea to Invade Ukraine ,for absolutely no reason. At this point the only narrative was that Putin was an aggressor and was hell bent on Invading Ukraine and after that would march further west and take not only the former Baltic countries that were within the USSR, and conquer more of western Europe. After that I read the other side of the narrative going back. and how much Western Ukraine ( Galesia) hated the Russians ,and fought on the side of Hitler against the USSR during ww2. Stepan Bandera. America with their desire to weaken/ brake up Russia ,were willing to exploit the conflict in Ukraine, as the were in many conflict around the world to his day. Expansion of NATO, Rejection of any logical security proposal for the entire European entity. Many times over the past several decades ,Putin's proposals were always rejected by the West. It is also well documented the Ukraine were willing ,at the early stages of the conflict to agree a peace proposal by Putin, but Boris Johnson was quick to once again reject this proposal. Even it is also documented that Ukraine were only buying time ,and building up defenses on the Donbas ,to eventually invade the Russian speaking people of the Donbas, when PUTIN decided to invade. Finally Mr Flynn should not only accepting one side of the Narrative, as he is in this interview and outline both sides ,and let the viewers decide the merits . This young man has been ill advised to fight a loosing battle ,thus causing his demise . There is absolutely no doubt in my mind ,after studying both sides ,that America is responsible for this conflict ,and have blood on their hands . Not only that but anyone that promoted the view that Russia invaded a democratic country ie Ukraine ,also has blood on its hands . THIS INCLUDES SO CALLED iRISH JOURNALISTS, AND THE IRISH STATE, AND BACKS UKRAINE, AND ISRAEL .

I suppose it’s all whose propaganda is working better, no? What it boils down to me is from their actions following the war-Ukraine is in the right here. I’ll try to find Russian state owned media reports of massacres of Russian civilians…but consistently it seems that the Russian army is doing horrible stuff, committing war crimes, invading under false pretenses of denazifying Ukraine-all the while Putin runs with a crowd(Wagner, the Wolf MC, etc)who openly wear swatstikas. Believe me, I’m awake to the corruption and lies of the world-but looking at things objectively, without bias-that’s the conclusion that I and Finn have came to. Ask ppl of other countries (I.e. Poland, Finland, etc) how Russia has bullied them and pushed them around for years. It’s just the objective in-biased factual truth. If you’re getting angry reading this, maybe look into why you feel that way because propaganda is designed to make people emotional.
