Géopolitique

One of my favorite podcasts is Géopolitique from France Inter. It is the journalist Bernard Guetta, who comes with interesting, thought provoking and wrong statements about world politics. Everything is presented as serious facts, and I'm sure most of his listeners believe him. He is as far as anyone can be from being an agnostic. Just listen to him informing you what "the Russians" think of Boris Yeltsin (Борис Николаевич Ельцин) or "the Israelis" think of Bush (any bush). There is no trace of any nuance there. All 100 million Russians think exactly the same, if you are to believe m Guetta. This oversimplification of reality is what makes this podcast so easy to listen to. The simplicity of lies is so much smoother to the ears than all the nitty gritty details of reality. I highly recommend it.
