Real War Expert Explains Ukraine Fake News

All right. Sorry about that. We had a little glitch getting going. Bam. Do it, Boone. This is Big Bad Boone Cutler, and you're watching a Breaking Down show. That's right. This is going to be awesome. I've really been looking forward to doing this. So just so you all know, look, not a lot of shows have this ability, and I'm going to chop it up here, and I'm going to shoot some horns here, right? Boone's a bad motherfucker. Boone has deployed. He's been blowed the fuck up. I have to, we have done this stuff on the ground. And when we talk about Afghanistan and Iraq, now Ukraine, we're talking from a point of view of experience. So when you see talking heads on the news, that's great, man. And maybe they go and they embed, but they didn't do it day in, day out. They didn't put their lives on the line. Now you put it in people like Boone's in my world. We didn't sit behind desks. We went outside every damn day. We tried to figure out how to do what we did. And in our worlds, Boone's our worlds, we work like this all the time. I don't get to go out of the gate by myself very often, very rarely. And that's for a good reason. It's dangerous as hell to do it. So how do I get extra manpower to go out? I've talked to civil affairs. I've talked to psychological operations because those guys need to go out. And we work akin so often that I know guys like Boone. I know all kinds of psychological operations people, and we work similarly. So I have huge respect for what these guys do. I try to stay out of their way. Only thing I ever try to do is try to find out if I can help them get adjacent to their information to help them confirm or deny what they think they know about their stuff. So enormous respect for what these guys do because it's dangerous. It's not easy. It's complex. They've got so much oversight. And so when I bring someone like Boone in, I'm not bringing Boone in to be gentle. I'm bringing Boone in to be bad, to tell us what we're looking at day to day. Because when I look at the stuff that's going on in... Russia and Ukraine and how that gets reported in the American press, European press, big, big difference, Al Jazeera and what they say, you see a lot of different stories being told. And so we're going to look at some of these stories live in real time. I'm going to read some of this news and you all are going to hear Boone go, stop, Pete, shut up. I got something to say. I'm going to tell you what's being said because you know who writes news? Boone does. So that's me telling you the premise of this and understand why I have Boone here talking because he is a ground truth expert in this. And this is all of this stuff, this stuff that he has absolutely, absolutely, I can't tell you how good he is at this stuff. So Boone, I'm going to give you the floor to talk about this and then we're going to get our hands dirty. We're going to look at this news and you're going to tell me what you think. Thank you, brother. I appreciate it. And I will dovetail into that and say, you know, when PSYOP and with Intel, when we work together, it's such a beautiful thing because For one, I can't tell all the impact indicators that are going to come back around after I do my operations if I'm not talking to the NCEL side. So there's so much hand, you know, hand in glove that we do. And also when we're out there, I mean, sign up is two way Intel. I'm making sure I'm putting stuff out and I want to make sure I want to see who gets a hold of it and what they do with it, where it goes and who, you know, who's collecting on the other side when it comes back in. Because when you see those lines of communication coming, you know, full circle, you're like, okay, now I got something. Now I got message and theme that I can really capitalize on. And I've captivated a target audience that is going to permeate what I'm saying, what I'm doing, the campaigns that we're pushing out. And we can't do that without the So it is so close. I mean, it really is hand in glove. So thank you for putting that out there.
