"The Undeclared War" is a fictional series on Peacock. The story

[Ilsa]

presents a scary manipulation of UK citizens through cyber terrorism by Russia's FSB. Their objective is to get people fighting the government, each other, and also using social media for setting up violent confrontations. Elections are targeted as well.

The story begins following a young, brilliant, female Muslim computer scientist working at cybersecurity in UK's intelligence division.

Wonderful actors, including Mark Rylance, are featured.

1. It's not fiction, it should be a documentary.

2. That, too. I actually had questioned whether it

was a fictional story at certain moments.

One really frightening scene was of a FSB lecture/training class on the approach Russia was taking. They plan according to final objectives, and reverse-engineer part of the plan. Like chess, every responsive move is anticipated, and the psychology of citizens and current leadership is a driving force.

3. This is exactly what Putin and his clandestine operations are doing.

They know exactly how to create chaos, division, civil war in western democracies.

I have been talking about this for a long time, that Russia and the GOP are at war with the US.

Hopefully people are beginning to see it.

4. Another paraphrased nugget:

When a fake news producer was told by a new reporter, "This is all fake!" the producer said "That's the point. People need to believe that none of the news is real. And the person telling the biggest and best lies wins."
