I think I get your thinking, the options would be a) to produce these clips, or b) not to. I‘m not an expert in military propaganda, maybe @[email protected] can explain: How would the war evolve if let‘s say only Russia produced these videos, but Ukraine didn’t? I imagine Ukraine would look weak to the outside observer, is that correct? What other effects do you obtain from producing these?
I don't know, I think it's still possible for Ukrainain military to release videos, but cut the ISIS style music videos and the horrible way of killing a person. To me personally, it gives the essence of seeing human life as being nothing more than sick joke. That's probably how Russians can do horrible things to Ukrainains or other people, and I don't think dehumanizing human beings is healthy for anyone or any society. And I do have a higher standard for our allies, to not become the evil they're fighting.
