      Most human beings don't speak in perfect uninterrupted sentences all the time, and don't necessarily tell things in a logical or linear manner. So in order to construct a video that is easy to follow and doesn't feel boring you have to cut a lot of unnecessary phrases and pauses out, as well as rearrange the order in which the phrases were said in. Editing a video like this is like writing a script, but instead of starting with a blank page and having to make everything up yourself, you piece it together from the things the interviewee said, even phrase by phrase sometimes. While the cutting pace may not be ideal, and it may even feel annoying, I guarantee you the video would be much more boring if they just let his answers play out.

    After having gone to so much trouble to train Barsky and get him into the US, I'm astounded that the KGB hadn't provided him with sufficient verifiable information to apply for a US passport. This is even more surprising given that presumably there must have been other KGB agents who'd successfully attained US passports prior to Barsky meaning the KGB should have known the process and briefed him on what was required.

    • @leslie6938
      @leslie6938 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Things were different in pre-internet, pre hi tech America. And the KGB had to start somewhere. So i can see how he could’ve been the first, or one of the first facing the more extensive passport application.
      Everything wasn’t as structured and buttoned up then. There weren’t centralized databases with complete, uniform info readily available. The US agent was paying attention and properly trained. Training and procedures evolve over time, maybe they’d recently instituted new guidelines or additional agent training, for example.
      I recently saw a video about airplane hijackings and airport security measures in the 70s. Thats when the public began to travel by air as it became more affordable and accessible to the upper reaches of the rapidly growing middle class. As a new and growing business and consumer travel mode, it took time to recognise the dangers exploitable and weaknesses. People and baggage weren't screened or searched, both went right on the plane. It took a few hijackings and murders by plane for the industry to realize how vulnerable air flight was.
      You could arrive at the gate 5 min before takeff and walk on the plane. You could give a ticket you’d bought to another person if something came up and you couldnt
      travel at that time. You could switch your seat on the plane if there was another empty seat you liked better. I give these examples to show that knowledge and attitudes were different, back then.
      Technology and info availability grew leaps and bounds over the last 40ish years. So i think this KGB’s agent’s experience was quite believable. The only way the KGB would learn about procedural details like the info required on the most recent customs application version would be to learn it through spying.

      Some concentration camp type events happened at Nazimo Island in Stalinist Russia. I mentioned online that the first 4 letters of Nazimo are NAZI. People kept denying the connection. Nazi is only an acronym, they said. The Nazis were the Communists' enemies, they said. Now the KGB is telling us that the Communist mission was to establish a workers' paradise. Nazi literally stands for National Socialist WORKERS' Party.
