The Next Few Weeks Will Be DEVASTATING For Ukraine – Col. Douglas Macgregor
The Jimmy Dore Show ^ | 2/21/2023 | Staff

Posted on 02/21/2023 4:20:44 PM PST by Its All Over Except ...

Mostly what we hear from the mainstream corporate media about the Ukraine War is that Russia simply must be defeated, even if it means sacrificing the lives of every last man, woman and child in Ukraine. But few of the pundits, politicians and think tankers promoting this program have much of an idea about whether this outcome is remotely possible.

Guest host Aaron Maté and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger speak with retired U.S. Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor about the collective delusion among Western nations that Ukraine can defeat Russia on the battlefield.

Supporters of Lindsey Graham will sure be triggered over this, even against Col. MacGregor.

But...but... but, Russia invaded Ukraine!!!

Jens Stoltenberg effectively ended the Biden administration saying Russia started this:

He Did It Again – General Secretary [NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg] Admits NATO Has Been at War Against Russia in Ukraine Since 2014
2/18/2023

https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/02/18/he-did-it-again-general-secretary-admits-nato-has-been-at-war-against-russia-in-ukraine-since-2014/

The Nuland call being leaked, the Color Revolution in Ukraine, and news outlets reporting on the Obama administration supporting a coup in Ukraine [against a sovereign country] might cause some people to think if some in the U.S. don’t like an election they’ll just support a coup, so what did Russia think if they also think the US has influences other elections meddled, been behind coups, or think meddling took place in the 2020 elections? Did they think back in 2014 they were next? Do they think Obama, Biden, Bush, whomever, really believe in “sovereignty”?

Some argue that eastern Europeans have been desperate to get in to NATO, but they don’t answer if NATO took advantage of them, don’t answer should NATO have done this, nor answer what I believe is George HW Bush saying that NATO had no intention of honoring not moving east towards Russia when James Baker and others were meeting with their Russian counterparts during Berlin reunification talks.

Pointing these things out is followed by neocons/neolibs immediately attacking, deflecting to take attention off of the Obama and Biden administratiins, and calling you a Putin supporter without laying out how. Seems like more Russia! Russia! Russia!, Mueller Russian investigation, Steele Dossier, etc, attacks.

It’s obvious with the Obama/Biden admn starting at least 4 new interventionist wars, getting NATO to attack Libya, going against its defensive charter, attacking Libya though it didn’t attack a NATO member. This is typical establishment neoliberal behavior (which actions in Syria by Obama could also be seen as) and wouldn’t attacks like these cause mistrust among the nations?

And Bush administration, Project for a New American Century, is establishment neocon policy.

1/2 [Putin obviously paid off Josep Borrell, the EU foreign affairs chief and Stoltenberg as well, right?]

Per what Col. MacGregor had to say:

The Guardian
2/19/23

Ukraine war ‘over’ unless EU boosts military support, says top diplomat

Foreign affairs chief tells Munich security conference provision of ammunition has to be solved quickly.

The war with Ukraine will be over unless the EU finds a way in weeks to speed up the provision of ammunition to Ukraine, Josep Borrell, the EU foreign affairs chief, warned on the final day of the Munich security conference.

... adding it is taking up to 10 months for European armies to order and receive a single bullet.

...”

Russia’s mounting offensive in eastern Ukraine has left the West in panic.

Nice pair. Dore says despicable anti American things. MacGregor is a total propaganda tool.

Following them is to march off a cliff.

Neocon Graham sure likes Biden, even though Obama talked about how easily Biden could jack things up, like he’s doing with Ukraine:

Business Insider

Lindsay Graham called Joe Biden ‘as good a man as God ever created’ in a resurfaced 2015 interview

Given Macgregor’s sustained record of being spectacularly wrong about the war, I would have sworn this headline was from a full year ago.

“Dore says despicable anti American things.”

Well at least we know that you’re NOT a conservative.

You are using the neocon/neolib tactics I pointed out warlier.

“... that Russia simply must be defeated, even if it means sacrificing the lives of every last man, woman and child in Ukraine.”

When have we ever applied that kind of tone to any country fighting for its survival? We haven’t.

It’s not a moral appeal, it’s propaganda. Very few countries if any have EVER lost their entire population in the history of the world.

And millions of Ukrainians already are refugees in other countries.

This nonsense about not caring how many men women and children die sounds more like the Peacemaker script.

The country was attacked. They are fighting valiantly otherwise they would have lost long ago. That’s the choice any society has the right to make.

Spare me your labels.
I’m speaking intelligently.
You’re talking out of your ass.
Let’s just leave it at that.

DORE said On Tucker and I quote:

“If there is a Marine anywhere in this world, he is there to steal that country’s resources”.

Dore can ESAD.

If Russia ideed wins, would they pull their troops back into Russia in exchange for NATO being reversed back to its original charter nations?

… Russia simply must be defeated, even if it means sacrificing the lives of every last man, woman and child in Ukraine.

Easy for those outside the wire to say. They’re not in the crosshairs.

I pray for peace for all of the innocent people whose lives and livelihoods have been upended and for those who have suffered devastating losses of their loved ones and their homes.

The billions Biden is pouring into the laundromat are not going to those people. Those dollars are being stolen from us, the taxpayers and are lining the pockets of a bunch of global crooks.

I pray that peace is negotiated very soon.

You are not showing how pointing out what neocons/neolibs do is “sucking up to Soviets.”

Need to show how or scram.

Why do they not show how pointing out what neocobs/neolibs do, what their long term policy towards others is, etc, is somehow “sucking up to the Soviets”?

Why do they get triggered, become overly emotional, and lash out?
