The Most Convincing, Rational Case Against Intervention in Ukraine
The Charlie Kirk Show ^ | 3.11.22 | Charlie Staff

Posted on 03/11/2022 2:11:26 PM PST by conservative98

On a deeply informative episode of The Charlie Kirk Show, Charlie gives a thoughtful, comprehensive, and well-sourced rationale for why you should be skeptical when it comes to selling out America to help Ukraine. This all comes in light of the Senate’s Bipartisan decision to pass a $1.5 Trillion Omnibus Spending Bill—part of which will send $14 Billion to Ukraine, including $6 Billion in Defense & Lethal Aid. All of this was made possible by the Uni-Party Cooperation of 18 Republicans whose global interests outweigh the interests of their constituents at home. In questioning their judgement (or lack thereof,) Charlie makes arguably the most convincing case you’ll hear as to why America needs to stay the heck away from War in Ukraine.

If you love what happened in Afghanistan, you’re going to love Ukraine.

Charlie Kirk is a globalist shill for outsourcing billionaires. He saw the way the wind was blowing and stopped trashing Trump. But he’s no different than the fraud JD Vance.

Many believe that dog and pony show Rubio did revealing the bio weapons labs snd their fear Russia will use them was setting the stage for us using them on Ukranians and blaming Russia.

Eisenhower did not intervene in the Soviet put down of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. He recognized that the risk was not worth it.

The U.S. vice-president R.M. Nixon said that: “We couldn’t, on one hand, complain about the Soviets intervening in Hungary, and, on the other hand, approve of the British and the French picking that particular time to intervene against [Gamel Abdel] Nasser.” Despite earlier demands for the rollback of Communism and of the Leftist liberation of eastern Europe, Dulles told the USSR that: “We do not see these states [Hungary and Poland] as potential military allies.”

In 1998, the Hungarian ambassador Géza Jeszenszky criticised Western inaction in 1956 as disingenuous, recalling that the political influence of the United Nations readily applied to resolving the Korean War (1950–1953). Moreover, the study Hungary, 1956: Reviving the Debate over U.S. (In)action During the Revolution confirms that the Eisenhower government did not intervene to the Hungarian Revolution – which occurred in the Soviet sphere of influence – because the USSR would have responded with a nuclear war.

I agree. Charlie lives here in Scottsdale. I have went and seen him speak a couple of times at Church.

“I find THAT a “most convincing, rational case against intervention”...”

Same regarding Cuba. The Soviet Union also didn’t want a nuclear war.

He’s a slimy fake like Ted Cruz. They don’t like Trump or populist politics. They just pretend to their advantage. Cruz’s wife is one of the highest-ranking people at Goldman Sachs. Kirk supported him before he saw the Republican voter base was going for Trump.

The most obvious reason for the US not getting involved.

Does anyone really think Biden won’t totally eff everything up?

And yet the Soviets put nuclear armed missiles in Cuba in response to US Jupiter missiles in Turkey.

“If you guys loved what happened in Afghanistan, you’re gonna be THRILLED with what’s going to happen in Ukraine.”

and,

“Do we fight to win? No.”


Sorta sums it up. Everything he stated: He’s not wrong, but ignoring how this situation was created in the first place doesn’t lend him credibility. Perhaps he went on longer, but the linked audio is only a half hour and he mostly rants on the administration, the ‘deep state’ (though he doesn’t frame it that way) and the debate on sending $$ & military aid.
