McCaffrey was always the boot-licking globalist image of a military officer. That he’s on MSNBC says it all.

. I don't see this mistake as a big deal

This was no “mistake”. This was a deliberate attempt to deceive and misinform.
He needs to be put over the coals for this outrage.

DHS says pointing out disinformation is now a form of disinformation; the latter to be persecuted to the fullest extent of the lawfare.

He's either a whore for sale, or has zero good judgement or morals.

He is all of the above.

charlatans and liars. Anyone remember the Kentucky Fourth of July where they said it was Turkey? Gulf of Tonkin? WMD’s? Oh and the Arab spring all because of the You Tube video?

I just can’t imagine how anyone can take CNN or MSNBC seriously.

They’re both just so... awful.

“Council on Foreign Relations”

America will need to undergo its own kind of “de-nazification” and this place will need to be among the first to be dismantled, brick-by-brick.

Of course it was a mistake. The video was not central to his point and posting a fake was embarrassing for him. That’s why he deleted it right away.

Plenty of real videos he could have used for illustration.

So why'd he use it then when it was clearly fake?

I already said - by mistake.

He thought it is real and fitting colorful illustration. These look quite real nowadays.

To the public, these men are members of a familiar fraternity, presented tens of thousands of times on television and radio as “military analysts” whose long service has equipped them to give authoritative and unfettered judgments about the most pressing issues of the post-Sept. 11 world.

Hidden behind that appearance of objectivity, though, is a Pentagon information apparatus that has used those analysts in a campaign to generate favorable news coverage of the administration’s wartime performance, an examination by The New York Times has found.

So he used a fake video to embellish his fake story.

The story isn’t fake. Russia doesn’t dare to fly over Ukraine.
