Col. Douglas Macgregor And Tucker Carlson Discuss The State Of The War In Ukraine
twitter ^ | Tucker

Posted on 03/16/2023 12:49:35 AM PDT by RandFan

Col. Macgregor: "The last thing Americans need is a war. No more political and military incompetence, ineptitude, corruption. They want an economy that works, and they're not going to stand around and watch the financial system go under. They want real leadership, not a cardboard cutout President."

If we don’t watch out—we may get into a war we can not win—then we will see America’s borders change. Russia gets Alaska, China, Hawaii and Guam, Mexico. New Mexico, Canada (when it sides with BRICKS) Gets Oregon, and Cuba gets Porto Rico. The great USA will be a page in the history books, like the British Empire.

All he’s done since the beginning is tell the unvarnished truth. The Neocons absolutely hate him for it.

Leftists have wrecked the US Military. Our weapons stockpiles are now dangerously low - for good measure Biden has run down our strategic oil reserve as well. The economy is not in good shape at all and the RINO and Democrat Establishments want a major war? Who the hell are these people kidding? We’d get our asses handed to us right now.

You keep saying you don't want war, so why do you care?

Remember the adage coined by Trotsky that you may not be interested in war but war is interested in you? Of course I don't want a war - what rational person would? That does not mean we won't have one though. In fact, the less prepared you are to fight a war the more likely you will get one as enemies sense your weakness. Sic Vis Pacem, Para Bellum.

There is another way the Left has wrecked the military: the quality of general officers and senior executives is probably the worst it's ever been. Because these positions are hand-picked, instead of through a centralized board, it's easier to discriminate, so instead of selecting someone based on talent and achievement, "other factors" are involved. The average FReeper who posts regularly on Ukraine threads (to include the Freeper neocons) is following the Ukraine war more closely than the average service executive these days. And war is supposed to be their business.

“You keep saying you don’t want war, so why do you care?”

I ceertainly do not want war, however there is only Peace through Strength. The slogan of the now ‘obsolete’ SAC.
The first incident that comes to mind as a reminder of what happens when a nation grows complacent & neglects it’s military is: December 7, 1941.

Of course I will be flamed for this, but seriously what has Macgregor been right when it comes to the Ukrainian war?
I listen to his interviews and though I agree with him about the woke culture stuff. Spent almost 50’years in the military and just recently retired
But his comments and predictions about the war have almost all been wrong, sure he got some right just can’t recall
Every month it is the end for the Ukrainians, from 3 day war to offensive to end all offensives in April, may, June…..

The loses he claimed for Ukraine would have wiped out their military several times over

Is he saying that Ukraine is not our war, but defending Taiwan is?

As for Taiwan, China and our borders the weapons we are sending to Ukraine are not weapons we will use to fight China or defend Taiwan. If it comes down to bradleys(being retired from service), Strykers (being retired from service) or 155mm shells the war is over, this will be a naval and air war.

As for procreating borders is Macgregor suggesting we need himars and artillery to be used on the border, if so then we do finally agree on something

Just my two cents.

By conventional “wisdom” Russia was the 2nd or 3rd largest military and they are getting their asses handed to them by a much smaller Ukraine military and some western weapons and intelligence

We can debate who will “win” this war but it is not debatable that the Russian military has not performed well.

Their are lots of examples of militaries on paper looking bad ass, iraq, the Middle East coalition against Israel and the Russians. When the rubber hit the road reality was different from paper.

China is questionable and on paper they look formidable, but when was the last time they were tested?

Unlike our sweeping, overwhelming, decisive victory in Afghanistan against a bunch of stone-age goatherds that only took 20 years...

Gotta go through Washington state or Idaho to get Oregon. Just add them to the list.

Normal people don’t want war. They also don’t want the government to go messing in other people’s countries across the globe and getting us into wars that should be the business of some other entity.

Needless war is so unpopular in the US that they have now used the bodies of Ukes and the Ukes get to die to advance their cause in taking over Russia. It is really quite sickening.

Neocons have no respect for other countries sovereignty. They have no respect and do not care about US sovereignty either because their desire is to take over and run everyone else’s countries under the banner of a world government run by them.

I’m not going to flame you. When the nukes start flying and detonate over your head, you’ll certainly be flamed!

ROFLMAO!!!
