Surely not!
They are such a sweet peaceful bunch.
But his spot ‘In The Name of Truth’ is kinda weird
He appears to have sold himself out up the Qatari axis of evil. —could be a very profitable but short- lived career
The title at the link is "Stanislav Krapivnik: Russia & China United in Defense of Iran", not "If Tucker Gets Rubbed Out for Spilling Too Many Beans, This Guy is Next on the Menu (Stanislav Krapivnik)".
Glenn Diesen is a long term Russian shill, Krapivnik is a new kid since the Russian invasion started. He was born in Lugansk during the Soviet era, emigrated to the US, joined the army, got disillusioned with the US during the Yugoslavian conflicts, left and went back to Russia. He is a self styled political and military analyst operating independently in Russia. Which means, he works for the Russian government as a phony western expert from the west.
Some of his other expert commentary:
Former US Army Officer Stanislav Krapivnik wants Russia to threaten America with nuclear weapons , where he calls for a Russian first strike on the United States.
Stanislav Krapivnik: Trump's Peace Plan is a Trap for Russia , also with Glenn Diesen. Yep, he's a real MAGA type.
My big tell this guy is a shill is he talks about Russia taking Odessa by force, when Russia has not made one major operation toward Odessa in four years. When actual military operations are irrelevant to a "self styled military affairs experts", that tells me their expertise is in sounding good saying what their employers want them to say.
Krapivnik is another run of the mill Russian shill, a former western military officer now attaching is former service to what the Russian government wants to get out. I am no fan of Tucker Carlson; Krapivnik is no where close to Carlson's league.
.
Tucker has no beans to spill, but he’s clearly lost his marbles.
Candace Owner might kill Tucker to blame Israel
Tucker lives in Qatar now. Is Qatar dangerous?
....He is a self styled political and military analyst operating independently in Russia. Which means, he works for the Russian government as a phony western expert from the west.....
Trained by US army, logistics specialist.
Has family and connections in The Ukraine war zones.
Uses his eyes + ears + discernment, and his army training, to discuss what is happening along the front.
I believe him more than the wankers claiming the coke head is leading The Ukraine to victory
