Speaking in a YouTube interview with the Consortium News outlet on Friday, investigative reporter Seymour Hersh, who exposed the CIA’s purported sabotage attempt on the Nord Stream pipeline, accused the Biden administration of making “so many bad mistakes,” that “it’s impossible to believe just how dumb this leadership was.”
“It was suicidal to think you can win that war, that Ukraine can win the war [against Russia]. There’s just too much corruption. That was a very, very bad decision. We should have been pushing for peace, we should have made an agreement,” the former Pulitzer Prize winner insisted.
US President Joe Biden basically “blew off NATO in Europe” by telling allies that he is backing Ukraine with its “totally corrupt government,” Hersh added. The journalist also pointed out how Kiev glorifies Stepan Bandera, “the great pro-Nazi who killed Jews like crazy during World War II.”
“It’s just silly not to right away assure the Russian government that we weren’t interested in making Ukraine a member of NATO,” Hersh stated, referring to long-standing concerns in Moscow. “NATO didn’t want Ukraine anyway because of the corruption.”
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, as well as Under Secretary for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, are all “very hawkish,” Hersh said. The trio “pushed Biden very hard” to go ahead with the sabotage because “they have long-standing incredible hatred for [Russian President Vladimir] Putin. It’s almost personal, I would guess,” Hersh claimed.

No mistakes at all. Its intentional. Hersch should know that by now.
Neocons are as smart as Joe Biden and about as eloquent as Dear Leader.
Clearly we are being led by a group of political agitators with literally NO other discernible skills.
Every leadership position in every department is filled by an affirmative action applicant.
And we’re teetering on the verge of WWIII. What a nightmare.
Old adage: “Never underestimate Joe’s ability to #%$* things up!” comes to mind.
you are correct ...
BiXiden is a pipeline h8er.
And an anti American, CCP puppet.
Biden, Blinken, Austin, Nuland, all Kagans and the NEOCONS in State/DOD/CIA are all vampires that feed off our collective lust for blood. This is the most preventable war in the history of wars.
It seems that the US security institutions are populated with the products of postmodern education. They are so certain they are right because they are following the chosen “arc of history.” Lightning bolts and electric chairs arc, not history.
“ Neocons are as smart as Joe Biden and about as eloquent as Dear Leader.”

Hush… they’ll be here momentarily calling us all “Putin puffers” (or whatever it is they call us).
You people gonna run with what Hersh says just because it’s anti-Biden? Wait until the next conservative gets in. How many of his investigatons can be verified? There’s money in naysaying and being the devil’s advocate. You can be sure he’s not the only one peddling stories. DC is full of them. Law degrees from Yale/Harvard get taken seriously true or not.
I think the "leadership" positions are filled with
affirmative action mediocrities and morons! .
But the Zelensky fans will be along momentarily to explain how supporting the Biden/democrat foreign policy program is actually a good, conservative thing

One expects a country's top leaders to be strategic and long-term in their decisions, to know the minds of others, and to be able to calculate consequences.
The decision to blow-up the Nord Stream pipeline is none of those things. It was short-term, close-minded and extremely arrogant. Did anyone in DC consider how this will have very grave long-term consequences to the USA's reputation, particularly in Germany?
“Clearly we are being led by a group of political agitators with literally NO other discernible skills.”

And most of the voters don’t care. Ineptitude, ignorance, corruption and national consequences mean nothing to them.
We are truly living in a national nightmare. At least until something breaks, and it will.
From the very same people who royally screwed the Afghan withdrawal. The hubris of this brain-dead group is staggering. But then again, Mitch McConnell is right there with them insisting Ukraine is a top priority for most Americans.
Ignorance means nothing to a big chunk of the country because they themselves are too ignorant to recognize it. Its horrifying.
What's weird is your desire to discredit him and unwillingness to believe Biden would do such a thing.
“Impossible to Believe How Dumb this Leadership Is”
Corrected.
And what Conservative will that be? The last true Conservative in office was Calvin Coolidge. And don’t start with Reagan , he never really was that conservative.
That’s true but I just wonder if this relic tool isn’t being played…again.
