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.

I can certainly believe how dumb the leadership was. Not at all hard to do.
Amen! This appears to be the point in which Globohomo turned against Putin and Russia.
“Mitch McConnell is right there with them insisting Ukraine is a top priority for most Americans.”
Methinks there is a lot of money being made on both sides of the aisle in this Ukraine fiasco.
Gosh, me in complete agreement with Seymour Hersh. Never thought that would happen.
Best comment was how partisan and agenda driven this corrupt and illegitimate regime is.
one look at ther freak show they hire, fags, lez, trannies, and who know what else makes the agenda driven actions most clear.
This is all about pushing far left insanity as far as can be done.
They act like their days are numbered and are determined to exceed Øbowel’s attempt to cripple the nation.
The only place more dangerous to live than E. Palestine, OH these days is Washington DC.
The DIRTYSECRET is a Biden supporter now that he has been convienced by the MSM... that the Russian HOAX is true, that orange man bad; Putin bad, Ukraine good.
Hersh will soon blow the roof off the White House on Ukraine.
How much of the many billions is siphoned off to the vast corruption from Biden crime family to politicians in Europe and the US. Half?? Rumored we are paying retirement benefits to Uks, salaries to Uks, mostly likely fake payment claims everywhere. Maybe also to the Ruskys. Any oversight??
Your kids will have nothing but record high interest rates forever, if not the USA collapse. Surrender to China without a shot fired.
Mr. Hersh, the State Dept. has worked long and hard these many years to get this war going. They weren’t going to stop it just when their efforts were coming to fruition.
Except “winning” this war most likely was never the priority or expectation.
“We should have been pushing for peace, we should have made an agreement,” the former Pulitzer Prize winner insisted.
Yes, this is so sad but true. I wonder if Trump would have made peace, or perhaps made Putin think twice about what he started. hmmmm
If Trump’s election was verified we would not be in this war
And we would still have Bagram Airbase as a wall between Iran and China
Who are both financing and arming Russia.
Trump wouldn't have demanded an Ukrainian offensive in Donbass or teased NATO membership for Ukraine.
The Biden regime, specifically Victoria Nuland, wanted this war.
The narrative the Biden regime has been too weak is nonsense. It's been intentionally provocative.
The Pulitzer prize means nothing since it was given to an idiot, Walter Duranty, in 1932, who covered for Stalin’s mass murders.
That he is a liberal with no incentive to lie about this as well.
