  3. Whoever writes this is severely ignorant, too bad, if they knew a thing or two they'd actually be funny AND accurate.
    1) Putin will NEVER USE A NUKE, period, anyone still afraid of this should not be charge of any country, anywhere.
    2) The idea that there is a cabal of evil weapons dealers that create wars to make money is just a really stupid conspiracy theory that doesn't bare out in the real world and can be easily debunked.
    3) Some wars are worth fighting, like the one in Ukraine, if you don't think so then you've been under a rock for far too long.
    4) Sending EVERYTHING that Zelenskyy wants to Ukraine will NOT cause WW3, period.

  9. McMaster is a liar just like the trash that appointed him (in 2017). The "largest land-grabs in history" were
    1. The Treaty of Paris (1783) the British Crown formally recognized American independence and ceded most of its territory east of the Mississippi.

    2. The Treaty of Ghent (1814) all conquered territory in North America was returned by the UK, and commissions were planned to settle the boundary of the United States and Canada.

    3. The Louisiana Purchase (1803): The U.S. purchased 52Million acres from France.

    4. The Alaska Purchase (1867) The U.S. purchased 586,000 square miles, an area more than twice the size of Texas, all for the bargain price of around two cents an acre, from Russia.

    5. The Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo (1848) Mexico gave up 55% of its territory (present-day Arizona, California, New Mexico, and parts of Colorado, Nevada and Utah).

    What the fuck does Covid have to do with "land-grabs"?

    Should we discuss the various Empires in world history?

    You don't need much education to join the Army, right?

    It is absolutely amazing how conservatives put so little value in using verifiable truth when trying to make stupid arguments.

  10. 0:49 "trying to effect the largest land grab, so to speak, in human history." No, I'd say Britain already completed that. I mean the phrase "The sun never sets on the British Empire" existed for a reason. The second closest would probably be the Mongol Horde.

  13. Republicans always pushing FUD – Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt.
    Republicans feed the war machine. Keep the lemmings afraid.
    The Cold War was very profitable, and they would like to bring it back.

  14. I mean, i don't quite understand the criticism with sending tanks to Ukraine though? The narrative that the USA shouldn't aid Ukraine because Putin will go nuclear is self defeating. You only embolden dictators by doing that. Ask Chamberlain.

    It's fair to criticize media outlets for not disclosing conflicts of interest. It might make you question the wisdom of such analysis, claiming it's the "definition of evil" however is ridiculous, we have a front row seat to the actual definition of evil.

  32. That was interesting, make fun of warmongers, while at the same time selling more war in Ukraine bit. I'm curious to see how you're going to handle the narrative where Ukraine is winning this war, when Ukraine finally falls apart. The only reason Vladimir Zelinsky won't negotiate for peace with Russia is because the US and NATO will assassinate him if he tries..

  33. Whoooo! Kablooey! Where do I sign up?! I want Missiles, Tanks, F16 and Freedom!!!! USA! USA!

    In all reality , the EU should end the war by including Ukraine in Nato.

  38. Yeah very to the point of who´s making money of conflicts! The same goes for selling arms to civilians to "protect" the second amendment.
    It seems that arms are not made to defend, they are made to kill and make money of them!

  40. Yeah, as a CDN, in on this provocation, the US does have some biological research facility in Ukraine. Bad placement, if any is good, but maybe worst, considering how an out-of-the-loop nuclear power may see that as too easily weaponizable. So the US & west should be pushed by we peoples into negotiations, yielding Donbass & Crimea & any unnecessary notion to join NATO, as I heard that Kissinger said this over a year ago? Every nation in the world should yield breathing space & self-determination to each other. Why provoke Russia & China to be the first to push the unthinkable? Come on, love life & live & let live. We can reset the global economy into myriad overlapping locally, community-based economies. Full real reforestation can restabilize the climate. Please consider posterity

  45. Well, come on Wall Street, don't move slow,

    Why man, this is war au-go-go.

    There's plenty good money to be made

    By supplying the Army with the tools of the trade,

    Just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb,

    They drop it on the Viet Cong.
