Millions of citizens will gather in parks and backyards. They will wear the flag. They will listen to marching bands play military anthems. They will look up at the sky, bathed in the glow of manufactured patriotism, to watch the aesthetic simulation of war bursting in the air. They will celebrate a 250-year-old rebellion against a corrupt king, willfully, aggressively ignoring the fact that they have become the very thing they claim to have defeated: the most ruthlessly armed, globally oppressive monarch in human history.
Especially the 4th generation who have long forgotten the horrors of war. They will listen to Krishna telling king Arjuna as they drive their chariot through both warring parties! Arjuna did not want to fight his opponents but Krishna said he must fight. Besides, he said, no one really dies.
That is very true. It really looks like people have forgotten the horrors of war. But war never stopped. Just not in the West soil. And there is plenty horror stories out there about it. So no excuse for politicians. The guys that used to love violence were the fascists. It was part of their DNA. It is. It’s a shame, war is a horrible thing. Never been in one, don’t want to be. And I suspect a lot of people think war is like in the movies. But that’s a very soft version, of the things that happen. And evil goes beyond our imagination. Just look at the story about using dogs to rape prisoners. Fucking hell
Yes. Deliver us from evil. It has started in Ernest. We saw it build in every war since WW2…which was an extension of WW1.
WW1 was conceived against Germany by the bureaucrats in England and France because the bankers in the City of London and their extension in France were seeing an erosion of profits because Germany was producing better products and that had to be stopped. They used Russia to encircle them. All wars are banker wars as it is today. Nathan Rothschild sent a statement out about a year ago saying if we loose this contest against the east then all will be lost. He is looking at his England going to pieces along with France. So he is looking at Russias incredible real wealth along with Ukraine. He is going to loose.
The most powerful country on earth. And that is a fact. The best at propaganda by far. No match for the others. Just compare Soviet propaganda to theirs for instance. In the 40's and 50's when they destroyed the left totally, they had propaganda saying that if you supported public health policies, you were supporting the communists. They are the best propaganda machine ever created. That's their strongest quality. And as Carlin once said about the American Dream: That's a dream because you have to be asleep to believe it. Countries evolve that way. No way around it. All of them. China, Russia. My view... Anyway sorry for the TL;DR. Love this show, and the Professor. They don't treat us like idiots. All the best, cheers!
I do not agree at all about Iran and nuclear weapons. Iran has as much right to have them as the US does. All countries do (not that I think nuclear proliferation is a good idea, but can the hypocrisy, please.) If Iran is expected to agree to not having them then at minimum Israel should be forced to eliminate its nuclear weapons and nuclear capabilities.
You are 100%correct Bob,If you look at all the countries that have nukes,nobody fucks with them.These continued attacks on Iran from the US proves that very point! These underhanded attacks show the US can't be trusted to keep its word,it has pulled sneak attacks TWICE on Iran while the US and Iran was in negotiations!The US doesn't fuck with N Korea,they have Nukes and that short lil shit who is the grand pooba is way worst than anything Iran has! Christ trump had a love affair with that lil shit!
Point is your not going to stop Iran from getting a Nuke,it's been proven to them they must have a Nuke to protect themseleves Israel fucks with them constantly so does the US and the leaders of both countries have leaders who are so corrupt they have no leg to stand on because trump and Netenyahu is worst than anything Iran has
Iran is the only country with balls to face Israel. They won't get nukes. Too much pressure. That's a warmongering fearmongering tactic from the Israeli right-wing fucks. For decades now. Remember that since the Iran revolution those cunts, US and Israel, plus UK, and God knows what more countries helping, have been attacking Iran. Remember when Saddam was good, because he attacked Iran for the West? What a success story that was...
Poor interview; vague and imprecise questions; no focus; the interviewee is leading the conversation; recommendation for G. Diesen for the future: less is more!
Wars are big business for the people who run and control the US government. And they’re very conveniently on foreign soil. But no one seems to care much about the risks of provoking the world’s largest nuclear power. The US is doing all it can to maintain global hegemony and prevent a multipolar world from emerging.
"Hatred of Russians" is a very superficial explanation, suitable for manipulating the masses. I believe that the root cause is completely elsewhere. An in-depth economic analysis of the causes of Western pressure on Russia would be highly desirable.
Dear Prof Diesen, I have just listened to Prof Mersheimer interview, and I believe that there is something that you have not considered in your analise of Russian’ especial operation in Ukraine. Russian government has not declared war to Ukraine or intended to do so. They just defined two objectives: protect Russian speaking people from fascists attacks liberating the areas where they live in and, strategically dissuade NATO establishing there the militar base they wanted.
But I very much have appreciated the manipulation analises os public opinion is Western Europe.
I am very very glad that you hammered home the extreme and radical erroneous belief that Russia is aggressive and wants to invade Europe. No no No! GERMANY is a REPEAT extremely aggressive violent WAR-MONGER. Russia is prudent. Russia respects human lives. Russia has avoided killing civilians. Russia has 8 times the military manpower. Russia has 10 times the military industrial capacity vs US, Ukraine and Europe. There is little the Ukraine can do as Russia gradually and actually gently gingerly advances to demolishing the Ukrainian-US-NATO-EU warring. The US started this mess and crossed the Russian’s line in the sand. The Russians warned the US back during the Cuban Missile Crisis. How tiring to remind idiots that think Russia is warring on the Ukraine
this is exactly what happened to Germans in 1923 currency collapse. than boycotts of Germany economy by Jews who run the central banks. really started in world war 1 ending the treaty to destroy Germany.. it a golbalist plan . we see it clearly new targets . the answer is don't fall for world war 3= Russia . just take Total control of Ukraine as a buffer zone against the rich people controlling the Jews world
Look across what Americans are doing on July 3rd, and watch on the 4th, we are a country that prides itself on indepence and freedom. The majority of Americans will never give that up under any circumstances. The motto live free our die is in our blood.
That might have been true before the epic ass kicking it got in every war since Vietnam, most of the kids of these super rich won't serve and the rest of the pantywastes are too chickenshit to serve.Then figure in all the corruption of this admin and I wouldnt serve in this crooked corrupt govt
95% of Americans are not gay, not trans, and not pedophiles. We are a proud bread of humans who will take the world to task if necessary. But we have no desire to do that unless you poke us.

"because the bankers" I believe they are dangerous for sure.

Just saw you are a Ranger. Respect buddy.
Maybe, but only at the leadership level, not at the citizen level.

Certainly mind boggling propaganda nothing really new but social media makes it more widespread.The West has lied & lied for years.
The German chancellor is a mad man.
Ludicrous is certainly the operative word.
Poor Glen, you are in a tough spot. I understand as I was in 5 combat deployments, I understand.

Is that your military background speaking?
I spent time dodging Migs in the Med,I earned my spurs,is this measure off pee pees? I'm not impressed
And yes I know, all of this is shear folly. Stupid at its hight.
