Im a mild mannered, laid back guy who almost never gets pissed at anything... But holy shit, listening to Mitch McConnell spew bullshit in his suit while tens of thousands of people are getting slaughtered because of him and his ilk boils my blood
The fact that Trump is (apparently, it's never entirely clear what Trump's actual objectives are, he's a master of strategic ambiguity (the most polite way I can say it)) pursuing the Empire's second-preferred option after recognising that the most preferred option isn't possible, suggests he's not the maverick disruptor of Empire he's advertised as. A cynical man might conclude that he's the antithesis to the progressive thesis, but not yet the ultimate synthesis towards which the Empire is aiming us.
Not even what happened I 2014, or what lead to the Maidan Coup, or what has happened since the early 1990s… I am afraid though that no matter how much sense and facts are presented to the indoctrinated European / NATO Elitist Cult, they will desperately cling to their delusional narrative and force everyone else to submit to it.
Traitors and tyrants, all of them, as is Zelensky to his own people. I know no one who wants any kind of war with China, Russia, Iran or anyone else. Competition? Sure, go ahead. But do they prepare themselves or us for reality, for what is ahead, NO! We have delusional, immoral old people calling the shots and an empty-headed Congress.
Glenn, in line with your (as always) superb analysis, I would like to draw your attention to this interesting discussion from a German geopolitical analyst:
Despite the Trump administration's talk of a peace deal with Russia, the overall US strategy is the same: divide Europe, weaken Russia and contain China
Journalist and analyst Brian Berletic is on the same track:
I don't know what's worse, just how diabolical NATO's plan was, or the fact that the Ukrainian leadership fully understood what they are asked to do and agreed to go along with it.
Great description of what the Sneaky untrustworthy Yankee Whitehouse are all about just like all seats of Power divide and conquer is the Policy but the floppy rug reality POTUS is not dealing with sycophantic lap dogs like Britains PM and the European Union Leaders ohh NO he’s dealing with the People whose Ancestors Won the Second World War and built a Wall dividing a Whole City right in front of their Armed Forces. So Trump and his gang of hyenas could be in for a Rude Awakening because the guys they’re dealing with will not be Bullied by Rich Playboys because they were not Bullied by Hitlers Death Squads they wiped them out. You always write a really good topical article Sir they are always enlightening and honest unlike a Few MSM who will remain Anonymous.
Nothing changed, Trump wants Europe to buy high tech weapons, Musk’s Starlink and Larie’s Stargate. Rare Earths? No Zelensky’s permission needed. Ukrainians mourning their dead heroes, and Russia? Keep on killing Americans even those in French or British uniform.
Your video, professor Desden, with clips of so many military guys and politicians from USA it’s very painful. Realizing that people in my country creep disgustingly with not compassion for the others in this war. We have society’s crumbling worldwide meanwhile these guys reflex an absurd admiration for money and power higher than moral care for any other human being. We got confuse long time ago about priorities for the constant construction of a better world ; now we have the chance of other part of the world doing exchanges and business and we can not accept that because “we like to be the top ones” constantly doing publicity, our cities are a lament and the hypocrisy of those guys selling us that take care of the nation it’s supporting a war of others because it’s economically very convenient to us!! Of course ignoring as well that we can ended in a 3rd WW …. They treat us like Microwave people that ignores all in the comfort of living like couch potatoes, TV on with lots of yellow press and empty talking. Thank you very much for your work as a geopolitical journalist .
Pardon my naivety, NATO was starting to expand to the east from early nineties, Ukraine and Georgia came later into the picture. Do you think these expansions were part of this general NATO expansion to the east or they were specifically planned with the goal of luring Russia into today’s war and thus weakening her? I totally buy the proxy war and weakening of Russia, but for me it’s hard to believe the planning came from long down the road, as NATO expansion to the east started when Russia was not close to be a grand power at that time. Could not be that Americans saw the opportunity and grabbed it ? Hope I make myself clear 🫣
I admire your efforts to back your arguments with facts, as a true historian should do. Therefore, it is difficult to disagree with your analysis. Still, some people label you as "pro- Russian", which is nonsense that derives from their inability to dig deeper into reality and abandon their prejudices.

OVER One million Ukrainians dead and at least 500 thousand Russians dead is a small price for the US Empire to donate. S/ :'(
Russian losses probably don’t exceed 100.000 men
Glen, Would be great if you could compilate the transcript and post it here too. Thanks for your efforts. Have a great day....
i personally much prefer transcripts to videos... i wish more of these types of videos included the option of reading as opposed to watching them..

Glenn, you are an Angel!
Russia is dead in the water if China goes down. And vice versa. So neither will sell the other out.
