Col. Douglas Macgregor and Judge Napolitano discuss United States Foreign Policy Disasters – Streamed live on Mar 19, 2024
The Israeli Disaster
1.44 Israel risking becoming a pariah state, Netanyahu leading Israel down a dangerous path.
3:15 Chuck Schumer says Israel cannot survive if Israel becomes a pariah state.
4:30 85% of the Israeli public supports what Netanyahu is doing. “That may be disturbing to people in the United States – it certainly worries me – but, those are the facts.”
10:10 Netanyahu is betting on receiving unconditional US support to do what it wants to do.
12:28 Netanyahu is intent on seeking a wider war, and the Biden admin is intent on supporting that.
The Ukraine Disaster.
16:10 Expect Russia to push to the Dnieper River, and cross it to take Odessa. Says Odessa and Karkhiv are historically Russian cities, Russian speaking, and will be part of Russia again.
17:50 The disastrous war in Ukraine is a de-facto defeat of NATO,”… no question.”
19:45 On a US NATO vs Russia war over Ukraine: The threat from Russian submarine forces is an infinitely greater threat what the US was facing from the Germans during WW2, transferring supplies to support the war. It took 3 ½ years for the US to just suppress Germany’s submarine forces.
The Afghanistan Withdraw Disaster
21:20 The Trump administration understood that the best time to leave Afghanistan is in the winter. The incompetent Biden administration left in August – at the height of the ‘fighting season’ – because it wanted the symbolism of getting out before 9/11, but it didn’t make sense to do that tactically or strategically.
21.50 The leaders in charge of the Afghan withdraw – specifically the military generals in charge of advising the President and, commander of the withdraw – owe the American people an explanation.
29:45 What happened with the Afghan withdraw was a national embarrassment and must not happen again.
