Summary from Col. Macgregor
A dementia patient is in charge of NATO.
NATO is an offensive alliance now.
EU countries have a small defensive establishment and little to no industry. They look to the US for defense (why they can afford ‘universal healthcare’).
US has made their forces almost unusable against anyone other than weak, incapable opponents.
The arrogant in the US thinks Russia is weak, and should be subservient to the US, and that is NOT going to happen.
Now, medium range missile systems are on the table. The US is bringing longer range missiles closer to Russia and China, so Russia China has to respond.
The Europeans may be expressing reluctance behind the scenes to turn NATO into an offensive posture force.
President Orban of Hungary is pushing for a peace plan. EU/NATO members hate him for it.
‘Dementia patient’, is a metaphor for the west.
There is no one in the United States – that is SANE – who is interested in a war with Russia.
Biden and NATO leaders still preaching that Ukraine will prevail, but behind the scenes doesn’t really believe it.
Zelensky is the real totalitarian communist in Europe with what he’s done with elections, free speech, political opponents, and kidnapping old men and young boys from the streets to die for the US hegemon.
Putin: If US NATO allows the launching of missiles or aircraft on NATO territory, those sources will be legitimate targets.
Another nuclear early warning radar in Russia has been attacked by Ukraine. With Russia’s early warning system degraded, it could make them react differently, more dangerously. There will be more guesswork on their part.
Israel
Lancet estimates 186,000 people killed in Gaza.
They’re not even destroying Hamas. They’re just killing civilians mostly.
No news media in the US will publish anything that isn’t approved by Israel.
Israel casualties 6.5 million people the draw from to fill military positions. Up to 70,000 seriously injured Israeli soldiers. 5000 dead or more.
How long can they sustain this? Implode, or go ballistic in the entire region?
Hannibal Directive. It was true. Max Bleumenthal and other talked about it back in Oct 2023.
Israeli soldiers really did kill their own people to prevent them from becoming hostages.
Wow! A sobering account of how vulnerable our naval forces are to modern missiles, appx 27:00 min.
Netanyahu. He’s talking like he’s going to escalate. The final conflict. And that means Iran, Yemen, Syria – all of Israel’s enemies in the region.
He’s banking on US help.
The US is in trouble. It doesn’t have the manufacturing capacity to supply munitions for all these wars.
The US doesn’t have the depth, or surge capability to sustain these wars its starting.
You can support the existence of Israel, NOT support what they’re doing in Gaza, and feel like what Israel is doing is going to do irreparable damage to it.
