is a spent the last 4 months rebuilding its military capability. they just restructured their command staff to support large scale, broad based military operations. well that are going to begin very soon. um. time isn't on the train side, rushes, getting ready to deliver the hammer west has nothing left to freed their ukrainian junky and it's james said match. okay, well let me go to you. basically the same questionnaire. i mean, after a $100000000000.00 plus and a for at least most people in the west, it's a stalemate. i wouldn't agree with that assessment, but nonetheless, what is another $100000000000.00 going to do? i mean, you know, kind of, lisa rice and robert gates, they essentially say keep funding this war towards what and what does victory mean? what does the feed mean? who's the winner? who's the loser? go ahead. john in buffalo you've asked for definitions of terms that are in elusive since the 24th of february of 2022. and they remain not only elusive,

but they also are meaning different late to different countries, different governments, different participants in what was a special military operation and what is now defined as a war. i disagree with with scott and, and following a, you know, i am one of those camps that, that there needs to be dialogue because people keep dying and territory kids getting run over twice. however, the west is likely to continue to fund even if it looks like there isn't much movement either way, there's likely to continue to be substantial funding. why, why, what do you think it's a good idea, i mean, took towards what and it's, well the and, and again, the, the definition of l event. and i'm sorry to keep,

you know, giving these young that there are loose of definitions. but for countries, some countries outside of ukraine, some members of nato. they do believe that the end means the territorial borders of ukraine as they existed. 1991 for other nato members. they're fine with the borders as they were on the 22nd or sorry, the 23rd of february of 20. 22. there isn't unanimity, just like there isn't unanimity with respect to the european union and how it looks at ukraine. but the, what we have in ukraine is now become a very, very big business. only when we're is, well, we can agree on that. and i would say that that's one of the reasons why condo, lisa rice and robert gates wants us to go along because of their connections with

the, the arms per manufacturers. it's really good business at the expense of america's great friend, the ukranian. so it's really quite sickening here. let me go to a lionel in new york. you know, line apparently a member of congress wants to erect a bust of zalinski in the house of representatives. how do you feel about that? i can't say because this is a family show me i you say of the right now i want to imagine a thought experiment. we're going to the future 25 years from now. i hope we're still here and somebody asks me to explain the russian ukrainian military operation . why did it happen? who was behind it? what was the information? and i happen to have a list of all of these left ish, crazy, prudent apologise. who came out basically asking whether this was a wise thing to do. william burns connelly's arise, bob gate,

berry posen, posting in foreign affairs, henry kissinger, john mearsheimer, the great, jonathan paul, noam chomsky. mister ritter, whom i respect the late stephen cohen, colonel douglas mcgregor and, and the grandaddy of them all. george kennan the expert, the author of containment, everybody since day one said, what are you doing? you know, i know you, i know, i'm sorry you could have put me on the list because i, but i will, i was saying it months before it happened that this is what we were going to get that in. and, you know, in, with the wisdom of youtube just took it all down, so there is no historical record that actually sent it. ok, keep it on without go to that scene. but, but, but here's what i'm saying. i'm looking at this just as a, almost as a doctor looks at a patient i'm looking at the pathology report to the laboratory. what are we talking about? and by the way, i've got to tell you this in here in my country. more people know about the various

iterations of star wars galactic unions than they do nato. and fact when i, i have this with me. i know it sounds corny, but when any of my friends talked about this, is it here point to ukraine roughly. and you see this, okay, for my other guess, lionel is holding a very small globe. okay, asking where ukraine is. okay. so that's a very good point. scott, let me go back to you. i'll go back to what the, the infinite wisdom of rice and gates here. they also say, ukraine's economy is in shambles and the country is entirely reliant on foreign aid . i interpret that as you break it. you own it. go ahead. scott. well, i mean that, that, that could be, let me, let me, let me, could jump to what john had said earlier about definitions and such, um, well, with all due respect to europe in the united states, no longer get to participate in the lexicon of european conflict. they think they

can by providing money, weapons and such, but um, russia will not negotiate the west to in this. so the west has lost all credibility . after what i just got to explain that a for our viewers or viewers they'd give us that. what would happen? we could start with bush ankle, then we can go to merkel. then we go to holland, if you could, well, you know, i'll put a ball on that because it's very important. go ahead is simply simply could the immense accords which were implementer were, were entered into 2014 minutes to 2015 a were supposed to create a ceasefire and a set of conditions which would have the dumbass remain within ukrainian turturro sovereignty in exchange for changes in the training constitution that would provide a level of cultural, linguistic economy to the ethnic russians. um, if for 8 years there was no movement on it and people always say, well, why not?

there was a narrative that was russia's fault. we now know thanks to forsaken for repressive ukraine merkel, the former chancellor ali, the former french president, all 3 who were involved in the craft meant that it was never meant to be implemented. it was a sham by time for the ukrainians to rearm with the assistance of nato, for the purpose of engaging in armed conflict with russia. so russia will no longer negotiate these people. anybody who thinks otherwise is following themselves. and so if the goal of the west is to continue to fund this conflict, in hopes that ukraine can somehow drive russia to negotiating table, that will never happen. russia is going to win this war regardless. so there is only one outcome. net is a russian victory, and frankly speaking $200000000000.00 of western 8 is not going to be sufficient. because as john alluded to, the west is not of one mind. in fact, the longer this conflict goes on, the further fractured the west, becomes regarding ukraine,

where russia is. anyone have been here and go to john here. i mean, i mean i, i slightly disagree with you and john, actually on that point i think europe is completely irrelevant. i, who cares what the europeans ob, it's a washington certainly doesn't care. i mean, if there's going to be a negotiated end of this conflict, it's going to be moscow in washington, and that's exactly how washington wants to john your reaction. the end, you know, as this conflict as this war has a trajectory and i do believe men disagree with scott. there will be a negotiation. you will see zalinski and president fulton, president soleski in a room. i seriously doubt that i well, a jealous lie on under, under ukrainian, i'm sorry, but under ukrainian law presidents zalinski is not allowed to negotiate with the russian president with keep our fax great. ok, go ahead. this has nothing to do with what's in the law. what's isn't the law, i'm saying that in order for this to and i do expect at some point,

those 2 individuals would be in a room likely in ankara, likely at the invitation requested present air to one of turkey. and what scott has say has said with respect to the past is absolutely right, but the russian federation and got the gun. ukraine are both going to be in a position where neither can do whatever they want. they all have limitations in the you. esther was to talk about no blank, chattering for your brain for anything. and that is true. there isn't unlimited resources. all governments have to make decisions. and at some point, and i think it's probably, you know, probably by the end of this year, there will be an effort to bring this to some sort of so, so that doesn't mean way i'm, i'm, i'm, i, i let you, i'll actually, i'll let you banish in the 2nd half of the program, i have to finish

a. we're going to a hard break. ok. ok. i would greatly what it was. i will go back to you. i promise . but i do think that the, the conditions that you're talking about will be conditions of surrender of one side to the other. that's the only time those 2 guys will meet gentlemen. i'm going to go to a hard break. and after that hard break, we'll continue our discussion on crayton state with ah

ah, in 1884, the german empire began its colonial invasion into namibia. from the very start, berlin encouraged the white colonists to settle in south west africa and take away the best land from the local drives. the germans were actively draining natural resources and using the local population as a cheap labor source. this was causing major protests and led to a rebellion in 19 o 4, the hero and nama tribes rebelled against german colonial rule. kaiser wilhelm the 2nd was fully determined and ordered to suppress the rebellion with the utmost

severity. against the inhabitants of nam may be a germany through it's 15000 well equipped army all around the country concentration camps were built in humane medical experiments over citizens were conducted within the period of 4 years. the germans killed up to 60000 people, among which there were 80 percent of the hero tribe, and 50 percent of the nama tribe. the events in south west africa are called the 1st genocide of the 20th century, and not without reason are compared to the holocaust just 2 decades later after the massacre in namibia hitler's assault unit foot on the same brown colonial uniform which push the world into the chasm of the 2nd world war with

ah, welcome back to crossing were all things are considered on peter labelle to remind you we're discussing ukraine with ok to go back to john in buffalo at the end of the 1st part of the program. or you said that it will be negotiated in an i interject and i said, yes, there will be, will be a surrender. you would like to react to that. go right ahead. the end of this conflict, this war is going to be based upon who's prepared to suffer most. ok, so i don't believe that one is and they're going to be semantics diplomatic semantics not as terms of surrender. but in the end, this is going to have a cessation, whether it's temporary or permanent. well,

by the basis of that discussion, it's regardless of what it was around the books or anything else that because neither side can continue this in perpetuity. well, well we'll see. we'll see about that, but i, i do agree we're concerned. i do agree with you on the point that the, if it's not resolved correctly in the immediate future, it will have it. this will be with us for a very long time line will let me go to you in new york. i mean, is, you know, i, when lensky went to the joint session of congress, you know, i called the peak lensky. i mean, how long is this guy good to have his run with show business and vanity fair and all of that. ok. when there's so many other problems that americans are dealing with. and you know, if you look at the nature of the regime and care,

there is no democracy, opposition parties are banned. there is no freedom of speech. now the orthodox church is being persecuted very much like during the soviet era. i would like to point out to our viewers here. so line, and i mean, what's the flavor of the month is lensky still it for now? until the media and entertainment folks decide it, it's back to prince harry or megan mark, or whatever. but i must ask of a very simple and naive question. what exactly his change now? that was not known initially? why are people asking questions now like, how do you think we're going to wrap this up? do you think maybe concessions? will ukraine be neutral or rum state? do you think 8? 0, one. you know? why? what happened other than just people the becoming a rad, tired of this. needless death. i don't understand what's happened. people act now as though there has been some tremendous transitory change this evolution into something when in fact, everything this started initially is still the way. now i'm going to go back to

what i said as far as my perspective here, this is a, this is a movie line. this is a, this is a, a character, this is a hero, and this is not in any way man to degrade mr. zalinski. i'm telling you he is a media creation here, and nobody knows anything. they can't find ukraine on a map. let me also say something very quickly. in 1962 in the united states, 90 miles from florida was a place called cuba. and the world was about to go to world war 3 over missiles, which basically was about turkey, but doesn't matter. we have the monroe doctrine. we understand specifically the idea of, of territorial compromise and territorial encroachment. so why this is difficult for people here to understand at least the issues i will never know, sir? well, i don't think one of the things i've noticed from my far away purchase or trying to break frame. this is like a world war 2 good guy, bad guy thing. and that there's,

there's this very, it's not nuance is a, is manic. he in on provoked, well, i mean, there's a lot of history prior to the beginning of the conflict, which them the mainstream media is not interested in scott, it's, and i want to bring up issue. and i have talked about numerous times and is something that john a lead alluded to, is that when this conflict comes to an end, the russians are going to make sure it's not going to happen for a very, very long time. not 2 years, not 5 years, not 10 years, it's going to be a lot more permanent than that. go ahead. scott. no, absolutely. that's why there would be no negotiated settlement because a negotiated settlement implies compromised. there is no compromised. chance for compromise was back in april when russia was sitting down with ukrainians in you. in istanbul. but maurice johnson intervene on behalf of nato to shut it down because nato thought a wrongly, that russia was. we can, that russia couldn't sustain this,

injected billions of dollars in an effort to pump ukraine up. that has run its course of the final elements of the 300000, are completing their training, they're soon deployed, rushes restructured at staff or large scale warfare, rushes restructured its defense, industry. rushes economy is not suffering. the notion that somehow ukraine can suffer more is ludicrous. the economy is already dead more, but it's given it's on life support with american money. but as congolese rice and mr. gates of alluded to, you remove that money, the training kind of be dives of general armageddon, serv i team is being put in charge of a future air campaign that will destroy ukraine as a modern nation state. understand this, the russians have made it clear beats at the opening condition still apply. demilitarization denazi's vacation demilitarization is about to occur, the destruction of the training armed forces. d notification occurs with a death zalinski government now will hat with the hands of a aerial campaign,

sustained strategic in nature that will destroy ukraine, is a modern nation state. there will be no negotiated it. i don't know how many times i have to emphasize this in the end, there will be a tokyo bay type solution. september 945. the u. s. s. missouri or the russians will come up with something equivalent and a defeated ukraine will crawl and be compelled to sign a document of unconditional surrender. this is how it ends up because russia wanted it this way because natal forced russia to seek this kind of solution. at john, in the how much more do you think the, the, the west well as the late because you know, they have depleted their stalks of weapons and they have to start making new ones, making new ones is very, takes a lot of time. these are very sophisticated systems training people up here. meanwhile, the campaign is raging on the battlefield here. i mean, unfortunately, the, there's only one really big, important,

high cards. the west can play and you know what that is nuclear weapons. because when you have condi rice and bob gates saying, you know, we cannot afford to lose this, they are escalating this, they are escalating and they're threatening to escalate. this is the foreign policy blob speaking john, your thoughts begin by referencing with scott talking about september my my birthday september the 2nd. so that actually aligns with what happened on the missouri you know, i, i disagree with them with respect to the end, the, the likelihood of negotiations, nuclear weapons. this is not going to be a nuclear conflict and never, never was going to be regardless of who says what, in terms of the wes continued capacity to deliver the product to ukraine. they're going to do so. you know, i would like to share, you know,

i have somewhat of unique perspective here and that is, i began my international work career in what was the us our prior to president gorbachev taking power. and i was in car chief ukraine on the 24th of february. and i've been back since, and i've been to the russian federation and i've been to b l. a roofs and i've been deter kia. so having a, an ability to look at the consequences, commercially, economically, politically, and militarily, what this conflict, what this war has got with respect to other countries, whether it's frontline, nato countries, frontline, non nato countries or other countries and within ukraine. i disagree with scott in terms of the cranium economy, you know, collapsing. well, i mean, the way you have gone to, lisa rice and robert gates,

i'll quote the ukranian economies in shambles. and the country is entire reliant on foreign aid. ok. and they are partially correct. there is, and there remains a private sector in ukraine and i'm not sure i'm not, i'm sorry, but you're talking about you're talking about the black market because that's basically what they have. no, i'm not talking about the black market and, and that's just a, that's a statement, not based on reality. you still have people there that or engaged in trying to do what they were doing prior to february 24, 2022. and these are young people, as well as older people. but it's important to remember that in both countries, the russian federation and ukraine. you've got young people who are questioning what's happening. the russian economy is heard the name, okay,

all right now. okay. okay. now you talked about, you talked about your personal travels, that's pride and personal experience can enlighten you. i live here. so lie, you know, let me tell you something. let me tell you something here. sanctions, if the average russian to be that person did not pay attention to the news, they wouldn't have any idea this country was sanctioned at all. ok. that's how much the sanctions are hurting their. as a matter of fact, import substitution is on steroids right now, which is something i've been saying for the entire quarter century. i've lived in this country, do not rely upon the west. there are toxic, there they lie, they receive, then they cheat. go ahead, lionel. go ahead, well, what you said, which is the most important and that is that how is it that anybody is going to understand what is going on? you know, i'm a child of the vietnam era. i'm a child of the 60s,

and i remember pacifically made, it was so clear, it was so clear that whole human was a bad guy. this was about the domino effect. and now after the fact, we are still trying to decipher what happened. oh, well, still trying to figure out the civil war. what i don't understand is, and this is the worst part. if there's one lesson that the world should know was that you cannot conduct warfare anywhere. when you have huge swash of humanity cut off from reality. you have to lead everybody talk these gentlemen, go add it, no matter the platform, then only then can the world understand what's going on. there are videos i've seen of this. what sanction type of theme with people prospering? this completely defeats the idea yet. you want to talk about propaganda. you look at some of the western stuff, you were say, western american media. and i'm thinking, where, what planet are they talking about?

and here's the best part, because you mentioned before, is boris in natasha. this russo full the kremlin, waiting, boris, and natasha. nonsense. this, that this post cold war attitude. people jump into this immediately saying, if it's russia, it's gotta be bad. it's that simplicity, right. that's how powerful the propaganda is. gentlemen, that's all the time we've had. fascinating discussion, difference of opinion, which is very much welcome on this program. i want to thank my guests in buffalo del mar and in new york. and i want to thank our viewers for watching us here at our to see you next time. remember, ah, a

proud name becomes the african and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. for we came here to new z, no good to speak to hockey legend, he got a lot of you know, what if i told you it was more than just a sport. maybe even an art for deeply philosophical lottie on the claim is the professor and we came to ask them why they won everything. the hockey national for the game is incredible. it's all about creativity. so against would be for everybody. so no later, solicitation is going to be a normal going back. only one main thing is important for knox. ism internationally speaking,

that is that nations, but that's allowed to do anything, all the mazda races, and then you have the minor nation. so the slave americans, rock obama and others have had a concept of american exceptionalism. international law exists as long as it serves the american interest. if it doesn't, it doesn't exist by turning those russians into this. danger is boy man, that wants to take over the world. that was a conscious strategy. so some golf out of it on noon i actually stood off to exhibit in tablet block. nato said it's ours. we move east. the reason us had gemini, is so dangerous, is it the lie? the sovereignty of all the countries, the exceptionalism that american uses and its international war planning is one of the greatest threats to the populations of different nations. if nato,

what is founded shareholders in the united states and elsewhere in large obs companies would lose millions and millions wars business and businesses. good. and that is the reality of what we're facing, which is fashion and and put you in the list to let the medical posted to the, with a, with a condition to make it

a no go for them to push it up with a, a, with a block or is it a voicemail but i am still able to come here to school. she's now i say yes. the way the suggestion is up with

a great a smashed illusion in u. s. history. the latest quarter files revealed democrats peddled fake tales of russian bot despite twitter, knowing there was no evidence of russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election . just take a look at some of the discovery center here. this is a world war 2 elements with clear nazi insignia. our correspondent discovers nazi symbols that and as off battalion headquarters in murray, you pull abandoned after the ukrainian forces retreat from the city. clashes erupt in palestine as 3 residents are killed in 24 hour.
