so in terms of invest starts of development, agriculture, minding also because they've been developed. we've also created some innovative measures 2 to 2 clips. the scenarios, way we can ma'am, you know, which was all one products that really i haven't processed yet. the only 10 and you said that includes yet you're not the manual for money publishing that includes them, you know, level for free pass, nickel, freedom of movement, challenges that i'm staffing for them and definitely builds and democratic lights as we intend to the next year. the biggest area of congested university has been the issue of the test at all with the pointing stations and also a big issue. so each of us keep that author intel in the hughes, by the very nature they want to old elections as an equal without democracy. and this one of the things douglas been in the forefront of fighting katie forms have
10:31 am
been putting bustle for a song since 2018 up to date that there must be fund i, mendota phones, the federal debt by the area of contest issue. but what we have felt is the biggest head to one on the side of this has been the close of the democratic space. and obviously the i tug on us is the non technical position. you know that we are in talk good to a political bunch of financing that mind wants to get away from us. but we've managed to overcome that old struggle. we're given charges to pay almost 1000 years dollars for every member of parliament that is was equaling to 2 110000. yes. tell us $20000.00 for potential come did, for example, need to go to a position which had been under attack in us out. we will manage to make sure that we release the resources things to the citizens effort in these and baldwin implemented to end the task for it's one of the small lender on the moon, but for india it represents one giant leap for it to attempt such space exploration,
10:32 am
the country has made history by becoming only the 4th that touch, done only the very 1st to do so on the side, pull up the lunar surface, prime minister and are in promoting the 3rd. the successful mission belongs to all of humility. well, the spacecraft had blasted off from southern india last month, though it successfully touchtone if can begin exploration of an area where no other space past how's going to be for the homeless now? part of the moon's permanently in shadow. and ted holds them. fortune reserves of frozen water and precious elements. the successful indian mission comes just days after russia's attempt to be the 1st constraint to reach the side post. and in disappointments, when its modules slammed into the lou nurse or either to witness the visit to the pro stokes to do is next council peter in guest, a head and movements for a fiery won't today title ukraine's western states that they had the
10:33 am
10:34 am
these plans will fail to the crossing ukraine's fades. i'm joined by my guess. erin, good in philadelphia. he's a political scientist historian, as well as author of american exception empire and the deep state in raleigh. we have re, mcgovern, he is a former c. i a analyst and elizabeth we cross and natalie morris. she is post of the redacted podcast white cross top roles and the fact that means you can jump anytime you want. and i always appreciate re, let me go. you 1st. um, we all know it's, it's safe then to reach the media and then in the west that the counter offensive is not going well. we also know from the wall street journal, again regime media, but it was never thought to be, it would work out very well any way. um and, but they let it go forward. but at the same time, i'm here with the state department and pentagon officials talking about post war realities. i mean, i don't know how we get from
10:35 am
a trailed counter offensive to talking about post war realities. can you connect that dot for me? go ahead, right? yes. peter, are there finally trying to act like the best versions in the gospel of matthew? you remember those virgins just some of them bored extra oil and extra shells for their 155 millimeter howitzers. they got to go to the wedding. the ones that ran out of the mission vision. in other words, there's been no real planning for it happen here. your grands are out of munition. and yet the president united states, and here's the lieutenants, keep saying russia has already lost the war. yeah. bottom line here, bottom line, the person is delusional. ringback he would speak in, in maine or last friday, and he said, you know, who could save the world,
10:36 am
who couldn't bring the person who couldn't bring the whole world together. is not may, but the president of the united states can only he can. and then a cited madeleine albright for god sakes, a, you know, we are exceptional, we're indispensable. and you know, the aaron is written the whole book about how accept true and where you are. it's go to all folds already flat. meanwhile, has to complement i missed approaching, i'm being very cautious or very gradual. and you're with a delusion or impression that one doesn't want to put his back against the wall earlier than one pastor. yep. natalie and elizabeth. well, ray is already mentioned, so i'm going to pull it forward. we had a anthony blink and the secretary of state, and the president, the united states saying that russia's losing a or has lost. so natalie, did they already implying that ukraine is one? i mean, it is kind of a binary when lose. go ahead. now. yes. and we saw that when cnn talked to
10:37 am
president trump recently a few months ago, and they said, who do you want to win or lose as if it is a binary? as if there's just no nuance in it. he said, i want the dying to stop indicating that there is sort of an option for peace. if we all understood the nuance, the problem is that the west sort of feels like all of ukraine is being just bombed to oblivion by russia. you know, to their chagrin, but they have no way to stop this. they don't understand the offerings of peace talks. they don't understand that the war has been concentrated in the don boss for almost 10 years now. this lack of nuance enables them to continue to sell the war and enables them to sell the idea that if we don't stop hooting, he's just going to keep on going all the way to where i live been, which is the western most part of europe. that, you know, all of a sudden this will be russia if we don't stop this regime of putin. and this lack
10:38 am
of nuance is lack of studying this inability to rewind the tape is what allows them to sell the war to americans. so that they, it just, you know, they accept it, they accept the same price as they expense what the president says. they sell it to a respective of the realities of the ground. that's what we're trying to. absolutely, but i think what's important is just today or just recently on military dot com, there was an open call for a draft inside the united states. and i think that that's important because the previous floors in the middle east really didn't cost the middle or upload classes very much. it was farmed from the poorest among the amongst us. so we didn't have to feel it. if you were an educated upper middle class person, just like, oh, that's too bad, right? but if there is an opportunity for a draft, if it cost actual american lives, we might feel quite differently. i have a teenage son now. i absolutely don't feel like any of the wars,
10:39 am
but the united states has been involved in the last 40 years or something that i would want to sacrifice my son or anybody else's son. and it's different when it involves your husband, your enough. there's your brother in groups on, but it is what is interesting aaron, is that we have us congressman lindsey graham, for example, wanting the ukrainians to give up their sons at a whim or for for ideology. aaron, i mean, you know, this is what makes it really whimsical because the us in many ways because it can print money into oblivion the, the, me, the chickens will come home to roost eventually on that. but the, they can print all the money they want. and they can buy all this extremely expensive hardware and send it to ukraine, but they don't lose forces. and that is part of what part of the cynicism of this war, aaron? yeah, absolutely. the ukrainian losses are pretty staggering. now. i mean, 400 that over 400005 many accounts,
10:40 am
which is that's how much the us last fighting world war 2. if you add up both theaters, pretty much. so this is and this is a much smaller country. and so the idea that they're going to somehow turn this around is preposterous at this point. and yet they're saying this, you do, it does raise the question is by unseen i'll uh, or is he being misled or is he, does he just delusional in some other way? or are they just trying to somehow limp along and say we're waiting, you know, everything's going great and hope that they can do that until the election or mean it, it's become strange because you at some point they have to be aware that the reality is going to is going to come into play and be brought to bear on the perceptions of people. and it just reminds me of karl rove. and that statement he made a ron suskind. it's always attributed to call rosalie. we're an empire now and we
10:41 am
make our own reality. and we're seeing the end of that cycle, which really began at the end was the, in the world, or to the dropping of the nuclear bombs, which was totally gratuitous. and the way that the us has just fix explains the way that it one of the world to be understood by people and pretty much and forced that as much as it could. and, but the more, you know, the more the empire kind of, it comes over extended and praying, the more that the narrative just stops conforming to reality. yeah. but we're in that stage now or nothing makes any sense. it doesn't make any sense to me cuz i in aaron's right, right, right. but then one of the problems that i'd be a symmetrical element of all this is that russia is couch this all in its security concerns. the west ignores them. russia will enforce them. but they, the u. s. primarily in it's in, in nature world, they're finding an ideological more per, had gemini, and not about security. and that is why it's so a symmetrical re well, so russia, as you say peter,
10:42 am
it's an existential thread. and just look at what made g h here. so form of pressure to, to just a few days ago about being required to use nuclear weapons in the unlikely chance the nato shyster prevail. so is it an acre essential threat to nato or to the united states? well, not in re out for the tech terms, but in a logical if it will. it jump minister terms. yeah. it is. yeah, yeah. so like my break but rate, they made it that way. they framed it that way is some kind of moral crusade. it the and, and that's what makes it even more dangerous because these people look at victoria know and got a promotion for goodness sake. okay. these are idea logs, and you cannot negotiate with audio logs re and they're also delusional. okay? they're not gonna,
10:43 am
when they're gonna have to face up to the possibility of the actual when definitively, actually it has enough troops in place to do that. so what we'll bite and do that's really the questionnaire, right? of administrative normal haven't, you know, should there, there certainly will be out of this cluster. i mean, it will, is now a fight, say well on that top shelf. they're the one that has the lock on it. those are the many noakes will they do that? i would not would put it passed. so i was. that's why you know, natalie, the amy ray is absolutely right. and this is what i've been arguing all along. is that, you know, red lines mean nothing to these people here because they believe that they're, you know, they, the angels are on their side and that they must win the end. and because they have that perception logic, he loads them natalie. right? but as an american living abroad, it never ceases to amaze me how just being american affords me some kind of cool
10:44 am
points. because america is so good at selling an image at x sporting cultural capital, right? and so for that reason we can sell anything and get away with it. so what the hell was there to pay for the wars in the middle east? not really much. we were able to leave a smouldering wreckage and go home and what did it cost? well, not the media leads and their families and so for that reason we continue to sort of think that this is a good template, right? but the idea of, i mean, you're right, it's the, you know, the idea of selling something that you are too afraid to push back on. so for instance, weapons of mass destruction, even if you believe that that was not a possibility, it still was too scary to push back. because of this idea of your family and smoldering bruin's. now we have the same, the same weapons of mass destruction is being used as the narrative of nuclear weapons. and if it was going to say that we sent out around with that,
10:45 am
but not but natalie. again, looking at being rational and being using logic, the united states never would have invaded iraq if it did have weapons of mass destruction. i mean, nobody's right. or they need a price to flip that around, repeat it because they knew they didn't have it. that's why they did have the invasion here, but this they have a hedge, a monic mine site is in place here. i have ok, right, but my air study is the media and so the median knew that there was no weapons of mass destruction. they knew that there was no mounting a forest on the border to create. they knew that and shows not to broadcast it. and so what i'm most interested in is why is the media picking up the state department lies and running with it going into a war where we've been there before? no. well, i thought you didn't see what ray was doing, but yeah, i'm gonna ask ray what his name is. oh, using his fingers far. when we come back from the break, i'm going to jump in here. we're going to continue our discussion on ukraine. say state without the,
10:46 am
the, the, the lake by call a magical place has to go. ice clean water is a dramatic geography. and of course, a unique echo system which is developed over the past 25 to 35000000 years. and of course, a place like this just seconds, you've come and experience at all for yourself and learned visions coming up on our team international the the welcome back, across software, all things are considered. i'm peter roosevelt,
10:47 am
remind you were discussing ukraine's fate. the okay, before we go to re, i want to go to aaron, 1st in, in philadelphia, i'm glad that natalie brought up a erac because, you know, it was a catastrophe and it was, there was no victory there. afghanistan, there was no big hurry there. um, olivia, up north have forget, still living with the consequences of that even now as we speak right now and i here, but the air and you know, all of those conflicts, catastrophes they didn't directly affect the united states. natalie is absolutely right. if you're a middle class family, you probably saw it on the news every once in a while and probably got tired of it. okay. but this is very, very different. and something being a scholar of the cold war, i'm a product of the cold war, a child of the cold war. is it one thing great powers bit and do you didn't go
10:48 am
after each other, you had proxy wars. this administration wants to take out a nuclear power and have regime change. now, i know people have fantasies, but you know, the reality of that is that that is the, the recipe for catastrophe for world war 3. aaron. yeah, absolutely. it is really the continuation of, of policies that do day back to the early cold war of the nato did. and the iron curtain didn't have to exist. and the way that they did they did. so because the us economic planners, the pinnacle of wall street power, people at the council on foreign relations and the oligarchs, they answered to decided that they needed to make western europe totally aligned with the united states and are not trading with the soviet union or the eastern bloc, and so this is a big part of why you get nato and the cut, the iron curtain. and you know, throughout once the cold war in a few years later in the mid ninety's,
10:49 am
you have china and russia issue in joint declaration saying that they, they believe this would be a multi polar world. and it's a few years later that we start seeing the, the us like, you know, launch is a c, i a launch is an al qaeda branch to deal with al qaeda and then months after that. okay, to says it's going to attack the united states, which is an interesting chronology. but all of these incursions into this whole, the near abroad of, or of the former soviet union. these lead up to, um, to what, really, what so the, to the, well, it's like a prelude to the global war on terror, which is a way to also sure up air, contested areas of the, you know, energy infrastructure, the world. and then also, you know, ukraine. the brzezinski writes about this explicitly in the late 19 ninety's commissioned by the council on foreign relations. his book, the grant of the grand test board, he writes about how you create is pivotal entity. if you want to make sure that rested in china, don't come together and force of counter hedge a monic block. you need to control these areas and emissions ukraine, specifically. so this is the latter,
10:50 am
and i think the terminal stage of this whole initiative, you know, in the project for a new american century where you can call it and it failed with the 911 wars and ask you to stand on the rack and it failed with the air of spring wars in libya and syria, i mean, i guess they quote, unquote succeeded in libya, but syria, they failed in this still occupying it blatantly legally and so on. and they are and, and losing, and ukraine. and this is really, i think the it's, it represents the collapse eventually i believe, well, well, the air. and so when i, i want to go back to, to ray on this one, went ahead to mine is going down. it doesn't take it lightly. ok if it doesn't take it lightly and what i worry about going to re right now in raleigh is that they get it refused to lose. okay. or they'll come up with some kind of praise. i've already coined it for on this program that the russians didn't make it to paris oversight.
10:51 am
lisben. we won. okay. but on a more serious note array, you know, we've, we've seen the north streamed pipelines blown up. we've seen a major dam destroyed. and what else do they have up there is late because why mike only will concern now is this complet comes to an end eventually is a false flag operation. that's what i worry about most right. well, peter, you may recall that, and so let's see his own ideas about a false flag operation. namely, blowing up is that by russia, the nuclear plants, the largest in europe, they advertise that, and of course, it would be the book, the russia. so we're blamed for it. what was really interesting is just a few days before the videos summit, all manner of western officials, nato officials, are came down on the list again and said, don't, don't waste 100. i don't, the, the russian attack are ends up. oh yeah, yeah,
10:52 am
it should say says dog though and so i'd ski and so when you arrive in this news, it was already under a cloud. are you? why does that have fall out? come into poland and romania and the rest of you. yeah, he was sort of already ostracized. now that was the last straw in my view. i don't see any of balls flags from the west. oh, for sure. a certain weather zone and sky will try it on his own. i will not put a pass to the important thing here is the fact that no matter what tony blinked and says and already said, of course is ah, put you in. did not a chief is aims of, are you applying and taking overall of ukraine? well, you know, like and think so. those were good trans ams, these willfully what mission formed. i prefer to give them the benefit of the doubt . he asked why i don't, he has a long career of being a liar. okay. i mean, he was a great rush to gator as well. okay. he doesn't get
10:53 am
a designated pass in my book and all these people are very maniacal. natalie, when you know, when people keep talking about, you know, bringing peace, bringing this conflict to and, and the west. it says it thinks that they can have an, a meeting in a, in copenhagen now, in jet, in this, in saudi arabia. but there's always a missing piece, rushes never there. and so they're not serious about coming. when they want to do is they, they want to re galvanized the world that has losing interest into conflict at the west. started against russia. are right clearly not because rest or has had an open invitation for peace talks and zalinski passed a law saying that peace talks are illegal. so how can he attend some parties where peace is going to be a discussion? and any time he talks about peace, what he means is increased security guarantees from the west, which he thinks guarantees piece, which have not so far, right. and so they're not serious conversations. and now we see zalinski has
10:54 am
extended emergency powers to keep himself in office pass what was planned and election in october. and so if you're a ukrainian you really have no options here for peace. you have a leader who obstinately refuses, and then every now and again can pretend they're asking for peace. that's what we saw when he address congress just a few months ago. what he meant by piece was increased weapons. and so those 2 things do not go together unless you're in new york on, but you know, again it's lost in translation because of the sort of, the inability to study the past 10 years of this conflict for most people. and so this idea that it had, you know, had gemini, would lose this battle, be able to spin it because we're so good at p r. and then move on. well, if you look at the map, went from the middle east to ukraine, now we'll go to taiwan and try that there. and then i don't know when this same template happened, so just keep going, right. and so we go around the horn. well,
10:55 am
either way, aaron, how, you know, i'm very cynical by watching because i study the media and very cynical it's, i always can't. my default tends to be a griffith. ok. afghanistan was a griffith. ok. you know you had mark milly crying in front of bible. what about the girls and that's a change to knows about money. okay. because it was a good career there. 20 years. it'd be a lot of people made a lot of money off of it does try the country, but by the way, so air and i mean the ukraine. adventure is a griffith as well because i tend to think that people in care of realize yeah, the intake is going to be up eventually. but let's catch it as much as we can while we can aaron. right i, it's hard to that. of course, there are a number of parties interested in eluding ukraine or profiteering office in any way that they possibly can. i don't think that fundamentally it is about a military industrial complex boon dog or anything that straightforward crass well,
10:56 am
i mean it's crass but it's i think it's propelled mostly by the urge to punish russia, especially after russia intervened and disrupted their plans in syria. i think that the us realize that a sort of russia that's going to defend its mirror. broad is a real threat to their long term plans. and that the only place that they could bring this to a head would be in ukraine. and so the evolution, i quote, unquote, fundamentally, i agree with you, particularly, you know, when we look at all of these complex, around the world last 40 years. but this one is against russia's specifically. and that's what makes this different. it makes it different because the way the west has constructed this one side has to win and one loses. that is a paradigm that we've never seen before. aaron, continue, well, is it right? definitely. they will do. i'm sorry, they will end up. they'll end up taking a good chunk of that territory, and i think that what you're going to end up with in ukraine is something that
10:57 am
looks like the 2010 election math the which is the actually you could argue in terms of like justice that, that sort of suitable because i, i wish i would throw that. i wish i had that graphic and because you're absolutely right natalie. i interrupted, you jump in. oh i, i just wanted to say, is it different or is it same when you look at the middle eastern floors? those were an attempts to make sure that various countries did not become friends and present a united economic block. that is a similar thing. it's, it's more geography than it is. um, i don't know. i mean we're trying to describe attentions intentions here. and aaron was giving them the benefit of the doubt. but it is, it literally just about geography is that you are friends with whoever can disrupt unity in that region. and so ukraine is strategically placed in the same way that syria was in the same way, but libya was. and those leaders who had unifying aims were the ones that became
10:58 am
the biggest enemy. yep. yep. right. you want to jump in there, but yeah, one minute before we go to end the program, go ahead. right. well, i just wanted to say that i think what you're driving at here is that this is very different. this is challenging a nuclear power, which was on voided ever since then, since so, so you've got no clear weapons, right? this is what john kennedy warned about backing up a nuclear power into a choice between that humiliating the state and something less than that. that's what we've done here and we've got a better wake up and smell of coffee. meanwhile, let's, let's just talk to the figures, proceed as a gradual attrition. i attrition attrition page and ukraine road have the have those really radical hawks in moscow, prevail over what i consider to be put change approach? well, i think all of us and i'm not original in saying this,
10:59 am
that we all want the conflict to come to an end, because this is a complex that never should have happened in the 1st place. it could have been easily avoided, but there was a certain class of people that were hell bent on making this happen. that's all the time we have one, i think my guess in philadelphia, raleigh. and in lisbon. and of course i want to thank our viewers for watching us here at r t c. and next time remember prospect rolls, the . 9 6 didn't even have done but too much without sale and whistle so nicely really is grand the fish for the night. and that is for it would be a matter for to sell on the printer part of the
11:00 am
status and most recently and stuff which is set to the we welcome the ongoing engagement to fix countries without because we've had many shipments during our brief journey. the group's new development back plays an important role in the development of the countries of the global style that protects family members take the floor of an open session of the group summit discussing the future development of the blog of this style. blushing, an economic system fit for a new era of multi polar. it's a coming out the way live from to 100 is like south africa as we continue all special coverage of the brick summit today to the issue of security in
