[000:00:00;00] sitting on forward deployment bases striking at an enemy armed with ak-47s, remotely controlled mines and sometimes mortars or rockets, very, very low intensity combat, here we have a high-tech non-nuclear war that can escalate into a nuclear one. obviously, neither we nor the russians want this, but we have a wild card in israel, they have nuclear capabilities. we don't know what might help. reason for its use. in this case, of course, the result is unpredictable, and i think that most of the world will turn away from israel. now only the muslim world is against them, but of course the geography will expand if they go that far. there are too many unknowns and variables. and you know, at the beginning of such a conflict, everyone thinks that it will be local. we will only have to deal with hamas, maybe hezbollah. this doesn’t happen,

such things are always for... many of our military reserves are in ukraine, and we left ukraine in ruins, the country is on life support with half a million dead, that we what will we do to israel if we continue in the same spirit? in the words of secretary of state blinken, who is looking more and more like our commander in chief, there is no room for negotiation, no room. hamas must be destroyed, we must enter gaza. in that case, i think we are on a very dangerous path towards armageddon. you believe that american troops will be physically involved in the invasion of gaza. i'm sure that will happen because they have american citizens hostage and we have made it clear that we will help the israelis in the release of these hostages. again,

problem. how to get the hostages out when you 're fighting in such an extremely vile complex environment that will prevent them from simply executing the hostages as soon as you step into gaza. i think the israelis understand this, i think our leadership in washington knows this, they may even have decided that if this happens it will be a tragedy, but the ultimate goal of destroying hamas requires such a sacrifice, once again, it is a matter of collective punishment , advised the americans, advised everyone to listen to the speech king abdullah of jordan in cairo, in which he made it clear that he considers what happened in israel to be a heinous act, and hamas is hated for their barbarity and savagery, but he also notes that the collective punishment of 2 million people is unacceptable both from the point of view of international law and on humanitarian

grounds, that's the problem. and as americans see more and more destruction, as well as more and more videos and photographs from the gas, in which children, women, old people are dying, they are being killed, israeli support will be weaken, at the same time, the anger and hatred within the region, which already does not like israel, will be phenomenal. so, israel is doing what i think no one has ever done, at least in memory, which is to unite the sunnis and the shiites against themselves. that's why i think we have a responsibility to save israel from itself, but that's not a popular position. now there is only one position, bomb, everyone applauds. do you think that this war, if it starts, according to you, it will be so, how will it affect the american domestic politics. war has traditionally been used to suppress dissent. can you

imagine what will happen in this? well i think they will try, fortunately thanks to people like elon musk who bought twitter, ended censorship or suspended it, the truth is getting to the americans, but the americans will understand pretty quickly if two things start at the same time, a war abroad, a war here, but remember the economy and financial situation right now? if you turn on any of the business channels, for the first time in my memory, many analysts are talking about the fed losing control, about rising interest rates, about the inability to deal with the $33 trillion sovereign debt, and this is the tip of the proverbial iceberg, we already have americans suffering due to inflation, now we may face deficit, we have practically

exhausted our strategic assets. oil reserves , if the strait of ormus is closed, if the sued canal is closed, we will be in big trouble in the short term, is that exactly how quickly we can recover? all this, how many refineries we can get back online, how many wells we can drill, not very many, so depleting the strategic oil reserve was a very serious mistake, we will become poorer, plunge into chaos and be attacked, but we will win important moral victories, right? well, in our attempts to side with israel and help them defend themselves, we have chosen a different path. and put morality aside, in other words, how to help some without committing a war crime against others, that is the problem collective punishment, this is a problem of gas destruction and an attempt to exterminate its

population, this is unacceptable for us americans. i think that if you met one of the most ardent supporters of israel in the united states and said to him: "are you ready to exchange the lives of several hundred thousand people all." gas on the lives of those killed by hamas. in the end, hamas and the palestinian jihad, in several waves of attack, they lost from half to 3,000 people. they're dead. now we see about 500 dead civilians. how many more deaths will we have? will we see? can this be morally justified one way or another? i think many americans will wonder why. i say it would be better if we had time to cool down. i am glad that the israelis are expecting additional naval forces to arrive at bases in the mediterranean, as well as additional equipment, missile defense capabilities , and so on. but we need to use this

time to think carefully about how far we want to go, because right now it's a one-way road to regional war. and i don't think anyone really wants that, when you think about it carefully, so: erdogan, no matter how slippery we think he is, his willingness to mediate can be compared to a bright light in a very dark sky. and we should pay attention to this, because we do not want a regional war. it will destroy us economically, our affairs are already bad. we have already suffered because of the stupid intervention in ukraine to destroy russia. now russia is stronger than ever militarily over the past 40 years, it is ready. to intervene on iran's side, we must seriously think about it. last question: do you know of any leaders in the us, politicians, military, people in the biden administration who are clear thinkers,

that is, their thoughts are focused on the long-term interests of america, do you know such people? yes, there are such people, the problem is that they do not occupy high positions in the government, their voice... analysis of views, they do not reach those in power. listen carefully to the words of secretary of state blinken, he absolutely unequivocally stated: we are going to destroy hamas, no matter what. essentially, this means a regional war, and if anyone thinks that everyone will say: “oh, we are afraid of america, we will not take such risks, then...” they are mistaken, they will not be afraid to attack israel because of a possible confrontation with us , we are no longer as strong as in ninety-one, they know this, our economy is very vulnerable

, let's face it, so there are such people, but they are not heard and will not be heard in the current environment, duk mcgregor, thank you very much. we keep prices low, grain waffles at 59,999 vtb team, with you, with the vtbon application, transferring money quickly is convenient, coolly invented, and by whom, invented the topic, for whom transfers are an opportunity to take care of those who are far away, they always remember us, we came up with vtb debit card and an application for yourself, so that your life becomes more convenient, switch to otb right now, this is the ecology of the city, this is a contribution to the health of our children, this is clean air, they are talking about switching transport to methane, about protecting nature, but

army, originally from izyum, kharkov region, in at the beginning of the russian military special operation, i was in mariupol, at one of the checkpoints, but when parts of the dpr militia began to approach the city, i decided that i would not fight against them, the trenches there had already been torn up, so i left for soche, at that moment because i i understood that i have relatives in russia, but i didn’t want to fight against the russian people, so to speak, that is, you already did it then. yes, i made my choice in advance that i would be on the side of russia. captivity, several months of checking documents from the personal file and biography. when the investigation established that he was not involved in war crimes, the former soldier in the ssu was offered to help his own at the front, he agreed. more than sixty

former ukrainian prisoners of war are already studying in this training center, each of them they have their own story of the path to a unit of the russian army and their own answer to the question: on which side is the enemy, can they be trusted with weapons - a question that previously worried many instructors, but after spending several classes and talking with them, it disappeared on its own. lived on that territory at one time, lived with that power, and we realized all of this and felt it for ourselves, slightly, as they say. everyone around us also felt it, saw it all from the inside, that is, there are some kind of grievances or non-offenses, or they understand that this should not happen, not it must be, it turns out that our grandfathers fought, say, against fascism, nazism , but now we had to do this, which is now enlightening there, the infringement of this russian language of everything, shooting in tera is carried out with live ammunition, they are ready to fight for their

new homeland, because their families live in the territories of new russian regions, a fighter called meren from volnovakha, the first to count how many hits, 26, 26, good, says that during his military service in the ukrainian army , he was never taught how to handle a machine gun correctly, now a young fighter is undergoing an intensive course, because he will have to fight on the front line of fire, at the training ground three rounds of ammunition for his entire service, oh well, but here... how many have you already fired? well, there are already four horns, no more, six, six horns already , well, how effective, well, i already know how to hit the target , it’s not in vain that the instructors work with us, to defend the homeland, the initial task is to carry out the tasks set by the commander, and you have the homeland where, and where is your homeland, russia, joint. while classes are still being held here,

not everyone hits the mark, so just so they won’t end up on the front line, they will undergo a mandatory training course with shooting with tactical skills, they were carving next to him , which in ukrainian means small, he is from mariupol, he served as a tanker, now they are training attack aircraft, are you mentally ready for assaults? well, of course, if i’m even ready here, from 2016 to 9 he was there serving as a foreman of a tank battalion of the fifty-sixth separate motorized infantry brigade of the ukrainian armed forces, which was located near mariupol. then, according to the minsk agreements , heavy weapons were withdrawn from the line fire demarcation. tanks were fired only at firing ranges, i worked mainly with documents, receiving a good salary , the only thing that kept me going was that we did not participate in any such battles, in principle i felt comfortable, that is, well, like work, i came to work, especially when we were at the ppd, that is, i’m at home, i came to work there, did some documentation, i worked at the headquarters, some

airports, that’s it, that’s it, and home, i ’m fine with it, i i get a normal salary, then the working conditions changed and he wrote care report. from service, the battalion combatant came, with whom i didn’t find a common language, as if having already seen enough of such comrades when he comes - at first, when we were screening out people, and then when the compad says that the percentage is very important, and says, this here’s a drug addict, but he says he understands technology or something else, we’ll leave him, i say, well, how can that be, i say, he’s an inadequate person, i say, he’s a drug addict, i say, he needs to be removed somewhere, no , he will, i say, i need interest, well, these are the moments. some, well, i didn’t want to be in such a unit , but i no longer wanted to serve in general, i already wanted a civilian life, well , there were a lot of drug addicts left, but how can i tell you, well, probably 70 percent, the battalion is essentially well, not that specific drug addicts, but everyone definitely has some kind of problem, either with alcohol or with drugs. during the start of the special operation in

mariupol, he was with his relatives, detained by our military during a document check, he says that now he feels freer than ever for what does not suit him, calls himself a real ukrainian? no, i’m ukrainian, i don’t give up my nationality, as it were, i’m ukrainian, but i, i’m not fighting against ukrainians, i’m not fighting against russians, i’m fighting against nationalism, the imposition of nationalism, the forced imposition. and against the dictatorial regime, which dictates everything, do this, do this, this is wrong, this is wrong, i don’t want anyone to tell me anything, now i am free, namely, who is the dictator, the president and those who control it from above,

naturally, well, this is, well, in a small way, even i would not say an educated, but a thinking person, in ukraine, those who stayed there, in that territory, understand this, some understand, then not really, some are gagged , that is, well, it’s like modern society, the way it’s structured, i’m on the edge, so that it doesn’t concern me, so that it’s somehow there, they can’t rise now, people can’t rise up to say no, they see that now they mobilize by force, they die, there are sons, husbands, well, they are missing something, i can understand what, of course, well, i think, maybe, following our example, let’s say, who, not that they came to their senses, who made the right choice, maybe , following our example, they will look at us as people like me there, like the guys, maybe

, in principle, they will finally stand up and say, no, a cadet with the call sign lesheya served in an anti-tank platoon for a year in 2015 upon mobilization, in 2020 he went on a contract, but after serving 4 months he broke it, in january last year his daughter was born, the family lives in mariupol, your wife has already received a russian passport, you agreed to fight now, it turns out that side of the russian army, for my own, i’ll even say this, for my new homeland for russia , since i have a family here, well, a wife, a child, children and territories, i stayed here, i haven’t moved anywhere, i have nowhere to go, my home is here, this is... my land, well, the land, my relatives, well, that’s it, yes, i have a father who a year and a half ago was, well, for some reason in skadovskaya, this is the kherson region, there were no hostilities there, i don’t know why he left, although they didn’t have there, you know

, so that our uncle is there against russia i am a former military man in russia, the question of readiness to point weapons towards those with whom i served before is fundamental, and we ask it to everyone with whom we managed to communicate, from this group of cadets, there is an assault and you see a colleague, are you mentally prepared for such situation for the civilian workers there in the fifth, sixth year, i’m ready, i’ll explain why, because i will already, well, understand, if let’s say, well , it will be a combat situation, if i don’t do it, then he will, i’ll already be there, and he will do, and he will do, because i will already be considered for his enemy, and he will do, firstly, why will he act like an enemy, secondly, he will be under some kind of substance, well, counteraction, well, like they are under drugs, i heard and know that they care about this now ... especially now the americans are feeding them there, they walk around like zombies, well, i’m just saying, clouded, that’s it, he didn’t even

think about it, he just broke his military service contract because of the inadequate orders of his commanders ukrainian army, and put an end to the severance of relations with the kiev authorities when in elenovka, where he was together with other ukrainian prisoners of war, missiles were fired into the ssu, dozens of people died, then it became clear to him that he, like others, wanted to be disposed of in kiev, therefore... for the same reason we remove recruits so as not to give away their location , i personally sat like this on this elenovka, they said that the russians laid it from the inside, well, guys, well, i was there, and i already told this from ukraine, well, who are you telling, i saw it all, well, how it all happened, so yes, as i say, when they were in captivity, one thing happened, here as i’m telling you now, the relationship, here’s the feed, that’s all, everything was fine, there was no one there, no one killed, no one cut. you, when they leave for an exchange, they tell you, i just find out later, i’m in shock, well

, this didn’t happen here, and how everything happens there, well, when i served, there was no such thing, this is what happened to them there now, that’s why i’m appealing to them, that if they themselves can’t do it, even if their families, their wives, their mothers, let them stop it, because well, a person can’t go stupid like that, so hitting your foreheads against the wall, as is happening now, right? as is happening now, yes, they are just walking, as you know, like a herd of sheep, they were told, go hit yourself, they do it, mikhail petrovich boyko does not hide his name and the fact that he comes from the ivanofrankivsk region, was police captain, headed the department for solving murders, but 20 years ago he moved to the east of the country to mariupol, in 2015 he was called up for mobilization, then remained in the ukrainian army under contract until the nineteenth year, place carrying out the service lugansk region, the city of happiness and the village of lugansk. and now you yourself find yourself part of the armed forces

that are fighting against ukraine. this is how you have this internal transition, but what happened, this transformation , for some mercenary to enter our land and for us to be commanded here, is that some kind of american propaganda was hammered into people’s heads here, this will not happen, guys , do you remember. where are you going, you are going down the wrong road, this road they are going on, it only leads to a dead end. in this impasse, the former ukrainian military man believes, was brought about by president zelensky, who in the elections promised a peaceful resolution to the internal military conflict, but he himself took the path of escalation. he said that i would resolve this whole conflict peacefully, but what happened,

how do you care... i’m still responsible for everything, they will be responsible, they will, as they say, pay for everything. ukraine has already been sold , has already been sold to these americans, i don’t understand, if you don’t know how to lead, get off this helm, let another one take over, and one president extends his hand to the other, they sit down at the table negotiations, we will decide so that everything is humane, in the training center they already feel like they belong, not yet in a common trench, but already at a common table, breaking bread with their comrades in arms, ahead of them is the oath and the main exam, the first battle, this is what the instructors say will show who

has learned what, who is worth what? investment rating, economics, through specific stories, we can reach people, we often talk about money, the amounts are serious, in russia there is a clear and clear signal, at what point you say, that’s it, i did this project, everything i could, i will never say, will russian industry replace foreign suppliers? you need to mobilize all resources, give me a recipe in general, how can you achieve what you have achieved? it seems to you that you are on top of the world, you got up, shook yourself off and went. is russia ready to change?

evolution occurs in any structure. this is news, we continue to monitor developments, the un cannot fully monitor... the situation in the gas sector in cities for the second day there is no cellular internet connection, she told al jazeera about this the palestinian red crescent society, because of this the territory was cut off from the rest of the world , because of this the humanitarian crisis is intensifying, the aid that was previously flowing to gaza in scanty volumes has now stopped completely, due to communication problems
