desire to twirl your finger at whisk but there is no hatred, and it turns out that american marine scott rittererstands this better than we do, listen to his summary people do not understand. how many iraqis did we kill in desert storm operations, and i'm not talking about civilians - soldiers, they began operations. on the very first day, 10,000 people were killed in one fell swoop, if they took refuge in trenches, they did not want to give up. we just buried them alive with caterpillars, but russia never did that, because that's not how russia fights in ukraine. you have to understand that this is not cattle ritter a marine leading the marine corps into battle it is about the fact that russia didn't want this in the first place. now they are telling you, no. and why, because it is the russian general staff that they don’t want to bomb ukraine, they went to the same schools together with ukrainian officers, they were friends from childhood. they served together in the same military academies for the first years, even when ukraine split up, and not in the evenings they called each other friends

but to get more on this now we're going across live to scott ritter, who's a former marine corps intelligence officer, author and analyst. thanks for joining us on the program. scott. so i just want to ask you about the ramifications of such a weapon as the stealth bomber. you know, do you, what do you thing about the timing of it as well? well, i mean, the timing is related to production. i mean, when, when the browse is you, us, military production is that we try to jam everything into a, into a single airframe. and just listening to description this weapon. it's not a bomber, it's a fighter. it's a battle command center. it's drone facilitator. it's everything. um, and this is just means it's going to be an extraordinarily complicated piece of equipment in this complexity brings with production difficulties. so we saw this with the f 35 fighter, and i'm pretty sure that to be 21 bombers going to be going down the same route, a lot of money. and it's not going to perform anywhere near to the level that they expect. what do you think about us, secretary of state antony, blinking recent state

какое дело the same scott ritter talking about a weak ukraine on federal channels is presented as a super megaexpert with a wide profile scott ritter corps veteran of the us marine nuclear weapons control, it believes that the russian nuclear arsenal is significantly superior to the american one. что долго контакты let's talk together about the prison terms of scott ritter, don't listen, don't read the wind was repeatedly seen in online sex scandals with the participation of minors, the first time in 2001 year, he spent 6 months in prison, engaged in online sex, was found guilty of fascist charges, including illegal contacts with minors, of course with such a person, well, let this be a resume, it was difficult for a man to find a normal job, and as you know, even those who live in the united states want to eat here - that is very convenient for the writer and the employees of the russian federation turned up, who, in order to fool the audience and the rock of the unemployed, pretended to be experts in a military operation, this means that russia is not uses his entire military night in the conflict in such a simple way. scott ritteres, an unemployed convict, tu

us easements who forced defense ukraine in the event of an escalation. former us marine corps in tones of the scott ritter says that the u. s. official knows nothing about real warfare. he knows nothing about modern warfare. he knows nothing by russia's capabilities, he has, he knows nothing about american capabilities. he's an air national guard pilot, who flies a small airplane with a limited intelligence collection capability that has utility only and low intensity conflict. so therefore, he's in no position to make a judgement. and it is the, the idea that nato could defeat russia. the nation in 3 days is, is, is simply an absurdity. you will not find any professional military person who would back that up. i think the vast majority of people would say that you're right now, nato has sustainability problems, nato, as mobilization, problems, nato, as training problems, nato has equipment, problems on the idea that nato could even assemble a military force capable of surviving one day on the battlefield with russia is questionable, let alone defeating russia in 3 days. while some in washington brag abou

earlier we spoke with scott ritter, a former marine corps intelligence officer about this, and he says the new bomber won't end up meeting the u. s. military's expectations. there is no doubt that the unveiling of a weapon system of the order and magnitude of the b 21 bomber is done for political purposes. and when i say that, i mean deterrence to put a marker on the table saying this is the united states. this is our capability, this is the weapon we have. um, you don't want to mess with us because you don't have anything that's capable handling this weapon. this is just means it's going to be an extraordinarily complicated piece of equipment. so in this complexity brings with production difficulties, we saw this with the f 35 fighter, and i'm pretty sure that to be 21 bombers going to be going down the same route, a lot of money. and it's not going to perform anywhere near to the level to day expect. meanwhile, the u. s. secretary of state told cnn that nato is looking to invest in soviet era weapons systems to help arm ukraine. we're looking at every option to make sure that again t

more to discuss with scott ritter, a former us marine corps intelligence officer. welcome to the program. rebecca costler says the u. s. has to step up its support of ukraine to help the lensky way . do you think the american public is comfortable providing more aid at their own expense, especially given the countries current economic state. i believe that the american people will do what the american congress supports, and we've seen both democratic and republican support for continued a funding of the ukrainian military and economic systems. it keep in mind that even though america's going through a difficult financial time right now, russ, a phobia, has been ingrained. so ingrained in the american psyche that it doesn't take much to convince the american people that there is a threat emanating to emanating from russia. that's worthy of the financial investments that we're making in ukraine. i mean, as a victory even possible, the by that administration is reportedly set to boost efforts to try weapons sat to ukraine. should we expect more accountability or could

scott ritter, a former us marine corps intelligence officer, says that the sanctions will hardly affect the russian economy, but will most likely backfire on western countries. is victory even possible for ukraine? the answer is no. ukraine simply cannot win this conflict. basic military math. the revolves around the competing notions over a burn rate and replenishment rate. simply dictate the outcome, ukraine is burning through resources faster than they can be replenished, or there's nothing the west can do to. to disrupt the russian economy at this point, these iterations of sanctions are purely political gestures by europe to, to basically have european politicians say, look how strongly are look, how firm we are. but they're back for the bottom line is it's up to russian economy . that's paltry. it's european union economies faltering. and the sole reason for this is because of the boomerang effect of the sanctions that they're trying to impose on russia, but which are ricocheted back and doing extensive damage to europe. ah, paris supreme court has ruled that out that president fe
