Dr. Roberts concisely connects the dots between Ukraine, Russia, NATO, Iran, Israel, the US dollar, and the potential for nuclear war. This interview provides the most articulate overview that I have heard to date.

Dr. Roberts said no such thing. I would hope that we could get back on topic now and intelligently discuss the interview with people who actually watched it.

Sounds like a Russian sympathizer. Especially when he goes through the very long list of what Russia has "accepted" from the US and Nato. The real ringer is this comment:

" Putin doesn't want war he doesn't need it, he's not interested in it, he is basically a humanitarian ".

Now that's a sympathizer if I ever heard one. Anyway, he's a bit nuts IMO.

No need for name calling. That is what the Psyops do when they can't make a reasonable argument for their agenda. They smear and demonize those who stand in the way of their agenda.

What if Russia installed a puppet government in Mexico and started moving weapons in? Then what would happen if they started persecuting Americans in Texas? Then what would happen if they stared shooting missiles deep into the US? Then what would happen if they started talking about nuking the US?

I think that Putin has shown amazing patience and restraint.

The US is playing with fire in a war we can't win. Our politicians, and the elite who own the Military Industrial Complex and profit off of this warmongering, have bunkers to hide in. So do the Russian people. Yet the American people are exposed by the reckless ambitions of these profiteers. They continue to tax us, and keep us in endless wars, while leaving us exposed to the fallout of nuclear war.

I'm not willing to die so that the wealthy can profit off of the exploitation of the natural resources of Ukraine, Donbas, and Kursk.

If the USA invaded Mexico with the goal of annexing it to restore some bogus totalitarian empire, I would certainly expect Mexico to get help wherever it could.

That analogy doesn't fit this situation. Russia didn't invade Ukraine. That is NATO propaganda; and Russia has no ambitions of rebuilding the Soviet Union. More propaganda.

What actually disturbs me is how various actors are leverage US political divides to insert the promotion of Vlad Putin interests into the popular mindset.
Forgive me if reason and my instincts for self preservation come off as divisive against those who would profit off of my death at my expense.

Its hard to talk to someone in an alternate universe.
It is. The corporate media has a strong grip on those who buy into their lies. Obviously you didn't watch the video. Donbas is not Ukraine.

Arguments from ignorance is not a good look.

Kiev was the goal in Feb 2022.

Argument from authoritarian influence is not a good look

Nonsense. If Russia wanted to take Kiev; it would have been leveled within an hour.
So how much of it is fake? Right now it appears that the fighting has always been between Ukrainian troops and Russian troops who began it by moving into Ukraine. Is the battlefield footage not being shot in Ukraine?

Good grief why would Putin want a leveled Kiev? In his mind Kiev is the jewel in the orthodox heritage crown and crucial to the restoration of greater Rus.

As for the invasion attempt, we all saw that fiasco.

The US is firing missiles into Russia. Russia made it clear that this is an act of war.

Tell me which Ukrainian towns have Russian boots on the ground?

Can you quote him on that? I don't believe that you can read his mind; and I suspect that this is a fabrication of your imagination.
