Unfortunately, hypocrisy is always part of government. Theodore Roosevelt (26th President - 1901-1909): “When they call the roll in the Senate, Senators do not know whether to answer ‘Present’ or ‘Not Guilty’.” "Solve Taiwanese problems economically" : most Taiwanese economic activity is with, and as a part of, China. China will NEVER invade Taiwan. They will envelope them with a warm hug that introduces Taiwan to the rest of the world as a worthy partner. Eventually, it won't matter to anyone. David Graeber: “The ultimate hidden truth of the world is that it is something we make and could just as easily make differently.”
Three hundred million Americans and their voters just voted unanimously to keep going with the genocide and the Ukraine war and to engage China. Sorry you think Americans are capable of something else - it must make your head spin to think so.
Where is home? We can all laugh, but nobody is free to immigrate and NATO threatens us all because Americans voted for that and gave their labor to empower NATO.
Bravo !! The entire ignorant world should listen to what Scott Ritter said about Ukraine . That’s what I have explained to people around me for years but no they rather believe the fake news medias . I love your channel along with the channel of judge Napolitano . That’s true news
I keep telling that to all of my family who believe in mainstream propaganda ...If Russia did in let's say Mexico even a tiny part of what NATO/US is doing in Ukraine, we'd already have been in all out war ...And when I tell them that, they act like "it's different" and "Russia is bad blah blah". No, it's exactly the same and Russia has the right to set their safety policy however they see fit... It's so hard to un-brainwash the sheep..
Half the idiots that support Ukraine do so blindly. They don’t know anything about the coup in 2014 the shelling of Russian speaking Ukrainians….or the previous years leading up to all this, they know zero about Russia, Russian are poor people living g in third world conditions ruled by a dictator, Apparently Russia just wanted to invade Ukraine and Putin is an evil dictator. Until they r educated Russia stands to gain no support. It’s frustrating the level of indoctrination against Russia. I’m Australian I remember growing up it’s always been in the background in our society Russia equals communism, tough and treacherous people used to extreme conditions...to be feared. But they are People I have come to respect and almost envy.
What security concerns? who attacked Russia or was planning to attack them? some NATO country? Ukraine? Who would be that stupid? There was no security risk for Russia there is now and they are to blame themselves for that. The only one that attacks and tries to annexe their neighbours AGAINST THEIR WILL is Russia. The invasion of Ukraine did not help because now there is an increase in NATO members and Ukraine might follow in the future.
The American people have just rejected US support for Ukraine but the neocons of both parties are determined to ignore them. As for the US's friends: Ask the people of Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq how beneficial it is to be America's "friend."
Don't forget Libya. Ghadafi had renounced terrorism and was helping the USA. What did Hilary Clinton gloat about about with regard to Ghadafi? We came, we saw , he died.
Yes, we have overwhelmingly rejected this nonsense, and we know there is no real peace for anyone while others are at war. We just want the same things everyone wants; to be at peace, with happy and healthy families enjoying meaningful opportunities to contribute and to make a living.
There is nothing for Russia to talk about with the US. Nothing. Russia doesn't need to talk to the US. The US merely needs to stop the weapons flow to Ukraine. That is the only thing the US can do
The US Needs Russian Resources, Russia needs nothing from the USA. The concept of Russia being a threat to the US seems to be in need of examination? The USA has been working up to a position where they could threaten Russia for 30 Years. The admit defeat in Ukraine, leaves $35 trillion dollars gambled on overcoming Russia, in trouble. No return on Investment?
Once the US stopped weapons shipments and started influencing NATO to do the same, a dialog might be established on a goodwill basis. I wouldn’t blame Russia if it still didn’t trust them.

Scott, I could not make the situation any clearer. As you explain it is easy to understand what is required to end this conflict and that Russia will determine the final outcome.
Асанж прав на 200%. Все беды от Сионистов. Они захватили власть по всему земному шару и разжигают войны для выполнения повестки дня. Сокращение населения планеты.
The nuclear weapons that the UK have are American And can't be used without America's permission and more concerning for those of us in Scotland is these weapons are housed next to our largest city, Scot's don't want these weapons on our soil but being a colonised nation we have no say.
Scotts answer about Ukraine war is clear , its over for Zelensky , he cant carry on demanding more arms from the US without having any manpower to fight ..... its a clusterfuck.
Thank you Nima for inviting Scott Riiter back as a guest, on your excellent podcast! The ideas and insights he provided for us in this episode, were sensible, plausible, pragmatic and could be readily implemented. Unfortunately, there is no one in the current Administration or the incoming Administration, with the knowledge, experience or vision, for what Scott Ritter proposed here. With the kind of individuals Trump has already suggested as his picks, current failed policies, will likely be continued by the U.S.. sadly , we do not learn from history, or our own mistakes. Doubling down is seemingly all we know how to do, and this approach hasn’t served our country or the world very well at all. Very frustrating to hear Scott elaborate on viable solutions, that the Trump Administration will not be following at all. More of the same, and likely with dire consequences for the West and especially the U.S..! Thank you Nima for inviting Scott Ritter back as a guest. His responses are always informative and highly enlightening. Tragic that Trump’s picks so far, are people not with the necessary skill set to do the jobs they are tasked with, properly. Thanks to you and your knowledgeable guests, for keeping us all well informed about current events. Keep up the good work!
33 months of war gone USA and UK and NATO nations and EU nations togather with Ukraine super strong military could not defeat Russia. Two months still remain make as much noise as they can Russia is unstoppable
NATO is not a defensive alliance. They illegally bombed Yugoslavia (direct violation of the UN Charter). We must never forget what they did to Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Syria etc. NATO needs to understand that playing Russian roulette with a nuclear superpower is never a good idea.
Europe followed the US into this crazy game and continues to follow despite the defeat that awaits us. And now that it is clear we are losing Europe wants to avoid anyone actually stating the fact.
@@jefleysen6372 2 minutes ago Maybe they send the little white rabbit… That's Elensky, right? Hard to say it worked.....I may be wrong of course.......
UK minister of defense have to back up his remarks about Russia being weakened. 🤡😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I am sure that he is talking about nato being weakened. that´s more likely.
I've always respected Scott but don't always agree with him except on Ukraine. He hit a home run this time starting on the deweaponization of the dollar. I am an ignorant old man and I know it is stupid to have the reserve currency and weaponize it. Hopefully his mentality will get to Trump but I agree it is not looking real good with his picks so far. Better than last time though.
Russians do not depend on the EU. On the contrary, the EU was and still is dependent on Russian commodities, energy, and rare materials. Russia has good relationships with most of the non-NATO countries in the world and can trade anything, including satellites, nuclear power plants, military equipment, planes, mobile phones, computers, and consumer goods. Even US client countries like Turkey and Saudi Arabia want to trade with Russians.
Also, Russia was a substantial market for EU products. As well as Russian tourism. All gone. European airlines are desperate since their flying time to Asia has gone up by 4 to 6 hours. Loosing market to Asian airlines.
They were so proud of their past achievements that they made a fatal mistake of taking on mighty Russia. Their war think tank's brains were blank at that moment.
This is the first time I saw Scott being upset about some personal issue but managed to cover it up that I couldn't tell until I watched this video again. Either that or I was wrong and he was upset at NATO.
I always love Scott’s analysis and insight. Sadly, the American political establishment still believes that might makes right without understanding that Russia and China have already caught up with their might and are now surpassing.
Just like when Trump talks about his jobs record, European contributions to NATO increased, however gradually, before his 1st term in office. The increase in the number of jobs in the US began increasing after the crash in 2008 through the Obama admin. Trump never said, he'd dissolve NATO. And, NATO expansion, the enlargement of NATO has been the number the no. 1 complaint from Russia. Putin told us about that in his speech in Munich in 2007, when he asked, "against whom is this expansion intended?" Let's not forget Trump bragged, he sent Ukraine tank busting munitions, while Obama sent them only "pillows and sheets". Trump sanctioned individuals and entities within Russia and he canceled the INF and Open Skies Treaties with Russia. Former Sec of Defense Bob Gates said, Trump has been tougher on Russia than previous administrations. .. We assume the two political parties in the US differ. They're more similar than we care to acknowledge
Tell them history, like the third partition and how communism was installed in Russia and by whom... Read the book behind communism. You'll understand it all.
I fully agree with Scott's point of view when it comes to US role in the world. Once upon a time, the whole world looked up to US as a front runner in almost everthing and America was considered a leader in world afairs and had respect of the world(as Scott brought an example of a respected leader walking into a room and everyone wantes to listen to what he has to say), but unfortunately because of inept learship of American government, America has lost the world respect and continue to do so and still not realizing what is happening around the world.
Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity. In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas. If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy. Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements. Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time Russia's national security was compromised once NATO began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining NATO was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns. 20th September, 2021: Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO. NATO is not a defensive alliance. NATO illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter). We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc. Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster? Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest. Zelensky tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland. Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens-theirs will hide in the basements”. Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it. Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country. Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. 13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list. Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list. There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence). The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present. Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave. Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) R.I.P. The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims). The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter. I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion. I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written. Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.

I read the Washington Post today, and biden just let ukraine do limited strikes with LONG RANGE MISSLES. Mr Nima. Please do a report on this.
I just confirmed. 30 minutes ago. trump needs to make it known what is going on and reject this lunacy.
Russia doesn’t care.
It doesn't matter to us. Я русский.
Also mentioned on ITV News in Britain this evening. Senday 17th
Doesnt change a thing . Russia is used to all sorts
Of gangsterisams from the West .
Well spoken today Scott. Telling it the way it is. Great Scott.
Scott,
I could not make the situation any clearer. As you explain it is easy to understand what is required to end this conflict and that Russia will determine the final outcome.
"In times of Deceit telling the Truth is a Revolutionary act" George Orwell (1984).
Russia should also demand that the US pay and fix the Nordstream pipeline. And publicize exactly what was done.
Great show
Mr Ritter thanx for consequential truth and a vision of a better way
"Forget about Russia, the real threat to America is Israel and the Israel Lobby " - Julian Assange
They control the States and its foreign perpetual war policy.

Ally? I am not aware of any treaty obligations to Ukraine from America.
Thank You Scott
The nuclear weapons that the UK have are American And can't be used without America's permission and more concerning for those of us in Scotland is these weapons are housed next to our largest city, Scot's don't want these weapons on our soil but being a colonised nation we have no say.
Thank you Scott very much! There can be no negotiation. Get that Nima??!
Nima has to ask questions.
That UK guy forgot all about NATO and Kosovo !!!!
don't listen to these UK idiots... as Putin says, those people over there from that little island that no one pays any mind to anymore..... 🤣🤣🤣
Scotts answer about Ukraine war is clear , its over for Zelensky , he cant carry on demanding more arms from the US without having any manpower to fight ..... its a clusterfuck.
Excellent insight! Thank you, Scott!
Thank you Nima for inviting Scott Riiter
back as a guest, on your excellent
podcast! The ideas and insights he
provided for us in this episode, were
sensible, plausible, pragmatic and could
be readily implemented. Unfortunately,
there is no one in the current
Administration or the incoming
Administration, with the knowledge,
experience or vision, for what Scott
Ritter proposed here. With the kind
of individuals Trump has already
suggested as his picks, current
failed policies, will likely be continued
by the U.S.. sadly , we do not learn from
history, or our own mistakes. Doubling
down is seemingly all we know how to
do, and this approach hasn’t served our
country or the world very well at all.
Very frustrating to hear Scott elaborate
on viable solutions, that the Trump
Administration will not be following
at all. More of the same, and likely with
dire consequences for the West and
especially the U.S..!
Thank you Nima for inviting Scott Ritter
back as a guest. His responses are always
informative and highly enlightening.
Tragic that Trump’s picks so far, are
people not with the necessary skill set
to do the jobs they are tasked with,
properly.
Thanks to you and your knowledgeable
guests, for keeping us all well informed
about current events. Keep up the good
work!
Love listening to Scott, always an interesting analysis of the realities of these conflicts.
Great speech Scott, but do you think Trump will listen or anyone in the Republican Party...
33 months of war gone USA and UK and NATO nations and EU nations togather with Ukraine super strong military could not defeat Russia.
Two months still remain make as much noise as they can Russia is unstoppable
NATO is not a defensive alliance. They illegally bombed Yugoslavia (direct violation of the UN Charter). We must never forget what they did to Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Syria etc.
NATO needs to understand that playing Russian roulette with a nuclear superpower is never a good idea.
Europe followed the US into this crazy game and continues to follow despite the defeat that awaits us. And now that it is clear we are losing Europe wants to avoid anyone actually stating the fact.
NATO is like the Black knight: that's a flesh wound!!
Let's call it a draw! 😂😂😂
Maybe they send the little white rabbit…

That's Elensky, right? Hard to say it worked.....I may be wrong of course.......
Awe, good times (70s-80s) : ua-cam.com/video/ZmInkxbvlCs/v-deo.html
I respect Nima R and Scott Ritter because they are very honest.
it's a Crying shame - we don't Live in a World where Scotts plan would actually be a viable reality..
No negotiation... eff Russia
Trump will deserved a Nobel Peace Prize if he truly can dismantle NATO!
Also WHO wanting the world to get a vaccine chart [ Big Pharma got rich enough for 40 yrs]
And the UN.
@@jimbehan478… no… we still need UN
@jk21nola91 like a hole in the head.
@ Who hinders UN? Think…us and is-real…
Hands down best analyst!
Scott you're so right about US dollars
UK minister of defense have to back up his remarks about Russia being weakened. 🤡😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I am sure that he is talking about nato being weakened. that´s more likely.
I've always respected Scott but don't always agree with him except on Ukraine. He hit a home run this time starting on the deweaponization of the dollar. I am an ignorant old man and I know it is stupid to have the reserve currency and weaponize it. Hopefully his mentality will get to Trump but I agree it is not looking real good with his picks so far. Better than last time though.
Russians do not depend on the EU. On the contrary, the EU was and still is dependent on Russian commodities, energy, and rare materials. Russia has good relationships with most of the non-NATO countries in the world and can trade anything, including satellites, nuclear power plants, military equipment, planes, mobile phones, computers, and consumer goods. Even US client countries like Turkey and Saudi Arabia want to trade with Russians.
Also, Russia was a substantial market for EU products. As well as Russian tourism.
All gone. European airlines are desperate since their flying time to Asia has gone up by 4 to 6 hours. Loosing market to Asian airlines.
Win by cooperation, NOT with competition.
They were so proud of their past achievements that they made a fatal mistake of taking on mighty Russia. Their war think tank's brains were blank at that moment.
Sir Scott Ritter The Star og Hearts🌟❤️
Sir Nima R Alkhorshid🌟❤️
Scott is spot on today
@@tombayless9759 Sir Scott Ritter 🌟❤born to be on top💫 And Star of 💕 from the Beginning🙂
DJT has stated, Russia will keep the lands he conquered and Ukraine will not join NATO, THAT could be a plausible win for Russia.
It's not, trump proposal kicking can down the round
@victorallright2331 sit and watch. Then circle back.
This is the first time I saw Scott being upset about some personal issue but managed to cover it up that I couldn't tell until I watched this video again. Either that or I was wrong and he was upset at NATO.
I always love Scott’s analysis and insight. Sadly, the American political establishment still believes that might makes right without understanding that Russia and China have already caught up with their might and are now surpassing.
Why Canada is pressing for Ukraine to win no matter what? just today PM said that...why ? can we afford it ?
NO
If America pulls out of NATO,will it have to also pull its military bases out of Europe?
Just like when Trump talks about his jobs record, European contributions to NATO increased, however gradually, before his 1st term in office. The increase in the number of jobs in the US began increasing after the crash in 2008 through the Obama admin. Trump never said, he'd dissolve NATO. And, NATO expansion, the enlargement of NATO has been the number the no. 1 complaint from Russia. Putin told us about that in his speech in Munich in 2007, when he asked, "against whom is this expansion intended?" Let's not forget Trump bragged, he sent Ukraine tank busting munitions, while Obama sent them only "pillows and sheets". Trump sanctioned individuals and entities within Russia and he canceled the INF and Open Skies Treaties with Russia. Former Sec of Defense Bob Gates said, Trump has been tougher on Russia than previous administrations. ..
We assume the two political parties in the US differ. They're more similar than we care to acknowledge
Unconditional Surrender ... !!!
Thanks nima and Scott for bringing us this great content once again God bless you both stay safe and well have a great week ahead
Scott at his best. France needs another Charles DeGaulle.
Obama said never underestimate joes ability to f something up. Ask Kamala about that.
Clever man.
Tell them history, like the third partition and how communism was installed in Russia and by whom... Read the book behind communism. You'll understand it all.
I fully agree with Scott's point of view when it comes to US role in the world. Once upon a time, the whole world looked up to US as a front runner in almost everthing and America was considered a leader in world afairs and had respect of the world(as Scott brought an example of a respected leader walking into a room and everyone wantes to listen to what he has to say), but unfortunately because of inept learship of American government, America has lost the world respect and continue to do so and still not realizing what is happening around the world.
Spot on
France help? Really? The phrase "Quit while your ahead" came from France. Look where that got them 😂😂😂😂
NATO just might find that discretion is the better part of valor. If you can't win, don't pick a fight.
The MIC would never allow that.
No future for germany
😢
Why on earth has Biden just agreed to allow Zelensky to use long range missiles inside Russia??
What the heck is he playing at.
This is scary now mad bad Joe has green lighted the long ranges 😮😮😮. Need to hear Scott on this one!!!
Wish Scott Ritter was our Sec of State, Sec of Trade, or Sec of Defense. supported by Tulsi Gabbard. He makes so much sense.
Amurican treaties have always been the same "Lies Lies Lies"...We know their song!
There is NO REASON AT ALL for NATOS continued existence.
Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity.
In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas.
If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy.
Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements.
Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time
Russia's national security was compromised once NATO began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining NATO was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns.
20th September, 2021: Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO.
NATO is not a defensive alliance. NATO illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter).
We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc.
Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster?
Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest.
Zelensky tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland.
Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed.
Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens-theirs will hide in the basements”.
Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it.
Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country.
Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. 13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list.
Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list.
There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence).
The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present.
Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave.
Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) R.I.P.
The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims).
The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter.
I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion.
I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written.
Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.
