- David Petraeus, a retired army general and former director of the CIA, speaks to CNBC's Hadley Gamble about Europe's energy crisis and the Russia-Ukraine war.
She tried to trigger the General into domestic politics he maneuvered well.
Yup
She ruined an otherwise solid interview by lending her legitimacy to absurd partisan attacks. It’s extremely unprofessional journalism to adopt as serious insinuations for which no evidence exists other than being strategically deployed by rivals to exploit crude stereotypes and prejudices. Old people are not senile. Gay people are not pedophiles. Women are not sexual harlots. Liberals are not snowflake socialists. It’s incredible that anyone takes as serious what Republicans say.
Zelensky went online and asked nato to launch preemptive strike on russia. Who is desperate?
He should of been charged with espionage but instead that was only afforded to a real Journalists whose not even an American citizen
Classic journalist, slimy little thing
Love the way he incorporates his hands
So did his mistress

Not a bad interview except for where the interviewer slipped into a political hack and started attacking Biden's mental acuity. Kudos to the general for not playing cheap politics and shame to the reporter.
A very bad interview except for where the interviewer asking about Biden's mental stupor.
I love how he brilliantly steps around that elon musk question. I have no idea why she would even ask that irrelevant question.
Totally Agree. come on Elon stop. the bully never stops they want more & more if you let them
I disagree with Elon getting involved, but to clear, Elon never endorsed the sham referendum as the interviewer said. He suggested having a new vote under UN or other trusted source. I don't think that is a workable solution, but she misrepresented (deliberately?) Elons suggestion.
Useless woke general wants third war world where russia will destroy the us.
Elon wants peace between the nazis of ukraine and the russians.
You called who intelligent ? LOL
SHE didn't seem that bright to me and was just name dropping and mention several times that she had interviewed Putin.
@@jeffgriffith7087 Thanks for the information
The political parties never put this man in charge. He is too smart, too intelligent, and has character. He can't never be control by both parties.
People with good lives and real accomplishments don't want to be President. The media have made that job a living hell.
@OJDUDE It's a weakness that has brought low many a man. 😔
CERTAINLY a QUALIFIED
Candidate for President
Just not sure ,he would play well in the deep mud
Known as "THE SWAMP" !
except when he gave classified documents to his sugar baby so she could write a biography about him.
@@mah38900 Yeah, there was THAT little teeny weeny hardly worth mentioning small slip….or, as we former prosecutors used to call it, felony
such an EXTRAORDINARY expose of the many aspects of the very complicated, but so well "organized" web of synchronization by all "allied" parties involved , on all fronts, resulting in Ukraine being able to push back one of the "so called" best military might on our planet ! BRAVO "ladies & gentlemen" ! et MERCI !
You couldn't secure a private room for the Generals interview?
This guy is BRILLIANT
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gen Petraeus is always excellent in analysis giving impressive insight from a General's perspective great interview
Are you gay for petrunios? Because he is willing.
Sharp as a tack. I went to St. Michael's College with Joe Dunford, the former Chair of the joint chiefs of staff......Let's hear from Joe!
He is just spewing out whatever he has been told but unlike Biden he doesn’t need a teleprompter
I am truly impressed with the intelligence and insights of U.S. generals. As a Canadian I feel lucky to have you as a neighbour. I may not always agree with their foreign policy, but I recognise the restraint shown by this superpower.
American here, we feel lucky to have you guys as neighbors too. North American sister nations, united together, are unstoppable. 🇨🇦🇺🇸
drone struck afghan children would love to have been shown some restraint
V I
Lucky??? We Europeans want them far away...
🇺🇸🇨🇦❤️you are the best hat
Does anyone find it odd to hear a journalist say she doesn't vote - (because) she's a journalist ?
I can respect this if she believes it enables her to remain objective and unbiased.
@@MichaelBrown-kk6ckThanks for the feedback. If that's what works for her - so be it. I'd like to think that journalistic efforts can be conducted as an unbiased representation of reality, without giving up one's right to express one's principles via the vote, thus helping influence our country's direction. I haven't noticed other journalists saying they give up their right to vote, just to function in their careers.
@@williamrapp9823 in the UK (where I am) it’s definitely a thing some journalists, army officers, civil servants and judges choose to do. It’s not required here, obviously, but certain types of public servant here are required to remain entirely neutral in public. My Dad is a retired judge, and chose to keep voting once he became one, but he was obligated to not disclose his political leanings to anyone outside family, and to stop giving any monetary support to any political party or organisation. I get why. It definitely helps maintain the separation of powers when you know that certain key powerful groups are a-political.
@@celticcheetah6371 That's quite interesting. My youngest brother is a "semi-retired" juvenile court judge, and he's far from apolitical, although I would prefer that he were. We avoid talking politics/religion when possible, since our family has a mix across the preference spectrum. We all have our practiced customs - so be it. Family ties are important to us, so discretion is the order of the day.
100% honorable and smart.
"Nothing succeeds like success".
General Petraeus' closing comment - "We have to get through this winter". 'Western-ingenuity' must formulate and deliver a 'Berlin Airlift' style response.
Seen from France, i think that the world will keep a chance to overcome challenges as far as men like this will advise politicians.
Merci mon général
This is fairly the main stream position relative to the event in the US. In my assignments, I always served as an apolitical servant. Key point: The president is the administration. I think that despite all the criticism, the administration has handled the situation well. Particularly, it has shown a lot of restrain. Let's hope this is wrapped up ASAP.
Guy has a hard on for the proxy war he's fighting. He doesn't care about Ukrainians. Musk called for another referendum with full US oversight. Putin is just going to get more desperate, ×5 the destruction.
He's mad crazy, Ukraine is being decimated...
👏👏👏👏
Always appreciating gen. Petraeus opinion.
Not me. General... how did Iraq and Afghanistan work out? Not well.
@Robert Now he's nothing but a corporate shill.
Listening to Gen Petraeus is intellectually delightful.
What is there not to admire from an American who is fully aware of what is going on in the world. You are the man Patreus - total respect from an Irish European.
It seems like European leaders had no clue what is happening in the World.
He is just supporting propagandas from his gov't nothing more. It doesn't make sense thinking Ukraine might defeat Russia whatsoever. When it goes to fully war we will understand Russia's capabilities. Insinuating over the health of Putin has been Western media propagandas since before the operation so nothing new to admire.
I fully agree! Watching such a quality senior officer as him Mr. George Friedman’s words are making more a more sense. He said, China might have the same number of ships in its navy, but it will never have the same quality admirals as we do!
Listen carefully, discrepancies abound. Of course, it's a bias view that he is paid for. Lol
Some odd questions here, especially the mention of Elon Musk and Biden's fitness.
Is she a real reporter? She said some odd things. Maybe she is a Putin spy. Who is she?
In a nutshell, as impressive as it may sound, Ukraine is the most combat-capable force on European continent at the moment.
try messing with Portuguese
@@antoniolima1068
Does Portugal have an army? How many are in it?
@@antoniolima1068 With all due respect, which nuclear power has Portugal fought?
@@antoniolima1068 you sound like the iraqis before desert storm the first time. sadam had the biggest army in the middle east . "battle hardened" . see how that worked out,.
But only because they have the support of Europe/NATO. Without those vast supplies, their many dedicated fighters could only amount to cannon fodder.
Without a doubt the most brilliant general superb intellect and a genius he definitely should be a president or a defense secretary in an administration.
W H Y do we get the C R A P we get to vote for? This guy would win by a landslide. And the journalist name-dropping was in excellent form.
Dude was on track to run for President with Rupert Murdoch paving the way for him.
But he got busted shagging his biographer. That’s life in America.
Seems laughable now after Trump.
as viewers from the sidelines in other parts of the world - it amazes us that a country such as the USA comes up with such twits as presidents that people even vote for ...when there are surely intelligent and successful people that could stand and win..
What's so brilliant about leaking classified documents and military secrets to your journalist mistress??!?
General Petraeus his analysis of the war are really valuable. Love to hear his views regarding the Russian invasion.
Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
Petraeus is full of BS, he is part of the globalist BBB team after huge N exchange, they have built cities under the US for this moment he has his exit plan when the shtf what have you got! Do your due diligence and connect the dots or not! I know what I know what do you really know.
lol you actually believe this guy our country is doomed
Slava Raytheon
One Russian tactical nuke on Ukraine and it's all finished. Just like Hiroshima in ww2. All these battle tactics of Ukraine will be smoked by even a low yield nuke on them. 🤣
US produces among the finest generals in the world.
Thanks for the update CNBC
Veey intelligent man..really enjoyed his opinion...👍
looks like, by the comments, a Petraeus image building exercise is underway
As a pro-EU german having been critical about US imperialism and selfishness in the past and especially under Trump, this is the kind of leadership displayed here I can accept and endorse and feeling happy to be a part of this alliance, therefore expecting my german gov't to contribute its share properly.
Are you mad. This guy is a joke. He utterly failed in his missions in Irag and in Afghanistan. He represents everything that is wrong with the US military. I'm delighted, as a european, that the US has generals as incompetent and corrupt as this guy. It could lead hopefully to a weakening of the US globally which is a very positive outcome for the rest of the world.
Thanks Sebastian for your comment, i see too little reflection in German politics,
@@wbafc1231 Petraeus is saying correct things. This situation is different, probably the aforementioned wars should have not even been started by the US.
The woman askes really weird questions and announces she will go to Russia, she is probably the mad one here. Well...Canada, what to say, perhaps the enforced gender politics and islam welcoming immigration policy has driven her mad.
Germany is 2 - 0 - no thanks buddy
@@wojteks4712 thank you and this is true, german politics is too inwards focussed. Germany certainly didn't always play a glorious role and german collective decision making can be quite erratic. However, fundamentally, I believe the majority understands this conflict is about core fundamental values we commonly agree upon in the west, and we do not question the strategic and military leadership of the US given that it remains nuanced and cautious when it comes to defending those values, as both our lifestyles in america and europe are quite similar and interlinked and so we need to stick together in real crisis.
Bullies should not be cuddle.
Petraeus would make an outstanding President. Really smart!
Good interview and great journalist have all the answers here !
This government today is going to lead us into a nuclear war Ukraine and Russia are already tried to negotiate once and this evil government that's in charge today would not let them if we do not vote this evil government out of office we will have a nuclear war and no one will survive think about it
Very , very smart former CIA Director!!! Interesting to listen !!!
I love that he doesn't even mention Musk, he simply states the facts.
Right, it's not his first rodeo. Musk? Are you kidding me? Tabloid junk Musk is.
Zelensky went online and asked nato to launch preemptive strike on russia. Who is desperate?
Buhahaha 😂 keep the jokes coming lol
Although the silly shit he sometimes gets in. That man is incredible and everyones got an opinion of him. Without knowing any of his never ending accomplishments. And maybe if you had something to actually say. Other than some tabloids that you must be reading. You might actually have a opinion.
@@drewphillips7021 You are right. I don't follow media personalities and I know little about Musk...I'm going to keep it that way. I will never mock any public figure again. Media is the truth. Just kidding of course.
I would thing all these years he , David, been with us in this crazy world, he ll be more of a wise and good man for the world.
We need more people like this Gentleman.
He actually "mishandled" highly classified material! And was involved in an extramarital affair, such a gentleman! STFU!
The disgraced general, David Petraeus, betrayed his country when he lied to Congress. His later negligent dalliances, during which he leaked some intimate details concerning our national security, pale in comparison. He violated his sworn duty to obey civilian authority. He is untrustworthy, yet for-profit media finds that those tarnished baubles on his uniform can sell ads, so here we are. He will continue to be shoved in our faces, reminding us that those medals could carry his country's honor and respect only if they were worn by someone else.
another Old White guy who removed Classified documents for his Girl friend.
Poor Judgement by this "Gentleman", acted as a traitor to the USA.
Wrong! We need less trouble making people like this. You don’t go sticking your finger in a nuclear powers eye.
The USA has plenty of smart dedicated men like him why is it we wind up with buffoons like Biden as president?
I can listen to a wartime Gen like him even hours. Not like all keyboard warriors who thinks they knew something about wars
How'd he do commanding troops in the middle east? JW
US escalated this war and now we are on the brink of total nuclear war on a global scale. US media is acting as if US had no part in this. Both US and Russia needs to settle down and talk. They need to pressure Ukraine to accept peace deal.
@@moneymoe6
The US lost about zero battles in the middle east, so pretty well.
@@jshepard152 haahhahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha ask the Taliban how that worked out
@@moneymoe6
You're conflating political will to fight a war for over 20 years with military defeat. They have nothing in common.
I could listen to General David Petraeus all day. Makes all his points very clearly. 💙💛☮
I could listen all day , to the inviolate remonstration of an imperialists prey, where are the peace talks ?
Just like the retired Lt general and former commander of US who were also used to support their country's propagandas who all have been interviewed within past 24hrs!! Isn't that strange!?
@@Berry-fr5wj Peace talks? It has been said from the beginning that Russia leaves this conflict will be over. Stop sucking on Russian boots.
Found pressing General Patreus to comment on Biden's mental acuity is something an election denier would ask, question.
Agreed, I wasn't sure of the motivation for this.
l have great appreciation for General Petraeus. Not only was he a General, and CIA Director, he was also NATO COMMANDER . So this man KNOWS what he is talking about. I saw an interview with him about 4 months ago and he said the entire Russian military could be inside the Ukraine and he did not think they could win. Great respect for his opinion,
He's a traitor
Therefore one of the most corrupt individuals on the planet. You go ahead keep being the sheep that you are.
@@dalemallette8111 Oh you are a democrats. it was the democrats that were trying to make him look bad over total nonsense. you believer all the democrats do? how about biden and harris? damn
@@dalemallette8111 your wierd
He is agent of a secret society, War criminal...
Why he would talk to these news media channels after what they have put him through.
General David Petraeus, one of the finest generals the US has ever seen.
I always enjoy an interview with any general concerning Ukraine and I hope the war will be over soon.
It will end only when Washington says so, this is a proxy war between the US and Russia. The Ukraine is merely a geopolitical pawn. This has already being stated by the white house
Hes the former director of the CIA. According to Pompeo their motto is "We lie, We cheat, We steal." how can you trust anything coming out of the mouth of this man...
To do the job he did, you have to not care about morality, how otherwise could you possible be a good leader of such an organization...
In my opinion, these are the people with no moral values at all, or at the minimum he can easily put principles and moral values aside so he can do his job which is to lie cheat, steal and kill... That's all the CIA does....
If you would care to listen to both sides you would easily see he's lying right now... But people don't do this, they will only listen to one side and then believe the understand what's going on..
That's not how the world works, if you want to understand anything, you always listen to both sides, Westerners don't seem to get this logic...
I can't really blame you, they banned the other side, to prefend people from listening to Russia.. It's much easier to indoctrinate people, when you don't give them the chance to listen to other point of views...
You see how brainwashing and manipulating works, it's very easy... If you truly had freedom of press, you would be able to listen to Russian media, but you don't have that freedom...
3:12 That statement makes the biggest advantage Ukraine has against Putin..
I totally enjoy listening to this man
He is intelligent and very good at analytical evaluation of the geopolitical events currently occurring in the world
No. He's an American traitor and belongs behind bars. If he was so smart he wouldn't have leaked classified documents to his mistress while serving in a top military (ie unelected) position. Gross. 🤢
A man respected by everyone I know who've met him. Alexander the Great said "It is not titles who honour men, but men who honour titles.", Petraeus is the reason we respect the title of General and commander. Even as a European who usually disdain all of the US's military-industrious complex and culture, I highly respect men such as he.
Ha..ha...the General who ran away from Afg...making himself rich...
*Correction: That was Machiavelli, NOT Alexander 😉
Without the US military industrial complex - Putin would be in your country.
How many wars did Petraeus win again?
What a joke.
@@JGalt-em4xu How many wars have you won? Thus, by your own (hateful) logic, you're even a bigger Joke than Patraeus 😉
The Host is clearly an able person. However, I don’t feel she is knowledgeable enough to discuss about war, and politics.
She acted oddly. Is she a Russian spy?
"neither do I, I don't vote, Im a journalist" huh? why would being a journalist preclude you from voting? I can understand not publicly announcing your political affiliation as a journalist, but surely you SHOULD vote since your job is to know whats going on? Who would be a more informed voter than a non-partisan journalist?
Unfortunately the American two party system, with its current tribalism, basically means that voting means picking a ‘side,’ which is very unhealthy for democracy
Let's all pray for a mild winter.
if your a president he is one of people you'd want at your side in a crisis.
Is that why Obama pulled him out of his job in Irak just when things got better there? After him being out of control things got worse and ISIS grew substantially.
Because things went so well in Iraq and Afghanistan??
I like how he dismissed the stupid question about "hyper-sonic" weapons.....
Hypersonic weapons probably made carrier battle groups obsolete. They are a very big deal.
Hyper sonic is the idea that the missile is faster than the radar is equal for both sides since yourself is blind to find the target. You need to verify the target.
Great to see him wearing his UK Parachute Regiment tie !
Utrinque Paratus!
General Petraeus represents the best of our military and country. Proud to say that.
Just another war criminal, nothing more nothing less
Nothing we have done overseas, in Iraq or Afghanistan, was successful. One might say that our soldiers won the battles, and the generals lost the wars.
Great interview until the bizarre "I dont vote, I'm a journalist" lol.
4:43 Elon did not even say that. He said the referendum should be conducted by a 3rd party such as the UN
The interviewer behaved oddly. She said really peculiar things. Who is she?
Military Genius
She did a great interview
Great interview
We continue to Pray for Peace🙏🏽
since when has praying ever worked?
In my opinion, Petraeus described the battlefield precisely as it is.
There Is a Lot behind the scenes we don't know..!!😎😎👽👽
He didn’t describe how US navy blew up the Nordstream gas pipeline and how Europe will pay the price for US adventures.
US escalated this war and now we are on the brink of total nuclear war on a global scale. US media is acting as if US had no part in this. Both US and Russia needs to settle down and talk. They need to pressure Ukraine to accept peace deal.
Well real napster, I see you are well down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Do you also get your right wing propaganda from Tuckums? You know the guy who traveled to Hungary to do commercials praising the far right/ fascist leaning dictator?
@@realnapster1522 Wild. Any data or source? Love to read it / hear it
Nice analysis...
David Petraeus has such wonderful integrity and does so well in fighting off the media's bias with class.
Ha. Ha. Ha. Unless by "integrity" you mean *leaking highly classified docs* and by "fighting off media bias" you mean *to his journalist mistress that ended his military career*
In which country this interview was done?
well said sir!
Would love to see him as the first independent president. Then can all these party clowns in congress
This guy is talking about having a nuclear war and you think he's smart no one can survive a nuclear war think about it
If he was telling you the truth he would tell you that Ukraine and Russia needs to negotiate to end this war so we do not even come close to a nuclear war that no one will survive including our planet
I really respect his commitment to not comment on domestic politics especially with him being someone who has occupied position of necessary apoliticalism.
David Patraeus is such a well spoken man. Everything he says makes sense. Great interview!
Agree 100%. Mr. Petraeus is one of the experts I always look forward to hearing from.
This guy makes sense he lied more times than Joe Biden there was more red flags in his speech any blind person could see if they were listening and they cared do not let these people lie to you it is never a good idea for a nuclear war it Putin uses nuclear war this guy said if he uses nuclear weapons on the battlefield it won't make a difference b***s**** then NATO uses nuclear weapons and the United States uses nuclear weapons Russia's got 6,000 nuclear weapons each one of them capable of blowing up Chicago Los Angeles Washington DC and we cannot stop them once a nuclear war starts we cannot stop it the only way we can stop this war is by letting Ukraine and Rush negotiate and stop the war now we need to vote these corrupt officials that are in office today out they are dangerous it is not about Democrats or Republicans anymore I am not a republican I am not a Democrat I'm an American with common sense and you should be too use your common sense man no nuclear war is winnable
What is it that he said and it makes sense apart from supporting his country's propandas!?
@@heimkon7236 yes you are so right this guy is a talking head for the government that is in charge right now that wants to try to dethrone Putin all they're going to do is start a nuclear war and no one can survive that
He's just another 'yes' man with some dubious life choices.
Great interview, such an impressive man General Petraeus when he talks you listen!
Great interview. Very insightful to be able to pick the brain of a man such as General Petraeus. Glory to America! 🇺🇸
What's so insightful over this interview!? He is just supporting the media propandas invented by his country.
"Glory to America"? If only you know the sick history of your corrupt country! You have no idea what is about to happen in this world, and specific to your "glorious America".
He also failed his country (leaking classified docs to his journalist mistress) and his family (mistress). Peter principle at work, I guess.
Kudos to The General for putting up with this unprofessional interviewer. She seemed more interested in her own accomplishments and fox like questions than the subject at hand.
She is odd. Is she a real reporter? Who is she?
U.S understands war that’s why they have the best military in the world.
Their officers are highly knowledgeable about war !!
It is very re-assuring that I could listen to this guy for 5 minutes and understand that he is a masterfully trained. He has a way of calmly speaking and explaining simply, that only some one with a ironclad understanding could speak
Petreaus is a National Treasure.
Brilliant interview and everything is on point and clear.
You are as ignorant as they come. Ukraine is getting annihilated. Not because I favor that outcome, but simply because if you did any digging away from brain washing media, you'd see those facts for yourself.
Everyone is on point for a nuclear war no nuclear war is survivable think about it
Petraeus is so believable and so reassuring ... at least for me. Elon Musk needs to stick to what he knows, technology, and stop meddling in Ukrainian military strategies. Elon is so full of himself, frankly I'm beginning to question his motives and his psyche. Really, who does he think he is and what is his purpose? He has no business mucking around in this situation! Is he aware that Russia attacked the peaceful, sovereign country of Ukraine? Why are all his propositions favorable to Russia? Why didn't he recommend to Putin to get the h'll out of Ukraine and give back all Ukrainian territory including Crimea? 🤔
As an after thought, I hope Biden is talking to Petraeus!
Elon is real we need talks not war,those polls spoke volumes,we are tired of western hypocrisy,Ukrainian gov harassing&killing its Russia speaking people in the eastern parts threatening Russia with NATO ambitions that could destroy Russia, this is Biden's work to weaken Russia,feed American war machine Lockheed's &cover up all his corruption at the expense of the ukranian lives! its absurd
Wow what a game of softball. Sending love. Go truckers and railway workers. Cleveland
A fine person and even finer general. There's a great American. Thanks for this interview. A salute to General Petraeus from a retired U.S. Navy chief petty officer.
This guy is just a puppet of the same people that are controlling the Biden administration he is a warminger take your time and listen and you will hear the lies the red flags or do you want the planet to be in a nuclear war that no one can win
A bad person and an even worse General. He's just making up propaganda right now.
General , long time ago your wonderful mother told you : No self respecting chicken would wanna be like you “.
Today, every self respecting chicken wishes it was you.
You are a living legend, General !!!!!
The dude failed in Afghanistan and at the CIA. The most succesfull thing he ever done was screwing another man’s wife. I know a carpenter that accomplished more than this clown.
Petraeus is one of, if not the, brightest military minds of his generation. He spoke expertly and didn’t take the bait.
And what is up with this reporter? She wouldn’t stop name dropping the people she and questioning Biden‘s mental acuity? Sure, he’s getting old and his prone to gaffes, he has ALWAYS been! But what has he done exactly that’s interfered with the running of the country? Not remembering that a member of Congress died months ago? There’s 535 of them! Did she say the same thing when Trump was talking about the Civil War and how the union was taking their “airports” ? (airports in 1865!)
words of an intelligent man. Great answers.
The interview was great, however the location was not very good. Sounds like they're at an IHOP waiting for a table.
[ 8:02 ] - Unrelated to the interview. Love the guy with the phone in the background here 😁😁😎😎
German here, without the US Europe would be lost, thank you
Are you crazy? US blew up the pipeline which was supplying gas to Germany and Europe. How is this helping Europe? Have Germans lost their balls?
Gen Petraeus is the man. Very well spoken, you can tell how intelligent he is.
A good question to ask him would've been how much investment do you have in the great Military Industrial Complex!!!! Would've def been an interesting and eye opening question to ask!
💯
"The administration is the President." 👐🎤
Always saw it that way, otherwise we would be in trouble without Mr. Biden.
It's too bad he is a 'former' and not a current. We need more people like him as leaders.
God bless Ukraine with boundless strength, may they soon take back every piece of their land back.
Isn't Ukraine part of USA?
@@peterjenner5431 No it isn't. Ukraine is a country under its own leadership, government systems, economies, and people.
Always great to hear from Gen Petraeus - however the interviewer pushing him for a soundbite on Biden's mental state was pathetic to watch. Even after he repeated twice that he is not interested in commenting on it, she just kept going..
First rate interview!
A very thoughtful interview by an intelligent non sensationalist journalist, in the old sense of the word. more like this, and I might even start watching cable again. But this is a rarity. Since it is so rare, it should be watched and celebrated, IMHO.
Enlist your children and grandchildren.
Wake the walk!!!
So you aren’t impressed by a four star general. You’re amazed at interviewing??? Your liberal and yet you don’t vote?? This is how USA military leadership leads. Intelligent educated leadership. He wouldn’t leave any soldier on battlefield unlike his Russian counterparts. You should be proud of our men and women in the services. That’s why they call it the service or they served. It’s more than just voting which you don’t. Respect the flag and those who protect it and you. Wow great interviewer.
Zelensky went online and asked nato to launch preemptive strike on russia. Who is desperate?
One of the few, next to Hodges, who believed in Ukraine’s changes from the beginning. Based on clear analytical and critical thinking. I believe both have a deep sense of what an army and its nation needs in order to be successful on the battlefield.
Strategic war action with rapid changes of strategy dependent on in the field movements. Coordination chaos is happening in Ukraine and it works for Ukranian arrmy.
Completely agree !
I never appreciated how valuable patriotism is when defending one's country. Ukrainians have a clear moral purpose. If Europe can get through the winter Russia is lost. We need to get fuel to Europe.
This guy is telling you that we need to have a nuclear war that no one could survive what the hell
@alex And as usual, US did NOT invaded Ukraine but russia did. His words about putin is straight to the point: The guy is destroying what he pretend to defend: federation of russia. Russia is the last "empire" of past centuries with most of the 140 millions citizens being NOT russian people but individual countries with undisputed borders.
David Petraeus wears the tie of a true warrior
👏👏👏👏
Hard to keep Hadley on topic...Lots of name dropping and gas lighting. Petraeus gave a very solid interview.
Elon is a businessman...not an expert on war.
Exactly the days of business men determining economy is over. The military will just like it has for the majority of history
Is this Elon trying to curry favor with the Russians perhaps or to build his non-partisan brand bc he needs to do business with bad state actors?
General Petraeus' views and analysis are invaluable, but does he have to be repeatedly interrupted?
Refreshing Interview from Petreaus,
EXCELENTE VIDEO PERFECTO BENDICIONES GRACIAS PEDRO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX DESDE MIAMI
In Korea, Vietnam and Afghanistan the Russians were supplying our opponents with huge quantities of arms and information. It is in no position to complain about Western assistance to Ukraine.
There were more, Grenada and Somalia are but two.
what an intelligent interview
the interviewer focused and on point
asking relevant and salient questions
that showed her understanding of true events. 👏👏 General Patreus's ability and understanding is without question.
Fabulous interview 😎
She asked some very stupid questions, also she will be in Russia next week? Does she want to be their hostage? Or is Canada neutral?
I guess I could see her schtick coming across as professional to the casual consumer. It's really quite trite.
@@DutchmanAmsterdam I’m sure that if you demonstrate your own journalistic skills to us all we’ll completely agree how much of a better job you would have done. Let me know when your own interview goes on-line.
@@DutchmanAmsterdam Canada is a member of NATO, bruh.
@@srp01983 No, he's right. A couple tagents she goes on about the president and Elon Musk are the kind of garbage one might need in a clips reel when trying to get a job at Fox. Silly.
You are such paradigm as a General. You know your craft so well. Is always a joy to watch your mind unfolds. Treasure!
This guy is going to lead us into a nuclear war that is not winnable for anyone think about it
This general should be President. He is the most sensible public voice in the USA.
So because one is in the military or a journalist, they should not vote?? What in the world are they talking about? Voting is a duty and a privilege of citizenship.
She’s a journalist so she’s “non-political” HAHAHAHHAHAH.
The real question is ! ... why do they not vote ?????????
Supposedly it’s to keep their objectivity.
I can kind of understand the Generals reason ... his job is to protect no matter who's in office .... but the journalist who is not voting is full of shit as to her reason for not voting .... but it is her right to vote or not to vote .... thats what freedom is all about.
I think not voting is odd, though I can appreciate not commenting on domestic politics, very respectable for a general.
I love listening to Gen. Petraeus, but the interviewer ruins it. This man is one of the most brilliant minds of our era, let him spell out his thoughts unimpeded…
"I don't vote, I'm a journalist."
1. Nobody asked.
2. Quite possibly the dumbest thing I've heard.
3. Journalists vote, lady.
Elon Musk is better at being a Technocrat than a Politician. There's a saying that goes." If you're not in the thick it. Don't advise those who are on how to proceed. Just stay in your Lane".
