      35:20 conveniently omits Russia's breaking of it's 2003 territorial treaty with Ukraine(Treaty on the Russian-Ukrainian border
      ), (also see "Treaty Between the Russian Federation and Ukraine on Cooperation in the Use of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait
      "), as well as encroachment on Tuzla island that same year. Russia was aggressively connecting Russian mainland to Ukrainian strategic Crimean territory. Meanwhile when Yanukovich was in power, he simply extended Russia's right to host their military in Crimea from 2017(when the original lease on Sevastopol base ends) to 2042 despite all that (of course). Then, when ultimately people are furious at him due to his blocking of possibilities of trade with EU and of course, he flees immediately and where to but Russia.

      Isolationist Libertarianism takes for granted that things like states, sovereignty and human dignity just exists as axiomatic in subconsciously and that people will just allow others to act however they want as long as they step on others people foots. They tend to forget that US Liberalism only exist because 1: They got aided from several foreign powers to actually gain liberty and 2: they actually had to step on the foots of both native Americans, Spain and the UK in order to "gain it", proving that neither sovereignty or the concept that friendly isolationism don't step on people's feet is a axiomatic state. These ideas comes from a time before nuclear submarines carrying nuclear weapons, satellites, jet engines etc and aren't applicable to modern times. It's a dead idealistic political philosophy thinking you're able to sit safe on a island and do your own thing because there's just such a large distance between you and your potential adversaries that you can't provoke anyone. In reality there are several submarine in both the Pacific and Atlantic able to take out a 6th of US population within 3-4 minutes at any given time. Dave argues heavily from the perspective of Mearshiemer, who's IR perspective is so out of date with the contemporary that it's ridiculous. The one thing where Mearshiemer actually is correct, which is military deterrence, is for some reason the only point Dave doesn't seem to agree with him.

    • @novac1990
      @novac1990 Місяць тому +9

      Kinda.
      Japan was holding out for the soviet union to help leverage more advantageous surrender terms with the US.
      Such as the hope they would be able to keep all of the conquered land in China and other parts of asia, immunity for the emperor and various other things.
      When the Stalin declared war on Japan they knew nothing but a total unconditional surrender was there only option.
      The atomic bombings played a large role aswell but not as much as people might think. The fire bombings that had happend previously that were not atomic in some cases were even more devastating do to having largely wooden infrastructure in housing and businesses. This resulted in massive fire storms that quickly destroyed vast areas spreading much farther then where the bombs were dropped at a speed that is terrifying.
      When they lost there navy and aircraft carriers thus losing the ability to reach and destroy US aircraft carriers it was just a matter of time before they were bombed to hell with or without the nuke.
      The atom bomb definitely played a role especially when one bomber with a nuke could now do the damage of fifty standard bombers before (that may be a exageration tho).
      But creating nukes at that time was very expensive just refining the nuclear materials took allot of money and man hrs.

      When you say Japan was holding out hope the soviets would help them get more favorable terms, that necessarily means the soviet declaration was not needed for an unconditional surrender. If the soviets simply didnt exist, there would have been no hope to hold out for. If the US didnt exist, Japan would own the pacific right now.

      @@novac1990 that is fair enough. I apologize if i came off as hostile. This is a subject i feel strongly about because, while you may have had no intention to do this, the extension of the thought "japan surrendered because of the soviets" is almost always "thats why America was really being genocidal and evil when they nuked Japan".
      It sounds absurd to say, but the nukes likely saved millions of lives. The invasion/defense of the home islands was going to be absolutely brutal and it is a good thing that we were able to avoid that outcome.
      Also, listening to Dave Smith talk just gets me heated.

      I agree I think dropping a the nukes was very appropriate almost anything to dissuade a full scale invasion that America did not want because of the death tolls on both sides would have been astronomical.
      The only surrender Japan was willing to give up that point was never going to be accepted by the Allies.
      I think when creating "Operation Downfall" the invasion plan they estimated over 1 million in US casualties when the war had already taken 49,000 US troops.
      The Japenes soldier themselves very very rarely surrendered and Japan had 3.5 million they could pool in a short time at there homeland. Based off past battles where almost all the Japanese fought to the last man or unalived themselves they were confident that would have to kill most of that 3.5 million and no telling how many civilians would die.
      It would have been a much more terrible loss of life than the nukes or the fire bombings.
      Luckily Japan unconditionally surrendered.

      I wished someone would bring that up as at least some point of comparison. Russia also lost in Afghanistan. The US was clearly the more powerful country. Better equipped, bigger population, way richer. For most of the war they controlled substantial amounts of territory and North Vietnam was not making steady territorial gains or anything like that. When they did try a big coordinated attack with the Tet offensive it failed completely. The US suffered significantly fewer casualties too of the course of the war.
      Thr US never really actually got defeated there. There wasn't some killing blow where they had to wave a white flag and surrender. They just eventually decided the war was way more trouble than it was worth, and negotiated a withdrawal.
      Ukraine doesn't have to actually strike some killing blow, or march on Moscow, or chase the Russian army back out of the territory they hold. Their strategy is likely to just make this so difficult that it will no longer be worth Russia's while to stay in. They just need them to do what America did in Vietnam, which is to declare that they're handing over control to the local "rebel" factions and getting out.

And not only that, but we are not in good hands, as we were with JFK during the Cuban Missile Crisis, who did everything he could to come to a NEGOTIATED settlement. Today, we are being led by outright war hawks who are rattling their sabers and looking for any excuse to actually go to war with Russia or China, and there are even some military "experts" who are calling for a "limited" nuclear attack.

Another 10 years and we would have seen an entire generation raised in a country free of Taliban Rule start to come to position of power and be able to make positive changes for their country. Especially since the last 6-7 years are involvement in Afghanistan was very minimal, we had control of Bagram and a few ODAs in country acting as advisors for the Afghan military.

    35:20 conveniently omits Russia's breaking of it's 2003 territorial treaty with Ukraine as well as encroachment on Tuzla island that same year. Russia was aggressively connecting Russian mainland to Ukrainian strategic Crimean territory. Meanwhile when Yanukovich was in power, he simply extended Russia's right to host their military in Crimea from 2017(when the original lease on Sevastopol base ends) to 2042 despite all that (of course). Then, when ultimately people are furious at him due to his blocking of possibilities of trade with EU and of course, he flees immediately and where to but Russia.
