I've seen Scott Lucas on many shows but they didn't let him go into the depths like here. All normal people in Europe and America should view your channel to understand that Ukraine must defeat Russia.
Why Russia stands for the family, for religion, traditional values. It stands against wokism against same sex marriage, against changing the sex of your children. Against the cashless society so you can be monitered from the cradle to the grave. Russia stands against the globalists and their cloud economies. Dont go to your local shop..order on line ? hahaha.
Absolutely!!! It's gonna be a tough old road to travel. But they'll win. The US congress finally quit bickering. And passed (I believe) 60 billion today (2/8/24), for Ukraine. So hopefully Ukraine will be getting a big shipment real soon. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇲💕🇺🇦 Bo Johnson ~ Tucson, AZ
When it comes to Bucha all you need to remember is that was their marching orders. That's not war fatigued soldiers who have been shell shocked, nor conscripts scared at their own shadow. These were the marching orders from the start.
Why aren't the forensics from Bucha released. Because these people died when Ukraine shelled Bucha as the Russians were leaving. Next day these unfortunates were thrown out of a slow moving truck after their corpes had been doctored. They even know who did this black flag opperation...elements of the Cracken Battalion. All the Russian soldiers in Bucha were interegated extensively by the Russian inteligence agencies. Believe me the truth is well known.
Scott's closing remarks are very powerful. This war that ruzzia started in 2014 and invaded all out in February 2022 is personal to me. I have many friends in Ukraine, most are displaced. One friend was murdered in Bucha. His wife and younger daughter barely able to escape. This video should be mandatory viewing for all politicians in the west, especially the maga turds in the US congress. Thank you both for an excellent discussion.
Forgetting her name, the head of RT said they’d retrain the brains of willing Ukrainians and eliminate the unwilling. Now, she’s not Putin, but she is influential and speaks the mind of Russian leadership. Her words don’t surprise me. But, when we talk about Ukrainian suffering, giving Ukraine to Russia is just not an option.
@@nobbynobbs8182 You're delusional if you think we're going to see any high profile ruSSian figure arrested and standing trial in the Hague. We're scared of sending Ukraine the equipment they need to win, through fear of escalation....there's absolutely no way that we're going to have the backbone to arrest these high profile propagandists, let alone Putin. Constantly mentioning the Hague is part of the white noise that is being talked about in this video. It helps nobody. You can't even spell her name for goodness sake.
I'm reminded of the poly of having a media person or an old political ally float an idea to see how much traction it gets.. to start the conversation...
I don't want to see an Ukrainian military absorbed into a Russian army massed on the Polish border. For this reason alone it should be all stops out to help Ukraine. If you don't have much humanity get some self preservation. Thanks again Johnathon for another excellent interview.
So are the Ukrainian so flip flopped that they will jump straight to the Russian side becoming the Russian brothers again. Maybe the cossacks will do as they did in the past many times. Actually even these day some are fighting for Russia and some for Ukraine.
What a superb, thought-provoking interview! Thank you for your continuing work. How fortunate the students of University of Birmingham are to have a professor such as him.
If the members of different political parties are too scared of that ex-president to support Ukraine, I am neither scared of them or him, and WILL support Ukraine, on social media, and with what little my own financial support can. Bullies must be faced down, like the EU has done with Orban. NO, they may NOT scare us away. 🔱🇺🇦
I am very aware of families, soldiers, volunteers and Ukrainians who have lost, limbs, catastrophic brain injury, family members, children and the way of life for the farmers and do many more. 😢
@@philipwright6617 Yes, nobody thought those campaigns were a good idea. But yawn, just more whataboutism trolling. Yet another paid poster. Are you in Ste. Petersburg, an African troll farm or what?
If Ukraine wins this, it will not be through a military victory or any significant military advance. It'll be won through the collapse of russian economy so it can no longer fuel its military. We are well on the way to that happening. To say this has been a stalemate for a year is simply to not understand what progress towards victory actually looks like in this war. Ukraine is well on the way to that victory and should be helped over the last hurdles. The clock is against the russians not Ukraine.
Meat wave attacks, it's what happens when your military isn't led by military trained commanders ! Russian Oil and gas exports, -37% (2023) six refineries hit this month! (-50%?) since war started! (Economy Crumbles!) -$160 billions 2yrs!
Some think that Russians are ready for a long run in this war up to 10 years. And could be true because globalization helps them to run their country. In a real war you have to surround the enemy and cut the economical ties. With Russia is quite hard to do it.
Agree for a couple reasons. 1.) In asymetric war the smaller country wins when it survives. 2.) The Ukrainian attacks on targets behind the front lines, if continued, will take an attritional toll.
Russia may collapse from within, so might Ukraine, where Zelenski / Zaluzhny, corruption and infighting over inadequate supplies seem to be increasing problem.
Sanctions won't stop components from entering Russia, but sanctions are driving up the cost. For example, how much more is Russia paying middlemen to buy washing machines to go to Turkmenistan instead buyn computer chips directly.
Thanks for this great discussion, Jonathan and Scott! Although the subject of the US political landscape is depressing, I am confident that somehow Ukraine will prevail. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 ❤️ Victory for Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤️
I just spoke to someone who worked as an expat in Russia when Russia invaded Ukraine on 24th February 2022 the Russians he worked with cheered on happiness

Oh WELL SAID Scott THANKYOU for your courage in TELLING IT HOW IT IS !!!! A huge THANKYOU to Johnathon also for your insightful questions. 👏👏👏 Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
His closing remarks are so poignant. Think of what happened in Bucha, in Irpin, think about saying to a victim in those towns that their suffering is the West's fault, not Russia's, and see how that sits.
Thank you Jonathan and Scott for your unwavering support of Ukraine and for your insights, thoughts and the light you both shine over the evil of darkness, we appreciate your work 👏🏻❤️❤️👏🏻 May Gods light and love for all protect all the children and civilians of all caught up in this war started by a regime deeply entrenched in old fear and darkness. These energies of old are battling for survival but the light of Humanity is standing tall over this darkness and the light will bring us forward with compassion, benevolence, love and recognition that we all matter and life is precious and realise there is enough for everyone on our planet without wars, evil, greed and aggression trump and his cowboys just like putin belong to yesteryear for their energies are Stale, Old, Dark and fraught with the fear they created for their own delusional entitlement that Serves No One but them!! Glory to Ukraine holding their light over the evil of Darkness, Standing with Ukraine is standing for Your Own Freedom and your children, 🙏🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🙏
THANK-YOU SCOTT AND JONATHAN FOR THIS VITAL DISCUSSION ! Judging by the number of new accounts of the Kremlin's online army that appear to have been spawned in response to this conversation, and tag-teaming the comments . . . well, YOU TWO MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT !!! Excellent insight. Much respect from Canuckistan.
This channel continues to slay with really informative conversastions thank you mr fink your guests from merc anna to starsky to the prof jake and the smily russian version of Budanov he is a curious dude you get everybody involved and that is such a good thing
glad I took the time to listen, because it was exactly what I needed. Scott did not mince words but was clear, concise and absolutely spot on. Thank you for an excellent interview!
That last time couldn’t have been more correct and I wish more people would talk like that. Good on you, sir. That couldn’t have been spoken more honestly and eloquently that is exactly exactly what is happening and it’s disgusting
The moment I saw that video of Zelensky with the gang on the streets of Kyiv I knew Russia was in for a fight they did not bargain for. I'm kinda envious, because if Russia were to invade my country, not only would the politicians and the oligarchs flee, but so too would the regular people.
So I live in Ohio congressional district 6. I was trying to write my representative about how damaging this impasse is...but...I don't have a congressman, currently, because he resigned to take the presidency at a local university. So...nobody to represent us currently. I don't know if someone will be appointed or we just have to wait for the next election. This is BS!
It’s amazing how quickly popular support evaporates when hardship becomes a permanent feature in people’s lives. Russians are experiencing a particularly harsh winter this year. Life there is bleak and it’s going to get much worse under a war economy.
BULLSHIT!!! You obviously don't read any news worthy media. The IMF just reported that Russia is the worlds fastest growing economy. You obviously need to listen to Tucker's impending interview!!😉
With regard to the closing comments, its also telling that Poland and the Baltic states who have recent history with Russia are pretty determined NOT to fall back into the Russian sphere. Any country that could get into NATO or the EU pretty much has or is trying to. You don't need to be a genius to figure it out.
Yes, one would think that russians maybe should start to wonder why it is other peoples don't want to be ruled by them. Somehow they don't seem to do that. This podcast has an interview with James Sherr, around 4 months ago. He lays out how the russians see the world and how what we see currently fits into Russias history (spoiler: It has always been like this since a long time ago).
Good talk. Liked the 'perspective change' at the beginning. Ukraine has far exceeded our initial expectations, yet somehow the narrative is, that they're failing. Or nor succeeding fast enough.
Like most "experts" who said Ukraine would fall, the Ukranian people, military are NOT bowing down to bullies, either the ex- who tried coercion nor that Russian leader who is a very brutal, almost sadistic, leader. Ukraine has more talents for innovation, creative uses of munitions than any military forces in other countries. 💪🇺🇦🔱
Tucker Carlson today is the Walter Duranty of the 1930s. I don't think there's an adequate adjective I could use to describe my contempt for both of them. Thanks for this interview - articulate and knowledgeable guest; a man of great compassion.
I look forward to your latest interviews and sometimes discovering a new person of sane mind to follow, thereby growing my sense of the world. The videos are an island in the refuse filled ocean of disinformation. Truly appreciate you and your team, and what you’ve all produced. Carry on! Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦 Glory to Her Heroes!
Putin paints a wonderful picture of the Russain economy, military success etc.etc. The truth is that beneath the surface Russia is paying a high prices.
Good interview Jonathan and I thank you & Scott, both.🌻 p.s. did you know Jonathan, that Jonathan from ATP Geopolitics, who you had a wonderful interview with last year, is travelling there soon ?!
Thank God we have a Silicon Curtain! Where but a beautiful intellect can such guests be found and interviewed with such skill? This channel is an OASIS of SANITY in a world gone mad! Bless you Jonathan..x In response to Scott's request I would say that this war has moved me more deeply than any in my life. I have never witnessed such barbarity on the part of an industrial nation, the scale of the massacres, the sheer number of rapes and the casual acceptance of torture, the unlawful imprisonment of civilian police and the rape and kidnap of hundreds of thousands of children mark this as the most barbaric and horrific conflict of our age. I used to be a man of peace and sought peace above all, but I am a changed man. Deep down Russia has shown me that there are many fates worse than death and I pray to God for the safety of the stolen children and their eventual return and give praise to Ukraine for her resolve and her heroism apparent on every level. I wonder where we would be without Ukrainian bravery and I do not like the picture my mind takes me to. Slava Ukraine and kindest regards to both Jonathan and Scott..COMPELLING stuff!
@@klaasvakie I will always have more praise for Silicon Curtain, for when it comes to Jonathan the quality is CERTAIN and the topics more epic than a film with Richard BURTON! 😇
@@klaasvakie If by that you mean 'wise' then I thank you 😁 if by that you mean 'old' then I may not thank you for such words would betray you as ignorant of my obvious abundance of youthful exuberance and alacrity of wit! 😁
This has been very interesting. Thank you. My greatest fear, however, is while there is no winning in this pointless war, Russia may not lose it. I sense Ukraine is in a worse place than the Internet wants to acknowledge. My fear is irrespective of Russian losses, pressure from foreign parties, or even the trickle of military support from the West, Ukraine could never inflict enough damage to move the Russian people. They have a long history of enduring incomprehensible hardship for leadership they praise in the streets and dispise in their homes. I refuse to believe all these stupid polls saying Russians support the war and so on. That's nonsense. I believe they will say anything and do anything to avoid getting hassled or worse. Russia is a dismal place and life there is extremely bleak, but the average Russian doesn't seem to care and only wants to get on with their lives. They don't care about each other all that much because it's hard enough trying to get by yourself without sticking your neck out for someone esle. The decadency of the West is code for "the higher living standard social mobility" of the West. Ukraine can't fly a drone in to social complacency.
@@enclaved134 Mila Kunis is Ukrainian and a proud Ukrainian, her charity passes charity Navigator with almost every single dollar going through and some of the lowest administrative costs of any charity and she's already given tens of millions of dollars from the foundation directly to Ukraine in a public ceremony. And she and Kushner also matched donations with their own money.
Puh, what a mess there seems to be in US regarding to all these right wingers, like Trump, Tucker Carlson, MTG, Mike Johnson, Scott Ritter, Alex Jones and so on. 😅 I'm not against free speech but it starting to be a little too much of these voices.
The problem is, countries like these end up totally incapable to win a war. Very much like France in 1940. To win a war you've better turn into a dictatorship for the duration, or else woe of you, you will have no chance.
problem is there was no right voice until the left bombardment of the 70s dictated the forming of right media. all the largest media is left, all tvs news leans left, NY Times, Wash Post, Chicago Tribune, LA Times the largest papers all lean left. Hollywood leans left. Sadly when there is no balance then you get what you have.
I am studying Spanish with Ukrainian refugees and I am going to be asked about Tucker Carlson in class. They want the opinion of someone from the US when they hear the sort of nonsense I just saw from Tucker this evening. We see the faces here. We see a fraction of the suffering. Shame on anyone who makes the false equivalencies he is spouting.
Thank you for this interview. All will be Ukraine. Slava Ukraini

I have never witnessed such barbarity on the part of an industrial nation, the scale of the massacres, the sheer number of rapes and the casual acceptance of torture, the unlawful imprisonment of civilian police and the rape and kidnap of hundreds of thousands of children mark this as the most barbaric and horrific conflict of our age. I used to be a man of peace and sought peace above all, but I am a changed man. Deep down Russia has shown me that there are many fates worse than death and I pray to God for the safety of the stolen children and their eventual return and give praise to Ukraine for her resolve and her heroism apparent on every level.
I wonder where we would be without Ukrainian bravery and I do not like the picture my mind takes me to. Slava Ukraine and kindest regards to both Jonathan and Scott..COMPELLING stuff!
OMG, you wax far too lyrically. Any more where that came from?😂😂😂😂😂
@@klaasvakie I will always have more praise for Silicon Curtain, for when it comes to Jonathan the quality is CERTAIN and the topics more epic than a film with Richard BURTON! 😇
@@Mopsisgone you sound ancient?!😉
@@klaasvakie If by that you mean 'wise' then I thank you 😁 if by that you mean 'old' then I may not thank you for such words would betray you as ignorant of my obvious abundance of youthful exuberance and alacrity of wit! 😁
I feel "owned" by some of his comments, especially around ruzzia's "allies"... and thats a good thing. Thank you.
Thanks for your interesting videos and comments
great interview
This has been very interesting. Thank you. My greatest fear, however, is while there is no winning in this pointless war, Russia may not lose it. I sense Ukraine is in a worse place than the Internet wants to acknowledge. My fear is irrespective of Russian losses, pressure from foreign parties, or even the trickle of military support from the West, Ukraine could never inflict enough damage to move the Russian people. They have a long history of enduring incomprehensible hardship for leadership they praise in the streets and dispise in their homes. I refuse to believe all these stupid polls saying Russians support the war and so on. That's nonsense. I believe they will say anything and do anything to avoid getting hassled or worse. Russia is a dismal place and life there is extremely bleak, but the average Russian doesn't seem to care and only wants to get on with their lives. They don't care about each other all that much because it's hard enough trying to get by yourself without sticking your neck out for someone esle. The decadency of the West is code for "the higher living standard social mobility" of the West. Ukraine can't fly a drone in to social complacency.

I like your list of Charities and I would also suggest the Kunis/Kutchner Foundation which helps Ukrainian refugees.
Given the foundations founders one has to question the percentage of donations acually going to the refugeess.
@@enclaved134 Mila Kunis is Ukrainian and a proud Ukrainian, her charity passes charity Navigator with almost every single dollar going through and some of the lowest administrative costs of any charity and she's already given tens of millions of dollars from the foundation directly to Ukraine in a public ceremony.
And she and Kushner also matched donations with their own money.
Puh, what a mess there seems to be in US regarding to all these right wingers, like Trump, Tucker Carlson, MTG, Mike Johnson, Scott Ritter, Alex Jones and so on. 😅
I'm not against free speech but it starting to be a little too much of these voices.
The problem is, countries like these end up totally incapable to win a war. Very much like France in 1940. To win a war you've better turn into a dictatorship for the duration, or else woe of you, you will have no chance.
problem is there was no right voice until the left bombardment of the 70s dictated the forming of right media.
all the largest media is left, all tvs news leans left, NY Times, Wash Post, Chicago Tribune, LA Times the largest papers all lean left.
Hollywood leans left.
Sadly when there is no balance then you get what you have.
Patrick Lancaster & macgregor, seymour Hersch. All shameless
Agree. Mike Johnson's Twitter account could use your post.
Show for naives!,, MG Gregor, tucker, Trump, Scott riter!,,
Thanks for a great podcast!
I am studying Spanish with Ukrainian refugees and I am going to be asked about Tucker Carlson in class. They want the opinion of someone from the US when they hear the sort of nonsense I just saw from Tucker this evening. We see the faces here. We see a fraction of the suffering. Shame on anyone who makes the false equivalencies he is spouting.
keep it up
as always a good interview.
