What would the USA do ?? Or Russian subs surrounding Britain ? Wake up little Saxon sheep . The west and their masters of a certain tribe have wanted to take over Russia for 129 years .

Забавно, насколько зомбированы и необразованны западные люди...... Последние эскалации придуманы Байденом специально, потому что он сам понял, что в итоге проиграл все и что его срок пребывания у власти - самый позорный для США. Теперь он пытается отравить срок Трампа ядерной войной. И Россия прекрасно понимает, что эти провокации - всего лишь драка между разными лагерями в американской внутренней политике. А значит, отвлекают Москву, тем более что она добивается успехов на местах. С другой стороны, те, кто хочет поиграть в верного клоуна и размахивать ракетами с угрозами, должны понимать, что они играют в пугало, и если они нажмут не ту кнопку, то на земле не будет места, где они смогут спрятаться от своего окончательного приговора.

It has been said that Ukraine received 50 of the ATACMS, but it doesn't stipulate anywhere how many more Ukraine will receive in the time remaining before Trump takes office. Since Biden is now sending supplies / weapons on a WEEKLY basis, it would be hard to say how many ATACMS are in each delivery. It would be therefore be fair to assume that it won't just be 50 ATACMS Ukraine will receive, since Biden has decided to send / RUSH as much artillery/ bombs ATACMS he can in the time he has remaining in office
The West should be offering Ukraine weapons of greater range and not bowing down to Russia's rhetoric; we really should stop the softly softly approach!
What a belligerent uncle. The problem with the West is that it is stuck in the 1990s and 2000s and believes that if you repeat "we are the strongest" 100 times, the Russian army will disappear, and NATO countries will build hundreds of military-industrial complex factories that work in the air.

There are no aliens around to force countries to stop doing whatever they want to do. Eventually ALL sovereign countries will have independently controlled nuclear weapons. Infact given how few countries in the world are sovereign nations we are pretty much there already.
"failed to stop" - but it's stopped them till today, and it's drastically slowed the military aid to Ukraine for two years. If it wasn't for the fear of Nukes (from a mad man), Ukraine & NATO would have pushed Russian armies back and all the way out of Crimea by now.
his economy is tanking real fast. he needs sanctions lifted, and even that may be too late already to prevent a total collapse. Putin has no choice. If Trump plays his cards right, he can take down Russia without firing a shot. They did the same in 1989. Soviets could no longer afford the nuclear arms race.
Because they think they're on the winning side when they trade 8 tanks and 2000 men for every metre, while the Ukrainians realise that by falling back and keeping that rate up, russia will run out of raw materials & bodies long before the 100+ years are up for them to reach Kyiv at that speed. russia thinks territory is winning. Ukraine thinks keeping it's people alive is. Two very different end goals, but personally, I'd still bet on the country where on the day the invasion was announced, there were grandmas on the street making molotovs to throw at tanks.
Again, we are basing this certainty that Russia will not use a nuclear weapon upon a loss-benefit analysis made from our own understanding of the relative positions. Unfortunately, that same sort of analysis said that they would never invade Ukraine.
True, but if Putin is prepared to use nukes then he was always prepared to use nukes. We can’t be cowed by that possibility. A lot of nukes would be heading his way within a few seconds. We don’t even know if Russia still has a credible nuclear arsenal - America recently spent 50 billion on 500 nukes to keep them working, Russias entire spend is 60 billion.

There is no fear. There is a forecast of the situation 2 steps ahead. While the West is thinking up how to harm Russia, the Russian Federation already has an answer to this and an assumption of how the West will react in this case. And Russia warns how it will respond to the answer.
Why don't you mention something from 170 years ago with no bearing, where 110 men died. But ok... Same war, what happened 1 year and 4 months after that? Yeah, Russia lost. ольгинские тролли 🙄
They keep adding a new 15min interview to the end and re-uploading the whole thing as a new vid under a new title. It's getting quite annoying since I've already seen the first part twice and also the second part already too.
Simply put, there is no way at all that Russia will ever use a nuclear weapon in Europe or probably anywhere in the world. For this particular conflict, they have already been warned not to do it by China and India, which are the only two countries really buying any oil or gas from them.secondly, they have been warned by NATO that the consequences will be massive if they use a nuclear weapon. So if they want to be immediately destroyed and bankrupt, just try it.
Two problems I can see with that: First, Trump avoids having competent people around him since they make his ignorance obvious. Second, if General Hodges was ever offered that position, I'm sure his sense of duty would make him _want_ to accept, but I think he's smart enough to know that he'd be constantly battling against a steady flood of nonsensical BS from the Oval Office and the MAGAts in congress.
This is all eyewash. We are reacting much too late and have discussed pros and cons of longer range missiles too long. Meanwhile Russia had the time to remove their strategic important military headquarters out of reach of the new western weapons. Actually ATACMs will probably have no impact at all on the course of the war.
This is nothing but lunatic raving, a complete misunderstanding of the situation. He wants to risk the lives of Brits and Ukrainians because he doesn't care
Yeah Ben that's why Zelensky closed parliament. All advice to the President has been not to give Ukraine long range weapons because it won't make difference in the end . But Biden in the last 2 months after being voted out all of a sudden went against all the advice
I don't understand why NATO countries continue to allow Russia to export gas and oil through the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea. A ban would cause massive damage to the Russians! Does anyone have an explanation for this?
And what will the ban be? Probably NATO countries should use their ships or planes, but something tells me that the hypersonic missile "Oreshnik" was shown for a reason. Russia will sink a couple of ships and NATO will have to decide whether to escalate further.
Like T-55 Russia has thousands of old ICBM that can be armed conventionally. After all they are no longer practical in a war against USA. Like USA minuteman was all used up on the space shuttle. These big ICBM's are no longer necessary because nuclear warheads aren't nearly as heavy as they once were.
If the US hadnt messed with Ukraine to start with none of this would have happened, so yeah admiting they messed up Ukraine by overthrowing its government and trying to get them in NATO when they promised Russia they wouldnt.
He certainly would if he had any say in this. But he doesn't. The US military industrial complex will tell Mr President exactly how this is going and what he has to sell to the public as his idea. It doesn't actually matter who's in office, in this regard. The POTUS and GOP may dabble in other policies to pass the time of this term, but nothing too fancy, as that's not for them to decide, and neither has it been for the administration before. If the past is anything to go by, Trump will tweet a lot and then go AFK to be golfing at his resort, as he's done his job already, which is simply to keep you idiots separated, and you've eaten it up still wanting for more. There is no more.

We really should be looking for resolution 3 years in, no border concessions on either end but russian reparations to Ukraine and US reparations to Russia. We should all be working together to improve life not wipe it out
Don’t speak too soon. Russia has vast cyber warfare capabilities. And other worrying tools at its disposal. They know nuclear is suicidal and pointless. They only use it as a threatening deterrence. It’s all of the non-nuclear tools that they have, which really concern me.

No. Did Mexico pay for the 55miles of wallet hat was built? No. Did the NAFTA trade deficit drop/lower? No. Did he included the ANA in the negotiations with the Taliban?

This guy appears to have absolutely NO appreciation for the provocative actions NATO countries and Ukraine have taken since the US-led Ukrainian coup of 2014 - which led to the Russian annexation of Crimea.
It's funny how 30% of regained Kursk region (which is deadly over exaggerated) in the beginning of the video, becomes 50% closer to the ending. Quality of analysis is just uncanny
The use of american-made Storm Shadow missiles or any other missiles it's no different than using American gun or American army tanks and how can another country tell one country what do you use to defend yourself with
But hes just destroyed 5 ATACMS launchers and killed around 80 USA and French "specialists". Seems to me Putin has by far the best deal compared with the failure of ATACMS and Storm Shadow to do more than minor damage.
We need to close the loopholes in ruz sanctions and put as muh economic pressure on putin as possible. Private corporations in allied states are evading sanctions and working against the interests of the respective nations. The ruz economy is nearing the edge we should give it a nudge. Another way would be to provide such capabilities that would reach strategic facilities further. Germany must step up or its status decline will be inevitable.

Trump is not a business man. Trump is a circus performer and a con-artist. Remember, as a "business man", he actually bankrupted a casino. Think about that.
6 year terms, split into thirds and run every two years for ⅓ of the seats. They're a lot more stable positions than those in the House (2 year terms - so near constant campaigning), or Presidency (4 year term). It used to be were most of the compromising and governing for the long term came from, until relatively recently. That said, there are a fair few senators from before maga arrived that just got re-elected and are likely to retire in 4-6 years. They don't have any reason to fall in line with the crazies as it stands, so there's still hope that some of the worst policies get blunted. Extra Ukraine aid would likely need to go through either chump or the House though.
@@thedeadmoneyallstars Wow. Thank you ever so much. To me, that is ever such a complicated way of doing things…. In the Uk, things seem a lot simpler.

The only elections are for the Commons……that’s it. The Lords are either hereditary or appointed by ministers and that is for life and the Monarchy is as you would expect.1,000 years and counting. Very stable. Each level is accountable and could theoretically be removed by two of the others. Won’t happen.

Kursk has been a "morale" booster for the Ukrainian population and the troops. How would history have been changed if the Wehrmacht had been bogged down after 2 years in Poland? What if the Wehrmacht had invaded Poland and not brought enough fuel or food to reach Warsaw? What if the Luftwaffe was not able have air dominance after 2 years in Poland? Why are all of the armchair generals ignoring the incompetence of the invader? This war should have been over in 3 weeks, or 3 months at most. Now north Koreans are supposedly on the battlefield. Will Iranians or Chinese be next? Should the Russians kept nibbling at Ukraine with their "little green" men?

И лишь благодаря предателю Горбачеву, а затем предателю Ельцину результаты референдума крымчан не были приняты во внимание в угоду США!После незаконного госпереворота и начала гражданской войны на Украине, крымчане провели референдум о выходе из состава Украины и присоединились к России! Результат голосования за Россию был более 90%!!! Крымчане ликовали, все вышли на площади с российскими флагами, счастью их не было предела и все они скандировали: Крым вернулся домой"!!!

This is consistently one of the funniest sites on RUclips.
I would love to see Ben Hodges appear on Joe Rogan, I'm sure it would be helpful to expose his *huge* listener base to someone educated on the topic.
Stop arguing, just agree to stop the war , save lives , don’t try to be too smart .
Simple, russia back behind the 1991 borders
WELL SAID MR HODGES,HI FROM AUSTRALIA
Please tell me,why is Russia afraid of American and western weapons when they are using Chinese, North Korean and Iranian missiles???
There is no fear. There is a forecast of the situation 2 steps ahead. While the West is thinking up how to harm Russia, the Russian Federation already has an answer to this and an assumption of how the West will react in this case. And Russia warns how it will respond to the answer.
Probably because its not North Korea or Iran targetting their missles, like we are targetting Ukraines.
@@Oleg_lvanovhow many times does it issue the same old warning? It's becoming hilarious.

It's getting quite annoying since I've already seen the first part twice and also the second part already too.
It's the weekend old stuff shown
Why do we have to support Ukraine? F that
Simply put, there is no way at all that Russia will ever use a nuclear weapon in Europe or probably anywhere in the world. For this particular conflict, they have already been warned not to do it by China and India, which are the only two countries really buying any oil or gas from them.secondly, they have been warned by NATO that the consequences will be massive if they use a nuclear weapon. So if they want to be immediately destroyed and bankrupt, just try it.
General Hodges would make a great Secretary of Defence. The clown that Trump has nominated has Zero qualifications for the job.
That's the plan cause it's a clown show
He is a WAR MONGER LIKE JOHN BOLTON, you are cr4zy
Two problems I can see with that: First, Trump avoids having competent people around him since they make his ignorance obvious. Second, if General Hodges was ever offered that position, I'm sure his sense of duty would make him _want_ to accept, but I think he's smart enough to know that he'd be constantly battling against a steady flood of nonsensical BS from the Oval Office and the MAGAts in congress.
This is all eyewash. We are reacting much too late and have discussed pros and cons of longer range missiles too long. Meanwhile Russia had the time to remove their strategic important military headquarters out of reach of the new western weapons. Actually ATACMs will probably have no impact at all on the course of the war.
Excellent Podcast!!!!

Ben Hodges can perform well if he were a traditional healer.
I agree with you! What is the point of dropping nuclear bomb?
It would also make Russian citizens exposed to nuclear radiation,
Why only mention Russian citizens ?
Because the Russian elite have bunkers and hoarded wealth. They couldn't give a flying F**k if their own people suffer.
I think you have very little understanding of what this war is about and what is going on
Yeah Ben that's why Zelensky closed parliament.
All advice to the President has been not to give Ukraine long range weapons because it won't make difference in the end . But Biden in the last 2 months after being voted out all of a sudden went against all the advice
I don't understand why NATO countries continue to allow Russia to export gas and oil through the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea. A ban would cause massive damage to the Russians! Does anyone have an explanation for this?
And what will the ban be? Probably NATO countries should use their ships or planes, but something tells me that the hypersonic missile "Oreshnik" was shown for a reason. Russia will sink a couple of ships and NATO will have to decide whether to escalate further.
Bribes
think you don’t fully understand the situation and the repercussions this will have on European countries.
Like T-55 Russia has thousands of old ICBM that can be armed conventionally. After all they are no longer practical in a war against USA. Like USA minuteman was all used up on the space shuttle. These big ICBM's are no longer necessary because nuclear warheads aren't nearly as heavy as they once were.
This smells like old news. The calculus changed when Trump won. He'll leave Ukraine hanging out... IMO.
Trump is nor president until the 20th January 2025
If the US hadnt messed with Ukraine to start with none of this would have happened, so yeah admiting they messed up Ukraine by overthrowing its government and trying to get them in NATO when they promised Russia they wouldnt.
He certainly would if he had any say in this. But he doesn't. The US military industrial complex will tell Mr President exactly how this is going and what he has to sell to the public as his idea. It doesn't actually matter who's in office, in this regard. The POTUS and GOP may dabble in other policies to pass the time of this term, but nothing too fancy, as that's not for them to decide, and neither has it been for the administration before.
If the past is anything to go by, Trump will tweet a lot and then go AFK to be golfing at his resort, as he's done his job already, which is simply to keep you idiots separated, and you've eaten it up still wanting for more. There is no more.
Five missiles shoot downed....know?? 300 km missile couldn't harm putin.

We really should be looking for resolution 3 years in, no border concessions on either end but russian reparations to Ukraine and US reparations to Russia. We should all be working together to improve life not wipe it out
Don’t speak too soon. Russia has vast cyber warfare capabilities. And other worrying tools at its disposal.
They know nuclear is suicidal and pointless.
They only use it as a threatening deterrence.
It’s all of the non-nuclear tools that they have, which really concern me.
We have that too
Cyber warfare, and chemical (and possibly biologcal) weapons are much more likely to be used.
Ukraine has Great Courage

Lol first go back and learn his term's history.
@@user-my2tg4wc4r ergonomicChair is correct.

He is an overly emotional petulant impulsive and irrational man child. Ukraine should promise to put his name on something and they'll have him where they want him.
@@user-my2tg4wc4r Ok, how much of the border wall did he get build? 55miles because he couldn't get any bipartisan support. Did he manage to pass his infrastructure bill?

No. Did he give the Taliban EVERY concession they demanded from Trump? Yes. Did North Korea stop launching missiles? No they tested a nuke 7 days after he met with Kim.
What deals did he make? He failed in the business world by8 large, only propped up by daddies money... and he failed to pass ANY bipartisan legislation.

It's funny how 30% of regained Kursk region (which is deadly over exaggerated) in the beginning of the video, becomes 50% closer to the ending. Quality of analysis is just uncanny
The use of american-made Storm Shadow missiles or any other missiles it's no different than using American gun or American army tanks and how can another country tell one country what do you use to defend yourself with
Storm shadow missiles are made by the United Kingdom not the United States of America just wanted you to know that.
The Storm Shadow is Franco-British, not American.
Of course it's no different, except that it requires UK military, UK satellites, UK flight missions. It's just an act of war.
It's from the enemy
@@simoncardie9371 Wrong. If it uses American satellite guidance and targeting, it's American. Otherwise it's just a flying bomb with no where to land.

But hes just destroyed 5 ATACMS launchers and killed around 80 USA and French "specialists". Seems to me Putin has by far the best deal compared with the failure of ATACMS and Storm Shadow to do more than minor damage.
Why doesn't anyone talk about why the Ukrainians aren't hitting Russian refineries and oil infrastructure?
They have been doing so, but it hasn’t the weapons number, nor did it have permissions.
because a rise in oil prices hits America too.
Ukraine 🇺🇦 eastward expansion into NATO undermine the James Baker accord in the Germany reunification that NATO would not move not " 1inches eastward.
We need to close the loopholes in ruz sanctions and put as muh economic pressure on putin as possible. Private corporations in allied states are evading sanctions and working against the interests of the respective nations. The ruz economy is nearing the edge we should give it a nudge.
Another way would be to provide such capabilities that would reach strategic facilities further. Germany must step up or its status decline will be inevitable.

Won’t the Senate just do as they are told or come mid terms, they won’t selection?
I’m British so a bit lost
6 year terms, split into thirds and run every two years for ⅓ of the seats. They're a lot more stable positions than those in the House (2 year terms - so near constant campaigning), or Presidency (4 year term).
It used to be were most of the compromising and governing for the long term came from, until relatively recently.
That said, there are a fair few senators from before maga arrived that just got re-elected and are likely to retire in 4-6 years. They don't have any reason to fall in line with the crazies as it stands, so there's still hope that some of the worst policies get blunted. Extra Ukraine aid would likely need to go through either chump or the House though.
@@thedeadmoneyallstars
Wow.
Thank you ever so much.
To me, that is ever such a complicated way of doing things….
In the Uk, things seem a lot simpler.
The law makers are ultimately the House of Commons (elected), checked by The Lords to make sure it is in the best interests of the people and finally signed off by the Monarch to pass into law.
The only elections are for the Commons……that’s it.
The Lords are either hereditary or appointed by ministers and that is for life and the Monarchy is as you would expect.1,000 years and counting.
Very stable. Each level is accountable and could theoretically be removed by two of the others.
Won’t happen.
So jumping back
As I now understand a bit more I shall be able to watch things unfold more informed.
Thank you for taking the time to explain this.

More deep thoughts from jack handy.
Kursk has been a "morale" booster for the Ukrainian population and the troops.
How would history have been changed if the Wehrmacht had been bogged down after 2 years in Poland?
What if the Wehrmacht had invaded Poland and not brought enough fuel or food to reach Warsaw?
What if the Luftwaffe was not able have air dominance after 2 years in Poland?
Why are all of the armchair generals ignoring the incompetence of the invader?
This war should have been over in 3 weeks, or 3 months at most.
Now north Koreans are supposedly on the battlefield.
Will Iranians or Chinese be next?
Should the Russians kept nibbling at Ukraine with their "little green" men?
The Ukrainian losses in Kursk are staggering.
