Americans try to help Ukraine any way we can and our government does nothing. I’m so frustrated I wanna cry. 😡😭
you know who to vote for end of this year
😊😊
Just wait until the general public learns how many died for so little
If Putin hasn't been removed before that. Can you imagine the average Russian's face when they find out how many Russians have died and how much money wasted for a war that started as a miscaculation and win or lose results in a zero sum gain.
Then again where is the off ramp for Russia or are we at a point where they will have to collapse to reestablish peace?
Shame Putin hasn't got anywhere to flee.
At the concert?
They will never know. The Russians haven’t the respect for each other to even recall the names of the dead.
@@Ok_yes_its_me to further that little man's ambition
@@seanlander9321really no student of history are you.
It took Russia 20 minutes to blame Ukraine without evidence ( despite Isis live streaming the attack) It took Russian authorities 90 minutes to get to the concert hall , despite being within walking distance of it.
All what you said is unfactual.

@@steveb890 A 2 second google search disprove you guys. Listening to ukriane grifters gets you this far.
They supported it.
Complete BS.
It is really was ‘Life of Brian’ish’ with Putin saying “it was Ukraine, it was Ukraine ” and ISIS saying “no, hang on it was us!, it was us!!!!”
Why did ISIS release a video of the alleged ISIS K attackers as proof but blur out the faces of the attackers when Russia already has them in custody then, why would they try to hide their faces?
There is an onion skit. It isn't isis and russia but al qaeda and american conspiracy theorists.

Thank you for this excellent analysis by Maj. Gen. Rupert Jones. I like that he doesn't try to out-think the Ukraine military leaders and gives them credit for fighting as they know how to do it. I also feel it is wrong for Western military people to project their expectations onto Ukraine in this devastating war. We need to continue giving them what they need and let them get on with their heroic efforts without pressures and criticism from the West. These only encourage Putin.
Exactly. Even with support, the Ukrainians are showing courage and resilience. Look at Afghanistan...fully US equipped army and airforce. Crumbled in less than a week. No heart.
Colonel Douglas Macgregor offers realistic analysis on the current military situation. YT Weeb Union is also a good source, in my very humble opinion.
What happened in this Crocus hall?
- If someone somewhere in Moscow or St. Petersburg shows a blank sheet of paper, fully armed and armored "policemen" will be there within 30-90 seconds and capture the person and drag them into waiting vehicles.
- Crocus Hall: There are hundreds of surveillance cameras around and inside the building.
- There is a larger police station in the building itself.
- There is a “special police” station about 2 km away from the hall.
- In the building there is a sprinkler system that runs on water and there is a system with halon gas; i.e. two different fire extinguishing systems.
So what happened?
The terrorists appear in a vehicle and park. They get out with large automatic weapons in their hands. they walk completely calmly to the entrance and into the building. The people sitting in front of the surveillance camera screens could have raised the alarm - in addition to automatic danger detection systems. WHY didn't this happen? As a reminder - someone lifts a white sheet of paper - then it only takes seconds until someone is there....... . Was the entire surveillance staff on vacation at the time of a major event? Were the automatic surveillance systems switched off during a major event?
Then the "police station" IN THE building - was the staff there also on vacation?
Then the police station is about two km away - the emergency services could walk to the Crocushalle in 20 minutes, by car in 5 minutes - why did it take over an hour until the first police officers were on site?
The pictures that exist of what happened - the terrorists don't give the impression that they are in a hurry, as if they knew that they had enough time.
They move completely freely in large parts of the building and shoot people.
they have enough time to start a fire. Not only that, they must have either known exactly WHERE to set the fire in order for it to spread or they knew that BOTH extinguishing systems would NOT work. Afterwards they still have enough time to leave the building undisturbed.
Only someone who knows exactly that there will be no resistance acts like this
Personally, I believe that it was a terrorist attack by an IS group, but I also believe that Putin knew it exactly and that he let it happen on purpose in order to then use it to his advantage. Isn't anyone in Russia asking themselves how this could happen when it usually only takes seconds for someone to be arrested with a blank sheet of paper?
Agree
With a blank sheet of paper you can’t shoot…
In the debate between Team:Malice and Team:Incompetence I am firmly in the Team:Incompetence camp. I assume that some kind of corruption was involved in the misfunction of the sprinkler systems, but I don't think it was necessarily high level corruption from somewhere up in the cloud. Just someone neglecting their duty, or even taking a nice extra paycheck to neglect their duty.
I don't believe that Putin would have organized it in this way, because I don't see the balance of advantages vs disadvantages in regards to regime stability pointing towards a Black Flag attack condoned by the Kremlin.
As for the failure in police reaction, I see nothing there that does not follow logically from incompetence, lack of responsibility and personal cowardness.
They also let the gunmen(!?) escape and get a couple of hundred miles away even though there are stringent checkpoints all around Moscow.

My leadership (if you can call them that) needs to shut up and sit down! Ukraine needs to double down on targeting the Ork's oil production!
USA told Ukraine long ago to punch a line thru anywhere and use speed. The Soviet style and tactics of war are totally different to the American strategy and tactics. Attrition will suit the Russians.
america needs to support ukraine NOW. they (GOP congress) need to stop pussyfooting around and do the right thing. dont abandon another ally.
Ukraine has denied that the US told them to stop targeting oil. My guess is that Ukraine told the US FU and now both sides agree that this never came up.

"all the armor we have given them"...
We have given them left overs and crumbs, a zoo of different types in small numbers, requiring even different tool sizes and lubricants.
Everybody who witnessed these "NATO-doctrine" combined arms exercises towards the end of the Cold War knows, that these "huge strikes" have been based on 5 times the numbers, including superior air power, on a front line of half the length of the one in Ukraine and a "theater" in only one direction, not surrounded by 300°-s.
That 2023 spring offensive according "NATO-standards" anyway never could have worked. Militaries insisting on this and blaming Ukrainian command up to there occurring a re-shuffle are terrifyingly irresponsible and displaced.
As he said the 2022-23 winter was wasted. There was no essentially a pause in the fighting (other than Bakhmut). During that period.
Ukraine cannot fight a war with promises.
Forget US, Europa need to go full throttle!
@@user-mz3in7vo5bwarmongering idiot
Can't fight a war with full NATO support and participation either...
@user-yn7ll3qz1p They've been holding out pretty well so far, considering that military aid from the US has stalled. Two years into Putin's three day war.
It’s over for Ukraine. Zelensky said today that they can’t fight off a Russian offensive. Ukraine is over.

Grateful the population has access to the experience, wisdom and foresight you bring to this diabolically cruel and complex situation. Thank you, and thank you James for the excellent line of questioning that allowed Rupert to cover off so many critical insights that so often get under explored by interviewers.

The tight focus on Ukraine has stripped down russia's military presence and support elsewher, particularly in Syria and Africa. This has allowed IS-K to recover and scale up. Wagner used to be active there, but that has gone leaving only the feeble russian regular army. Putin has it coming.
The former Wagner forces in Africa are now Russian Army run, and very successfully promoting regime change/coups across the Sahel.

Strange with paranoic desease. Peter the great died 52 years old but was very paranoic and tortured his own son until he was dead because he belived the son planned to take over the crown.
Huh ?
As an American I’m wholly embarrassed by the ridiculous demands of my inept, incompetent and impotent government in regard to Ukraine striking Russian oil/gas facilities. The hypocrisy of our government is staggering. We have to sit here and watch Russia destroy the Ukraine and commit genocide, whilst our government sits idle with much needed money/weapons sitting idle in warehouses. Trillions spent in the Middle East on senseless, directionless war however, we can’t help a nation defend itself against the tyranny of a psychopathic dictator whose delusions are tearing the world apart. I’ve never been more embarrassed to be an American, in my nearly five decade existence on this earth.
The traitors in the GOP are trying to guarantee Ukraine's destruction. It really is an embarrassment.
Ukraine will surrender before the end of the year.
If by government you mean the Biden administration then surely they are hampered by Republican majority in the Senate?
Amen
It's election year for you so pragmatism is the way forward. After all, they've got votes to worry about.
Putin is almost like a comedy act that can’t make people laugh! Maybe him and Lukashenko should get together and call themselves Dumb and Dumber!
U are smart person
I think Putin is dumber than Lukashenko. The latter had sense enough to decline sending troops to Ukraine.
Biden should join them, he's a big joke of the world
nice delusion. have you seen our cognitively impaired 'president' unelect in the us? i bet you proudly voted biden though, so youre openly admitting your complicity in voting emotionally.
For Putin as a former KGB officer it must be unbearable that the US is better informed about terrorist risks within Russia than RU itself. Plus the fact that security police responded way too late. His almost fatalistic obsession with Ukraine can't really conceal his ineffectiveness here.
He was informed he chose to ignor it because hating the west is far more important than protecting Russians
It is easy to be well informed when you fund the terrorists and they work for you.
@@isay207 Stalin was the same. The US Marshall Plan offered Russia, Poland, and other countries help but their blind hatred of the West doomed millions of people as the USSR stripped the countries they controlled of its resources. Why would any country snuggle up to Russia with that history?
Clear view.
Of course they are informed. They arranged it.
The idea that Ukraine could have, or should have, fight like a NATO army is insane. NATO manual, chapter 1, Establish Air Supremacy.
It wasn't mentioned, but the fact that Ukraine has yet to receive any aircraft is nothing less than disgusting. Before you tell me it takes time, I already know that. But we were a year and a half into the war before the US agreed to allow even training to start. Far worse than that, Biden prevented Poland from turning over a bunch of MiGs very early in the war because they had some NATO technical upgrades.
The US has still not given any long range missiles other than some ATACAMs cluster munitions. And Germany steadfastly refuses to send any TAURUS missiles.
Thank you, Maj. Gen. Rupert Jones from Ukraine!
Excellent, forthright analysis. Thank you.
Yes, but too many aaeehms, uuhhms for a radio programme. Unprofessional, a nuisance!
Really? Didn't notice.@@antitakt8196
And the big delay allowed Russia to form up massive defensives that tanks could not go through, right?
Is there anyone capable to talk over in Putin’s circle. Hasn’t he insured there are absolutely none?
I think Ukraine’s allies were critical of how Ukraine was fighting because we didn’t supply them with what was needed to really do combined arms, the spring offensive didn’t go well, and the US and others wanted to deflect blame for not sending needed aircraft, etc.
I fully support Ukraine in their fight and agree we need to give them more of everything, even troops. But, why was it a surprise to find the frontline littered with landmines. I saw our de-mining equipment on trucks going to the coast. And why wasn't the head of Ukraine's military not talking to the US military head? I have a lot of respect for the Ukrainians and their ability. I also greatly respect the US, Britain, Norway, France, Poland, Sweden, Italy...military.
The slow waltz for the F-16 big picture. NATO has one goal to protect members. The US has the objective to protect the US, which is why it has spent trillions getting ready for this moment in time and financing NATO for decades. If the US did it all it puts the US as the target, especially nukes. NATO members needed to upgrade their fighters and to arm, as we've all heard about Germany participating in NATO training armed with broomsticks. More importantly, Europe needed to disconnect from Russian resources. That takes time, contracts, budgets, big people meetings. F-35s will surround Russia and China.
This is a long war and the US would like to be around to finish it.
13:45 -- The clumsy pressure from the United States to stop destroying energy infrastructure had actually turned out to be Russian disinfo

Good interview. 👍👍👍
If it wasn't an inside job, this attack comes as a gift to Putler.
I assume that they themselves were already aware of the impending attack and were angry that the Americans made this public.
Every system has difficulties in mobilization unless there is an external enemy. Most Russians are well aware that Russia is attacking Ukraine and not the other way around, so enthusiasm for mobilization against Ukraine is rather limited. This is different with another external enemy, who could possibly be linked to Ukraine.
This alone explains the slow response of the security services. It just came in handy for them. This is not the first time that Russia has been involved in such and other false flag operations against its own population. They will continue to inflate and intensify the attack, and the security services' response will quietly disappear from the narrative.
Yes, but too many uuuhhhms, aeehms... Podcast would be only half as long without all those uuuhhhms!
Excellent points
The Polish Foreign Minster, Radek Sikorski made a great speech in his accurate assessment of the Ukraine war, as he exposed the lies and false propaganda by Putin and the Kremlin regime.
Love the guy.
As opposed to the lies and propaganda the west puts out ?
yeh a warmongering globalist clown. Everything he says is nothing but the honest truth... He also wants us to fight Russia, so why dont you do as he says and take your family to the front line.
Tripe. Pure tripe.
Has Lukashenko thrown Putin under the bus ?
That would essentially mean throwing himself under the bus.
He can't he needs putin support. Lukashenko is unpopular in his country ,

Talk about a revolution
This guy is so much better at analysis than the other Brit appeasers who are frequently interviewed on this channel and advocate for Ukraine to give up Crimea and the other territory occupied by Russia in exchange for a "peace agreement." Of course, they ignore that Russia has never lived up to any agreement, especially concerning Ukraine.
It’s still evidence free. They’re unable to grasp the concept of what’s happening. Why?
What "Brit appeasers" do you refer to? Can't say I know any.
What agreement are you referring to
@@CountScarlioni Then you don't regularly watch this channel.
@@stu281 How about the Budapest Memorandum in 1994 between the US, Russia, and the United Kingdom to all give Ukraine security assurances if they gave up their nuclear weapons. Instead of providing Ukraine with security Russia invaded. There are many other agreements that Russia has broken. Most recently it was the New Start treaty over nukes. There was the Minsk agreement. There were more.
That's a good remark. Putin is humiliating his intelligence services with this whole thing. First, before the attack, not believing it was an actual warning (despite the Russian intelligence probably would believe it was genuine), and then by trying to blame Ukraine (despite the people in Russian intelligence know that's not true). This might be humiliating for them, and they might see that, besides that, what Putin is doing is very damaging to Russia and Russians. After all, many citizens died, and the attitude of Putin makes it easier for a new massacre to happen again, due to not taking ISIS seriously, and treating the Russian intelligence professionals as little kids.

Russia was once a Gas Station with Nukes but is becoming a Gas Station without Gas.
Agh , really? You are so misinformed
As a former KGB officer, it must be frustrating for Putin to see the US more informed about terrorist threats within Russia than Russia itself. Additionally, the delayed response of the security police only adds to the issue. His intense focus on Ukraine does little to hide his ineffectiveness in these matters.

Thats in May 2024. Whilst I cleverly let the media tell you that I'm going there to meet up with my school friend Gladamere Putin because I fancy him.
Best to be on the honest one's side innit?
He mentions the expectation we'd had that Ukraine's 2023 offensive would have been more dramatic with the tanks Ukraine had gotten. He concentrates a lot of the fact that the Ukrainians still have a lot of the Russian-style doctrine that they haven't shaken off. But Perun also mentioned the mines, which are far more concentrated than than standard doctrine. The west was slow to give Ukraine what it needed, and it gave Russia time to really dig in and build all then entrenchments and these ridiculously dense minefields. I don't see how that was a doctrinal problem on Ukraine's part, but maybe there's an element of that too...
Why dont you talk about the guys dressed in blue, in the bleachers, filming the initial shooting, one of them identified, a known FSB agent, signaling to other similar clothed guys also filming and talking on cell phones, looks like they are in on it some how! ! Is this real???

Excellent guest and interview, thank you.
there are lot of questions to be answered in regards to the recent Moscow atrocity! the warning given to Putin two weeks ago weren't even looked into undercover; this really does display a belligerence in the face of common sense . if for instance Putin was attending the theatre its pretty certain there would have been a heavy security presence but none was apparent even in a small degree to the point the terrorists walked around nonchalantly prior to the event ...the capture of the cell was surprisingly quick! so the capacity was there but not active ;this leads one to feel that there was a false sense of security and no fear of risk attached to a public event,this could have been a momentous miscalculation if Putin had wandered into this situation by chance as could have happened.

Heard all this before, no one will take Putin out within his circle.
I agreed they are all scared of each other and trying to curry favour
I think we should think of the outcomes of anyone taking down Putin if that ever happens. What are the options, what would be the implications and the power struggles that will start as a consequence?. If Putin falls and there is a power vacuum Russia probably risks civil war or at the very least balkanization
Balkanization of Russia is exactly what the Washington neocons and Chinese Communists both want.
Do Russian people know what Lukashenko said- was it in state TV?

Good interview, thank you.
He has a right to say what he thinks after what happened just like any other country have
If he wants to blame the attack on Ukraine, then the narrative can be argued, that the shooting won't be called a terrorist attack, and the blame becomes squarely placed on his shoulders, for not keeping the Russian civilian population safe, from the country he attacked.
I thought Trump ran against Hillary? Did I miss something 😂
Obviously
Indeed and Hillary was a weak opponent. He would never have beaten Obama.
The media deserves distrust.they don't even deny it anymore.
