Hi Sam. We can always talk in terms of questions as a back and forth in regards to present conditions so let’s refer instead to the past and clear historical transgressions of US hegemony and failed empire everyone without an agenda clearly agrees on. Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan are its most recent examples of vast geopolitical overreach to the extent it’s easily argued criminal intent was involved. Dick Cheney and Henry Kissinger are surely war criminals under international law as is Netanyahu today. Genocide is now also a valid claim by international law that needs proper investigation along with the mass graves found in Gaza. So really what you’re saying by your line of questioning is - “this time is different”? And yet nobody from the Israel lobby has clearly outlined why Palestinians need be forced from their homeland? As if that’s even a reasoned line of thought. So instead all arguments for genocide are cloaked now in antisemitism as the cause. This is an obvious political creation once again and most people no longer believe this cynical abstraction. Which is a great moment btw!!

As to Ukraine, we can’t really discuss it in detail as again you refuse to even allow for even the most basic of historical and factual analysis to enter your arguments. Victoria Nuland, for example, was instrumental in the 2014 regime change that has been extensively documented and subsequently fired for her failures in the proceeding failed war with Russia. Let’s just say for arguments sake Ukraine will lose this war miserably in 2024-25 as it will almost certainly do. How was that possible given all the billions in funding from the US? I’ll ask you again when it comes to fruition.
