  1. Zelenski in the same spech: "We don't need anything foreign" Is that is a plea for the US, EU and Nato to stop sending mercinaries and millatary hardware?

  2. Why you bring in such partisans to discuss this case?

  7.  @maxheadrom3088  So far she has been wrong... While the invasion met all of the goals of the west, the rubel picked up value agaist both the dollar and the euro since. One of the most important western goals was to sanction europe away from russia's and china's economic sphere of infuence.... My impression [speculative 'cause it is in procces and not happened yet] is that will prove to be politically destabelizing of the goverments in europe that were on board with sactioning europe... An example of the kinds of destabilization is that Le Pen almost won in france.... This will cause europe to be a mix of western and eastern market influences. This will cause the US does more antisocial proxy kinds of things to keep market influence over europe and the east sweeting the pot.... The east has a lot of sweet things for econmies: Energy, efficient IT, manufactered goods.... They are the biggest trading parner all over the world.... They got what we need and they are compeating to be able to sell it... That is what the proxy war in Ukraine is about...

  9.  @inconvenientfacts8896  I think I outined my impressions... The sanctions were origionally targeted at europe to isolate europe from russian and chinese markets and make them more reliant on ameican monopolistic cartells. It is an ongoing project for the US... I can't imagine that they have a bigger effect on russia than europe. Still taking 300B in bank assets has to hurt... The probem with that is eventually it will hurt the US more when more contries get isolated and have to do buisness in other currencies. I haven't crunched the numbers myself.

  10. So we need to get a copy of the new york times and send it into the justice department?

  14.  @RHINOTEJAS  The fed split with the treasury in 1913. That was one of the very biggest first sins that destroyed capitalism.

  15. These actions are totally consistant with the rules based order.

  16.  @haroldcruz8550  Is the idea that she has political ambitions speculative or has she expicitly said that she has ambitions? Is it fair to speculate that the anti russian millatary postion is because she is hitching her wagon to those interests?

  30.  @FM-ln2sb  I support your vote for Jill Stein... I will be voting for Trump because a vote for Trump is a vote against the DNC and FOR Trump.

  34. ​ @ryanstone2677  Yes.... Ukraine was a coup that ended in persecution of the Russian population of Ukraine.... When the Russian federation stopped it and agreed to a truce and an agreement signed by Ukraine and Russia, the west decided that they would nullify that agraeement to push the issue to war.... Syria was many masecres and many false flaggs put together by an invading army that contracted with ISIS to disrupt the area and to take the oil.... When Trump decided to pull out US troops he was told NO... Now Gaza is being bombed and Isreal is trying to kill and diplace as many non combatants as it can so that they can have the land, mineral rights.... The conflict in Palistine was set up as a trip wire to make a wider conflict in the region. The administration feels that this conflict as long term set up as it was is comming at in inoportune time...

  35. It is very possible that the strake was on a base in Syria....

  36. Package the build back better plan as a fire wall against chinese hegemony.

  37. ​ @inconvenientfacts8896  This strategy was no thought out well by the west. There is signals that they are toign to try and back track on the economic sanctions... It is clear that I don't really know what is going to happen... In general the US needs to reverse it's neoliberal stance or it is going to lose hegimony post haste. We have gone from a industrial capitalists base to a neoliberal model, more like feudalism... This war is symptom of that policy... One were we are destroying capitol and creating false scarcities. That is why china is so competitive... They are creating capital.

  38. Calrson was agaisnt the war in Ukraine and didn't support the whackiest conspriacy theory of the century: Trump was installed by Putin. Democracy Now said again and again and again that Putin installed Trump. If you are in a glass house don't throw stones.

  39. I think the most imortant part is to make utillities such as banks, healthcare and real estate [make the FIRE sector goverment run] off of the backs of real indsustry, corporate owned or not... You can make a co-op [Industry Free from corporate ownership].but you are still at the mercy of these paracites... And.. .and.. and if you get the paracites off the backs of value making industries they don't have to relocate to other places...

  43. The biden's are intimatly involved in Ukraine corruption.. They know where the bones are burried... Ukraine has bunches of problems including a kind of ISIS which the CIA encouraged to take over... That ISIS is inspired by tradional Nazi's that revere Banderis, a WWll Nazi... A sircharge on gas would be paid by Europe... I am sure they can also pay for the weapons we are sending, in dollars, as well.

  44.  ArtemisSilverBow  It is notable that a German PM with mid east blood is the only one in Germany who is trying to save Germany. I am not sure why the fascists-globalists missed her.

  46. ​ @lelandtsnyder9684  ​ @Leland T Snyder I am not sure DN is not doing value... DN has becoome more main stream and is odvioulsy making compromizes in the era of censorship. Putting a sir charge on russian gas to europe could bring down the eocnomic tension in europe.. Europe for sure is still going to be buying russian gas... It could be a compromise where the theft of russian assets in banks could be returned in exchange for.... In other words making europe pay for Ukrainian infrastructure could work depending on the package.

  47. ​ @zied6456  I tend to think that the 33% vote that the "far right" party got was a vote against the middle facsits and thier economic fragmentaion, support for killing Ukraine as well as Wall Street.

  52. It is kind of odd that the only member of the German parliment who seems to be standing up for Germany and her people is an ethic minority in Germany. Imagine what would happen if ethic Germans could stick up for Germany and Europe in mass?

  59. ​ @ballenboy  Hope for what? I suppose ukraine should stop their eight year war agisnt russians in ukraine... I don't think we have a World War two kind of thing were the americans beat the UK... I tend to think the russians want a close ally in the Ukraine.... I doubt they will act like the Biden admisntration and embezle billions.

  60.  @ChautamGancy  Apearently it doesn't matter who is in office. They can't do much... I was hoping that Trump would go after his enimies in the deep state who put himself and others, including MLK, in danger as well as persecuting them and now lawfair... If there really was an FDR or Sanders they wouln't have much choice other than mobilize huge numbers of people in civil disobedience.

  61. Wouldn't you know it. Democracy now is taking a strong stand against russia despite the eight year civil war against the eastern region of ukraine financed, equiped and trained by the CIA... This despite the clear extermination sentiment by the self-desribed nazis carrying out the carnage. If it were old time DR Who show democracy now seems as if they would be screaming EXTERMINATE! The russian strategy seems to be amassing defending army in Keiv and working to liberate the east.

  66.  @commonsense31  What did I get wrong?

  67.  @inconvenientfacts8896  And the US exited the nazis to coup, burning alive loads of people in Odesa... Then they desided who would be the leader and it hapened... See 'Ukraine Burning' for loads of details. But in any case the US got everything tactical that they were aiming for from the coup/war.... Again, either the US gets it's economy back to progressive capitalist or....
    1
  68.  @inconvenientfacts8896  Sanctions were in the works before the invasion.... The US tried to get the nord stream two shut down... That is how the west is getting what it wants from the war.... It is the motivation for not stopping eastward expansion... Russia said 'no nato eastward' Ukraine to be nutral, no offensive weopns aimed at moscow and denazification... West says we are arming as quick as we can in an eight year civil war agsint russians in ukraine. That was known for thirty years in the west... How can you say that a beligerent state in a civil war against russian ethincs for eight years, increasingly funded by the wes was not provocative?

  69.  @hitreset0291  We were going to say putin is a villian if he didn't do exactly what we wanted and break up russia into different contries... Putin got mixed results. The west got some very bad results... Europe is in big trouble and we have high inflation in the US for a veriety of reasons, most not related to russia... It is probable that europe wakes up and stops supporting the proxy war. They are getting very bad results.

  70. Calson had guests that were well to the left of anyone Democracy Now would ever have on. Supported the people from ST. Petersburg right to free speach, Aired the fact that ISIS chemical false flag operation that was used to bomb Syria.... Anti war in Ukraine, Against the whacky idea that trump was installed by putin... .... I never payed attention to anything he did that was stupid. It was when people who would dare to say things like "trump WAS NOT installed by putin"

  71. I am not a watcher of DN because I was easily angered about the russian narrative that states that trump was installed by the russians.... When in reality trump was installed by the failures of obama's 'hope and change' agenda... In America, the democrats claim that they have no power when they have a supper majority but claim that a win for the republicans would change things radically.... Perhaps the french are getting as tired of that narritive as some of in america on the left.... I have started voting republican because I am tired of getting gass lit by the democrats. With the freezing of europe by sanctions, one would think that these kinds of elecoral contests will be greater, if not now than in the future...

  85.  @inwani  With the effort to institute the minstry of truth and further efforts to censor, it is possible that all we will have as an indictaion of what is true is the oposate of what the media indicates.... So if the media says it it is probably not true but we won't have independent verification after this big push for the goverment and media to shape the main narrative...

  94. ​ @Adam-zz2iz  Indeed you are right... The US goverment and the federal reserve doesn't actually print the money... I believe that is a more complex process that happens in another branch of goverment called the 'mint' where they literally make papper and coin money but I am not really sure... Most money is held in accouts where prodess is allocating money into accounts... It has been the habit of the fed to exchange other people's money for interest bearing money but both interest bearing money and regular money is still money... All dollars were created in this way. Republicans believe in expanding the moeny supply, democrats don't... You must be a democrat.
