    1. Sacks says quite clearly do what Putin says or else. Getting rid of dictators never comes easily. I am European and want the RF military weakened. This is happening, NATO means USA is an arrogant line. gbhl. The Nordstream event was clear from day one.

    2. Conclusion (as Robert F Kennedy Jr says): After all, Putin was right about everything! And he really was!
      Karma cannot be stronger: Putin has transformed himself in the eyes of the planet into the greatest statesman since the IIWW at the same time the USA has never had so much mediocrity and war criminals at the head of the nation's destinies.

    3. what a load of BS. Simply put, there is no possible peace agreement with Russia. Anyone who is a student of Russian history will know that it is as imperialist as a state can be. It believes in having a much larger empire. It is in its DNA.
      The USA and the west did NOT agree to keeping NATO countries where they were in 1989. Sachs is absolutely wrong and he has no written evidence that there was any such agreement. It is absolutely within any country's rights to request entry to NATO and it is decided according to their entry rules.
      Russia has broken every agreement that they have ever made and that is what we need to understand. Russia wants the land and just like, for the last 100+ years, Russia has always wanted to erase the Ukrainian identity. It will always be true. If Ukraine falls, the Baltics will fall after that and then Romania and so on. Study your history folks and listen to Putins words. He wants the USSR back and has said as much.

    4. So the Ukrainians were simply mindless dupes an went along with a country (USA) who clearly has a horrible track record in supporting its"friends" (montagnards, South Vietnamese, Kurds…twice!)

      While the US is hardly a svengali Nation, Dr Sachs simply dismissed the agency of the Ukrainian people in deciding what to do in their own country and how to respond to the Russian invasion

    5. It is long overdue to put Nuland-Kagan, Pyatte, and Blinken to prison. They have organized the Nazification of Ukraine and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of human beings. The Nuremberg Code identifies Nuland-Kagan as a war criminal.

    6. MSNBC said just yesterday Ukraine is destroying Russia so what is it . I look at the map but Ukraine has not took no land back. The summer offense didn't work. You news channel need to get on the some page keep the ly going saying Ukraine is winning or tell the truth and say Russia winning

    7. "Bob, you can't let this guy disrepect you like that. He's bigger, but I've got your back."

      Bob lying on the ground bleeding — "You need to end this, I've got somewhere I need to be."

    8. They were lying about NordStream, come on, next thing, you will be trying to tell me the sun is going to come up tomorrow morning!

    9. Ukraine the US and EU will have no say on what conditions will be enforced by the Russians, the inevitable outcome will weaken all of the collaborators for many years to come , this has been on the cards with every debacle from Vietnam through to Benghazi finally the empire building by the US has come to a grinding holt.

    10. The Hill Rising is the very definition of controlled opposition. Always a day late and a dollar short. Aww Shucks you mean he has been lying? Who would have guessed. You mean that "thing" wasnt safe and effective? Darn! Who could have known!

    11. Why is an economist being interviewed about war and foreign policy?! It's like calling your lawyer to fix your leaky faucet instead of your plumber…..WTH? The number of assumptions he makes in that whole spiel is astounding. Yes, war could have been avoided – all we had to do is let Putin have whatever he asked for. C'mon Neville Chamberlain – wake up.
