1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: Is the war in Ukraine actually lost?

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 2: Today on the David Rutherford Show, I welcome international businessman

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,799
Speaker 2: and former combat veteran Stephen Kuhn.

4
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: Stephen Man, thank you so much.

5
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 2: For coming on the reason why I absolutely wanted to

6
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: get you on is I watched one of your videos

7
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,319
Speaker 2: recently that you posted about Ukraine, and it was so

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: poignant and so direct as to what the actual ground

9
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: scenario is going on of anything I've been hearing other

10
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: than Scott rid Or recently. But I just I really

11
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 2: appreciate you coming on. I'm really looking forward to your insights.

12
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 3: Hey, my pleasure, and the more we can get the

13
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 3: message out, the better.

14
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: Awesome important all right, current status of Ukraine from your perspective,

15
00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: who's winning, who's not? Where do they stand militaristically, financial

16
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: and other key aspects of the relationships that are driving this.

17
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 3: Well, you know I have I have in my intel's

18
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 3: from from both sides, so I sort of have a

19
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 3: nice mix of it all. And there are there's conflicting

20
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 3: reports on just about everything you can talk about. But

21
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 3: what I do know is that the European Union is

22
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 3: will not give up until this war is being fought.

23
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: Like they will not give up there. They're they're betting

24
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 3: everything that they have on this war and they're losing it, right,

25
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 3: They're they're absolutely losing, and Ukraine's losing. They're losing more.

26
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 3: I don't know what the what the ratio is, but

27
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 3: they're losing something like three to four to one soldiers.

28
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 3: There's all kinds of there's a big propaganda push against

29
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 3: Russia right now. The gas lines that you know everyways broke,

30
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 3: the recruiting old old troopers and things like that. But

31
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 3: my guys, my EXSF, my ex Special Forces guys, PEZ

32
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: not guys or whatever. They're like, nah, it's not true. Uh,

33
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 3: you know, Russia is very in a very strong position

34
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: and they could they can milk this war for the

35
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 3: next three to five years, no problem at all.

36
00:01:59,280 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: Wow.

37
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, and so this is what they're telling me. So,

38
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: you know, and that means does Putin want to end

39
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 3: this war and then like sort of cut the borders

40
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 3: and you know, late laid down the law or does

41
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 3: he want to basically suck the EU dry and teach

42
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 3: them a lesson. That's where we're at right now in

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: my opinion, because the EU will not you know, on

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 3: one hand, they say we want peace, we want peace,

45
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 3: and then they say, okay, let's do it. Well, no,

46
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 3: we're not going to talk to Russians. Well, how can

47
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: you have peace without the diplomacy? It just doesn't work.

48
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 3: And then people say, why isn't the EU and invited

49
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 3: to these peace songs. It's because they have no legitimacy,

50
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 3: they have no credibility. Most of the leaders Macrone, Fund

51
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 3: the Lion, and all of these puppets, they literally have

52
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 3: done nothing of substance in their entire life, and the

53
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 3: ones who have, they're wanted in their own countries, like

54
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 3: funded Lion is you know, has criminal charges in Germany,

55
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 3: and I forget the other guy's name from Portugal, the

56
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: president he's also has charges against him in Portugal. So

57
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 3: they send them to the EU and say do what

58
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 3: we say and you won't go to jail. And so

59
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 3: they lie to you. They know their lion, you know

60
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 3: their lying. The public knows lying, and everybody treats like

61
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 3: it's real. It's an absolute farce and it's a joke.

62
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 3: And Russia knows it. Lavrov definitely knows it, and I've

63
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 3: seen messages from him where he's pretty much at the

64
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 3: point where It's like, look, we can't trust anybody anymore.

65
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 3: Even Trump keeps flip flopping. He says something in public,

66
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 3: and he says something different in private, and he goes

67
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 3: back to public and says something different again. And they said,

68
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 3: we're going to What did he say? He said, we're

69
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 3: going with the Supreme Leader's decision and this war hour

70
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 3: a way.

71
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: Wow.

72
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 3: That was his words, specifically his words from Lavrov directly.

73
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:31,000
Speaker 1: Wow. Now you know.

74
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: Just recently, Putin was interviewed for five hours and asked

75
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 2: just about answered every single question that the media asked him,

76
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: almost to a point where it seemed like he was

77
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: almost like Trump in his desire to just speak his

78
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: mind in real time. What do you why do you

79
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 2: think that the europe the people of the European Union,

80
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 2: the people of the Calk says, why do you think

81
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: they continue to listen to the propaganda that the EU

82
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 2: is putting out.

83
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 3: You know, it's hard to say, because they're not.

84
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: They're not.

85
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: I don't know anyone that's listening. Very few people are listening.

86
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 3: The only ones that are listening. Is the same thing

87
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 3: in the states that the ones that have to hang

88
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 3: on to the to their structure of the entire life

89
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 3: that they've built around these lines, and they you know,

90
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 3: they believe, you know, the Democrats are the liberals, or

91
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 3: we stand for peace and all this kind of stuff.

92
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 3: But every action they take and every word they speak

93
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 3: is the contrary. And you know, cognitive dissonance, you've heard

94
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 3: of that before. But the people don't want this, The

95
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 3: people don't want to work. There's people online now there's

96
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: a big German push that people go online and they say,

97
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 3: I denounce my government, I do not support this war

98
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 3: and they will not do it in my name in

99
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 3: case they do it anyway, I want this for record,

100
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 3: especially Germans, for obvious reasons, right alutely. And then you

101
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 3: have like the secret VW board meeting they had with

102
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,039
Speaker 3: the shareholders where they said, look, this is our worst

103
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 3: year we've had in a long time, but next year

104
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 3: we're going all the way up because we're went over

105
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 3: into war production. So they're already planning this. Industry, big

106
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 3: industry in Germany is already planning this, and it's a

107
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,279
Speaker 3: it's a scary thing because they're planning it in order

108
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 3: to ship everything to the Balkans and Baltics and the

109
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 3: Slavic states in order to have the battle there, and

110
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 3: that includes of course Hungary, which is one of the

111
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 3: last you know, sort of conservative strongholds in Central Europe,

112
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 3: central eastern Europe. And so it's a it's a it's

113
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 3: a it's a it's a quagmire right now. But the

114
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 3: people they don't want it. I don't know anybody who

115
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 3: wants it. I don't know if you know, but you

116
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 3: know one of the co founders what became the a

117
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 3: f D in Germany, Oh, well, the three of us, yeah, myself,

118
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: Beatrix Funch Stores and s Fen Flinch Stores, and Beatrix

119
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 3: is a vice chair right now. They were just in

120
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: the White House two weeks ago with Jada Vance and

121
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: with Jim Jim Jordan, and you know, they had had

122
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 3: a bunch of a bunch of meetings about this.

123
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 2: So the question I have what happened to those uh

124
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 2: uh eighth the individual politicians that were that died right

125
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 2: before the elections. I mean, I try to search for

126
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,799
Speaker 2: any type of story I could, and I didn't find anything.

127
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: What's going on with that?

128
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 3: Well, the strange thing about that is I reached out

129
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 3: to my intel guys. There was no wires from no embassy,

130
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 3: from no intel nothing. It's the strangest thing I've ever

131
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 3: seen when it comes to intel, because I've seen a

132
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 3: lot of strange things.

133
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 1: But I'm sure you have to yes for sure.

134
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 3: But there was seven out of fourteen, so fourteen politicians

135
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 3: died within a two week period. Seven of those were

136
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 3: from the AfD. One of them was regional. All the

137
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 3: other ones were just citywide or even county wide, so

138
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 3: very very low level, no impact, no nothing. I looked,

139
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 3: tried hard, and the AFT leadership that I was speaking

140
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 3: you said, it isn't what it looks like, don't worry

141
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 3: about it. Just that answer right there showed me that

142
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 3: it probably is something else. I couldn't find any information

143
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 3: on it, even the people that I know that aren't official,

144
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 3: the official people, I couldn't find anything on it. What

145
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 3: it seems to me is, let's do something here at

146
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 3: a low level. It's sure the reaction is and then

147
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 3: see what happens later. And if you look at you

148
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 3: know what they're doing in the Balkans and the Slavic

149
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 3: states where they're just annulling you know, elections are in

150
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 3: Poland where they sold half the election. People are accepting

151
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 3: everything these days because the information flow is so quick.

152
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: They get you on the next thing. It's distraction, distraction, distraction,

153
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 3: and your distraction number three and two distractions ago, they

154
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 3: just killed somebody and you already forgot about it. So

155
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 3: it's so fast moving right now. But the only reason

156
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 3: they're moving this fast is because they're panicing because they're

157
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 3: losing control because Trump, believe it or not, is dismantling

158
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 3: the world order and it starts with the UK. I

159
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 3: don't know if you know about all that, but you

160
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 3: know there's all that kind of stuff.

161
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: They control it.

162
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, now they're moving really quick like this,

163
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 3: and they're doing whatever they can do to make it work,

164
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 3: and they will. You know, they have meetings every week

165
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 3: with zilian Ski and the EU and they're shaking hands

166
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 3: and patent backs and everything. It's all just showing they're

167
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 3: not getting anything done. They're just pledging more and more money,

168
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 3: which they don't have. That's Germany's Germany.

169
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 2: That's the fascination because you I know you do and

170
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 2: you've done have been very successful in international business, in

171
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 2: particular over in Europe.

172
00:07:59,040 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: Can you give us a.

173
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: Breakdown of the EU and those different countries where they're

174
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 2: at versus Russia. Where are they still buying Russian fuel?

175
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: Like economically, are they prepared to go to war in

176
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: the future. It doesn't seem like they are.

177
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 3: They're not because they are still buying Russian fuel. They're

178
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 3: buying it directly from Russia. And if they're not buying

179
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: it directly from Russia in order to you know, skirt

180
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 3: the sanctions, it goes Tozikstan and they do what they

181
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 3: call a mix, right, a blend, and they'll take one

182
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 3: percent Kazak oil and put it in a barrel of

183
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 3: ninety nine percent Russian oil and call it Kazakh oil.

184
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 3: And they've they've been doing that since the war starting.

185
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 3: And I'm in that trade, oil and gas trade, so

186
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 3: we know what we know that's what they're doing, and

187
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 3: that's that's an open secret. So they're spending billions of

188
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 3: dollars a month on Russian energy and they're they're they're, they're,

189
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,079
Speaker 3: you know, of course, for Trump, this is the perfect

190
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: opportunity to tell them, you know, American energy, right, So

191
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 3: that's that's where he's leveraging this at. But still it's

192
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 3: it's not enough. They need this Russian energy, and so

193
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 3: they're behold they're basically financing their own enemy when they're

194
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 3: buying the fuels. Well, think about it, they're sending him money.

195
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 3: He's putting money into weapons of shooting back at him.

196
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 3: It's it's crazy and that just shows you right there,

197
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 3: what kind of game this is. This is not about

198
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 3: winning sovereignty of Ukraine. It's not about you know, the

199
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 3: Ukrainian liberty. The people are suffering are the Ukrainians. My wife,

200
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 3: you know, her parents, their house is gone. You know,

201
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 3: we're here with us now in ty. We brought him

202
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 3: out it, We brought them out of Ukraine, brought him here.

203
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 3: Her apartments there, windows are blown out, doors are blown out,

204
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 3: but her apartment's still there. Who knows if it'll ever

205
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 3: be in places she's in Kharkief from Harkiev. The Ukrainian

206
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 3: are suffering, and no one's doing.

207
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: Anything about it.

208
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 3: Everybody talks about oh yeah, you know, and you know

209
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: is fly by Ukraine. You don't know jack about what's

210
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 3: going on over there. When you say that, because the

211
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 3: Ukrainians are like, yeah, they do something. If you care

212
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 3: about us, then do something. But you're not doing anything.

213
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 3: You're basically bolstering a puppet, a guy who's an actor,

214
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 3: and all of the all of the European Union leadership,

215
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 3: I don't want to say the Europeans, but the European

216
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 3: Union leadership from the line and her dwarfs that are

217
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 3: out there trying to, you know, drive us into war

218
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,320
Speaker 3: no matter what. And there's a plan in place, there's

219
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 3: a paper, there's a draft, everything's in place by twenty

220
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 3: twenty nine to go full out war with Russia, and

221
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 3: now they're trying to speed it up.

222
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: Wow.

223
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 2: You know, I watched the video that you posted with

224
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 2: your wife, and I was incredibly.

225
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 1: Moved by that.

226
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 2: You know, I mean when you hear somebody from the region,

227
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: you know, really kind of say, hey, this is not

228
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 2: what we want, we want peace. Ukrainians want peace, and

229
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 2: then you begin to realize the sheer you know, control

230
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 2: that the like you said, the European Union in NATO

231
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: in terms of mark Root, you know, and their control

232
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 2: over Zelenski as a puppet is staggering. You also posted

233
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: a video about Victor Orbon and I definitely want to

234
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 2: get into him, but before I do, I want to

235
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 2: give a shout out to one of our big sponsors,

236
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 2: one of my favorites, Patriot Mobile every choice we make

237
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 2: is an opportunity to stand up for freedom, even something

238
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: as simple as your cell phone service. Now here's the truth.

239
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 2: Most cell phone providers don't care about you. They just

240
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 2: want your money. Patriot Mobile is different. For over twelve years,

241
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: they've stood with Americans who believe in faith, family, and freedom,

242
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: contributing millions of dollars to Christian conservative causes. Best part

243
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 2: is with Patriot Mobile, you don't have to sacrifice quality

244
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 2: or service. Patriot Mobile offers premium access to all three

245
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 2: major US networks, so you never have to worry about

246
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 2: what kind of coverage you're gonna get. Think switching is complicated,

247
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 2: It's not. Keep your number, keep your phone, or you

248
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,200

262
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: said that you had lived there. Can you describe the

263
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 2: importance of hungry and preventing full scale war in the Balkans?

264
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 3: Well, to put it bluntly, it's history. If you look

265
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 3: at Hungary, it used to be the Hungarian Austrian Empire, right,

266
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 3: and then if you look at Serbia, they were split up, you,

267
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 3: Slavia was split up. All of these Balkans, the Slavics

268
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 3: and the Baltic states, they were all split up and

269
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 3: gutted and raped from Western powers. And they didn't forget that.

270
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 3: And Orbon specifically started out as a student and protesting

271
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 3: and he became then prime minister, you know, and then

272
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 3: he was unseated for a couple of years and he came back.

273
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 3: He's been there since twenty ten and he's a very

274
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 3: strong Stauns conservative. Yeah, there's corruption in his in his government,

275
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 3: just like everywhere else. You know, they built like, like

276
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 3: I don't know, like eighteen football stadiums or you know,

277
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 3: soccer stadiums in one year because it was like a

278
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 3: like a tax thing or something. But you know, people

279
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 3: like to look at the things that are bad. But

280
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 3: this is what I see when I go to Hungary

281
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 3: and we go every two weeks or every two months,

282
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: because we still got a place there. I'm going to

283
00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 3: go there. It's homogeneous, there's no crime, there's no immigrant

284
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 3: gangs on the streets that are running after people. Now

285
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 3: if I go to Berlin, a whole different story. I'm

286
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 3: going to Berlin, I'm like this the whole time. If

287
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 3: I had a wap in my hand, will be on

288
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 3: it all the time. That's Berlin, right, Or if you

289
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 3: go to Brussels, if you go to Holland, UK especially

290
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 3: right right right now, it's a bad place to be.

291
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 3: And the East is like the central Eastern Europe, Hungary

292
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:59,080
Speaker 3: and those guys and partially Slovakia, right it's fighting against

293
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 3: Poland half. You know, they got a globalist in their half.

294
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 3: Half global they're they're fighting it. And Maloney, I still look,

295
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,599
Speaker 3: the cards are still out on me for for the

296
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 3: Prime minister. Videaly. We're just in Italy two weeks ago

297
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 3: and did a video there and ended up on the

298
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 3: front page of the newspaper because we did it with

299
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 3: an activist down there. She's playing both sides, it seems

300
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 3: like to me. She's very strong talker, but she seems

301
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 3: to playing both sides. But in the end, this war

302
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 3: that will be fought will be fought if it's fought,

303
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 3: and let's pray that it doesn't. It will be fought

304
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 3: in the Balkans, the Slavic and the Baltic states because

305
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 3: they are what the EU leadership calls expendables, and it's

306
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 3: just a shame because they are. They haven't been what's

307
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 3: the word shoyanized. I don't know what the word is,

308
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 3: but they don't have the dei and all that.

309
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 1: Kind of.

310
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 3: Right. Yeah, yeah, so they they're still the men are

311
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 3: still men, and there's some hard ass my other truckers too.

312
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 3: I'll tell you. They don't take any ship from anybody,

313
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 3: and so they're they're standing strong.

314
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: You know.

315
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 3: I'm praying for them, and I'm doing video specifically for

316
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 3: them to show them that the support is behind them.

317
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: However much help that's going to give, I don't know,

318
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 3: but the only thing that I see that we can

319
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 3: do is keep calling this out and more and more German. Specifically,

320
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 3: it's important for Germany because a lot of people don't

321
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 3: understand it Germany. When Germany falls, the EU falls. Germany

322
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 3: is the anchor of the EU economically and as far

323
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 3: as the powerhouse goes also optically and psychologically. France isn't

324
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 3: as big as they as they think they are.

325
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 1: So they're in serious problems. Anyways.

326
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 2: I don't think I don't think Marcone is going to

327
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 2: be able to hold that government much longer at all.

328
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean they're right on the present. Okay.

329
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 2: So there was a great interview that I watched with

330
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 2: Scott Ritter, former military guy with Mario no Fall and

331
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 2: talks about the Russian territory as and there the tactics

332
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 2: of that JEORDI, could you pop up that map for me?

333
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: All right?

334
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 2: And when I look at this map, I see all

335
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 2: of the area that was in that vote. I think

336
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 2: it was the vote was in fifteen or sixteen after

337
00:15:56,440 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 2: the Mayden Revolution. Right off, battalion started attacking those regions

338
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 2: and then you know, I think Putin was just like,

339
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 2: all right, let's tell everybody what it is. This is

340
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: Russian speaking, this is our country. It's been our countries

341
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: and is you know his interview with Tucker since fifteen

342
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 2: twenty seven.

343
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: Or whatever he says.

344
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 2: And that's the way the Russians think about the world

345
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 2: and centuries, right. And when I look at that I

346
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,480
Speaker 2: see them fully entrenched. They have, what I've heard in

347
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 2: some regions five defensive lines already established up along that line.

348
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: And I don't ever see those lines retracting.

349
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: I haven't for the last year and a half.

350
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 2: There were a couple of forays into some of those

351
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: northern regions. They pushed back a little bit, but then

352
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 2: quickly were overrun afterwards, when you look at that map

353
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: based on not only your understanding of you know, I mean,

354
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: you were Bronze Star winner in combat, so you understand tactics,

355
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: you understand what do you see when you look at

356
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 2: that map as it is right today?

357
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 3: I think I think the number one most consistent strategy

358
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 3: that Putin's been done this whole world, the number one

359
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 3: of the most important thing he's done is restraint. He

360
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 3: could have rolled over them like nobody's business. But remember, well,

361
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 3: let me ask you this. In the red zone there,

362
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,919
Speaker 3: why is there no sort of resistance? Why is there

363
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,359
Speaker 3: no revolution? Why is there no Ukrainians doing you know,

364
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,479
Speaker 3: sort of attacks. Why is that because most of them

365
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 3: are Russian speaking. They want peace and they're okay with it,

366
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 3: right And like my wife, you know, she grew up

367
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 3: speaking Russian, she's Ukrainian, but she's you grew up speaking

368
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 3: Russi because she's Markoff and they speak Russian there, spoke

369
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 3: rushing there until they changed the law, and so you

370
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,159
Speaker 3: can't do anymore. Anybody who couldn't speak Russian or couldn't

371
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 3: speak Ukrainian lost her job. Zelensky didn't even speak Russian.

372
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 2: Right now, that's the funniest one story.

373
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 3: Speak Kreenian. And so you know, remember that those people

374
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 3: that are there, if they want to peace and they're

375
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,360
Speaker 3: okay with it. Otherwise there'd be out, you know, there'd

376
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 3: be bombings and there'll be attacks and all kinds of stuff,

377
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 3: and there's not. There's peace on the on the you know,

378
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 3: on the Eastern Front, if you will. And so when

379
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 3: I see that, I see Pootin and saying, look, I'm

380
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,280
Speaker 3: holding off here, I'm restraining myself. I could go further,

381
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 3: let's just end this and let's keep it right here.

382
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 3: But I'm not backing down. I'm keeping this border, like

383
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 3: I said I would, and the NATO, you're not coming closer.

384
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 3: If this is the border, then this is the border,

385
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 3: and that's the way. That's that's the way I see it.

386
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: I don't see Ukraine making any forward movement now if

387
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,280
Speaker 3: they bring tomahawks and there much. They haven't yet, And

388
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 3: as far as I know, the budget isn't there until

389
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 3: January February anyway, So we have a we have a

390
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 3: lull time between now and January. Everyone's going to freak

391
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 3: out in January. You watch, because they'll be the expenditures

392
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 3: are going to start exploding because the budgets are free, right,

393
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,640
Speaker 3: And I'll be like, oh, it's just normal spending. It's

394
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 3: normal spending in January. It happens every year here in January, March,

395
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 3: first quarter, It'll happen all the time. So just watch

396
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 3: out for those fake puffs. And then of course you

397
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 3: have so you have a trajectory. Now the people of

398
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 3: the world, especially Europe are getting sick of this, so

399
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 3: they're gonna starting to wake up. Then you have the

400
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 3: trajectory of the war coming, and the war's going to

401
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 3: come through false flag. Right. I know a guy in

402
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 3: the UK who's on one of the islands. I won't

403
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 3: mention it off the coast, and there's an old American

404
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 3: ship there just sort of like you know, set on

405
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 3: the sun on the rocks, and it's wired right now,

406
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 3: he said. And the trick is to say, oh, Russian

407
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 3: submarine blew it up, right. So they want to draw

408
00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 3: UK and they want to draw the European Union. And

409
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 3: obviously they can't take a submarine into the into Central Europe.

410
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 3: It's impossible. But you know, so they're trying to find

411
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 3: a way the false flag is to death. And so far,

412
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 3: thank goodness, there's been enough resistance where all of the

413
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,720
Speaker 3: false flag and there's been like four or five of them,

414
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,760
Speaker 3: they've been blown off like oh no, no, no, that's

415
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 3: not really. We know that's not real. And then they

416
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 3: just hit, you know, the two refineries in three insluckis.

417
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 3: So you know, it's it's they're trying everything they can

418
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 3: to stay look at you know, Russia's bad. Now, when

419
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 3: I'm talking this way, I get accused to being a

420
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 3: Russia Russia fobe all the time. I don't give a shit,

421
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 3: tell you truth. But here's here's the thing. If I'm

422
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 3: telling you something and it's in black and white next

423
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 3: to me, and I'm reading it to you, and it

424
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 3: just happens to be pro Russia or anti Europe or

425
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 3: the other way around. That doesn't mean that I'm taking size.

426
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 3: That just means this is what I see and this

427
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 3: is what I'm reporting, right. But to get that through

428
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 3: people's heads sometimes is really ridifud. I'm sure you've experienced yourself.

429
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 3: When you start talking about this stuff to get it

430
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 3: through people's heads, they don't even listen anymore. They shut down.

431
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 3: And that's one of the biggest problems we have is

432
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: no one listens anymore. They have a narrative that they believe.

433
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 3: They believe it with their life, and they have to

434
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: support feed and feed their bias and support it so

435
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 3: that they have something to believe in. And I just

436
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 3: on my platform, I just offer another way to look

437
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,240
Speaker 3: at things. That's what I try to do, and so

438
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 3: it's really important to me. Look my wife, and first

439
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 3: of all, people make a joke about it. If my

440
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 3: in law has lived with me, i'd want the word

441
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 3: to be over to you know that's not the case.

442
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 3: But yeah, it was funny when someone said that. But

443
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 3: they're suffering here, you know, we got them covered, you know,

444
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 3: we got them. We have a place in a car

445
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 3: and all that kind of stuff. But they have nothing.

446
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 3: They don't speak the language, and a job. They can't work.

447
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 3: They're both retired now and they have no way of

448
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 3: living their life. They want to go back, they want

449
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 3: to go home. They're even thinking about going home now

450
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 3: and I'm like, can't get nowhere to go? Yeah, but

451
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 3: we want to go home. They just want to go home. Wow,

452
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: that's the sentiment of most Ukrainians. And here's the worst

453
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 3: part of it all is in Ukraine, a lot of

454
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,719
Speaker 3: Ukrainians they just want peace, but they believe the narrative

455
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 3: because there's only that narrative that Russia is bad and

456
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 3: losing and we're going to take over and we're going

457
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 3: to win. That's the only narrative that's in the Ukraine

458
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 3: right now. You can't there's no foreign press getting in there.

459
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 3: So it's also caused a big rift in families because,

460
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 3: for instance, my wife has ants and stuff in Russia.

461
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,199
Speaker 3: Almost everyone in Ukraine has Russian relatives. At least in

462
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: the East, almost all of them are Russian relatives. That's

463
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 3: a lot of rift as well a lot of problems

464
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 3: with families that don't talk to each other anymore. It's

465
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,719
Speaker 3: a big mess. They want peace, They just want to

466
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 3: live again, and unfortunately the Ukraine that they knew will

467
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 3: never exist again.

468
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, for sure that those are harsh realities that

469
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 2: I think all these conflicts except are are are determining

470
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 2: in your mind if if obviously I I agree with you,

471
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 2: I think this is a full effort to try and

472
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: generate a hot war in this area, for sure, because

473
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 2: I think they believe that if if, if, if they

474
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 2: can somehow engage Russia UH and pull Russia away from

475
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 2: an alliance with with China, UH, that that that somehow

476
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 2: brings the hegemony back to the globalists that exists within

477
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 2: the European Union.

478
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 3: And everyone talks about, you know, all the rare minerals

479
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 3: and the oil and again all this kind of stuff,

480
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 3: but in the end, it's all about the powers. The

481
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 3: biggest powers in the world can never work together. Only

482
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 3: two at a time, that's right, right, you two at

483
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 3: a time. So and that's you know, the British Crown

484
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 3: drilled in the wedge between everybody all the.

485
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 1: Time, all the time, yep, And they push it on the.

486
00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 3: Blue and White guys you know from Israel. Oh it's

487
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 3: Israeli's this Israelis. They're always pushing on the Israelis when

488
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 3: in fact, one one step above them, you have the

489
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,119
Speaker 3: British Crown and the British crounded all the people involved

490
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 3: in that. And it's it's just it's it's terrible. It's

491
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,199
Speaker 3: it's it's absolutely horrible because every single day we have

492
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 3: no we have no recourse. All we can do is

493
00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,919
Speaker 3: talk about it right now, right and elect elections of

494
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 3: people running for election. You forget about it. We need

495
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 3: citizen leaders in every country. We need citizen leaders that

496
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 3: step up like they did in Iceland. I don't know

497
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:22,879
Speaker 3: if you if you know about that where they just

498
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,200
Speaker 3: walked in and said, you guys are done, we're taking over.

499
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 3: No one gets paid. You got to work your normal job,

500
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 3: run your company, and then you run the run the

501
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 3: you know, the government on the side. You know, it's

502
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 3: like totally you know, that's how I did it. So

503
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,919
Speaker 3: we need citizen leadership. The world needs citizen leadership. And

504
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 3: with Victor Obon in Hungary, yes, you know, some people

505
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 3: say is corrupt. I consulted their government when it when

506
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton and Susan Rice went there to try to

507
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 3: unseat him with oodles and noodles of money from the

508
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 3: Sorels Foundation, the Open found Open Society and WRBON just

509
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 3: kicked him out. He kicked out the Free University, that

510
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 3: sort of the European University, the Foundation, all of his

511
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:00,959
Speaker 3: NGO's kicked them all out, just like he kicked him

512
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,679
Speaker 3: on Santo out. He kicked them out of the get

513
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 3: out of the country. He a lot of people were

514
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 3: mad at him because what he did is he nationalized

515
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,120
Speaker 3: private insurance, private pensions like four roll one k's. Everybody

516
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 3: went up in arms. What he did with that money

517
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 3: is he paid off the IMF and kicked them out.

518
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 3: That's why he can do what he does. He's not

519
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 3: beholding right.

520
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 1: That seems very dangerous.

521
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 2: That seems to always be the key that these a

522
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 2: lot of these countries, they get into bed with the IMF,

523
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 2: They get these huge loans going for all infrastructure or

524
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 2: whether their their pension funds are tied to some international

525
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 2: asset management company, whatever it might be, right, they control,

526
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 2: you know, because they give up their proxy voting shares.

527
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 2: What my what I see though, is every time I

528
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,560
Speaker 2: see a man on the street interview with about young

529
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 2: people from these areas, and they ask, will you go

530
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:56,479
Speaker 2: fight in Ukraine? I don't ever see I don't see people,

531
00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 2: you know, the Irish saying yeah, I'm going, the English Chane, definitely,

532
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 2: the Germans, there's no way they're going, right, you know

533
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 2: after I mean, you know, and and then all those

534
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: other countries.

535
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 1: It's a joke.

536
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: So who does the European Union think they're gonna get

537
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 2: to fight this war?

538
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 3: You're looking at them. You were there there, right, you

539
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 3: were there.

540
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 2: I just wanted to hear you say it, but man,

541
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,119
Speaker 2: I just wanted you to say it.

542
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, and it's it's there there. You know. I

543
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 3: hope Trump shows restrained as well, because we cannot do this.

544
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 3: We cannot do this, We can't, you know. And here's

545
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 3: the thing is that without without soldiers, without people, there's

546
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 3: no emotional connection to war, There's no heroes, there's no

547
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 3: stories and stuff like that. So it'll be it'll be

548
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 3: sort of a technocratic war and it won't mean anything

549
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,719
Speaker 3: to anybody, which is almost worse because the no one

550
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 3: pays attention to it.

551
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right.

552
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 3: So it's it's it's such a crazy timer and not

553
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 3: only because of the war, but also because of the

554
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 3: changes that we're seeing with AI and all this kind

555
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 3: of stuff where we could almost fight a war and

556
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 3: with no people at all.

557
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:55,919
Speaker 1: It's close.

558
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 3: It's robots, AI, drones, all that stuff, you know. So

559
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 3: it's a it's a it's a scary place to be.

560
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 3: And right here, I mean in Turkey, we live on

561
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 3: the mad literally one hundred feet from here. As a

562
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 3: Mediterranean every day fighter jets you know, I love it,

563
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 3: but you know, this is a vacation place where people

564
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 3: come to the vacaved the fifth most visited city on the planet,

565
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 3: right and there's another's fighter jets flying over here, and

566
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,439
Speaker 3: there's no there's a specific reason for that.

567
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 1: So yeah, and it's changing, man, it's changing.

568
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:31,400
Speaker 3: And then Americas, bless our soul, we're still so far

569
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 3: away from all this that it's you know, we have

570
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 3: enough stuff going on home as ourselves that unfortunately it

571
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 3: goes you know, falls under the rug too often. And

572
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 3: it's just for me. It's almost like an like a dude.

573
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 3: I always felt like, I'm sure you did too. As

574
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 3: a military man. And then after I got out, I've

575
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 3: been away from the States for you know, on and

576
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:48,160

577
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 1: Wow.

00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 3: And I always feel like I'm an ambassador, so I
