Episode notes

What would happen if we just open up trade with cuba, north korea. And maybe in the long run, that would make them more westernezed and peaceful. But it seems to me that what we should be doing is forgetting the new gassu. If i put back burner, it may be 20 or 30 or 50 or a hundred years from now revisited. Then concentrate on trying to make northcary into a normal nation,. at least as much as sav et nomis.

In this conversation with the renowned Ohio State University political scientist John Mueller, author of The Stupidity of War, Retreat from Doomsday: The Obsolescence of Major War, and The Remnants of War, we discuss the ongoing crisis in Ukraine and what we might expect from Putin’s Russia in the coming weeks, months, and years, along with Dr. Mueller’s outline for how to end the current conflict and compromise with Putin. That seems unlikely at this point, but the prospects of the tragedy of millions of war refugees pouring out of Ukraine into neighboring nations, along with the number killed already and likely to be killed as the fighting escalates, why not give negotiation and compromise a chance? Read John Mueller’s op-ed that accompanies this episode.
