But
Speaker 1
there's no way to describe design a state because it's such an anachronism and nobody thinks that way anymore. So there's nothing to appeal to. There's not the reference points to make it cognizable. So it's done. It's it's dead. It's a zombie. Unfortunately, as it dies, it's hurting a lot of innocent people and our allies in places like Palestine and Syria, but that'll end soon. And the future looks bright for humanity because there won't be in Israel anymore. Well,
Speaker 4
putting our initial topic aside, would you care to speak about what's going on in Syria right now in the greater context? You and Pete have a great series on Syria-Russia relations. And Aleppo, go ahead. I was going to say Aleppo was, go ahead.
Speaker 1
No, it's part of the same front as the Ukraine war. And the reason why the Ukraine war was launched, I mean, the mass escalation whereby this kind of irrational kind of like suicide attack on the Donbass and this provocation of, you know, tailored to draw the Russian Federation into, like, open conflict on the frontier. That is 100% Israel and America's returning to serve for the loss they took in Syria at the hands of the Russian Federation, the Syrian Arab Army, Hezbollah, and Iran. You know, because Syria's Begoin Heights is a critical fear. Operational fear. It's a critical staging point for indirect fire and all kinds of other things. Okay? And also, Syria's actually a developed advanced country. It's not idiot Americans. Imagine it's a bunch of toe heads. It's like, no, it's actually full of cultured people and it's as modern as anywhere else um you know and it's a secular it's a secular regime that has proven remarkably durable that's the reason why bush 41 and baker cultivated it um you know and uh they're so what America is doing now, Assad and the Syrian Arab Army and Hezbollah and the Russian Federation, they fought off the effort to destroy the Syrian state, you know, by Israel and America and these Salafi proxies that they were exploiting like ISIS. now um aragon who's a third rate uh you know nobody in a in a in a goon and a bully you know like uh tel aviv and washington you know undoubtedly bribed him you know to to to back up these uh these is you know, who are America and Israel's favorite proxies. And then when Erdogan realized, like, the Turks are a real fight, and, like, the Russians and the Syrian Arab army were going to actually resist, you know, like, suddenly he pumped out, and now he's trying to de-escalate. It's a pathetic gesture, like, and it's just trying to burn, it's just trying to rag up a body count as the Ukraine disaster is coming to a natural conclusion. But they're fronts of the same conflict. They're not two different conflicts. They're the same conflict. And people don't understand that, don't understand what's happening today in the world. Russia and Israel are always at war. They're always ops. Israel views Russia as their number one
Speaker 4
enemy and they are. All right. So question for the panel. You mentioned Ukraine and how it's another front in the same conflict. I'm pretty convinced that the Ukraine war is going to end, or at least our support for it's going to end. It's going to change in a major way when Trump comes in. I think everybody in the Biden administration feels that way, too, which is why they gave Ukraine missiles and Ukraine fired them. But it was a pretty weak gesture. So do you guys agree with that, that Trump coming in is going to somehow alter, if not end the war in Ukraine, or at least our support for it? It's
Speaker 1
naturally ending anyway, but yeah. Yeah, they can't hemorrhage
Speaker 3
this many people, this many men anymore. I think that even Zelensky has gotten to the point where he knows that that can't happen anymore, that this can't go on anymore. So, yeah, I think Trump will end it or Trump will be the force that ends it, but it's dying already. I mean, it's, there's no reason it should, there's no reason it should have went on after April 2022. But, you know, our state department. What's also, it's, I mean, it's devoid of strategic logic.
Speaker 1
Like, the whole point of it was just to, like, rack up a body count. You know, the whole point of it was, like, hurt the Ivans with attrition. This idea that... The only possible way for some kind of NC condition to ensue, the Ukrainian Armed Forces, they'd have to ethnically cleanse the Donbass. Then they'd have to defeat the armed forces of the Russian Federation. Then they'd have to chase the remainder of the armed forces of the Russian Federation into Russia, utilizing nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons on the way, if necessary. Then they'd have to annihilate what remained of the armedist of the Russian Federation and prevent them from reconstituting. Then they'd have to be able to pressure and threaten Moscow to some kind of draconian peace whereby Moscow would abdicate any claim to the Donbass and would be precluded from deploying within probably like 50 kilometers of the frontier. There is no chance of that happening. It's like preposterous that that could ever happen. So considering that, from jump, the Ukraine war has been this like little Zionist rat man, like throwing, hurling the population of Ukraine at Russia to like splatter on the proverbial wall and like try to rack up Russian casualties. Like meanwhile, there's like this like legacy media apparatus declaring that like, you know, Ukraine's launching an offensive. Like it's, I've never seen it. It's bizarre. And it's, it's incredible that the Ukrainians want to like commit suicide for, but apparently they like it. Slaves are going to slave. So, well,
Speaker 4
first of all, I had a hunch the day I read that Aleppo was invaded by terrorists again, that This was just an attempt to overstretch Russia and put pressure on them and maybe distract them from the Ukrainian front. But what position does this put Russia in globally once Syria gets restabilized and the Ukrainian war ends? Are they going to be in a stronger position than they were before all this, or is it going to go back to the way it was
Speaker 1
before? I mean, Russia was in a strong position they were in the strongest position they'd been in since 1989 as they defeated these terrorist proxies the united states and israel and syria because they proved that in limited capacities at least in key theaters they can project power and they can win and they can operationally integrate with their allies in a way that's you know a force multiplier um that uh is capable of tipping the balance you know like like america is a joke you know you tell me like like the russians can take thousands of casualties continue to remain operational effectiveness in key theaters, morale doesn't collapse, and they can deploy to the Near East at relative scale, integrate with Hezbollah and the Syrian Arab Army, engage Salafis on the ground, win, and basically challenge the IDF and U.S. Special Operations Element to come get us. You know, and the U.S. Army is not going to start taking, like, thousands of casualties, like, fighting the Air Force, the Russian Federation. They can't even handle, like, 20 KIA a week in Iraq. You know, like, so it's a joke. Like, this, like, hard talk out of the Pentagon is a fucking joke. So Russia is in a very good standing. plus america is uh america is a sponsor of islamic terrorism and unconditional ally of israel like america is universally hated man you know like we're fighting the war on terrorists we're gonna try and kill people who fight islamic terrorists people's like america lost all credibility in 2011 man like that's when it was over because they they started they started like supporting al-qaeda against um a secular government in syria um led by like a white eye doctor educated in london like that's when america was done on the power political stage you know you also have
Speaker 3
a world leader who unlike ours uh work we don't really have a leader but what we have is we have rabid basically politicians who at the when a bullet is fired anywhere near one of their soldiers one of one of their soldiers they want to they're calling for war they're calling i mean putin the greatest strength of putin is his patience i mean i don't have the kind of patience he does i don't i would have invaded i would have went into ukraine in 2015 but he waited and he tried he tried everything he could to avoid this. And every provocation, he's sat back, cool, consulted with Sergey Lavrov and his people. he has not acted like the animal that our animals could accuse him of being i mean lindsey graham this incredible faggot talks a tough game and just wants to be you know wants to appear. I mean, he's like butching out all over the place. But you really, you can understand why people ask, okay, who owns
Speaker 1
him? When you hear the rhetoric. And then he'll- It's also, it's just not credible. It's like America, you know, like Russia produces it. I mean, nobody has to like the russians but you know russia produces like actual statesmen like america's got yeah it's got like some bizarre it's got some bizarre guy with a girl's name who like runs around shrieking that he wants to kill people because he's like pretending to be jewish or there's a hysterical, there's these histrionic people in the State Department who go around like shrieking at other countries. You know, you can't consider yourself a serious country, let alone a hegemon, if that's your strategy. We go around shrieking at people when we not when we're not um you know when when we're not misping about how we want we want to kill everybody who who is an enemy of greater judeo like nobody takes that seriously because it's it's it's vulgar and insane and bizarre you know like it's the equivalent of like some like shitty hobo like yelling at you on the subway like how do you even respond to that you know so i mean so the russians ignore it because i you know you there's there's not anything being conveyed there you know it's just um and uh you know that's why i mean the french are getting kicked out of africa as we speak you know this stuff is the consequence of this are sitting in you know um and thank god for that so yeah that's where we're at it's just i mean i i um it saddens me that you know again like our allies in places like syria and palestine are, you know, NSC, like, belongs to them, ultimately. So that's the thing to keep in mind.
