President Putin violated the Minsk Accords??? That’s new news to me... This guy is out in ORBIT. Even Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande admitted the Minsk Accords WAS A LIE. Scott DESTROYED Colonel Fisher with FACTS, not feelings.
Russia had no stated obligations under Minsk except to maintain borders on its side, once Ukraine had mets its obligations. Therefore pretty much impossible for them to violate a Treaty they were not a party to except as observers and facilitators.
I’d say you took old Jeffrey apart in this debate. Poor guy. But I remember when you were trying to wake America up to the lack of justification for invading Iraq. You took those touts apart too. But only got smeared for it. I don’t think they’ll listen any better now. These maniacs want war and they will trot out the most ridiculous people (Colon Powell) and ridiculous evidence to get their wars. And when that doesn’t work, they’ll send in Piggy Vicky, and her Zionist cookies. 😱. Pray for Niger.
Yes. And BRICS and Venezuela, and all of Latin America…..in fact pray for 90% of the world. We truly are the Great Satan. And it pains my very soul to both say and know that. I once just loved this country.
I agree. The only thing I struggle with tho, is that we ARE the government. I don’t subscribe to the notion that this corruption just landed on us poor innocent victim citizens. We allowed it! We even liked it. Approved of it. Killary and the Clinton’s were popular! And going back, so was killing and stealing from the Indians, and enslaving blacks, and oppressing Asians. We’ve always been a colonizing, settler nation and now we’re reaping the whirlwind, as my gramma used to say. We need a big re-think!
Fischer did not enter into this in the same spirit Scott did - he attacks Scott right from the get go, and multiple times - Scott on the other hand dealt almost exclusively with the content (and context), and did not resort to trying to put Fischer down -just disagreed with him.
Let us not get too stuck in details here, and let us remember one very pertinent fact - it is NOT Russia who surrounds most of the World's nations with Military bases and insane American exceptionalism - Russia does not have over 1000 bases world-wide, Russia has not historically gone after every nation, one after the other, spouting words of peace, and delivering theft and murder, all with a very publically stated intent of 'Democratising' the World, or acting as if they are God's chosen nation (in contradiction of the scriptures I may add).
Sorry Fischer, but until you learn to debate without stooping to the same tactics your nation uses to try and build it's global empire, Scott remains as unblemished as his arguments, which were delivered well, and without prejudice towards you.
When Fischer began, I'm sorry and may not be relevant, but phrase 'baffle with BS', came to mind but better When I thought of the Gish Gallop,famous creationist, who is at this point, a graven literally but more a reversal i.e,. grave in, reversal,and actually
Interesting. My observation is that the US was exiting treaties which Russia then also exited in response. I noted that the US was typically making claims about Russian non-compliance without providing any proof beyond making the claim and ignoring the USs own non-compliance.
In similar sense they treated the "nuclear disarming", "spreading democracy", etc. It is all backwards and designed to profit the most corrupt. The soldiers only see a bit of it. Like when they are ordered to guard a poppy-field or to drone-bomb a wedding.
Fischer either lied or was badly uninformed about New Start. The Russians did not "withdraw" from it. On 21 February 2023, Russia suspended its participation in New START. However, it did not withdraw from the treaty, and clarified that it would continue to abide by the numerical limits in the treaty.
indeed, iirc inspections of nuclear sites were suspended, because americans were playing games with russian inspectors acquiring visa and there was the question about american inspectors providing intelligence to ukrainians who at least once tried to dronebomb a military facility where strategic bombers were stationed. i think mr fischer is entirely aware of the big picture (he was not on a peace-keeping mission during his time in the osce, imo, quite the opposite).
After reading this piece I felt an immediate sadness for Col Fischer. Somewhere in the past this man was a well intentioned patriot but over the years his critical thinking has been worn down living in a NatSec bubble now he sounds like every other policy robot.
And I am sure millions will be willing to sew them on our hats or jackets and ware them proudly it's looking alot like the 60 all over again...remember the peace sign...
I will always remember the anti-war of 'Nam protests. I have a left jaw click, from moving in front of an anticipated right cross aimed at my fellow protestor I'll never forget. He was a target, because he was black and ya just can't miss some clues, I heard the n word yelled out and tried to protect him and avert it, which I did do, Success ya might say, some days feels like a pyrrhic victory, but coulda been worse.
Really like this Logo "Waging Peace " just a suggestion Scott have sew on patches for jackets hat size made and bumper stickers ect ect...and the I'll definitely were one with pride...and the money to produce them of course add on cost to allow you keep spreading the "real news"!.... like old late Paul Harvey use to say "now for the rest of the story " "Thank you for continuing your efforts to get us to the Peace table before this spins out of control...

Russia has never failed to maintain its border since the USSR collapsed and the US dropped NATO's leash.

... and for Haiti, Serbia, Kazakhstan...

I love my country. I detest its thoroughly corrupt government.

The federalists adopted the failing British Empire.
We haven't been the government since we fell for Lincoln's treasonous sell out to the City of London (not the city called London).
Not an idea I credit.

Ritter = 1, Fischer = 0

Maybe a good reminder that the Pentagon lost track of 21 Trillion dollars. And they "solved" it by allowing the changing of the numbers. And this is only the tip of the corruption. Not one dollar should be missing. Here is an interview about the research -> https://www.corbettreport.com/interview-1407-mark-skidmore-on-the-pentagons-missing-trillions/

Thank you for posting this video.

I knew you were right by the time I read the header but it's valuable to have the succinct argument available. Thanks.

You win in my book, Scott.
Thank you !!

Scott get them patches going on the production line I'll purchase some for the peace cause...
Someone should tell retired US Air Force Colonel Jeffrey Fischer to retire from ad hominem attacks.
His ad-hominem attacks in the rebuttal expose his lack of confidence, and inabilities in discourse.
What a good way to discuss certain topics, but with a military guy?? They all have blinders on, they have too, otherwise they could not serve.
Scott is a military guy too. So was the late Gen. William E. Odom, who was quite the crusty old observer, quick to call out "chicken hawks."
