COMMENT: Marty, your report “Is It Time to Nuke Kiev?” really brings things into focus. The U.S. ended World War II by using nuclear weapons on Hiroshima, and Russia might be driven down a similar path—largely because of this current idiot in charge. I’m genuinely stunned that he’s attempting to interfere in Russian elections. What a reckless move.

ANSWER: He is a puppet. The Neocons always think of just taking some action that is in front of their nose without ever thinking through what comes next. Zelensky’s attacks are more likely to ensure that the Hawks gain the majority, and they want Putin to get serious. They have also forced a change in the definition from a “special operation” to “war with Ukraine.” The Neocons think they are righteous and everyone else is evil or inferior. They seem to believe their own propaganda. I have actually heard that if they overthrow Putin, the people will rise up and cheer. They said the same about Iraq and Iran not to mention Vietnam and Afghanistan. The last I checked, I do not recall the people cheering them or giving them their mythical tickertape parade.
While everyone is paying attention to Iran, this is far more serious.
