Great article- says exactly what Putin was telling Tucker in their recent interview. I’m just afraid too many Americans don’t have the attention span or won’t exercise the discipline to read and educate themselves about Russia, their interests and our lies. The corruption in our leadership is staggering. RFK jr. - you are sorely needed.

I don’t always agree with Sachs, but he is spot on here. How did the Democrats become the party of Big Pharma, Big Tech, and the Military Industrial Complex? And why do its supporters still fancy themselves as “the resistance”?

I wondered that 24 years ago. “Where have all the Liberals gone?” The Deep State is both Political parties. The 3 you mentioned above control both parties because they fund most of the candidates for both parties. Our State Department hasn’t changed since WWII. War Party “A” & War Party “B”.

It began with Bill Clinton and NAFTA and has accelerated ever since.

Palestine is worse. Defenseless Palestinian, mostly Women and Children are being Horrendously Genocided by US Weapons and Kennedy says nothing against it and actually energetically supports it. If the bombs, missile and money supply gets shut-off to the Psychotic Netanyahu Regime Palestinians stop getting Genocided. Did you miss this point?

But this military aid is A-ok in RFK's books?

Great article and on target!

However the same logic applies to giving Israel Billions more and is not mentioned, though Sachs has been honest about the Palestine Genocide in other places.

Completely different situation.

I disagree that American bombs killing white people is different to American bombs killing brown people.

“Completely different situation” is a conclusion. Not everyone can understand your reasoning to reach that conclusion. So can you explain your point.

NOPE....all war is for power/profit/territory/resources. There is especially NO excuse/explanation for killing 30,000 people

I am wanting to understand why the U.S. bombing of the Nordstream Pupelines was omitted from any mention in your article. It seems a major omission so I wondered the reason for that.

"In February 2022, Putin launched the Special Military Operation (SMO) invasion to push Ukraine to the negotiating table." So clever Putin thought torching the entire country would get Ukraine engaged in a 'negotiation'? Really? Putin's singularly destructive actions foreclosed any meaningful negotiation: "On 24 February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine in an escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War that started in 2014. The invasion became the largest attack on a European country since World War II. It is estimated to have caused tens of thousands of Ukrainian civilian casualties and hundreds of thousands of military casualties. By June 2022, Russian troops occupied about 20% of Ukrainian territory. About 8 million Ukrainians had been internally displaced and more than 8.2 million had fled the country by April 2023, creating Europe's largest refugee crisis since World War II. Extensive environmental damage caused by the war, widely described as an ecocide, contributed to food crises worldwide." (Wikipedia)

You're one of those people who sees a tree and not the forest. Bias is convenient, but its killing others. Please educate yourself as many of us bothered to do, despite the global negative connotation of us as arrogant Westerners.
