There is no right to anything. Nature only knows might makes right. The US considers it vital to take out Russia as a global competitor. That is all the reason they need. They word it in terms like the rights of the Ukrainians to defend themselves or self determination, but we all know that in Latin America no country has the right to leave the American sphere of influence either. It's about a global hegemon trying to maintain its position by DELETING a rival.

[@freeforester1717]

It’s all about oil, minerals and resources - the US want them, but Russia wants to utilise their resources for their own benefit, not those of US interests. US has betrayed Europe, bullied and blackmailed other ‘allies’ into falling into line behind their doctrine. The BRICS+ meeting in Kazan should be interesting, as US interests are now firmly and clearly understood by the global South, who wish to have little to nothing to do with them. Watch the dollar topple, it’s only a matter of when, not ‘if’.

yes indeed, its super painful observing the world and nima and the judg's channel reduce that misery with honest and leading edge analysis. dmitry orlov is great, col. larry wilkerson, scotty boy.

[@nikola_todor_atanasov]

@@siddfinch6296 absolutely! All the guests. Orlov, Martyanov, Wilkerson, Freeman, Baud, Ritter, Johnson, McGovern, Petro, Wolff, Hudson, Finkelstein! All of them are on other shows as well (like the Judge) but I feel with Nima they give the best interviews. The Judge for example is fine if someone really hasn’t heard much about the issues. He keeps asking the same basic questions though and I know he does it so new people can catch up and can’t just pick up where many of us have been listening these kinds of interviews for years but Nima does these tks assuming we are all already well informed and up to date. I like that. I don’t need the judge to ask Ritter again ‘when do you think the war will be over?’, you know what I mean? Anyway, Nima, Napoletano, Andrei, Duran, Garland, Galloway, Berletic…these are all great. Nima is my favorite at the moment as I’ve been following most of them for years. Berletic when he was even publishing under a pseudonym! Duran when they were talking about other things than ukraine. Galloway somce he was anti Iraq war and so on. We’re lucky there ARE this many and I hope they all keep it up for as long as needed because the MSM is still brainwashing too many.

@@nikola_todor_atanasov i agree fully but the duran let robert barnes spew vile bs about gaza without pushback and their video title descriptions are almost devoid of mentioning the middle east, compromised people imho. george galloway as great as he is (i followed him on the radio for over 10years) was appalling in his fight against scottish independence from london.

[@nikola_todor_atanasov]

@@siddfinch6296 you’re right. Plus, every time Alexander says how he believes America is actuygood and should and could be saved and he wouldn’t want anything bad to happen there I just sigh and go ‘i guess we’re all products of our times and circumstances…’ It’s like even after so much coverage he’s done he can’t see who the biggest culprit is for literally a century almost?! Yeah, I can’t stand Robert Barns and I can’t stand that colonel Davis, just like Tony Schaffer or (Jesus Christ!) Jack Devine on the judge channel. Galloway in Scotland…different time and I’m sure he’s changed his mind now but yeah man, I get it and agree with you. Isn’t it great that these channels have created a space where people like us can talk without the usual nonsense interrupting and causing arguments? That’s another thing I like about all the shows I mentioned. The community they’ve created. But yes, the Duran I’ve slowly been less interested in because I can smell the pro-western bias and even though I understand it, I don’t like it. Although the Mercouris daily episodes (just himself) are a personal news addiction at this point and I never miss them and he is better on his own. As a matter of so is Cristoforou.

[@nikola_todor_atanasov]

@@siddfinch6296 sorry for all the typos. Also, am I the only one that listens to all of these with the speed set on 2x? There just isn’t enough time to hear them all and now since it’s been years, i find people slow and boring if they can’t tell me everything about someth in 15-30 minutes! 😅 like sometimes I’ll see a clip of these shows on instagram videos where I can’t make it go fast and i’m losing my mind like ‘thiiiia is how slow they talk?! Wtf?!’ And also, danny haiphong is a good channel but mostly because he leaves the guests to talk longer without interrupting. His questions don’t really keep the interview going and they’re not even that good. Nice guy, good channel, good guests but not the best host. Leagues behind Nima!

Nima, this interview is a KZbin classic! Prof. Hudson has the unique ability to view the economy from a truly macroeconomic level. He fully accounts for geopolitical motivation. I agree completely with Prof. Hudson's explanation linking the current genocide in Gaza to a US show-of-force and intimidation. The misery inflicted on the Palestinians is an example of what XYZ nation could face if it resists US imperialism. It is what the US did to Japan in 1945 dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Moreover, the US continues to colonize the EU, a project it has been pursuing for nearly 100 years. Within the past two years the US has deindustrialized Germany by creating a dependency for expensive US controlled natural gas imports resulting from the Nordstream pipeline destruction.

If they did, the misguided and misinformed policies that have been snd continue to be implemented by the U.S. and its client states in Europe, would have been altered for more practical and common sense policies long ago. The U.S. and Europe only know how to double down on policy initiatives that have yet to benefit them, either short term or long term. Utterly amazing that they could be so foolish as to continue promoting things that haven’t yielded anything positive for them yet!

when ....you are with us or against us........... backfires ,,and you are left looking around at empty space

[@webertherese9115]

As a Swiss, I am very disappointed by the behaviour of our government, abandoning neutrality and organising the peace conference without the Russians. I very much hope that the Russians will end the war on the battlefield before this conference, which should take place in mid-June.

Another great post. 👏👏👍👍

Like the Roman Empire in its dying days it hit out anywhere despite the fact it knew it was dying. NATO is in this state as we speak. Micheal Hudson explains this very well. Thanks to Nima for having these knowledgeable guests. 👏👏👍👍

Hudson: " the Americans have said they want to take Ukraine to dump atomic waste and chemical waste ... there goes our Ukranian [agricultural] land ..." Of a part with using DU armed warheads in the conflict.

Ukraine is not losing !!! AMERICA IS LOSING !!!

[@metugeekane8454]

Well, Iraq, Libya, and Afghanistan will also sue the US for reparations. We are not in 1945 anymore.

Excellent discussion as always. However at 27", Prof. Hudson generalises about Christian versus Asian civilisation. But Russia now combines Orthodox Christianity with the industrial legacy of the USSR. "This star shall rise in the East" (Dostoevsky). That Russia is Christian is immensely important. The question is really whether the West is in any meaningful sense Christian.

Professor Hudson.... Great insights..❤..

[@funtictoc1660]

One of the most interesting talks I've heard and that's including all other opposition (lets call it that) to USA warmongering. Very interesting points.

Today pro AFU propoganda "DeepState" acknowledged a number of our advances in Ocheretyne, Novobakhmutivka, Novokalynove, Berdychi, Semenivka and Heorhiivka. They fully acknowledged their loss of Novobakmutivka.

[@pindapoy1596]

@namur-iq6ih All those town are under siege by the Russians. Where do you get "OUR" advances???

[@theresaadams7143]

​@@pindapoy1596 This is obviously a pro Russia post. 🇷🇺

[@pindapoy1596]

@@theresaadams7143 Is my post pro Russian or is @namur-iq6ih a pro Russian post??? Is Professor Hudson in the above video pro Russian? What do you really mean? It seems that truth is pro Russian.

US economy is based on individual greed. At 14 I realized debt was the ball and chain. Except for a house and car or a roof I never bought anything I could not pay for in a month.
