I have to say, i've been listening to Darryl's podcasts since the very beginning. I haven't agreed with his take on Twitter with American culpability and Putin's innocence at all during the last 3 weeks.

I have to say, i've been listening to Darryl's podcasts since the very beginning. I haven't agreed with his take on Twitter with American culpability and Putin's innocence at all during the last 3 weeks. This response out-does everything i was dreaming up in my head of writing when i could finally do it here instead of on social media. Yes, American government, intelligence and military (almost exclusively officers) is full of traitors to American values. But as much as we have fucked up the world, the last 3 weeks has proved that the world needs a policeman, and America is the best hegemon the world has ever had. At the same time, the clowns at the CIA couldn't have pulled off any of these color revolutions without legitimate, organic support. One thing I learned in Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan is that no territory can be held without the legitimate support of the majority of the people. That statement contains some harsh truths, like how France had to be full of Nazi sympathizers to be taken over in 3 weeks by Hitler's horde. But it is true. and Ukraine is proving the opposite. Russia will never take and hold Ukraine. Putin's own actions have made a nation out of a people. To pretend that there is any nobility in his goals is betrayed by the fact that his $800M personal yacht (bought with stolen wealth from an impoverished people) was moved from Germany to Kaliningrad a couple of days before the invasion.
