Where did she advocate for this and how do you know this?

I don't have a source but I'm pretty sure she was quite open about it, in interviews and such. Just like how now the US is open about wanting regime change in Iran.

Putin has a video tape of Gadaffi's death and he replays it to himself every so often to remind himself of what American's wanna do to him.

This is not a game for Putin. His life is on the line every day. If he slips up he knows Americans will coup him. American politicians can afford to screw around, Putin cannot.

This is a under appreciated factor in what influences the psychology behind US foreign policy and by extension what influences Israel. The geopolitical insulation of the US gives it the unique position to be violent and commit violence across the world - and suffer little consequence for it, at least in the short-medium term.

This attitude and sense of superiority rubs off on and only amplifies any existing sense of trauma induced entitlement Israel has, which becomes a moral hazard to them. The combination of impunity, arrogance and being hypersensitive (due to historic trauma) to threats that are amplified is what we're seeing. 

Neocons don't appreciate the gravity of violence, which means they can't appreciate the value of peace. Watch the following from 3:50sec - Wesley Clark talking about the neocons desire to destabilise and dominate the Middle East.

The Clean Break report, a policy document prepared in 1996 by a study group led by Richard Perle and Benjamin Netanyahu is quite a eye opener to everything we have seen transpire and are seeing today. Richard Perle served in the Bush administration and is now notoriously known to have architected the Iraq war. This is why Israel and the US work in unison, using each other for plausible deniability and to achieve their outcomes of domination.

The same attitude but in different latitudes that drives this whole shit show is that of domination.

Of course I know that about the Americans.

But then again, it's not like Putin appreciates peace. He had no qualms sending 300,000 Russian boys to the slaughter.

According to Sachs Russia has pursued peace and cooperation with the West despite the West continuously crossing its lines. The act of invading Ukraine was the moral quagmire I had mentioned on the other thread - that I sympathised more with Russia than with Israel though they both visibly have transgressed.

But then when looked at with context, it seems Russia goes to war more out of necessity (due to provocation from the West as you've rightly pointed out) whilst the West goes to war just looking for the next one to perpetuate their hegemony and war economy.

''Provocations work in the shadows, manipulating circumstances without crossing overt lines. They give those that do the provoking plausible deniability while creating conditions that almost guarantee an eventual reaction from the cornered party that they can then paint as the villain.''

I won't derail the thread further with the topic.

Thing is, the conflict in Ukraine has been going on since before Hillary said anything. The article correctly points out the protests against Putin as the decidable shift in his politics - from economic to fearmongering and imperialism. Russia has been sponsoring Donbas insurrectionists since 2012-2013 and later engaged in all out war (Donbas War 2014):

https://www.vox.com/2014/9/3/18088560/ukraine-everything-you-need-to-know
 

The truth is, Russians view Ukraine as a “rightful part” of their land. This is what Putin was blabbering to Tucker Carlson about “Kievska Rus”. The “Russia vs. NATO” is just part of the mythology, aligning Russia as part of the new “multipolar” thesis of geopolitics along the likes of China, Iran and North Korea. 

This is another example of his stated aim back in 2011 - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/05/we-knew-putin-would-attack-ukraine-back-in-2011-says-bill-clinton

Israel's Actions Justified & You are all wrong. Logic stands with Israel, according to this guy.

Thank you, that’s actually a stage tier 2 thinking. Very smart and very well placed. Thank you for sharing such deep thinking video.

I see comments and still people react negatively, at this point it’s just a personal bias against Israel and nothing else. They will only be happy once Israel will be gone. But thanks God we are her to stay and unfortunately for everyone else, they would have to make more of those threads and wine and complain and etc. 

For all of you who claim to be awakened, switch to more profound topics and connecting with a divinity, this political bias nonsense wil only drag you down to very primitive development and will not let your mind expand.

Very shallow.

No understanding of ethnic cleansing, no understanding of terrorism, no understanding of Zionist settlement expansion, no understanding of military industrial complex, no understanding of self-bias, no understanding of war crimes and international law, no understanding of propaganda, no historical context, no understanding of ongoing Zionist oppression, no understanding of Zionist genocidal rhetoric, no understanding of failed peace agreements, no understanding of the Irsaeli far-right and Netanyahu, no understanding of Israel lobby and manipulation of the West, zero responsibility for creation of terrorism, false analogy to Mexico, no understanding of 9/11, no understanding of how IDF counts casualty numbers, no mention of occupation, no mention of the status of a Palestinian state.

And yet, everything he said is also true. Which makes it especially toxic.

This is amazingly insightful, but shows how hopeless the situation is. At the end of the day neither side will accept a two state solution and this is a war between two people who believe the land is theirs.

That's very hard to say. Maybe. But also maybe Putin was cornered into it because he does feel threatened by Western influence. Hillary's policy was basically regime change against Putin. Of course he would be paranoid of Western neoliberal influence at his border.

There is some truth to this but Putin has taken this belief to an Alex Jones level. He believes that the whole arab spring was puppeteered by the US deep-state, the same thing with the Maidan revolution in Ukraine. The absolute crackpots that originated this conspiracy should give you a clue to their validity: William Engdahl, who was an employee and a disciple of Lyndon Larouche. I can't empisis enough that Putin and his actions can't be understood without understanding this conspiracy. This video explains it:
https://youtu.be/7OFyn_KSy80?si=eVZJYrYp22D0QYJA
It's long and dense but worth it. 

The Obama administration broke from the Bush doctrine vis-a-vis Russia in that Bush sought to expand NATO while Obama did the appeasement that the likes of Maersheimer recommended. 

In the article you sent it says:

Quote

She set the tone for certain actors inside the country; she gave the signal,” Putin said of Clinton at the time, accusing her of ordering the opposition movement into action like some kind of revolutionary sleeper cell. “They heard this signal and, with the support of the U.S. State Department, started actively doing their work.

Look at this with skeptical eyes. Does Hillary Clinton control the oligarchs? Russian media is heavily controlled by the regime so how would the US "deep state" control it and the population? Such an influence campaign would have left big footmarks, but there are none, just a ghost that leaves no trace and controls everything that is against Putin. It's paranoid schitzo shit.

I think you guys are dismissimg the video in an overly broad manner. He has some valid points:

1. Some of the most significant countries in the world have been created in similarly problematic ways, and almost every country has required some degree of forceful conquest for its establishment.

2. hamas does not respond to 1967 occupation but almost entirely to the very existence of Israel. What strenghtens this assumption is the fact that each time the negotiations between Israel and Palestine have approached a breakthrough, there has been a significant increase in terror activities inside Israel. They don't want an agreement based on 1967 lines. You can verify it yourself.

3. The ratio between civilians and combatants he mentioned is right, and it is still far lower than the ratio in any other war of western militaries against guerilla.

No it isn’t. It’s based on the IDF’s claimed number of hamas killed which is nonsense, if hamas actually lost that many they couldn’t still be active, and IDF already leaked to the media they count anyone killed in kill zones as hamas which means they are surely counting civilians.

Analysis looking at the confirmed deaths compared to the civilian to combatant ratios in past Gaza wars indicate Israel is killing at least 3 civilians per 1 combatant, which is a horrible ratio, the US killed 2.5 combatants to 1 civilian in Afghanistan.

Its also probably much worse as it doesn’t count thousands of unconfirmed deaths that are just listed as missing.

What's also missed is not just lives lost, but the destruction of infrastructure. Gaza has been made unlivable. It's a genocidal level of civil infrastructure destruction. And it was done deliberately.

Greens are still delusional about what they hope they can accomplish on this issue. There will be no two-state solution and no justice here. And Palestinian people are still too underdeveloped to form a functional non-genocidal government.

How do you know this? The only chance they had to vote it was between Hamas and a corrupt PLO, and exit polls show even the Hamas voters mostly did it as a counter to the PLO and supported the two states solution at the time.

Yes, but at this point I figure we will have 20 years of radical terrorists attacking Israel from every corner of the Arab population. So I don't know about hopes for cooperation.

The situation is very, very bad.

Most major Arab states have offered normalization with Israel if Palestinians get a state, even Iran at one point signed on to the Arab peace initiative.

Look at the chaos of their situation. Liberal democracy cannot exist in such conditions. The only thing that can exist there is isane corruption and authoritarian rule.

If Palestinians get a state

Iareali leadership will never agree to a Palestinian state. They never have. They say so themselves.

They don’t need to have liberal democracy, the situation would be a lot better even if they were still authoritarian like Jordan, they just need human rights and functioning schools, hospitals, jobs etc.

The US is the only one really stopping it from being forcefully imposed. 
Or they could have a one state solution and integrate Palestinians in as Israeli citizens.

They ain't gonna get that without proper government. Which they will not get because they will not get a state and no control over their own security.

Security is the foundation for everything else. And security is the one thing Israel categorically refuses to grant them.

This whole conflict is about security.

Quote

The US cannot force a state on them without Israeli concession or going to war with Israel, since Israel has its military occupying the area.

The best the US can do is stop funding and arming Israel and impose sanctions. But we all know that's not gonna happen.

"Let us not hurl blame at the murderers. Why should we complain of their hatred for us? Eight years they've sat in the refugee camps of Gaza and seen with their own eyes how we have made our homeland of the soil of the villages where they and their fore-bearers once dwelt. Not from the Arabs of Gaza must we demand the blood of [the dead] but from ourselves."

-- Moshe Dayan, Israeli Chief of the IDF, 1956

What's amazing is that modern Israelis are so brainwashed with their own propaganda that they do not know the words of their own founders.
