This is a dissenting opinion that I also dissent with. But I respect the General's take on this too.
But I also agree with the General that there is SO MUCH DELIBERATE LYING coming from Ukraine...... and for that matter Russia too.
Wars have always involved lots and lots of false propaganda. In the internet age..... it's easier to debunk.
It goes back longer than that He's been spouting Russian propaganda for years. It's good that there are dissenting voices out there, but don't be naive and think that all of them are acting in good faith. Russia doesn't limit its propaganda efforts to cyber trollsK2-HMFIC said:
MacGregor has been parroting Russian talking points for several weeks now.
Just because you once served doesn't mean you can't be bought.
I think he's saying he's a puppet for NATO.aggiepanic95 said:
a puppet for who?
Ok, but we're in NATO. He uses the term puppet as a derogatory. I do not understand his line of reason.Troglodyte said:I think he's saying he's a puppet for NATO.aggiepanic95 said:

Wonder if MacGregor's net worth has taken a big hit recently or if he was smart enough to negotiate his contract so that the Russians would pay him in dollars and not rubles.Albatross Necklace said:

Makes sense, thanks.Troglodyte said:
Macgregor is saying that NATO is talking Zelensky into taking a stand against Putin or in essence fighting a war for NATO. Macgregor thinks the best thing for Ukraine is to be more pro Russian to avoid the slaughter of Ukrainian.
Not saying I agree, but that's what he's saying.

Neutral means Russia's....there is no other possibility at this point. What a silly assertion.

I saw him on another show where he favored Russia taking over Ukraine. Kept saying that Russia does not want NATO that close. Reporter asked him if they took Ukraine, would Poland be next. He never answered.

"Ukraine should be neutral ". Easy to say if you're not Ukraine. Ukraine doesn't want to be neutral. They wanted protection and they wanted protection from Russia.
No, it's not. Taking Ukraine moves Russian troops even closer to NATO. Restoring the borders of the Soviet Union or Imperial Russia has nothing to do with logic.The Debt said:AggDogg61 said:

Russia taking ukraine is rational.
Asking him to speculate about Poland is just shtt stirring.
