The Chris Hedges Report: The truth about Ukraine with Medea Benjamin

I disagree with them. I think the war should continues for a few months so the Ukrainians can bury the Ruskies in a winter offensive. However, the war must end by the spring to avoid starvation crises. This war must have a terminal date for the cessation of hostilities.It cannot proceed into the Spring because we don't need more inflation of food price

Will be endless wars of aggression by that bastard.
Hedges is a weird bastard that gets airtime in the middle of the night on Pacifica along with antivax shitbirds and other new age leftovers.

conditions. When it gets really cold, those heat sources will be easy to spot and hit. They should be made to be afraid to be anywhere near a warm shelter or field kitchen.

The moment she started claiming that Russians are discriminated against by Ukrainians she lost me. What about the Holodomor? What about Stalin's purges? What about the Crimean Tartar genocide? What about all the statements by Putin that culminate to a declaration justifying genocide against the Ukrainians? What about the Russian bombing of all the civilian Ukrainian targets as a result of the Putin and Russian anti-Ukrainian mindset? What about the brutal centuries of Russian imperialist occupation of Ukraine?

This is bullshit and Hedges as well as this lady have no legitimacy to blame Ukraine or anyone other than the butchers in the Kremlin. And I'm sure they know it.
