I'm a simple man, I see Alastair Crooke on the thumbnail, I click on it. Thanks Guys.
Likewise, he's well spoken and considered.
@@brutallyremastered4255 Me, three. He's a superb analyst with decades' experience in diplomacy.
Me too
also agree: deeply experienced, thoughtful, considered and working for the best, NOT like the nasty man in the white house
Diplomat Crooke is on the top of my list of persons I NEED to listen to.
Thanks George...and Peter from the great RT NEWS. I just see tonight George is on TH-cam (WI/USA) I am subscribed and welcome aboard. You will be another essential site I watch, there is not many worth watching, but I'm glad you are on. Best, w
Alastair Crooke is outstanding his insights are worth their weight in gold
Stop licking his rear end!
It's always such a treat to listen to Alistair Crooke on matters geopolitical.
Alastair is such a gem
Agreed
no hes not
@DeadManWalking4574
No, but you are. 😅😂🤣
Let's keep it hush hush betwixt the two of us. 🤫🤓
Follow Orban to PEACE! ❤
"You can't print soldiers." -Alastair Crooke (as opposed to limitless US cash)
Great discussion, thank you!
Alastair is the ultimate gentleman scholar. 🌷👍
Thank you having your very spceial guest
I could listen to Alastair all day.
What a treat 👌
As always , Peter and George
Great guest Thankyou
Biden also in the ABC interview "i'm the guy that runs the world"
Crazy smile
😂
I don,t think Trump will change much,you only get one chance in politics but the fish rots from the head so decline will continue continue continue continue
He still shows himself with Bolton and Pompeo. The bloody Venezuela crew is back together. Mexico is still a thorn in Trumps side, and China, sorry i mean "CHAINA" is still an open confrontation, Trump wouldn't let go. And the right in Europe would probably support that one.
Alastair Crooked is Geniuse ❤❤
Great guest!! 😊
The west needs people like this man as presidents or PMs, not clowns like Boris Johnson, Macron, Sholts, Biden.
Trudeau what a clown, a dangerous clown
Thank you all!
Great conversation between 3 of my favourite geopolitical experts. Have Alistair on again guys.
He talks like a free and sage man. A geopolitical wizard,. a fair one can differentiate right from wrong. In these days a rara avis!!
Great show. Thank you for elevating the discussion with Alistair to the deeper historical level.
I always learn something different from Alastair Crooke, an important voice in our world. Thanks for having him on.
Very interesting. I think I will be digesting for a few days. Until next time, Thank You All!
Fascinating discussion, thank you The Gaggle
Always brilliant, that Alistair Crooke!
The best of guests......
Thank you Gentlemen always good to hear from you. Good Day.
He’s full of knowledge, you can hardly take it all in. Men like him, so practical, common sense give me a little hope, that there is hope
Alastair simply the most intelligent man, with a wealth of knowledge
Brilliant! And chilling......
Thanks for your great contribution once again God bless you Alister crook 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you for the incredible guest.
excellent analysis by A. Crooke
Excellent analysis, IMHO. Thank you gentlemen.
Thank you
May you live in interesting times
Excellent commentary from three smart guys!
Great video. Thanks
Brilliant conversation - thank you
Big AL is a rockstar
This is gonna be a great show!!!!! Thx guys, one of the best with two of the best!
Best podcast out there.
Excellent 👌
Alastair is such an eloquent speaker but Peter interrupts him far too much!😡
Peter is unpleasant in his interrupt ions too often
It's much more important to hear Peter's views (as if everyone isn't already all-too-well aware) than to have endure a guest's input.
... so disrespectful of both guests and audience. When watching him on CrossTalk, years ago (prior to RT getting the Facebook treatment), I thought of him as a polite professional.
Watch him on Dialogue Works with Dima, who let's his guests run with it
Agree too many interruptions
Let your guests speak, for Christ sake!!!!
Peter, did you have Alistair here for a debate or an educationally discussion?? 🤔 if the latter, then let the man speak for God's sake 🙄
I think the Hungarians cancelling Baerboks visit due to her dreadful attitude could be a blueprint and a turning point, someone bringing a scripted failed message to spew for the 100th time needs to be stopped, no more robotic stooges
Sing, Sing it out so clear! Marvelous moral voice at this critical hour.
Such a great guest
In UK strong vote for independents and greens and reform. All anti war
Reform is NOT anti war, heritage party is ,just look back the last to years, under Richard Tice, it was fully backing Ukraine and he even had nazis inhis show on talktv , just because Farage said it was provoked , it's not meaning they won't support Ukraine's 'fight'. Not even mentioning Israel and China where they are absolutely for war!!!!
I believe at the start of the SMO that the UK Green Party supported military assistance to Ukraine .
I'm Watching U from Ghana ❤❤
like the differing factions vying for power in any failed state.
1st time I've seen your podcast. Love Alistair Crooke! He has a Wealth of Knowledge & Experience. Always appreciate his perspective. I have one comment/observation. Peter is a bit annoying. He keeps interrupting & doesn't appear to understand what Alastair is saying. You could see Alastair starting to lose his patience. Alastair's statements are very clear cut & not at all confusing or obscure. I'll give your podcasts one more try. If all Interviews are the same with Peter interrupting, I'll say goodbye. Go to 8:50 to see an example of what I'm talking about.
Money talks the loudest and the pragmatists are making sure the money is on the right side. Thank God for a multi polar world 🎉
Ussr came out of it and russia is thrieving now so that this can happen is proof.
Mr Crooke you need a better microphone, for the sake of all the other shows and this
Peace in Ukraine is both difficult and simple. The border regions, in all the European countries, have special legislations because they are on the fence between ethnicities and languages. The core problem is Ukraine's neutrality.
The situation would be simple if it wasn't for the USA and that other state, the CIA.
Ukrainians for decades acted with understanding and sense, despite all the corruption until a lot of money poured in from the Americans AND a lot of propaganda was successfully used.
Ukraine: it’s like Taking Candy from a Baby. 3:59
I can see prince Jarrad of Kushner carving out a fiefdom in Boston
this interview came unstuck with the first question which as Alistar pointed out was three questions rolled into one very general and lead to a generally meandering answer it is where judge Napolitano excels with specific questions which don't require him to interupt
The British election has ensured this optics idea will harden this cruel approach.
What rules based order? Gaza anyone?
No, what's that?🤔
Is it a type of candy bar?🤔
I hope you don't mind me commenting here , something Mr Crooke has said kind of resonated . His take on the Israel , Hamas evolution is striking. A slow evolution leading to a collapse of the will to fight, attrition.
I believe that to be a prominent thing in our new world as a means to passive aggressively turn the tide of a conflict.
I believe it to be the foundations of espionage that has so much influence on my life, they grind you till you compromise yourself , and then your open or done. That's the resonance I was speaking of.
Are frozen conflicts really frozen...
The U.S. political scene is not as bad as people assume, I believe no one actually wants the top job so the regulatory and public private relations in an advanced economy are pretty much self sustaining as bodies in the system. Leaving the Circus as I've heard you refer to it before to push the ideologies back and forth in a perpetual game of tennis.
China and Russia have better things to do currently :)
( I miss the sound of Peters voice :)
Cretins replaced the learned wise men like Alastair at the FCO
The President-apparent can always bring a team together - there is much gravity at the centre of the money matrix - there will be 'allies'.
By now what Alastair Crooke says are well known revelations. And most analysts I follow gave better microphones
No mention of the damage done by unbridled capitalism.
Socially liberal --- as they form up for imperialist war. Actually extremely conservative - conservative like the 1936 Spanish military conservative.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💕💕💕♥️♥️♥️🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Macron, a basket case!🤣😂🤣😂
Charming Doug Emhoff in the Oval Office basically...consolidation.
I don't agree with Peter, T has not learnt that lesson, he will be blocked every step by those in power who hate him, Alastair is right he is doing the things they want at present but as soon as he doesn't ??
The only part of this discussion I didn't like was the comparison of the western elite to the bolsheviks. I found it truly bizzare.
It would be one thing to compare centuries old western imperialist elite to the centuries of Romanov dynasty. But the bolsheviks were the excact opposite of that. They were trying to topple the centuries old system. On top of that they were not ideologicaly dogmatic. Their core principle was historical materialism, the very opposite of ideological fanaticism.
I suppose some of the personal biases and political views of the panel are on display here.
Other than that, it was a good discussion so it gets a like from me.
nat.o is on its last legs since the dissolution of the USSR. That was nat.o s expiration date as well...
V. Orban will travel to Beijing and see Xi days later ( they met in Budapest just 5 weeks ago )
Zelensky understood Trump is to be the next one and Trump will sell Zelensky and Ukraine out. There is no choice, but Zelensky needs a middle man/men to conduct negotiation.
My guess is Orban and Xi are to share the peacemaker role.
New video shows that the Patriot missile system brought down a Russian missile and they both hit the school
Front national won in France. Not le pen. On the left
And Powell saying no more printing..................
What happened to CROSSTALK? That still a thing?
Not sure , but I think with banning of RT in most western countries , these types of interest programmes were put on ice .
@@ulyssesgunt Shame. It was a good shouting match.
Lol blue control come on say the forbidden 3 letter word. It starts with j just like in Europe. 😂
Beirut esplosione, august 4 2020
Apologies, my device broke typing. I did not meant spam your replies
IT'S A GREATER ISRAEL PROJECT IN UKRAINE
actually globally but yeah you're right
Peter It's Israel not Palestine
❤ from occupied usa Palestine, Palestine, Palestine! 38:18
The sound of guest is terrible .Hard to listen
Trump could be the man who saves Ukraine and Ukrainian lives
Sorry, but the sound of Alistair is so bad I can’t watch. He’s very hard to understand anyway. Here he’s sitting in a large room with echo talking into a bad mic. 👎
You got to do better!
Alastair's sound was terrible, just terrible. The longer I listened the more annoying it got.
His mic was picking up all of the natural reverb in that room.
Didn't help Peter rudely interapting him constantly 😕
With a Jew husband?
It's like the Star Wars bar scene writ large.
If you're able to reduce every issue to "wokeness" (whatever that might mean) versus conservatism, you're too clever by half.
You guys interrupt your guest too much.
Good discussion but comparing neoliberalism to Bolshevism is ahistorical absurd mental masturbation. But that's ok, you guys look as old as I am i.e, LGGBTQ....the second G stands for grumpy old people. Of course an identity to be proud of. 🙂
What do these 3 intellectually view the world? They are intellectual sophists. Viewing Russia and China against the white Atlantic? Viewing the traditional white Atlantic values as real, now lost, must regain those values? They call the current politics of white Atlantic as bolshevism? Its ridiculous. Sophists intellectuals are a danger to the new man, new value, not values regained from past.........they don't wish to see he world as a class struggle, as an anti-racist struggle, anti-colonial struggle, colonial as a sequence where lied those white Atlantic traditional values......its useless to listen to their opinions, regurgitated in platform after platform.
ace guys
