You don't understand the meaning of the word "lose". We haven't LOST a war since probably ever. We have decided to LEAVE or END wars sure, but "losing" would mean we lost a majority of battles or lost significant battles or significant soldiers. We haven't ever "lost" a war. Now Russia, Russia has lost some wars.
WOW! Hodges called for the lifting of the restrictions TWO, that is 2, months ago! There should NEVER had been any restrictions on the use of the weapons! If one ever can use the expression "a day late and a dollar short" this is one such occasion!
The difficult thing with Germany is that Scholz is a buddy of Schröder (ex-Chancellor who joined Gazprom a few weeks after retiring as Chancellor and good buddy of Putin) and continues to be one, not in word of course, but in deed.
It's pretty hilarious to see these guys try and compare Iraq and Afghanistan to Ukraine as if the US got stopped out side Baghdad or the taliban captured surrendering US troops in droves of company and battalion strength.
bots? you yourself have been programmed to believe this crap, women can be men, men can get pregnant, climate crisis the sky will fall down, you loser.
Gen. Hodges and Chaze provide most useful and balanced analysis. He sure brings out the trolls so proof of his sagacity is offered with this surfeit of derision. They're scared in the the Krumblin.
@sherhaiderkhan4986 Your references don't even make sense because they are people that Invaded Russia & the Irony about Hitler's Invasion is it was America that bailed Russia Out 7 supplied them with Military & Non Military Aid that they never paid for. In 2024 we are talking about Russia Invading Ukraine so your suggestions don't even apply to today's reality.
Keep laughing. Those second generation hypersonic Oreshnik missiles travelling at MACH 10, (that's faster than the speed of sound) cannot be intercepted or stopped, can reach all of Europe & can carry thermonuclear bombs. NATO is playing with fire and all it's citizens lives right now. If you think "MAD" is going to prevent a nuclear exchange between NATO and Russia, you are seriously underestimating how far this man is willing to go to see this war through to the bitter end. He will drag the whole world down with him if he has to.
You obviously haven't been listening, he says how the Ukrainians can win in practically every single TH-cam videos he's in. Dummy up and get yourself sorted, "m8".
That was Mark Milley, the guy who panicked and called China and later predicted Ukraine couldn't regain Crimea, while making sure it lacked the tools to do so.
Really according to the Russians this guy and the rest of nato are bleeding them white in Ukraine all while not losing a single nato boot on the ground.
Oh, Germany was still deep inside France when it sued for peace in WW1. Same here, except Putin probably won't make it out alive, like the Kaiser managed when he went into exile.
What is wrong here? The value of the ruble? Or the gains of territory for the russians? The quality and functionality of russian railways? russia is falling apart. And close to bancrutpcy.
He has been right most of the time. Most importantly, he was right in predicting that Zelenskyy wouldn´t flee, Ukrainians would fight, and russian orcs would not take Kyiv or most of Ukraine in 2022 or ever. After that, he correctly predicted that Ukraine's allies would eventually allow HIMARS, ATACMS, F-16s, Tanks, etc to be delivered to Ukraine. You should start paying attention, and perhaps get another job because your incompetence as a troll is genuinely pathetic.
@@aimformyheadplease Indeed. If someone could name ONE THING Ben Hodges has gotten wrong, but they can't. They just suckle on the Russian propaganda teet because they are either ignorant, ill informed or from a country with very poor education and so lack analytical skills. That and of course, unfortunately some countries whether in Africa or elsewhere will turn to Russia because they're vengeful about colonialism and yet they have no conception that Russia colonized the entire northern part of Asia from native tribes and peoples.
It is not winning neither is it losing.Russia cannot sustain its aggression .If Ukraine can hold old on it will win.I suggest you look back in history and you will then know what I am talking about
I am a 76 year old American living and working in Kherson, Ukraine, throughout the full scale invasion and I have been following things very closely and I agree entirely with General Ben Hodges. However, I would go further and also send American soldiers to Ukraine to fight. This is in accordance with the Budapest Memorandum as I see it. Furthermore, I am not asking anyone to do what I am doing.
You are brave sir, and I respect you as a human. Being there says alot. Here in the rest of the world, we don´t want war, that is the thing. And Minsk Accord, that should say something too?Who broke it? Have a good day Sir.
Sorry but no way grandpa. As an american and father I can tell you right now I don't want my kids being sent to fight for Ukraine's sovereignty. It's not our fight, the US is done fighting proxy wars. If you want go take up arms or send your own kids and grand children to the front lines you are welcome to do so, but don't drag the rest of us into this. But of course you don't care, you're already on your way out and probably have no family....
@@krek17 Ukraine is not a NATO country and it never will be. NATO = American subjugation of the Eurasian Continent through insidiousness and clandestine operations.
You are the one who is detached from reality and he very good understanding of the significance of this war but there is no leaders in the west today .
That General is the smartest man I have seen on any of the news media in regards to this. He needs to come out of retirement and get rid of the "useful idiots". Should at the very least be close adviser to president.
Those Americans would have spoken well of Adolf Hitler, and would talk down the ultimate sacrifice of hundreds our brave sons who confronted that evil.
It was "Hopeless" in February 2022 that Ukraine would even exist as an Independent Nation. Russia's proven time & time again it's not a destroyer of Hope.
If putin can use missiles range up to 5,000 miles, then Ukrainians can use the same missiles that can reach 5,000 miles against Russia who invaded their country. Putin is a world cancer from Russia!
@@IxoraNera As I recall, the Soviets killed quite a few themselves both in the 10 years they were in Afghanistan and again when they joined "The War on Terror".
He is a war monger. Ben Hodges does not admit the fear and confusion Hypersonic missile “Oreshnik ” has created in the USA, NATO and Europe. He has taken part in two worthless wars Afghanistan and Iraq. Both destabilized the respective countries or region with negative impact for the whole world. In December 2010 he became director of the Pakistan Afghanistan Coordination Cell at the Joint Staff. Pakistan has been USA‘s bad boy in the region ever since 1948 playing a puppet of the USA and CIA war mongers to destabilize the region and give trouble to India and Afghanistan.
Thank you to Mr. Ben Hodges - this was truely a great interview. Lots of common sense, and cutting all the BS away.
with generals like that , no wonder the U S is loosing all is wars . '
The U.S. never looses. Sometimes loses.

There has never been more waste of the Bully Pulpit than Biden's failure to inform the masses on a number of issues, including Ukraine.
Love this man’s direct talk
Where is our leaders simply saying to Russia, “Get out of Ukraine”? Like, when Reagan said, “Tear down that wall!"
