In reply to the discussion: Robert Parry: When Henry Kissinger Makes Sense [View all]truth2power
(8,219 posts)Yes, Parry is discussing an issue raised by Kissinger. That concept is, perhaps, too complex for some here on DU. You don't have to like someone (and I despise Kissinger as much as you do) to acknowledge when they are right.
Actually, it's not that some DUers don't understand; it's that they are being deliberately obtuse, because to not do so would be to open the door to the TRUTH of what's going on in Ukraine.
It goes without saying that just about 100% of what DUers are being told, here, about the Ukraine situation is false.
Robert Parry has been spot-on about Ukraine and about Mr. Putin. But there are others, also, who refuse to be silenced and continue to counter the lies we're being told:
Ray McGovern
Stephen Cohen - scholar of Russian studies
Pepe Escobar
Finian Cunningham
Michael Parenti
Jeremy Scahill
John Pilger
Dmitri Orlov
John Mearsheimer - author of "How the West Caused the Ukranian Crisis
Gilbert Doctorow - Political analyst of international affairs with concentration on Russia
Nicoli Petro
Dave Lindorff
.....and others
Oh, yeah, Peter Lavelle, Moderator of Crosstalk, who said: "The U.S. and its allies have a hard time with a Russia who can say 'no'."
Here's an interview with Stephen Cohen where he explains the Ukraine issue, from the very beginning:
24 minutes. Anyone can spare that.
Now, wait for it...someone will come along to complain about RT, instead of responding to the merits of the discussion. *sigh*
