(She is from the Russian nobility whose family used to live in Georgia before the Revolution)

Metaphorically? - ill-conceived analogy

Depends on what you knew at the time, but as it stands, of course.

Take your bs somewhere else.

No, because at that time the Soviet Union was a vastly, vastly inferior nuclear power to the United States. Krushchev knew it was a blunder and realized he had to get the problem resolved. He also had Castro being irrational, pushing for a nuclear launch from Cuba and pestering Kruschev for control if those missles and decision making on when to launch. Kruschev rightly refused to hand control over to Kennedy. Thus the deal on Turkey and keeping it quiet from Castro. It benefitted Kennedy and Catri both that the Turkey deal be kept quiet.

@@yam2050 "Take your bs somewhere else." He was right. Why do you angry?

America deployed nuclear missiles into the Soviet Union’s region because NATO did not have an adequate defense against the massive Red Army deployed on its border in the Warsaw Pact. The Red Army deployed immediately when the Nazis surrendered to grab as much land as possible and only American nuclear airpower (B-29s) made them withdraw from, for example, Iran. So only the west’s nuclear forces could deter regional invasions and coercion via the Red Army. That is why missiles were emplaced in Turkey, because the Red Army directly threatened Turkey. Everyone who has lived with Russia knows their game. If they can, they invade. If they can’t, they engage in subversion. It’s just what they do and all their neighbors know it intimately.

@@tommyrq180 Sounds like past UK and current US.

Yup. They ignore anything that does not support the U.S. and U.K. official government positions. I suppose, even amongst independent minded, tenured Academics, only superstars like Professor John Mearscheimer, or Professor Jeffrey Sachs, or Professor Noam Chomsky, are moral and courageous enough to speak independently, based on their years of scholarship, and/or political experience, or powerfful enough, like Henry Kissinger, who himself even broke ranks and spoke out against U.S. escalation of the conflict. (A good way to test the panelists' intellectual honesty would have been to ask all three, if they believe the U.S. and U.K. government proclamations that Russia blew up their own pipeline, or if it is more probable, that the U.S. blew it up. Most neutral experts will admit it is more likely that the U.S. did.)

@@stevelang6990 neutral experts say the U.S. did it, huh? Who are these "neutral" experts that you speak of? I'm sure they're anything but neutral but your bias won't let you believe otherwise...

you must be joking

Kanye West is not welcome 😂🤣🤣

@@tj2636 Are you sure? Why's that, because you have looked into it? What was Russia's motivation to blow up their own pipeline? The U.S. has claimed for years that Putin was using the pipeline as a weapon to extort Europe, why would he blow up his own weapon? He didn't have to blow it up, he could have just turned it off. Promising to turn it back on again if there was a Negotiated Peace, was his leverage. Why would he blow up his leverage. The U.S. has been against the pipeline for years and Biden warned back in February of this year: "WASHINGTON, Feb 7 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday warned that if Russia invades Ukraine, there would be no Nord Stream 2, but did not specify how he would go about ensuring the controversial pipeline would not be used. Speaking at a joint news conference with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Biden said, "If Russia invades... again, then there will be longer Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it." When asked how he would do that, he responded, "I promise you we will be able to do it."------------------------------------------------------------- But to answer your question, the most prominent neutral expert is Jeffrey Sachs. He is an internationally respected former faculty of Harvard and Columbia University, Advisor to the UN, Public policy analyst, and senior advisor to governments, specifically: "In 1989, Sachs advised Poland's anticommunist Solidarity movement and the government of Prime Minister Tadeusz Mazowiecki. He wrote a comprehensive plan for the transition from central planning to a market economy which became incorporated into Poland's reform program led by Finance Minister Leszek Balcerowicz. Sachs was the main architect of Poland's debt reduction operation. Sachs and IMF economist David Lipton advised the rapid conversion of all property and assets from public to private ownership. Closure of many uncompetitive factories ensued.[25]" "Sachs's ideas and methods of transition from central planning were adopted throughout the transition economies. He advised Slovenia in 1991 and Estonia in 1992 on the introduction of new stable and convertible currencies. Based on Poland's success, he was invited first by Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev and then by Russian President Boris Yeltsin on the transition to a market economy." --------------Anti-globalist activists have called him a "cold hearted neo-liberal," which is why he was invited on corporate media news shows. "Professor Sachs told Bloomberg: "The destruction of the Nord Stream pipeline which I would bet was a US action perhaps US and Poland. But host Tom Keene interrupted: "Jeff, Jeff you've got to stop there, that's quite a statement as well. "Why do you feel that that was a US action? What evidence do you have of that?" Professor Sachs continued: "Well, first of all, there's direct radar evidence that US helicopters, military helicopters that are normally based in Gdansk were circling over this area." ""We also had the threats from the United States earlier in this year that one way or another, we are going to end Nord Stream. "We also have a remarkable statement by Secretary Blinken last Friday at a press conference, so he says this is also a tremendous opportunity. "It's a strange way to talk if you're worried about piracy on international infrastructure of vital significance." "So I know this runs counter to our narrative and you're not allowed to say these things in the West but the fact of the matter is all over the world when I talk to people, they think the US did it." --------------------------------------------------------And the U.S. is now the country that Europe will be dependent on for gas. "Until Russia's invasion of Ukraine in late February, the Nord Stream 1 pipeline beneath the Baltic Sea from Russia to Germany was one of western Europe's main sources of gas." (From website) "Business Insider": "Energy companies and traders are raking in huge profits selling US natural gas to Europe as prices on the continent skyrocket, with a single shipment netting around $200 million of profit, according to industry experts. Aug 13, 2022"

There is such a debate. And Mearsheimer lost by a landslide.

@@charlesfiddespayne7474 Not according to the public present. That was the point of the debate. You can pick a side in front of the computer, but that is not relevant, because you are just one person. Ofc, I'm not saying that one side is completely wrong and the other side is completely right. There are valid arguments, in my opinion, on both sides. Just that those present considered one side's arguments more compelling.

A balance perspective would show that their arguments amount to ad hominem attacks and pure Russophobia with no actual self reflection about how this war actually started

We can and we do learn from history. We learn that england was the violent country in the 19th century, and that the USA is the most violent country sinse 1950 TO THIS DAY.

The non violent answer could lie in collectively raising awareness in regard to any illegal tactics commonly used, including by Chinese or Russians, in all other jurisdictions. Educate all leaders and populations on ethics in these countries. Welcome Ukraine war survivors and Russian refugees who declare to resist the war, as refugee migrants by giving them dual citizenship, provided they assist to end the war. These three strategies could help drive to peace.

I agree, Maester. This discussion was so one sided it was an echo. No one is charting a path to peace, just arrogant justification for their ridged view. I see a very biased view of history without nuance. What is left out is the promotion of NATO and support of the military-industrial's profits and its impact on Russia. MacMillan's comment on Germany in WW11, implying jealousy of England trade competition was a cause of the war - what a joke.

So true. "First time since the Cuban Missile Crisis, we have a direct threat of the (use of) a nuclear weapon if in fact things continue down the path they are going." Joe Biden "Above all, while defending our own vital interests, *nuclear powers must avert those confrontations which bring an adversary to a choice of either a humiliating retreat or a nuclear war.* To adopt that kind of course in the nuclear age would be evidence only of the bankruptcy of our policy, or of a collective death-wish for the world." John F Kennedy If not, history will simply repeat, and the entire Cold War "sh*tshow with death and destruction with return. "Sleepy Joe" is a bit late with his realisation.

You can definitely put McArthur in the same bunch as Taylor and Lemay

The surest way to start wars is to have lots of meaningful discussions.

not to worry, there are few in the west who have any memory. All attention is on the latest fashionable cause of the moment. that western nations have almost continuously been invading other countries is known by few.

Yup, that is why they are suffering because of the same stupid mistakes that they had gone through in the past like WW1 & WW2. This is another propaganda talk. The west deserved to be screwed and the pain that they are experiencing now is not painful enough to wake up.

The differance is that Western political systems allow for the replacement of leaders who may not be doing a satisfactory job. If Russians look at their leaders "special military operation" and realise the long term consequences of it ...what can Russians do about this dreadful leadership?...their political system does not allow for replacement of a bad leader.That is the moral of this entire debacle.

But you would like to have more academics, that side with Putin’s perspective, explain why the situation is far more complex than it appears. I’ve listened to these arguments, they don’t link up well with the facts. But if you have an interesting point, I’m interested in studying it. What if this war is straight forward? What if Russians are generally politically apathetic? What if Putin gambled and has lost? And what if these historians summarized the situation accurately?

@@TedATL1 Well it is anti-western to complain that a panel interview (which wasn’t a debate) should have included a contradictory perspective. I’m all for debates, but this was not a debate. Also, censorship is the blocking of ideas from being expressed. Intelligence squared has provided plenty of debate forums for an anti-western or realist viewpoint. You demanding that every discussion on the topic include a Kremlin friendly perspective is anti-western and is in fact illiberal.

Take Ukraine, if 2/3 wants to live with EU, 1/3 wants to live Russia, should the 1/3 be IGNORED? (the debate about minority rights among academics), and what if the 2/3 tries to FORCE the 1/3?
