11 Nov 2022 - Robert C. Castel_ Yesterday's pacifists wage liberal jihad against Putin _ Weeks Originals
This war is the war of the left, a liberal internationalist jihad, there are certain principles that have been defined, as well as political Islam, and they are waging war for these principles. When they fight against Putin, they are also fighting an ideological war against their own internal political opponents. That is why there are no protests, because those who would protest are the pacifists of yesterday, who protested against the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, but now it is their war. In one day, they've changed their clothes and become today's sword-wielding pro-war protesters," said Robert C. Castel, security policy expert and senior fellow at Neokohn, in a podcast interview with the Week.
Other topics covered in the interview:
Topic: US midterm elections
2:27 Did the war mean anything in the outcome? Did the voters have a message about this, or is it a distant conflict that does not involve American soldiers?
4:00 Could American attitudes to the war change?
6:42 In general, what is the real issue that really matters to America, for the future?
8:15 Will America ever find its way back to itself?
9:18 Trump as tragic hero, the lone western knight: is Ron DeSantis' victory a gift for 2024 for Democrats or hope for Republicans?
12:13 Trump goes, Trumpism stays?
Topic: withdrawal from Herszon
13:28 You write "a milestone in a long war", obviously it doesn't decide the conflict, but let's try to interpret it. A strategic defeat? Did General Surovikin's "Armageddon" also fail?
15:14 Could there be some kind of deal behind the withdrawal?
17:00 Does the fact of a deal mean a positive development?
17:57 Or cold tactical consideration, based on a cost-benefit calculation?
19:03 Or something else, such as evacuation of territory before deployment of a more destructive weapon? For example EMP weapon - how does it work, what is it for, what are the risks?
21:25 Deployment of ballistic missiles? What escalation would that represent compared to drone warfare?
Topic: the desire for peace (or lack thereof)
22:35 Mark Milley, head of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, has said that 40,000 Ukrainian civilians and "well over" 100,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or wounded, and probably the same number of Ukrainians. Are these figures realistic?
25:40 Why, with such a huge loss of life, are all responsible leaders not seeking peace while holding a series of conferences for endangered species? Do they really want to continue this proxy war to the last Ukrainian?
28:55 Who holds the key to compromise? Who can stop this madness?
Why can't there be a territorial compromise?
29:46 After WWI and WWII, countries were divided up with the stroke of a pen. They were unjust peace dictates, but they guaranteed peace for decades. If Truman and Churchill could make a deal with Stalin, why can't we try to do the same with Putin today?
31:30 What could be the consequences of European borrowing for Ukraine?
