The non-stop propaganda by the mainstream media (MSM) makes people think we are at the brink of war with Russia. The Obama/Biden Administration is clearly pushing for war in the region, but PCR says “no way” and goes on to explain, “How are we going to fight them? NATO in a battle with Russia would not last five minutes. I am just talking about conventional war. NATO cannot mobilize sufficient military force to confront Russia. They just don’t have it. The force isn’t there, and Russia does not want Ukraine. . . . Ukraine is bankrupt. It’s full of neo-Nazis, it’s trouble. . . . There is a propaganda war going on . . . but there is not going to be a shooting war over Ukraine. Something really stupid would have to happen to cause that.”
