Controversial interview by Scott Ritter

He seems to say that Palestine is a ghost that many outsiders are chasing. i do not remember any videos where he spoke to palestians. He also gives a scenario of the destruction of Iran. He is more circumspect in his interviews at Judging Freedom'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArEAlNeyq9U A very different view the next day https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujKl3SJUkaM

Trump vs Deep State

"In other words, it appears that Trump uses the Deep State when he sees fit, and opposes it when it crosses him." from https://scheerpost.com/2025/03/10/patrick-lawrence-the-epstein-follies/ by Patrick Lawrence.

Brian Berletic theory

seems correct to me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8Z3SaZXj3M scott Ritter on Twitter(X): I’ve lost faith in the good faith of the Trump negotiating team. A 30-day ceasefire would be a boon to Ukraine. A chance to stabilize the frontlines. To strip all tactical and operational advantages Russia has accrued through the blood and sacrifice of their soldiers. And once Ukraine recovers, then to sit at a table where a rejuvenated Ukraine rejects Russia’s conditions for peace. Trump’s team has not negotiated in good faith. And the fact that this proposal is offered after Ukraine carries out a massive strike against Moscow? Russia will reject this ridiculous proposal. And hopefully escalate the violence to such a scale that the US will realize that there needs to be a realistic peace proposal agreed to in writing before any ceasefire takes hold. One that includes the withdrawal of all Ukrainian forces from Constitutional Russia. The Ukrainian troops can leave voluntarily. Or die. Trump isn’t serious about peace. And Ukraine will reap the whirlwind as a result.

Understanding Trump

“Kayfabe” It’s professional wrestler talk for the way they talk about each other and lead matches to a pre-determined outcome. It’s not exactly choreographed move by move, but they all know the library of available moves, how to drop the other guy on his head in a way that doesn’t break his neck, and so on. In many ways it’s more like ballroom dancing than an actual competition. They make each other look good right up to the end- and they both know what that’s going to be because they’ve been told by the promoters. Trump was part of the WWE, by the way. Watching some of the TV shows might help you understand Trump’s methods. https://sonar21.com/trumps-empty-threats-to-pressure-russia-falling-on-deaf-ears/
