The. All right, lets start with this very important conversation going on in the United States right now, but it couldnt possibly be any more important. My gosh, think about this. Its about whether the people of the United States that involves me and maybe some of you are watching right now. Want to start a war with restaurant seriously, whether you want, do you want to start a war with russia . Do you really want to start a war with russia . I wont say that that would be possibly the beginning of world war 3. But if youre thinking about that, you probably might be right or at least asking a good question to yourself. Heres, heres the deal, and heres why im asking the question and, and posing all of this ukraine has recently been bombing and killing civilians in a russian border city that its, thats named belgrade. You probably dont know, but if you happen to live in the United States, because the media here doesnt report that. But because of that, russia has tried to create or says its creating this safe zone inside of ukraine in a place called clock off. Some would call it park off, but you create in to call it car key, whatever, to try and stop the bombing. So the russians are moving into that area to stop the bombing, because thats where the missiles are being used to fire and developed around the the follow that. Okay. And theyre doing it by hitting that area right there near the russian border. Well, so the us secretary of state, pardon me, the us secretary of defense, i misspoke lloyd austin was asked recently if you crane should now be allowed to use us weapons, the weapons made here in the United States to bomb russia. Right. Or mind you, they already are bombing rush. I mean, theyre already doing it, but regardless lets, lets pretend theyre not right. So when lloyd austin was asked this question, he said no, heres the headline. This is what you can read right about. Now i think this is a b c news, but everybody picked it up. As you can see, what general austin is saying is that theres an expectation by him that when he gives you crane weapons or when United States gives you crane weapons, they will be used inside them ukraine only. They would not be used to attack russia, which kind of makes sense, right . We dont want to be given somebody weapons and then theyre shooting them off and getting china or russia and right, so obviously not to the us media of the. See the us media doesnt find this obvious which, which is even you could almost argue that there are members of the media in the United States that are more, were hungry. Then the us general himself, the guy whos in charge of the defense department. Like like people and cnn and stuff like that they, they almost are more of yeah, hawks. Then people even at the state department are believe it or not it its, its obvious. Just watch the news so. So these folks, in this case i think it was a b, c. They sought out their favorite people to talk to after the secretary general, secretary of defense, pardon me. Said no, we dont want ukraine bombing russia. They made a phone call to victoria nolan, victoria nolan, who was an auto bash russia hating war hawk. And she suggested, yeah, we should encourage ukraine to bomb russia. She never mentioned that ukraine has already been bombing russia. She never talks about bell gerad. So heres new and being asked if you crane should bomb russia with us weapons, listen to what you said and do you think they should i think, is the attacks are coming directly from over the line in russia that those bases ought to be fair game whether they are where missiles are being launch from, or where they are, where troops are being supplied from. I think its time for that because russia has obviously escalated this war, including as you said, is the beginning attacking rush, the 2nd city har keys, which is not on the front lines and trying to designate it without ever having to put a boot on the ground so i think it is time to give the ukrainians more help hitting the spaces inside russia to listen to it to say, i feel like im doing the daily show here instead of a new show, because this is almost like funny how ridiculous it is. That she uses the fact that russian soldiers and Russian Troops come from russia. Therefore, ukraine should attack russia because Russian Troops and russian soldiers and russian r at munitions come from wherever. How else could they come from and darted to like the new wish of attack rushed up because the troops and the soldiers, and the guns and the ammunition and the weapons that are being used on your great and couple of mazda, of course, that come from russia by the way, what she is suggesting is an all out were with russia and martha ravaged, the woman whos interviewing or she doesnt even push back. Its like, oh, okay, thats what you mean. Okay. Manila, i mean, did you pick up on any of this to well, rec, if we apply the same reasoning that victoria new and used there, then the 20 years that the United States occupied afghanistan, it would have given the taliban the right to wire off missiles or use their you know, their, uh, whoever, supporting them, the taliban to fire rockets off this way to mainland United States. So that kind of rhetoric is nothing more then trying to continue more and more bloodshed. She was saying, how you know, and the rest of it, that interview saying how we didnt move fast enough. We, as in the United States and congress didnt move fast enough to supply more arms. As we know, there was a contingent of republican congress, people who are holding back, holding the line from giving for aiden arms to, to below the mirrors, the landscape. However, the rest of that sound bite. Rick, i think is important to note if you ever want to know why war is a racket, victoria knew and wraps up her interview by saying that, by the way, most of this ukraine aid is coming right back to the Defense Industry as provides the good jobs in more than 30 states here in the United States, martha, lets start a war with russia because it will provide great jobs for americans here, the United States, and then well all die during world war 3. But we have the app rep can make it up, but we will embrace of good money before we die. Right. Buying good news by the way. Victoria mueller. Uh. Let me just add one more thing before we go. Stop. Dont move the teleprompter yet because were not going to move on to the next story. Theres something i should say. And i always forget to save this, but this important way to start a war with russia. Right. And so Many Americans dont know this either. Let me just say this, because this is important. They have more Nuclear Warheads than we do. One more time. They have more Nuclear Warheads, then we do. Wouldnt be smart to start a war with russia. I wouldnt before it. What do you say . Let me know later by the way, inventory and newly doesnt start world war 3. Theres always these old white guys in the us congress or willing to do it. Are you ready for this Southern Congress . Men are proposing that idea of soldiers receive the same benefits of us soldiers enjoy, which essentially means that they are expanding this u. S. Military to include israels military. Again, i am making this up. Heres what it says. Let me read it to victor. Put this up on the screen, look at the see that as you can see, it says the service of a citizen of the United States in the idea of will be treated in the same manner as the services of a soldier in uniform services. How in the hell do you think this will be received around the world . If we literally say that from now on, the us army and the israeli army will be one of the same. Which is what these congressmen, thank god is not the entire congress is just a couple of guys. Were proposing this one to suggest, but no well rec source. After i finish rolling my eyes, we should say that this is a clickable to roughly 20000 dual citizen american slash is rarely people that are currently serving in the id for member service. And the idea is mandatory is compulsory. If you maintain a and is rarely passport. Now that said, i take personal ambridge to this stupid ridiculous bill. I am the wife of a veteran who is permanently disabled. And for years and years and years, we always hear how the v a doesnt have enough resources. To do a or to do b, we cant take care of our veterans because of this matter, the other thing. But now youre saying you want to spread those limited resources to people who im there. Theyre granted, theyre also americans, but they never served in the us military. Yeah. These are tools citizens serving in a foreign military. And if the resources are as limited as a claim, they are for our own veterans who works tens of thousands of them homeless, starving, dying on the street, got drug addicted. We cant serve them after theyve served this country. But now you want to give those limited resources away to people serving elsewhere. Its absolutely ridiculous. Those people should resign. You think it will make a lot of americans angry, but its also going to make a lot of people overseas angry. I cant imagine the people in the middle east are not gonna look at this and say, oh, so basically what youre saying is the United States and israel are now one country. Uh and if israel is gonna take us on, including a rod which would be hearing with very big years that this conversation, theyre gonna say that essentially you guys are taking us on to i just cant see this ending up in any way other than like a freaking disaster or a catastrophe . Absolutely. This of the optics of this alone, rick shows that were walking in lock step and further supports be ongoing genocide. No matter what they say that this is an agenda side. This i think supports that in that were not no longer tacitly supporting it. Were actively supporting it. Yeah. Good point. Oh, thanks. But when we come back, by the way, sam will say we care about sam. Hes an independent journalist who covers the state department. You know, whats great about sam and youre not going to be talking here in just a little bit. In fact, i think youre going to see him here. There is, i say im, how are you, you know, whats clear, but you know, whats cool about this . Got, he is not a laptop. So many journalists are, he asked tough questions. That often makes state Department Officials seem both foolish, nervous, maybe even a little hypocritical, maybe even a lot have a critical. Weve got an example of exactly what were talking about when we come back, stay right there. Of the russian states. Never as one of the most sense community best, most all sense and up the in the system must be the one else calls question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the russians cruising and split the ortiz full neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube, the services for the question, did you say a request for check the the wallet, other unit up. What sky . Cuz a lot on your flow was the when you talk, talk with ball. Got them for the for the move the by the way if ive the money for the theatre, if ive heard of human views for that, please just like us, just do it really a couple i get those go for need a lot more to the door. So familiar with this one as a set of lights. Yeah, theres no blushing but just as soon as i make you submit it and theyll get you in there, which is thats what when you put it, you got it. Got to be the of the the welcome back. Im rick sanchez. And ive been doing this for so long and i always enjoy when somebody does real journalism. So im going to place something here for you in just a little bit. This is, heres the state department. Can i say lackey . Hes kind of a lackey, you know, somebody is paid to. Hes kind of like a p r guy. Matt miller. Right. He says, hes saying how theyre the i c c, the International Criminal court. The International Criminal court came out recently and criticized is real, a master benjamin that the guy whos arrest right for what . 40000 people who are dead. 15217000 children who are dad the, you know, to alleged genocide of a country trying to get rid of all the people who happen to be palestinians who live in that area. At least theres really accusations, right . So the icpc is making the case and they say budget month and nothing. Yeah. Who should be arrested for that . Well, youre gonna hear matt miller essentially say all will the i c, c doesnt know what the hell is talking about how they are. They Say Something like that, they have no place to be saying Something Like that. And at the end, youre going to hear sam jose needs voice. My guest asking matt miller, a really good question. Good is United States fundamentally rejects the announcement today from the prosecutor of the International Criminal court that he is applying for arrest warrants for senior is really officials together with warrants for from us terrace. First of all, the israel has its own investigation. Second, we have accountability mechanisms here we have processes that are ongoing to look at israels compliance with International Humanitarian law. So there are places to look at these questions. Its just in our, in our view, fundamentally not our role of the i, c, c. Theres us get is not have drawers to, is there a different quote i wasnt referring to criminal jurisdiction about there was different ways to look at this long term. We agree with you that the policy and people should be a state that has the and have the ability to make these determinations. But thats not where we are today. Thats what were trying to get to you. Were fine with the i c. C going after the so no time slot. You are fine with the eyes you see going after russia in no time flat. But now to continue the question when they go after israel, how dare they owe bill to go after israel. Yes, go after russia, go after china, go after any country we dont like, but if you go up to a country, we like, then youre not a Real Organization and youre breaking all the rules. I mean, its a, its, i hate to say it, but my gosh, how hypocritical can you be . Family say me, hes an independent voice, but you should consider subscribing to hes, im sub stopped by the way. Hes on subs, doc, under the heading, whos saying sam could see it again. My friend, how are you . Good to be when you read. Thanks. So what happened after you asked them that question where you said you were so, you know, you were fine with russia doing it, but now youre not. What do you say . What happened . The only ignore me is low to call on me terribly often. Um, um but, but i had what i saw the effect would be later on, not miller v solve briefly there the a p reporter was more independent than most us journalists, although sometimes he, you know, ask some questions from august perspective. Yeah. As well, he is not, you know, i, i is different from me but hes better than the vast majority. Mainstream reporters, he picked up on it and started asking them regarding russia and what, what you ended up having is at the beginning, miller was falsely saying that is that uh uh they, they dont apply the i, c, c, a, in the case of israel palestine because it is ro isnt a party and they claim that house isnt a party either because its not a real estate. Welf. I mean the us can have that position, but its a meaningless position of israel. Palestine is a member of the i, c. C. It, you know, you go to the, i see, see, web page, its listed, palestine, the state of palestine is, are joined in 2015. I even did the screenshots on my latest piece there. So theres no why is that . So hes saying look, that they have no right to do this in defense of palestine because palestine is not a member, is not a real state, per se, at least according to the i c. C. Youre here to tell us. Yes they are. So that means youre not at all that millers lie or, or hes ignoring millers learning and saying that its not a real member of the i c, c, the i c. C says its a damn we all member is a state of palestine on their web page. They joined in 2015. Its an outright lie. And then later on uh he, uh, uh, uh, he uh, claimed later on, matt, matt lee picked up on my questioning. So so, so just to just have yours up, matt levy is the reporter for a p. Matt miller is the, the, the, the, the, the talking had to represent the state department of the United States. So matt levy is asking matt miller, what questions go ahead. Right. Keep, keep followed up on my question in saying, what about russia and the i c c. Because you know, you, youre saying that, you know, israel isnt a party in russia isnt a party. So whats the difference here . Why, why are you accepting it . And one in rejecting it and then other, and he says, well, the difference is that ukraine is ukraine, is a member, is, are they . Well, theyre not white again. He lied on both sides of the equation. Deep sleep claim, the palestine wasnt a member. And then he falsely claimed that ukraine wasnt maam, and of course, that of course, backed up picked up by the New York Times and abc news and cnn. And theyre all now letting us know that there are people at the state department who are lying to us who live here in the United States. That happened right. Course that happened. Yeah. And thatll work. Thatll work. Nobody picked up one thing, nobody picked on it in the room. I had actually left the room at that point. I mean, i had, you know, its kind of hard what i hollered, you know, to attempt to intercede in the situation. And i finally, you know, i plan frankly, i got set up in this situation and my phone was dying. So i, you know, i headed out and it was only a couple of hours later that i found that i looked at it and i was like, hold on. Yeah. Even the, you know that, matt, we, the a p reporter picked up on my questioning. And that he lied, so they have this massive park receive. Yeah. And you know, i didnt get to asked a proper set questions, but just me raising the issue and another recorder of picking up on it with them to be making multiple, multiple lives. Matt, matt miller, the spokes person, even at one point, seemed to be claiming that the i c. C. Hadnt bothered to even go to israel, which is brain generally falls, right. The prosecutor went to israel. He met with families who had had loved ones killed on october 7th, a whole 9. You didnt go to gaza. But they claimed that he didnt. It is ro, weve just, well its, its good. I mean, i gotta tell you, people ask me sometimes you know, why do you know how to show on r t, my gosh, watching television. Can i tell you something just as a friend, i still more free and independent, doing journalism here. Then i did when i worked at nbc, when i worked at cnn, when i worked at telemundo, when i worked at clear channel, what, where else did i work . I cant even remember. I worked at all the fox news about getting all of them i, i have fewer. We always have some kind of debate in this business. You know that. But i get your less push back here that i ever have working at all those places where i entered and produced a new sam you, i believe, i believe that i think, i think any big outlets youre going to have some kind of constraint, right . But, but the constraints in us establishment media and given the mass criminality of us policy, the mass of populace in the lines of us policy is so massive. So if you have an outlet that basically asks, acts as a funky in some respect, and not those from box to cnn to m s. N b c, youre gonna get, you know, nass, of the distortion of the troops at minimum, new i hope taking a back are you by the way, when you sit in there and you watch this love affair and all. 6 out constant defense of israel and im not gonna look, i dont want to, i dont want to knock is real. Theres a lot of great things about israel. I went to israel, israels, in many ways, a wonderful country with great people whove done wonderful things. But its position when it comes to the palestinians shouldnt be brought the question. And for some reason you go to these hearings and you listen to these folks and you watch these reporters. Its crazy. Its like were not saying you have to hate them. But at least be honest about some of the crap that theyre doing. How do you deal with that . Oh, its very frustrating, being in the rooms of house, tell you that. But, but it, to me, the more insidious thing is how the state department, it sets up things for, you know, they, they sort of pretend to say, oh, well we, we really advise as well to take more precautions for, you know, as if theyd care perfect. But, but then when you really dig into the actual policy, its in cities, i asked a series of questions beginning last year and then i, i picked it up again about the Geneva Convention, the cornerstone of international law. Do you recognize virginia of the convention . Yeah. Applied to gaza and they, you know, the way you did and deceived every which way that they possibly could to avoid saying the obvious truth. No, we dont. Thats basically the Us Government policy. We dont recognize that the Geneva Conventions apply to the house to say apply to everybody on the plan. So so, so, so if the exemption excess, thats how so what, lets of the way you just said were not going to go by the Geneva Convention if were going to popo everything coming out of the united nation. So much so that we actually told the united nations, we dont want the palestine to have the right to be a nation. And then were going to criticize everything that the icpc and International Criminal court does then who, who is the ultimate arbiter of the World Affairs right now, globally speaking, us like washington, i guess, and you had, you know, a series of resolutions put forward at the u n and the us representative would raise their hands and retail it. Right. Did that all over again . You had the General Assembly passing resolutions, you know, a 140 to, you know, to 3 of us as well. And i dont know of a new game. Mckinney or something, so if we say no so, so it was a note on the i c c note on the u. N. Note in the International Criminal court. Oh and uh, who, who did i oh no, to the Geneva Convention. And were basically saying, yes, we are a head gemini, thats what we are and, and were copying to it and proud to say it, right . I mean, its, they dont talk to it and they dont say they dont even say outright. We dont recognize the Geneva Conventions, they just, you know, you know that they will evade the question. And it one time with this guy, matt miller, i said, do you recognize that you need be conditioned as applying to pulse it to palestine . And he said, we absolutely recognize Virginia Convention and then it quickly went onto the next question to the main to say that you recognize it with respect to palestine. Is that i meant exactly what i said its. And i said yes you did. It applies palestine really, so i meant its 790. 00 zipped his lips. We really like this impression that they are abiding by international law, while during the process of reading it, i think the next step of what has to happen so that the gen embley does have some mechanisms. It has a thing called uniting for peace. Where when a member of the Security Council, okay, its being come often and with its vito power and does abusing its power and just preventing the Security Council which as opposed to maintain security and is obviously failing in that respect to grab hold of the situation and i think where it has to, what were going to, what were going to watch for that. Maybe we want to have another conversation that seems to be the only place that can go given the conditions that we have right now. Sam, were out of time. You are the light to talk to, please keep up the good work. And once again, i would encourage people to go to sub stack and look up who say any read his stuff. Its good, its fair, its true. Thanks again sir. Thank you. Thats our show. Remember, always look outside your own box, chris, as we like to say, dont live in boxes. Im rick sanchez.
