Thanks for all you do, Scott!

At the link below, you can access Alison Weir's wonderful book, "Against Out Better Judgment: How the US was Used to Create Israel," that will explain a bit about Brandeis and how he came to be placed on the US Supreme Court. Hopefully "salmo jack" will read it too.

Also, salmo, I am a Muslim. I don't hate America. I was born and raised in the US. I spent nearly 24 years in the US Army - some consider that patriotic. I know many Muslims (at home and abroad) and not a single one of them hates the US or wants to destroy it.

If I have any problem with Scott it is that he too often defends Israel - but nobody is perfect 😊

I absolutely love this article. Thank you Scott Ritter. I’ve never been a fan of Fox or Tucker Carlson, but there’s no denying that what Carlson is doing is courageous and offers the slim hope that people will become aware of the lies that are being shoved down their throats about Vladimir Putin and Russia in order to advance American Empire goals at the expense of world peace. I hope that this interview opens up people’s minds to the reality that they have been duped by the MIC that today controls US government foreign policy.

Tucker 'Madness' is simply an indication of the Empire of Lies being a Hollow Shell of a nation, one whose 'Elite' are more interested in Narrative Control & their Managerial Hold on things... rather than the Public Good. For the former, 'Putin = Hitler' is a Core Tenet which cannot be allowed to Fail; which is why so much firepower is being brought to bear upon Tucker (even talks of sanctions!)

Awesome article, thank you! I agree, Tucker's interview will have a major impact, let us hope that it weakens further funding of the tragedy in Ukraine.

I LOVE the topics you would have discussed with Putin, perhaps you might send this article to Putin's people, asking if you could be again considered for an interview?

Thank you Scott for your honesty and for taking the high road! My first reaction when hearing about the Tucker Carlson interview was, geez, Scott Ritter should be doing this! So I do understand that bit of jealousy you feel, but I also admire you for looking at the bigger picture and applauding this momentous event. I would love to someday watch the conversation between you and Putin that you envision in this post. Don't sell yourself short, I think many Americans would relish it and learn from it as well!!

I wrote a whole book, "As America Crumbles..." on the topic of wholesale destruction of our nation, and yet, the madness we're witnessing boggles the mind. This is a great article, Scott.

I would love to see the questions you've posed answered too, Scott. I also look forward to listening to the interview.

I've been wondering about all the hate media towards Russia and China over the past ten years, so did some digging. When I started posting about BRICS on Facebook, my account was professionally hacked and five years' worth of my material was deleted. And I'm unable to get back into my account.

And that was over a year ago.

It really is threatening to the elite class to point out anything that doesn't fit their narrow narrative towards these two countries.

I agree, Tucker Carlson is courageous to be doing this.

I never cared much for Tucker back in the 2000's. But he's really come a long way since then. He had some kind of epiphany about the rotten state of mainstream media, realized he was part of the problem, and made some deep changes. I still don't align with all of his platforms, but at least the man is trying to be honest, and he has my respect for that. Anyone who can self-reflect and change themselves during this narcissistic epoch has my respect.

Thank you Scott for a rational and concise commentary on Tucker's venture to Moscow. I had the privilege to spend 3 weeks in Moscow, Leningrad and Novosibirsk in October 1990 on an international delegation for a "people - to - people" meeting with Russian medical scientists and pathologists. My over-all impression related to the warmth and friendliness of individual Russians that we met everywhere as we moved about unimpeded. It distresses me that our taxpayer paid representatives are unable to engage similarly - even if only to negotiate some form of political detente where meaningful dialogue could begin. I am also surprised that with the current media hysteria over Tucker's venture, nobody is mentioning the fascinating interviews with President Putin conducted several years by Oliver Stone.

Well said Scott, I must admit I am coming around to Tucker after previously despising him. If nothing else his courage in standing up to the empire knowing full well he will be obliterated in the MSM and US Govt. I can imagine the pressure will now be overwhelming on Elon Musk to put the clamps down on alternative voices challenging the govt narrative on X. Personally I can't wait to watch it !

For a really interesting interview with Putin by an American, may I recommend the series of interviews with Oliver Stone that aired on cable a few years ago. Two intelligent men in serious and dignified conversation.

Dear Scott, I'm absolutely convinced that you will get your sit-down with Putin in the future and that it will be very enlightening. As you said, this is a different kind of encounter, one that may blow the door open for future discussions. Patience! and thank you for the hard work that you have done. I've been following you since 2002.
