[GUEST] - SCOTT HORTON - Will Ukraine’s Nazi Problem Blowback on the US

[GUEST] - SCOTT HORTON - Will Ukraine’s Nazi Problem Blowback on the US Scott Horton returns for a riveting deep dive into the Nazi threat emerging in Ukraine, where Azov Battalion commander Andrey Beletsky stands poised to become a major political force in the war's aftermath. Scott meticulously breaks down Beletsky's extremist ideology, showing how Western media is actively whitewashing his Nazi past while he builds what Scott calls "the International Nazi" – a movement recruiting far-right extremists from across Europe and beyond. The conversation takes a fascinating turn when examining the shifting global balance of power. As John Bolton laments, Trump's heavy-handed approach to India has backfired spectacularly, pushing Modi into closer alignment with Russia and China. This realignment, symbolized by recent meetings of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, represents a fundamental challenge to American hegemony. The BRICS alliance has created economic alternatives allowing nations to circumvent Western sanctions, giving mid-sized powers unprecedented breathing room from U.S. dominance. Scott delivers a masterful analysis of Russiagate, describing it as a "moral crime" against both Trump and American democracy. He traces how intelligence agencies conspired to frame Trump for treason, effectively preventing him from pursuing his desired Russia policy. Most significantly, Scott connects these dots to show how Russiagate directly contributed to the Ukraine war – had the manufactured scandal never happened, Trump might have resolved the Ukrainian civil war through diplomacy, potentially preventing the larger conflict that erupted in 2022. Throughout this conversation, Scott demonstrates why his voice has become so influential in challenging interventionist foreign policy. His meticulous research and ability to connect seemingly disparate geopolitical events provide crucial context for understanding today's complex global landscape. For anyone seeking to understand the dangerous consequences of American empire and the forces shaping our world, this discussion offers essential insights you won't find in mainstream coverage.
