Putin Invades Ukraine - Will & Amala LIVE ft. Dennis Prager

i'm alone at work where will i run where do i go tell me please my god residents of cities across ukraine were out on the streets within minutes of russia's military attack on the country we have to leave our houses what's going on as the ukrainian president declared martial law some residents queued at atm machines and gas stations martial law there will be panic where would i hide the children there are no shelters there is nothing it's an open space where will i go many dragged suitcases with the intention of leaving the country while others who've stayed behind took refuge in underground metro stations some couldn't agree and decided to flex muscle but in the end it's the normal people who don't want war and everyone else who suffers we want to live in peace go to work build our families develop our country we just want a peaceful sky over our heads instead of hiding his rats in holes having no idea what to expect ladies and gentlemen welcome to will and amla live it's been an unfortunate day as we've woken up to the news that russia has indeed invaded ukraine uh and the the country is now under attack and everybody has gone really into a frenzy about this uh commentators from all sides of the aisle coming to bat and saying why they believe this is happening what our uh intention should be in in this uh certain conflict how we should be intervening and uh we've heard bits from the white house now about how we are going to come after russia and sanction them in wake of this attack on ukraine and many people are fearful so we're here to give coverage of this although we i think recognize that we are not your foreign policy experts so we have brought on dennis on the show and we will get into that in in a little bit uh any any opening comments will well i think when we're we're talking about foreign policy and all of this you're going on twitter right now and you're hearing so many things from so many people i mean i'm going on and reading that you know now china's going to invade taiwan or china is going to invade north northeast india these things are going to happen there are secret talks between russia and china right now about this is all part of their grand scheme and you know what's going to happen in eastern europe and the new invasions there and all of this stuff is just this whole situation is very murky i don't think anyone knows what's going to happen i mean there were there were there were many conservative commentators many people saying you know that russia was never going to invade ukraine and i was even myself i felt like i was part of that camp and now we've seen that they have they have gone and they have done it and so what i have to say about this is that first of all much of this could have been avoided much of this could have been avoided if america looks more powerful on the world stage that's number one i mean with our administration with our our government with our military right now i've read a lot about american history now a lot about america and i don't think that america has ever looked weaker to the rest of the world than we look now and so i think that sanctions are a good move many of the ones that are being presented are actually very harsh and i think many of them are very fair and let's go over a best-case scenario of what i think is going to happen not what i think is going to happen but if this was a best-case scenario okay ukraine has 40 million people and so right now russia has invaded ukraine going through through the eastern provinces all this different all these different places and so the best case scenario is that russia gets in maybe donbass you know in ukraine that's that was traditionally russian maybe they do want to be russian it's different but they get into ukraine they take over the the administration they basically change the government into a russian government to a russian state and then the russian military leaves and people in ukraine for the most part can go back to their lives without much suffering that would be the best case scenario because right now it seems like what is putin doing no one really knows what putin is doing is he this is he this evil genius that knows exactly the geopolitical moves that he's trying to make as he moves in or is he stupid and is going in with no plan and is just trying to do this for no reason it's hard to tell right now and that's kind of the whole point is that a lot of this is hard to tell you can give the best case scenario of what we would hope would happen and that'd be the end of it you know and that there's not much suffering and not much bloodshed more than we've already seen but again it's it's very hard to tell it's very hard to tell if putin has any idea what he's doing or if this is all sort of just his ego coming out and trying to take over ukraine for god knows why right and you can get on the internet uh like i did this morning and you will see a thousand different opinions from all different types of people telling you exactly what's happening and and they say it with such confidence we are not going to be the 1001 opinion that you hear today uh we are learning just as everybody else is uh with everything that's going on and keeping a watchful eye on it so i don't think we're going to make any assertions in this however we did decide to bring in dennis frager to get his view of the situation and sort of what he thought was the driving forces behind this and what was going to happen before we get into that interview though i want to make sure you guys are watching on the will and amela live channel when we are done with our show today and in the main segments of our show today we are going to be doing an exclusive q a right there with you guys only on the will and amla live channel so you might as well just switch over there now go ahead subscribe click the notification bell so you're all set up for the q a uh later in the show now we're gonna get i just want to say a couple more things before we get into it uh just you're talking about opinions and stuff i do i have some opinions okay so will does want to give you one more opinion on that here's what i want to say okay when ronald reagan took down the soviet union when he took down the soviet union there were people in the american media talking about you know persian missiles and all this kind of stuff and being totally against ronald reagan there were people at the time at the universities that a lot of the baby boomers were against what ronald reagan had done in the soviet union okay there were a lot of people who are against it and now those same types of people work in the defense department those same types of people work in msnbc they work in the major news organizations they work in defense contracting and so now all these people who have been praying for war are getting exactly what they want okay and i i know you might be hearing things i mean i'm talking to people my family and all sorts of people and we're hearing all these people talk about world war three world war three i'm going to give you my opinion i don't think that world war iii is going to happen because of this i think that this is that this is going to de-escalate i think that people are are really blowing things out of proportion in a lot of ways in terms of america's involvement but so much of this could have been present prevented again uh first of all when it comes to energy that the energy crisis that is going on in europe right now is absolutely terrible and they have treated this as as something that you know they can they can do things to russia and have no consequences but you know i think what was it taylor you said earlier finland gets 90 of their gas from russia yeah it's like 98 98 the rest of the european union gets 35 percent of their natural gas from from uh from russia and so and and these people also these european countries they don't have militaries really right they expect america to come in and defend them in all these things and i think that russia knows that i think that russia knows that if they attack any sort of nato ally they're going to have to deal with america i know that ukraine is in a nato and so it seems like i think this is about this is going to be it again i can't know for certain i'm giving you my opinion reading about it talking to people looking at the news i'm giving you my opinion i don't think that something is going to happen with china and taiwan i mean they'd have to do this huge uh aquatic amphibious invasion of this island i mean i mean the these some of these cities in taiwan have nine million people in them like they're crazy i don't know how they take it over or india i don't see that happening either so i don't see it in my opinion turning into some situation like that i really don't but what is clear from all of this is that america looks weak and that if we want to be a big player on the world stage we need to strengthen our military and make sure that on the world stage we look like a force to be reckoned with and we're not going to be pushed around by people who come and think that they can take advantage of america america is the one country in the world you should never be able to take advantage of we are the greatest country in the world with the greatest military the greatest intelligence the greatest forces we are not a force to be reckoned with but the rest of the world thinks that we are because we have shown up to the table and and made ourselves look weak we've put our cards on the table and shown them that america is is silly and we don't care about these things anymore it's time to bring back a strong america if we do that the rest of this can be prevented walk or speak softly and carry a big stick but we we've abandoned that and we've walked softly and carried a matchstick good job appreciate it no additional opinions from me on this i'm going to leave it to dennis brager who we had on the show today for your viewing pleasure and hopefully for your education here we go ladies and gentlemen welcome i woke up this morning to a news interview being cancelled due to war coverage and i immediately thought what is going on hopped on the internet and found out that russia had invaded ukraine now you're hearing thousands of different opinion opinions on this even among conservative commentators and i for one am no expert in foreign policy i'm i'm comfortable with admitting that at my ripe age of 21 years old so we decided to bring on the show today dennis prager to give us a handle on this situation dennis at baseline most people are hopping onto the internet and seeing this and they're very confused what is going on nobody knows for certain you're not asking obviously what is going on in ukraine what is going on why did russia invade ukraine i think that's what you're asking is that correct yes so uh so you to a certain extent you asked the right guy i i am of the ripe old age number one number two and far more important that's my field uh i speak russian i studied the soviet union as my as my major in at graduate school so even with all of that i don't guarantee that my analysis is accurate i i can't read minds however i think that there is one overriding reason for the invasion and that is vladimir putin's desire to reconstitute the russian empire he uh and and tangentially the soviet union both of which owned ukraine the greater russia is his ambition he feels humiliated after the cold war he was a kgb that's the soviet secret police he was a kgb officer he feels humiliated as a russian as to what happened to russia going from world power feared by every nation as the soviet union to a second-rate or third-rate european almost poor country after the cold war so in light of that i think he wants to reassemble the russian empire and i believe that that's the primary reason other experts believe that historic russian paranoia about being invaded is the issue and the need for buffer zones all around russia they were what happened when napoleon invaded in the 19th century and hitler in the 20th on the unspeakable suffering and mass death among russians has had a a permanent effect on their psyche i don't buy that however [Music] i i buy that it has a permanent effect on their psyche i don't buy that that's the primary reason uh that because you have to be really really paranoid in the in a psychopathological sense to think ukraine will invade russia or hungary will invade russia or poland or latvia or estonia or lithuania i mean those are just a few of the places bordering russia it would be like saying honduras will invade the united states it's now of course we don't have a history of being invaded i fully acknowledge that but i i don't believe that i think it's a factor but i think the primary yearning is to reconstitute the russian empire and the soviet union having said that i know i'm giving you a long answer so forgive me but you asked a big question uh having said all of that i don't understand what his thinking is any more than you do is he going to really digest ukraine a country of 40 million people 35 million of whom hate russia hard to believe yeah i mean in in world war ii when the russians went through ukraine they killed seven million people it was absolutely uh bloodbath in ukraine it was one of the bloodiest places during during the war and so the people many of the people in ukraine really have no love for russia when we were talking about the historical borders and things like that when it comes to to russia and ukraine and all of this do you think that nato's role that nato has any role to play with this with nato's expansion moving more east and russia feeling cornered because of what nato has really done yeah i think that's a legitimate question because people ask well what if mexico had russian arms so there is there is some validity to that and but nobody was really seriously considering ukraine for nato but it it's also a bit bizarre because if russia were france or or germany or the united kingdom we wouldn't give a damn if mexico had their arms because we nobody in america fears a a an english or french invasion of the united states so uh you you have to you have to accept the premise that nato arms threaten russia they don't they don't threaten russia russia threatens nato there is a one-way threat who who have western democracies ever invaded i'm not a big fan of of the german government i'm not a big fan of a lot of the european governments but i mean let's put this in perspective democracies don't invade non-democracies in all of the history of modern wars every war has been between a police state and a free state or two police states there are no wars between free states right when you see when you look at let me ask you this that's something that they might be feeling with nato i mean most of the countries in europe won't even pay the two percent that you know they agreed to pay you have poland that's paying two percent but most of the other ones aren't paying this two percent that they're supposed to pay do you think that makes russia feel threatened when nato essentially is really just the united states in many ways we're the ones that are held accountable for for defending all these countries who won't even defend themselves or even pay the amount that they're supposed to pay it's a rhetorical question uh will and it's a perfectly legitimate one uh the thought that i i'm going to really worry about france or germany today i mean germany yes germany in the 20th century was obviously a terrible threat germany today they wouldn't i'm not sure they would fight if they were invaded that's a basically pacifist country so uh that's why i say and you're saying the same thing i mean let's be let's be real who who should fear whom latvia should fear russia or russia should should fear a latvia in nato which which one i'm i'm curious here dennis because a lot of people are speculating on the internet about what the proper course of action is as far as the united states and our intervention goes is there anything that you advocate for in this in this uh current situation this is the most painful question because i think this could have been avoided if if the united states had enabled europe to get their much of their energy from us which was going to happen and happening under donald trump when we when we went from dependent on others for oil and other natural gas and and to becoming completely independent and having a surplus to give to others that was turned around literally the first day joe biden was president the first thing he did was cancel the pipeline that we had promised canada the xl pipeline and for no reason for no good reason by the way for your viewers there's a great video on the pipeline a five minute video on how utterly safe it is so to a large extent i do believe that the environmentalist lobby made this invasion possible and it's not uh it's not conspiratorial they're not for the invasion but they made it possible because putin thought how much sanctions are they going to really put on me if they depend on me especially germany the richest country in europe or at least on the continent how much pressure will they really put on me if they get most of their energy from me which shouldn't have ever happened they should have gotten it from america right no i mean europe is getting 35 percent of its natural gas from russia and then germany shut down three nuclear power plants they're planning on shutting down three more in 2022 they obviously and they're shutting down a lot of the the the coal power plants in europe too so they are completely dependent on russia you know exactly what you're saying this isn't any sort of conspiracy theory with the environmental lobby and it seems to me like the environmental lobby is working hand in hand with the mainstream media with all of these people talking about this war mongering i mean in in my opinion dennis you can tell me what you think but i think in in no way should we be sending american troops over to ukraine right now with we don't know exactly what's going to happen we have no idea but to me it seems like this is not the time and not the time for america to step in i don't think anybody uh conservative or liberal is is for sending u.s troops but we could have prevented it if america were perceived as strong as it has been since the cold war but uh under the democratic leadership the country's military is much weaker and is perceived as such by our enemies just the fact that i mean there's no offense against the individual but a a transgender admiral it does not induce fear on the part of our enemies it it makes us look like we are more interested in woke than we are in power or the uh the evil i have to use that word of dismissing from the armed forces thousands of terrific individuals from the marines to the air force for not being vaccinated i mean this is not a serious threat to the world and and uh there is a very important rule of life weakness invites bullies that's true on the on on the playground of your kids elementary school and it is true in the world yes exactly right i mean you think our our allies in taiwan are looking at blinking or jake sullivan or any of these people and thinking they have a strong backing behind them i i really don't think so and then you know exactly what you're talking about the military it's it might be somewhat a good thing that you know i'm unvaccinated which means i probably can't get drafted so there are silver linings to many of these oh that is a riot yeah me too i'm not vaccinated i didn't think of that exactly dennis we're going yeah well that's exactly right what about omar uh unvaccinated and i've had a surgery that disqualifies me so i'm good even though they want to throw less women in there i think i'm fine there you go well your blm tattoo might might help you get in oh honestly they might overlook everything just because of that exactly exactly well dennis thank you so much for coming on and giving us some clarity and and to laugh with this because i think not many people have had that have that ability i love you guys and everybody knows that oh thank you dennis we love you too we appreciate it thank you it's nice to have somebody to go to for wisdom in a time like this and dennis is certainly that person so thank you again dennis for being on i'm sure he's had quite a busy day with his show and everybody looks to him for commentary um so let's let's get into some more of the serious videos surrounding this current conflict with ukraine and russia here's a video that's been circulating uh throughout the internet today has 8.3 million views this is a father leaving his family to serve his country in ukraine this is okay let's pause there uh it's it's an unfortunate thing to see things like this and just to know the reality of what it means but i think it's what it means to go to war and i think it's important to to see this because a lot of people sort of sit and they're armchair commentators and have no idea what the true implications of the things they say or the things that they advocate for are and these are the true implications it is fathers leaving families it is not knowing what to do with your kids it is being worried about not only the future of your family but the future of your country uh and it would be easy to sit here and speculate over what people should do and how our country should get involved and what other countries should do and what's evil and what's good uh but this is the reality for people and it's a split second decision that you have to make for your family and your country no exactly and all the politicians you got bill kristol all these types of guys these neocons warhawks war mongers people in defense contracting all want to come on and say we got to go to war we got to go to war we got to be in in afghanistan forever we got to be in the middle east forever we've got to be all over the world forever and it's like well you send your sons then you send your sons and daughters to go and die then or you go and fight yourself right but none of these people are going to do that they don't do that war has real consequences where real people die but these people don't care about those types of consequences people who push this kind of stuff onto us yeah and you know i saw somebody tweet out today you know i forget what his name was i wish i remembered but saying i would never advocate for a war that i would not myself be willing to sign up and go fight in and that's something that people should think about when they when they hop on and go well immediately we need to hop into this conflict and we need to go into ukraine and we need to we need to put ourselves as you know uh this this big player in what could be an ensuing war uh you never think about the fathers that have to leave their children to go and fight you don't think about the families that are torn apart you don't think about having to to make these split-second decisions about what to do with not only your life but the lives of those around you and your community and that's what war is like so it's so easy to sit from where we sit and go absolutely this is this is what we need to do we need to go and fight we need to go in battle we need to go put our sons and daughters now uh in in this fight just think about it yeah exactly and you know what what european powers you know they're going to talk about we need america to to come and help us and be these people and it's like why why i don't get it i don't get why america has to come and foot the bill for all of these other people why america has to be this is something that you know i think prageru in some ways would disagree with me on dennis and things but you know this is just my opinion that i don't know that america needs to be this world police in these types of conflicts right i don't know why if these other countries in europe aren't paying their two percent for nato why we are still in this horrible deal and why we are not energy independent we should be energy independent and have these other countries they should be having to take care of themselves in most ways right there is a there is a legitimate threat when it was world war ii and there is good versus evil that you are fighting for and things like that but when you're just getting pulled into wars in this this this this warhawk propaganda i mean i don't know why we're getting involved in all these things again just like you said these things have real consequences that that that for years and years paleo cons have been right about all this stuff and write about all this stuff you know and now it's coming and kicking us in the face and we're very detached from it i mean uh almost i think thank goodness for the the uh the presence of social media in this time so that you can see and sort of be a little bit more connected to the things that you're saying because i think in a different day and age uh people would have just been able to say oh yeah let's go to war and you'd never see it you've never seen ounce of what's actually happening to the people on the ground there uh now you are somewhat inundated with it but you do get a good look of what actual war looks like i mean videos this morning out of neighborhoods in ukraine where little children are are seeing uh you know fighter planes come and drop missiles in in their uh neighborhoods it's it's an insane thing to see uh and but it attaches you to the things that you choose to commentate on and the things that you choose to advocate for so you can see the real world effects of the things that you're saying and the words that you put out into the world yeah 100 and what are some of the words that we're hearing right now oh well they're blaming this crisis on conservatives they're blaming this crisis on people like tucker carlson like people like me like people like pedro gonzalez they're talking about us and saying oh we're we're shills for putin we want putin to win this whole thing that's what they're saying and that this whole crisis came about because of conservative voices right you tweeted that thing this morning amla yeah jank yuger uh coming on and talking about you know people like like me love putin because he's a white nationalist yeah here's here's his tweet here uh the guy from young turks uh right wing doesn't love putin just because he's an authoritarian tyrannical leader they love him because he is a white authoritarian leader race has become more important than even nationality they've turned on democracy and now even america in favor of a white warlord and thank goodness he was ratioed to hell for for this statement by people who are liberal and conservative it's such a ridiculous statement right listen i might get some some flack for this but there are parts of america where it's pretty terrible right now with mandates and and leftism and what they've done and a lot of people in the mainstream media the left they hate putin because putin and russia it's a christian orthodox nationalist society and they hate that they hate people being proud of their nation they hate that so as soon as we come on and say hey maybe we question what's going on in this region a little bit we don't know what's happening right like is this really their land whatever and they say oh we're shills for putin and then we are these white nationalist types of people but it's all ridiculous all of it's ridiculous you know the fact that i can see something in russia and say yes there are proud people they're proud of their nation they are a christian nation doing a lot of things that america is not doing and say that you know not all of that is so terrible then of course you're this shill for putin and you want him to go and invade ukraine and kill people of course not it's it's a ridiculous comparison to make and there's so much deviation among among all conservatives on this issue and what we should and should not do just go on go on any social media platform and scroll for a couple minutes and look at all the different commentators that you listen to they disagree on several points on how we should be involved in this and it goes to show that maybe the information that we have surrounding uh the geopolitical issues in this country is is not it's not clear as day uh maybe there's blurred lines here maybe we're getting faulty information and maybe we are getting that faulty information with an agenda i won't go into the current administration's uh different tie-ins with everything that's happening right now but you should question everything and that's why i'm very very hesitant and will continue to be very hesitant to make any statements on how this should go because clearly we are not getting truthful information we have not been getting truthful information for years so who is to say that we're getting it now yeah yeah i'm it's all that i'm saying i'm fine with making some predictions i'm not going to say that everything i say is going to happen because we always look for best case scenarios and then some person some in the media says something triggers another event and then and then that happens but i will tell you at at the level of care that the mainstream media and nbc uh uh msnbcp any of these people the the big deal that they're making about this russia ukraine crisis and what's happening there versus making no big deal whatsoever about what's happening in canada with people's bank accounts being frozen democracy being destroyed in canada martial law being employed in canada how they say not a peep about anything like that i think it tells you a lot it tells you a lot okay because canada is supposed to be this democracy oh canada loves black lives matter canada has has pride parades it's a great place to be right so when they sanction their own citizens that's fine but as soon as you have someone in russia who is this nationalist christian this type of no love for putin but this is what their nation really represents then of course it's this this horrible thing in the mainstream media all has to come out in arms against it so it just goes to show you what the priorities of the media are and how they have turned people into thinking that this is this world war three scenario and that american people should go and die for it and that america is supposed to be all over europe defending this i mean to me it seems very obvious what is is going on what why it has led to this point what is going to happen no one knows yeah who yeah no i have no speculation on what is going to happen i do have some uh extra videos out of st petersburg in moscow as uh russian citizens are not happy with the current invasion of ukraine here are some anti-war protests that are happening in russia [Applause] so that's thousands of people congregated in saint petersburg here is a video out of moscow [Music] and the police going to stop these protests and saint petersburg uh is the birthplace of vladimir putin so uh goes to show you that even the people from his own birth city are not too happy with the actions that he's taken against ukraine uh and there's clearly a significant amount of divide within uh russia's own country so what is going on and what's going to happen saint yeah saint petersburg is the most beautiful place in russia do you know why no why it's built by christians it's uh the best architecture the best way of life in russia is in st petersburg and uh it's a it's a different type of culture it's just a fun building's beautiful but yes yes saint petersburg beautiful beautiful place versus you go to moscow oh my goodness it's just sadness uh so we also have one more act of protest here alina kovalskya i hope i pronounce her name right the director of moscow's state theater and cultural center has announced her resignation in protest against the invasion of ukraine stating it's impossible to work for a murderer and collect a salary from him she writes and she wrote this publicly curious to see what happens to this young woman after posting that i imagine not anything good but very very brave act to say you know i'm against the way that this government is responding to the the current geopolitical issues and i'm going to resign because i don't want to get a salary from people who are willing to do this to other people so very brave very brave to post that publicly and good for you

woman by the name of anna lynn mccord made a poem that she addressed to president vladimir putin this this poem this video is now amassed 7.8 million views since it was posted earlier today and here's what she had to say to mr vladimir putin dear president vladimir putin i'm so sorry that i was not your mother if i was your mother you would have been so loved held in the arms of joyous light never would the stories plight the world unfurled before our eyes a pure demise of nations sitting peaceful under a night sky if i was your mother the world would have been warm so much laughter and joy and nothing would harm i can't imagine the stain the soul-stealing pain that the little boy you must have seen and believed and the formulation of thought quickly taught that you lived in a cruel unjust world is this why you now decide no one will get the best of you is this why you do not hide nor away shy from taking back the world it was it because so early in life all that strife wrapped your little body with fear do we have to wash your eyes no please no please make it stop that's one minute into the two and a half minute poem uh again this woman was ratioed hard for for posting this during uh this this time 7.8 million views just today 7.8 million views just today it's been hours since this was posted um everything can be solved with love it's very freudian you know a guy goes and and bombs and sends missiles to another country it must be mommy issues yes right right very very freudian yes not a very good analysis on this no but yet so confident it's the confidence for me right she live in l.a she must live in l.a probably because only that crystal's told her to do this today yeah exactly my tarot cards told me that this is what i was supposed to do today yeah yeah this is all you can only have this type of thinking in a very leftist insulated place where you've never had a problem to deal with in your life yeah i don't know her bio says actress human rights activist founder the love storm so that makes sense anti-human trafficking ambassador so she's doing some good things uh i could see where i'm trying to like give grace i could see where somebody
