TRUNEWS with Rick Wiles - Putin: West’s “Economic Blitzkrieg” Meant to “Cancel Russia”...Compares Sanctions to Anti-Jewish Pogroms

Episode Date: March 16, 2022

Today on TruNews, host and founder Rick Wiles dissects the propaganda spewing from media outlets on the Russia - Ukraine conflict. President Putin compared the West to Nazi Germany pre-WWII, saying they were banding together against Russia the same way Nazi Germany did in the 1930s. Similarly to those times, He claimed that Russia's culture and unique way of life are what is really in danger, and they must face that threat and "protect themselves from the Western fifth column." - willing Western media organizations. Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart. Airdate 3/16/22.

This is True News, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God. I'm Rick Wiles. Russian President Vladimir Putin today addressed the Russian people on television regarding the war in Ukraine and Western sanctions on their country. The speech is being widely reported in Western newspapers in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Europe, Australia, New Zealand. And the Russian president's remarks, in my opinion, have been greatly distorted. When you read the English translation of Mr. Putin's speech, you see a

totally different picture of what he said today. Bottom line is that he compared the United States to Nazi Germany and accused the West of attempting to carry out an economic blitzkrieg against his country and to cancel Russia. We're going to take a look at Mr. Putin's speech and also give you some updates on other things that are taking place in Ukraine and also Israel. So let's get into this. Doc Burkhardt is here with me. Yes, sir. We've got a lot to say. Jerusalem Post, Putin says West is trying to dismantle Russia, compares them to Nazis. Once again, Doc, the Russian president bringing up the N-word, Nazis.

And this is not the first time. The American newspapers are trying to say that this is a propaganda ploy. tell you doc vladimir putin has been insinuating that the united states is modern nazi germany and he's been doing that for almost 10 years yes and obviously there are nazis in ukraine there's no doubt about that they're self-proclaimed nazis in uh ukraine and so uh regarding the reason you can't say it right but you know but it's still true whether you can say it or not it's still true uh regarding which is which is really the indicative of the this uh uh age that we're living in of where if you speak truth you're shouted down right and told that you're you're delusional when you're looking at it and you're going no it's right here in front of me the people who are delusional are are the ones who are doing these things but if you speak it and you show the

evidence they call you uh delusional uh conspiratorial all kinds of names a cheerleader for Russia whatever it might be and yet the evidence is right there in front of you and you can show them the evidence that's how deep the West is into this uh Nazi mindset which Which says up is down, black is white, good is bad, bad is good. And if you challenge their delusion, they come after you. It's really bizarre. But we saw it with COVID. Yes. And once again, we made this argument before.

The same people that were trying to sell you COVID are trying to sell you the Ukraine war right now. That's right. So regarding that Jerusalem Post article, whether you just saw there, the reason for Western sanctions, Putin compared the West to Nazi Germany pre-World War II, saying they were banding together against Russia the same way Nazi Germany did in the 1930s and similarly to those times he claimed that Russia's culture and unique way of life are what is really in danger and they must face the threat and protect themselves from the Western fifth column now Rick help our audience understand what does he mean by the Western fifth column he's talking about propaganda, mind manipulation, the news media, everything that an enemy would use, you know, psychological warfare. That would best say it, psychological warfare, PSYOPs.

He's saying to protect Russia from psyops because that's the western regimes are the world's best experts in psyops they perfected it but where did they learn it they imported it from the Nazis from the Nazis after World War II well once again President Putin is invoking those words Nazis but he's also invoking other words related to the Nazis here's uh article from Toss uh the failure of the uh West economic blitzkrieg on Russia and he called it an economic blitzkrieg it says in the article the West was unable to arrange an economic blitz Krieg against Russia and now the world is witnessing the end of the dominance of Western countries in politics and economics.

This was announced on Wednesday by Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting on measures of socioeconomic support for the regions. Russia, the head of state, stressed has enough resources so that it does not have to print money and its economy will definitely adapt to new realities. In the near future, social payments to Russians will be increased, businesses will be given maximum freedom, and the regions will be given additional powers. And it says, obviously, the ongoing events draw a line under the global dominance of Western countries in both politics and the economy. Moreover, they call into question the economic model that has been imposed on developing countries in recent decades

and indeed on the whole world. Let's keep that up for just a moment there. Rick, this isn't just a war over Ukraine anymore, is it? No. It's a war for the new world order. The new new world order. Right. What he's saying is the old new world order, which is still in existence,

it has been here since World War II, since post-World War II. He's saying that it is coming to an end and a new order is arriving. So many people are waiting on the New World Order to arrive and they don't realize

they've been living in the new world order and this thing that you've been fighting and opposing and resisting that's the new world order what does the new world order look like it looks like mass mandates vaccine passports that's the new world order and it's been here for a long, long time. So the Russian president is saying that ongoing events are now drawing a line under the global dominance of Western countries and calling into question the economic model that the West has imposed on smaller countries in recent decades. And what is that model? It's the idea of the Western

welfare state to give tons of money or military aid to developing countries in order to manipulate them, manipulate them politically. It's just, it's a new form of colonialism. It is. We'll have more of Vladimir Putin's comments on that. I want to go back to that first quote, which is our number four. The economic blitzkrieg part. Yeah. Putin said the West failed to carry out an economic blitzkrieg.

Well, blitzkrieg is a German... Lightning strike. Yes, a lightning strike is a a familiar term by the nazis in world war ii so they would carry out a military blitzkrieg overwhelming force that would just rise up and overwhelm the opposing armies. He said the West tried to carry out a financial blitzkrieg. Right. How did that happen?

Well, what he's saying, Doc, is actually confirming what I speculated two weeks ago. And that is that when the West rolled out their sanctions and then immediately, like dominoes falling, Western corporations shut down their operations in Russia. McDonald's closed their restaurants and Coca-Cola closed their bottling plants and Visa, MasterCard shut off the credit cards and just one after another. They were canceling Russia. That was an economic blitzkrieg. But what I came to realize two weeks ago was that this sequence of events didn't happen spontaneously. It was planned. It was planned long ago, in advance. What they needed was a trigger mechanism. They needed Putin to do something to justify the economic blitzkrieg. Would you consider that Ukraine was the bait in order to draw Russia into a conflict to implement this economic blitzkrieg? Yes. So, you know, we've been watching for a long time

the West trying to get Russia to fight. And that's what it appeared is they want a war in Ukraine. And I was thinking they wanted a war between NATO and Russia. But what they really wanted was to entrap Putin in quicksand, to get him to the line and then that he would be in quicksand in Ukraine and that quicksand would be this massive economic blitzkrieg that they would roll out in one to two weeks to shut down the the Russian. To conquer Russia without firing a shot. That's right.

I mean, they're seizing the assets of wealthy Russians. Well, some people might say, oh, I don't care. But the rule of law has ended. I mean, if you can seize the private property of somebody from another country simply because their passport is from a country you don't like, then your private property is not safe either. That's right. They could just as easily do it to you as well.

And they did it in Canada. And who did it? The Nazis? Yes, the new Nazis. The Freeland? Whose grandfather was a Ukrainian Nazi propaganda chief for Hitler? And she's the one who seized the

assets of the Canadian truckers. I don't know how many American patriots are connecting the dots about what's happening. Just put together what happened in Canada with the truckers and put that with what they just did to the russians it's the same thing they seize private property simply because you oppose the nazi regime yes your bank account your card, your ability to buy, everything.

And Putin is saying it failed. And because it failed, now it's going to boomerang on you. And your system is going to unravel. And we saw it yesterday with the Chinese and the Saudis. Yes. So it's starting to unravel. It's actually boomeranging on the West where now the Saudis are refusing to take Joe Biden's phone calls unheard of that the leaders of other countries will not answer the phone of the president United States. going to move towards the Chinese, start selling Saudi oil in Chinese Yuan. And it's now the beginning of the unraveling of the U.S. dollar. And what Putin is saying is you brought it upon yourself. Right. Well, we've heard Vladimir Putin use the word Nazis and blitzkrieg. He uses

another word today as well. President Putin compares the fight against everything Russian with anti-Semitic pogroms in Nazi Germany. Oh, boy. He's opening a can of worms now. Yes, he has. So Russian President Vladimir Putin compared the current struggle against everything Russian abroad with anti-Semitic pogroms in Nazi Germany. All the verbal tinsel about political correctness, the inviolability of private property, freedom of speech, all this flew off overnight. Even the Olympic principles were trampled on. They did not hesitate to settle scores with the Paralympic athletes. This is such a sport outside of politics, the head of state said at a meeting on social measures,

economic support of the regions of the Russian Federation. It just begs a direct analogy with the anti-Semitic pogroms that the Nazis staged in Germany in the 30s of the last century. And then their henchmen from many European countries who joined Hitler's aggression against our country during the Great Patriotic War, the Russian leader believes. That's the quote from Toss there. Rick, you know, you get to reading information like this, and it reminds me of our visit to St. Petersburg, where we heard Vladimir Putin speak to various world leaders. And what came to my attention as we were reading that particular quote there,

is Russia planning to finish World War II now? They offered to settle it at that meeting. Yes. I wasn't even aware that the war was still unsettled. In their mind, it was still going on. And based upon what we're seeing here today, it appears Vladimir Putin is fighting the end of World War II. Russia is still fighting the Nazis. Yes, you're right.

In their mind, they're still fighting the Nazis. And they're not going to give up. Their survival is at stake. And for the Russians, it's not World War II. For the Russians, it's the Great Patriotic War. They were fighting for the survival of Russia America we uh we didn't have we didn't have German troops in America but the Russians did yes the Russians had Germans on their soil so they there was fighting on Russian soil against the Nazis and tens of millions of Russians died.

Not hundreds of thousands, tens of millions. And so from Vladimir Putin's perspective, and we've drawn on this before, Germany lost the war, but the Nazis won the war. And so as we see in this article from Daily Mail here, Putin said the West's attempt to have global dominance is coming to an end and it's trying to cancel Russia. And he makes the argument that all these things that are happening up over the past few weeks, you know, this was a plan. They were looking for an opportunity to move on Russia, but that this is not just merely a battle over some territory in some second-class European nation or anything like that. This is a fight for the control of the world and who's going to dominate the world moving forward.

Rick, we have a soundbite of Vladimir Putin, of course, translated in English, where he speaks about this challenge against the current Global order as it stands and where it's going to lead in the future and we have data from international organizations that show that social problems even in the leading Western countries have exacerbated in recent years there is more inequality there is a bigger chasm between poor and rich we see more and more racial and ethnic conflicts this myth about western society about this so-called golden billion is getting destroyed now the entire planet has to pay for the ambitions of the west for their attempts by any means to preserve third domination in the world that is slipping away different

when you watch Putin and you read English translations or hear an English translation it's totally different than what you hear on American news television networks and read in newspapers because they paint him as mentally unstable right foaming at the mouth you know rabbit a madman but you listen to him and he's quite reserved and calm and presenting his country's position on the issues of the world. And he's not calling anybody names. You don't see the Russians calling the Americans the kind of names that the American news organizations call him. The Western news, I mean, it is vicious.

Yes. It is absolutely vicious. You oppose their regime and they come after you. And I know, you know, I've tasted it. I know what that's like. But it's the way they deal with dissent. Nobody can oppose them. You know, the Bible asks the question about the Antichrist, who can make war with the beast? And this is what we're seeing right now on the earth this the rise of this global power that nobody can confront nobody can take it on yeah it's too big it's too powerful you're right so john john the

revelator is writing that he's had these visions and he writes those words who can who can make war with the beast john himself was overwhelmed by what he saw in the vision of what was going on. That monster is so big and powerful. John couldn't imagine anybody having the strength to fight it. Now, in addition to Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Zelensky also gave a speech today. He's on his Zoom tour. Yes. and so he also spoke with Lester Holt today as well in his conversation with Lester Holt. He said World War III has already started or may have already started, but that this war has the whole of civilization at stake, he's saying, and said that to Lester Holt. President Zelensky spoke to a joint session of Congress today and all everybody was

there. So and he brought out invoked 9-11, Pearl Harbor. And Ricky did ask for a no fly zone today. And so he is continue on. Here is a clip of president zielinski ukrainian president zielinski it's amazing rick how uh ukraine is getting bombed uh you know uh they're fighting and everything and but man they have great wi-fi they do so yeah they do so here's uh president zielinski addressing a joint session of the u.s congress remember pearl harbor terrible morning of december 7 1941 when U.S. Congress. 2001, коли злочин спробував звернутися в свої міста, в індепендентні території, в битві, коли нерозбиті люди були атаковані з повітря, атаковані з повітря, так, як ніхто не чекав, так, як ніхто не чекав,

і ви не могли зупинитися. Ви не могли зупинитися. Наша держава відчувається щодня, expected it. You could not stop it. Our country experience the same every day right now at this moment every night for three weeks now. And he went on in his address to U.S. Congress once again to press them. We basically we need planes and we need a no-fly zone over Ukraine. And it seems like every day, more and more people, more and more political leaders here in the U.S. are leaning in that direction, which, at least from my perspective, the day that happens, the day we implement or we somehow work out a deal to move MiGs into Ukraine, that starts the fight.

If we implement a no-fly zone, we have NATO pilots up in the air getting shot down. That's full-on war. It is. But it seems like they are, I hate to use the word, but they're hell-bent on getting this war started. That they want a direct conflict now. Because nothing else is crushing Russia. The economic sanctions aren't working against them. No, and the Western Rothschild-controlled banking system is imploding.

They need a new economic system for the world. And they have to burn down the old one. And they need a war. They need something to justify, to explain why the world was changed. And so they need this war right now. And they don't care. They don't care what happens to you and me. The super elite, they believe they're going to survive it. Yes. They have bunkers. They have their places they're going to go and hide.

They're not worried about you and me. So for the average American citizen who's watching me, and we have people all over the world, so but I'm talking primarily to Americans. And, you know, if you watch any of the news channels, any of the newspapers, whatever, wherever you're getting your news, everything is Ukraine. Yes. And we're talking about it right now. But how ukraine affect you

think about it what what products do we get from ukraine well just not only that doc but ukraine's political problems why is it my business it's not my business. I mean, I don't want to see anybody hurt. I don't want to see war. But it's not my business. Right. We're in this mess because the West wanted Russia to fight.

They goaded them. They prodded them, not for days and not for weeks, but for years. Right. They prodded them not for days and not for weeks, but for years. They prodded them. Why are our leaders in the West so determined to fight with everybody? Everywhere we go, there are wars. We're selective about it, though. For instance, right now, going on in Yemen right now, the Yemenis are getting pounded right now by the Saudis. Yes. Dying by the day. There are tens of thousands of people have died in Yemen.

But does anyone see that on the news? Does anyone see the massacre? Why? Because right now we like Saudi Arabia. Right now we're friendly towards Saudi Arabia, friendly, if the phone calls ever pick back up again. But we favor Saudi Arabia right now. We're not in opposition to them. So, Doc, I saw before coming out here, I saw an article online, Ukrainian citizens being taught to fight, fight the Russians, just average citizens. Dads, moms, grandmas, everybody. Just the people on the street being taught to fight. And so there was a photograph of combat training inside a building and the instructor, he had his face covered. The instructor, he has his face covered. How much? Oh, I can't bet. What do you think the chances are he's Ukrainian? He might be from somewhere else,

from out of the country, let's say. So the United States and other Western nations are sending in military advisors to train Ukrainian citizens how to go out on the street and get shot. Yes. Because somebody given a couple hours of training and you're going to send them out against the Russian army? Yeah, and I read an article the other day. But the point is, the West is there. The Western countries are up to their eyeballs in this fight. Sure they are. They're handing out weapons to ordinary civilians.

They're handing out weapons to criminals. They're releasing criminals from prison and giving them weapons and said go fight but you know what what happens the moment you hand a military weapon to a civilian you just made them a soldier you made a soldier and you made and you also made them a target yes that's that's where i'm going doc so the west doesn't care that these people get slaughtered what they what they do is they turn it into a news story right russians shoot granddad grandma right mo the west gave a gun to grandma and said go out there and try to shoot those russians they don't care about they do not care these people are heartless they're just there's this lust for power.

And I don't know what it is, what's happened to our country that we've become so bloodthirsty. But this country has become bloodthirsty. God condemned the Israelites. He said Jerusalem is filled with blood. There's no justice. Your judges are corrupt. Right. It was the condemnation of God on the Israelites that their corruption included their violence.

Well, think about King David. What was the reason why King David was not allowed to build the temple for the Lord? Because he had bloody hands. That's right. The Lord said that to him. You have too much violence in your life, David. I can't allow you to build the temple because you building the temple would be an endorsement of your violence. That's right. So God takes it very seriously, obviously. And so God is a a god of peace he's also a god of war but his war yeah but his war right uh he desires peace after all he sent the prince of peace to declare peace declare the war over between god and man god wants peace you know how to people say well that doesn't make sense god's a god of peace, and yet he's a God of war.

Here's the explanation. Law enforcement officers, the correct title for them is peace officer. Right. That's the correct title. You send a law enforcement officer in to restore peace. Right. enforcement officer in to restore peace right and sometimes the law enforcement officer has to take out his baton and beat somebody's head in order to restore peace right it's not that the officer wanted to do it but he was compelled to do it because the lawbreaker was so violent and so

rebellious that the only thing to restore order was to break some of his bones. That's how you explain this. So the law enforcement officer isn't looking for the war, isn't looking for the fight, but doesn't run from it. He has to take care of it, right? And so man is so rebellious and so violent, so bloodthirsty, that God has to intervene in these things and restore order. What the American people are not thinking about right now, and if you read any of the religious

prophecy sites right now, oh, they're just hyperventilating. It's Gog and Magog and all this stuff, you know, this is Bible prophecy. It's all being fulfilled. What they don't think about is this, that Vladimir Putin may be God's whip in his hand. Right. To whip and chastise the United States of America and the West. They better be careful because he just might have the favor of the Lord on him right now

to bring about justice, God's justice against the United States of America. This is a bloody nation. We have sown war and revolution and bloodshed all over the world for decades. And it's this ruling class in America that's doing it. The ruling class of this country is doing it. And then they pull on the patriotic strings of the American people. They touch them in the heart on patriotism and they

say, you know, if you're a patriot, you'll support our killing. You will support our assassinations. If you're a patriot, you will support our revolutions. Those of us who consider ourselves patriots, we have to stop being manipulated this way. You're being manipulated. You have to stop allowing them to manipulate you. The same people who back in 2001, after 9-11, they told us the Muslims did it. No, they did it. The Muslims didn't bring down three buildings in New York City. Yes, three. Three.

No, the global elite did. They detonated the charges in those buildings. Those buildings didn't implode by themselves. One building wasn't even hit by a plane and it fell down nobody talked and if you even bring it up you're conspiracy theorists yes but the point is those people immediately after 9 11 then used the news media to and and a lot of religious groups in the united states and they they told the american people muslims are evil they want to kill you they they hate your freedom how many times every night did i hear sean hannity say the muslims attacked america because they hate our freedom they hate freedom they don't hate america's freedom they hate our freedom. They hate freedom. They don't hate America's freedom.

They hate our foreign policy. Because their foreign policy is killing them. Yes, we're bombing Muslim countries. And that's why they're angry at us. Because the Zionists have control of American foreign policy. But Sean Hannity would go on Fox News night after night. We have to go there and bomb. We have to bomb those Muslim countries.

He was spreading the hatred for the Zionists to get the American people, get their patriotism fired up to hate Muslims. Look, I fell into it too. I was as shocked as everybody by what happened to this country. And I regret that I ever went down that road. And then after a few years, I began to wake up to it and realize, wait a minute, there's something

wrong with this narrative. There's just something wrong with this narrative. And then I came to realize that we had been indoctrinated by the ruling class in this country to hate muslims to kill muslims to bomb muslims who stands to gain only one one group zionists right that's the only group that stands to gain by making the american people hate muslims and arabs and want to bomb them and attack them we've been doing it now for 20 years in the Middle East. Here's what I'm telling you. The same people that put that stuff in our minds after 9-11 are now doing it with Russia.

They're telling you, hate Russians, kill Russians, kill Putin, bomb Russia, nuke them, do something against them. It's the same people, the same propaganda. And they're getting people fired up to go to war. And a lot of us are going to die in this war. But the globalists don't care. They actually want depopulation. They're happy.

Hey, a billion people got wiped out of war. Things are going great. Because if you wipe people out, you wipe debt out, right? You sure do. And you get rid of useless eaters that they don't want on the planet. They want to own the planet for themselves. Their plan is to have as few humans living on the planet and robots doing all the work so that the super elite can have total leisure, a hedonistic decadent lifestyle where they just exist for the purpose of their own pleasure no work no responsibilities uh no um little peasant

people around them that share the planet with they have the whole planet to themselves and the robots are taking care of everything automating all the work that has to be that's the plan that's where they're going long range so a war that takes out a billion people that actually serves their purpose they're not worried about that at all so be careful about the propaganda that you're absorbing in your head right now look we're saints we're children of the Most High. Our citizenship is in heaven. And we have to think like our king thinks. And I don't sense anything coming from my king in heaven telling me, Rick, you need to hate the Russians and you need to pick up a gun and go kill Russians. Because that's the message that they're sending. That's what they want the

American people to believe. You have to hate them and you have to be prepared to fight them. And this is coming straight from the pit of hell. God's people should not be manipulated to hate anybody. Amen. That's right. We're not to be manipulated to hate anybody. And the message right now is to hate Russians. But the Russians are in Ukraine because the West provoked them for years to get this fight going. And the Russians finally came to the place where they said, our survival's at stake. They're going to put nukes in Ukraine. And it's three minutes from Ukraine to Moscow. And Putin can't even get out of bed. If they woke him up and said, there's a nuke on its way,

he's got three minutes to get him out of bed and get him to a bunker. It's not going to happen. Right. That's why they're, that's why they were forced to act. But this is not what you're hearing in the news. You're just hearing that the Russians are crazy. They want war. They want, they want to take the land of Ukraine. They're not after Ukraine. They've got lots of land. Yes. They just want an agreement with Ukraine that Ukraine will not join NATO, will not put military equipment and troops in NATO,

and they want Zelensky to stop killing the Russian-speaking Ukrainians in Donetsk. Yes. Because every day since 2014, they've been killing them. And there's no media coverage of it. It's been going on now, Doc. What, eight years? Eight years. And yet there's no coverage because the West doesn't want to hear about it.

It doesn't serve their purpose. Where did we leave off? Well, in the speech to U.S. Congress today, Zelensky proposed the creation of a new international structure. They do that every time, Rick. We've got to have a new organization,

a new way to make war. So he's proposing a creation of a new international structure, a union of responsible countries. Well, I'm not surprised by this, Doc. I've mentioned this many times. After World War I, the globalists gave us the League of Nations. Right.

After World War II, they gave us the United Nations. Right. World War III has started. And Zelensky, the zionist is telling us there will be a new international structure the un will disappear so in the these remarks and pay attention here folks of what he said here the president ukraine volodymyr zielinski speaking before the u.s congress proposed the creation of a new international structure. Now, remember, his country is getting pounded to pieces right now, but he's already thinking ahead.

This is a union of responsible countries. We propose to create an alliance of responsible countries that will have the strength and ability to stop conflicts and provide all necessary assistance within 24 hours, he said. That sounds like a global army. A global army, a global police force. Right. To immediately stop conflicts within 24 hours. Because the League of Nations didn't have that. And the U.N. has peacekeeping forces, but they're not an aggressive, rapid response force by any means. And there is talk is talk doc this week of sending un peacekeepers to ukraine right but they're they're not they're not oriented towards combat they're

usually are oriented towards sex trafficking in various third world countries and so now that you brought it up and that is the history of them. That is true. Some of the most prolific rapes have happened where UN blue helmets have gone. But here it is once again. So you already see they drip out a little bit of the agenda to you to get you primed, to get you ready for what's coming ahead. Well, when you think a guy that's running a country that's being pounded by the Russian army, would a new UN be what's on his mind today? It would be if that's part of the agenda. Yeah, but if you were not... Of course not. I mean, if you're hiding in a bunker somewhere and they're blowing things up all over the place, you're thinking, hey, we're going to keep this call really short. We're not going to be here long.

Doc, where's he getting his internet? That's my question. And, Rick, if you listen to any of the morning shows, CNN, Bloomberg, Faux News, all of them, they're talking to all these different members of the Ukrainian parliament, all of them. I mean, dozens of them. And they have the best Wi--fi they have better wi-fi than I do in my office out here and so but nobody their calls don't drop out uh the video never drops out or anything like that I'm just thinking you know they're surrounded by Russians but they have the best wi-fi in the in the world right now maybe they're calling calling from Langley. They may well be.

It doesn't really sound like they're in a war zone, does it? No, it doesn't. President Biden was caught on a remark made today. This is reported by CNBC. Biden says Russian leader Putin is a war criminal for the attacks in Ukraine. Now, this steps things up a little bit because it's not simply a matter of a conflict between russia and ukraine now where president biden is actually pointing this is that once this is over they plan on putting putin on trial for war crimes

that's where they're they're headed with it. So Trump and Putin. Yes. Trump will be on trial as an insurrectionist and Putin on trial as a war criminal. So he was kind of caught on... Who can make war with the beast? President Biden was caught on kind of a hot mic moment today. Let's kind of watch this. Oh, It was really quick and everything, but a lot of the media outlets picked up on that and ran with it today. Who does he think the first lady is? Did you see that one the other day? Yes.

Yeah. Yeah. He doesn't know what's going on. Well, Joe Biden didn't know who the president was. He called Kamala Harris the president last week. Well, maybe he does know who the president is. You know, President Biden's not able to get his Build Back a Better package passed, but they were able to get a funding of the government passed yesterday,

including over $13 billion for new lethal aid for Ukraine. Where did that money come from? My pocket. Not really. Your grandchildren's pocket. Well, yeah, you're right. Because we don't have it. Washington doesn't have the money right now.

They're borrowing it from our grandkids. You're absolutely right. They passed these bills to spend this money, and they don't even have the money right now. They're borrowing it from our grandkids. You're absolutely right. They pass these bills to spend this money, and they don't even have the money. How about a balanced budget? Just one time. Let's see a balanced budget. Come on, Rick. Now you're really living in a fantasy world, aren't you?

Well, what does my $13 billion out of my grandkids pocket buying me? Well, Daily Mail reports just a few of the pieces of lethal aid that we're providing to Ukraine. This isn't all of it, folks. Daily Mail reporting the latest batch 5 Mi-17 helicopters, 2,600 Javelin anti-armor systems, 600 Stinger anti-aircraft systems, 70 v's 40 million rounds of ammunition that's almost as much as homeland security has rick uh and so uh this article from daily mail goes and gives a complete breakdown of just the tip of the iceberg of the amount of lethal aid that we've provided to ukraine it by no means uh is an exhaustive list at all because we've been pumping uh armament into ukraine now for almost 20 years so um biden is getting us deeper into a war with

russia this is not going to have a happy ending. And after the nuclear war takes place, those who survive it are going to say, why did we not stop it? We knew it was going to become a nuclear war. Why didn't we stop these madmen? But after the war, if you survive it, it's too late. It doesn't matter at that point now is the time to stop the madness before this erupts into a war that could end in hundreds of millions perhaps a billion people dying in a couple days lindsey graham senator lindsey graham has reiterated his call for Putin to be assassinated.

Look at the second part of this headline, Rick. If his good friend John McCain were here, he'd be saying the same thing. You're right. He would be saying the same thing. The warmongers never really die, do they? Their legacy lives on. But again, if you flip this around, if a Russian senator went on Russian television and said somebody in America needs to assassinate Joe Biden.

Yes. Now, can you imagine the outcry here? I mean, everybody would be saying, well, we've got to fight the Russians now. They've, you know, even if you don't like Joe Biden, you don't, you know, threaten the president of the United States. But it's okay to do that to Vladimir Putin because he's the bad guy right now, right? You know, Doc, a couple weeks ago, Mr. Childress, who's a NASCAR team owner and owns an ammo company, he donated, what was it, 100 million rounds of ammo to the Ukrainian Army. And I brought it up. And there were some True News supporters who were offended, felt like I was wrong in criticizing Mr. Childress.

What I said, and I say the same thing about Lindsey Graham, what I said was both of those men had, they were jeopardizing their own safety by interjecting themselves in a foreign war of which they have no business and no interest. Mr. Childress, the NASCAR team owner, what business does he have in Ukraine that's worth risking his life and his family here in the United States. Because he's now become part of a war effort. His bullets that he's donated will be used to kill Russian soldiers. There are, I don't, Mr. Childress probably doesn't understand this. There are Russian operatives in America every day. Every single day, Russian commandos in America every day, every single day, Russian commandos in America, not walking around in uniforms, but dressed as civilians, but they are Russian commandos. And so they're here every

single day. They have been for years and decades. They rotate them just like the United States has commandos in Russia. Right. They only get activated in a time of war. The purpose is to have them on the other country's soil to stay low, you know, under the radar, low key. They have jobs in those countries. They have families. They have families. They get married to women of that country. They look like they have immigrated to that country. And you might say, what?

Where are you getting that stuff? I got that from a Russian spy. Stanislav Lunov told me that. And they're doing the same thing here in the U.S. Because he came to the United States as a reporter. Right. That's how he came in and moved around in the country and hid nuclear suitcase bombs throughout the United States of America

to be activated in a time of war. By the way, where are the nuclear suitcase bombs? Where are they? General Lebed years ago said that there were 200 nuclear suitcase bombs missing from the Soviet arsenal. I saw an article not too long ago that at least 20 are missing from the Ukrainian historical safekeeping place. And so that they've never been able to account for. Yeah, so what I was saying about Mr. Childress and about Lindsey Graham is I'm not hoping something bad happens to him.

I'm saying you guys need to shut your mouth. You're running your mouth and Lindsey Graham is calling for the assassination of a world leader in a time of war. What do you think is going to happen to Lindsey Graham? He's going to have to sleep with one eye open at night because a Russian commando may just sneak into his home in D.C. or South Carolina and the guy never wakes up.

These are really reckless remarks to make. Yes. And the Russians can take out people and, you know, they don't leave fingerprints behind. This is a very dangerous time. And, you know, I just Fox News should condemn Sean Hannity. He should have been reprimanded for calling for the assassination of a world leader. Look, I got banned from Facebook and YouTube and everything else out there. And all I did was criticize Zionism, a political movement.

Never called for violence against anybody. No. But now on Facebook, you can say. Facebook, you can call for the assassination of Putin, and it's okay. That's good hate speech. See, we're in the Nazi world. You've got good hate speech, bad hate speech. Oh, what else we got here?

Before we take a break, we'll take a look. They're still going after former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard. Right. And now, Doc, this is Military.com. They're now going after her because she is an active duty U.S. Army Reserve officer. That's right. And so as a, you know, as an active, well, she's in the reserves. Not, I would say active duty, but she is, she is still in the reserves as an officer. But as part of the Army Reserve, the rules are different than the National Guard, but as part of the Army Reserve, she has, she is considered as full status, if you will. And so any active duty soldier could be held up on charges, on Article 15 charges, you know, for remarks, you know, during a conflict and everything. And those rules would apply to her. But I just think it's really disingenuous of them to throw

that out at this point, because all she did was was speak truth and she didn't even go as far as as she could go with it she never said tulsi gabbard never said at any point of time that bioweapons were being manufactured in ukraine all she said that all she tulsi gabbard said was there were bio labs in ukraine that were funded by the U.S. Defense Department and there were pathogens in those labs. And they're in a war and they are in a war zone. Right. And they could be blown up and the pathogens released in the air.

All those are facts. All those things are true. Well, look what NBC said about her. Yes. Let's look at this. Russian propaganda on Ukraine. Look at this. Non-existent biolabs boosted by the U.S. far right. So I guess that includes true news. Non-existent? They don't exist mbc said there's no bio labs in ukraine right they know they're lying mbc knows it is lying it's in the headline there's no bio labs in ukraine and yet the evidence

is overwhelming that there are, what were we told? The Defense Department, in the document that we showed the other day, showed 46 labs in Ukraine alone that the Defense Department itself was providing over $200 million to. And that's just in the past five years. We don't know how much more they were doing before that. That's directly from the Defense Department. That's far right conspiracy.

But NBC said they're nonexistent. So they went on to say this. They said Russia's... So did the Pentagon send checks to something, an empty mailbox? I guess so, Rick, if they never got them back or anything. So Russia's early struggles to push disinformation and propaganda about Ukraine have picked up momentum in recent days thanks to a variety of debunked conspiracy theories about biological research labs in Ukraine. Much of the false information is flourishing in Russian social

media, far-right online spaces, and U.S. conservative media, including Tucker Carlson's show on Fox News. The theories, which have been boosted by Russian and Chinese officials, come as U.S. officials warned that Russia could be preparing a chemical or biological weapons attack of its own in Ukraine. It says most of the conspiracy theories claim that the U.S. was developing and plotting to release a bioweapon or potentially another coronavirus from biolabs throughout Ukraine and that Russia invaded to take over the labs. Many of the theories implicate people who are often the targets of far-right conspiracy thinking, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, who's been hiding, and President Joe Biden, who isn't hiding,

as being behind creating the weaponized diseases in the bio labs well well the facts are there are biological labs in ukraine that we've been funding that we've already confirmed had pathogens like anthrax and others i thought about this today doc What's the name of the Pentagon program? BTRP. Forget what the initials stand for. BTRP. Threat Reduction something. Okay. So I thought about this today. Biological Threat Reduction Program.

There you go. You got it. So the program was set up after the fall of the Soviet Union, which was in the early 90s. Right. The purpose of the plan, by the way in the early 90s. Right. The purpose of the plan, by the way, Richard Lugar and then later Barack Obama were part of this. So somebody should be asking Obama about these labs because he knows a lot about it. So the official story was the Pentagon went to the former Soviet Union countries after the fall

of the Soviet Union to make sure that these dangerous... According to the stories, when the Russians were in the labs in the 90s and the 80s, they were making biological weapons

because those evil, dirty, filthy, no good Russians, and the truth is they were making biological warfare weapons. That's the truth, okay? They were, just like the U.S. was and is in Fort Detrick. But the storyline is the Russians were making biological weapons in those labs. Then the Soviet Union fell. Then the Pentagon went in and took control of these labs in Ukraine and other former Soviet states to reduce the threat, the threat reduction.

So why would they establish more labs, Rick? How many years does it take to get rid of anthrax and the plague? If you're reducing the threat wouldn't you just burn it or put it in a hole someplace? I mean if the plan is to reduce it. This is 2022. Right and we've expanded the operation over 20 years so to to reduce it you expand that's right okay think about that that's what they want us to believe hey we're going to take a break here's a message from heaven's harvest being prepared means thinking long term yes you may have your immediate food and water needs supplied, but what happens if there's a long-term crisis or supply chain issues last months or even years?

Greek islands can be a safe haven for Israelis in case of an Iranian nuclear attack. Well, that's an interesting story, isn't it?

It certainly is. Nuclear wars are popping up in a lot of... It's exploding everywhere, Doc. It's just a nuclear war. of, it's exploding everywhere, Doc. It's just nuclear war. Yeah, it's exploding in the headlines. So this is actually a very serious proposal from some Israelis. So we'll take a look at some of the quotes in the article. Right.

So it starts off this, in this article, could the state of Israel purchase Greek islands in the Mediterranean? According to Attorney Avery Steiner, the islands would become another iron dome amidst increasing ballistic threats from Iran. In a board meeting for Hamanuta, a subsidiary of Kirin Kiamath Le Israel Jewish National Fund, that's a mouthful, that deals in the purchase of land, Steiner floated

the idea as a contingency plan for the evacuation of Israelis in case of an Iranian missile attack. And now speaking to Ma'ariv, the attorney who is on Haman Nuda's board argued that the prospect of the KKLGNF subsidiary purchasing Greek islands is a necessity for evacuating Israelis in case of a missile attack or natural disaster event. Steiner told Ma'ariv he felt it necessary to suggest the idea to Haymanuda's board of directors after reports on the Islamic Republic's ballistic arsenal. On Tuesday, U.S. Central Command General Kenneth McKenzie said Iran has more than 3,000 ballistic missiles,

many of which can reach the state of Israel. So Steiner, an active member of the World Zionist Congress, claimed it to be an opportunity to provide a safe haven in the case of an extensive threat to the Israeli population. Now listen to this part of it. I came up with the idea that the state or an independent Zionist body should look for unpopulated land that can be purchased and establish the infrastructure needed to evacuate citizens in times of need.

So if the Israeli government won't buy it, maybe the World Zionist Congress can buy the land. I wish they would have employed that idea in 1948. Buy the land? Yes. How about, yeah, pay the Arabs for Palestine. Instead of making them pay for it in blood.

Yes. So. There were many. And many who did buy in blood. Yes. There were many. And many who did buy land there, who did legitimately do it. And there were, for many years, there were responsible Jewish leaders in the Zionist movement who did say, we have to buy the land, we can't take it with rifles. If we use military might, we will pay for this for decades. And that's exactly what has happened because the Palestinians who are still there are not surrendering.

But Rick, one thing out of this article that stood out in my mind, we provide billions of dollars a year to Israel for defense as a nation. At $10 billion. Right. We helped them establish the Iron Dome system. In fact, it was so good, we actually not only helped them establish it, we bought it from them and are using it

in different places around the world ourselves. I don't guess it's covering enough, is it, Rick? No. They have to establish an Iron Dome somewhere else. And if I were a Greek citizen,

I'd be saying, excuse me, but you have caused so much trouble in the middle east you that there's war everywhere you go and now you're going to escape the war zone that you've created and bring your war to Greece. Because if you bring the Iron Dome there, you just brought the biggest target there, right? That's right. And you just made all the Mediterranean a target after that. That's right. So it's just an interesting situation there.

The Jewish people have not figured out that they're not persecuted because they're Jewish. They're persecuted because they're Jewish. They're persecuted because some of the Jews are Zionists. Right. It's just that simple. It's Zionism that people oppose, not Jews. They're opposed to Zionism.

It's a political movement that wants world power and is willing to kill in order to get it. And we'll reiterate, and we've said it time and time again, we want to see the Jewish people saved. Absolutely. We want to see Muslims saved. We want to see Buddhists saved. But we especially want to see

Jews saved. We especially want to see that. And we want to see Zionists repent. That's the first thing. Amen. Amen. For those that are watching, whether you're Jewish, whether you're Muslim, maybe you're someone who claimed to be a Christian, you're on the fence.

The Prince of Peace is here now. There's war all around the world, but the Prince of Peace is here now. The real war that's going on in the world, Rick, it's not the bombs and missiles and rockets, but the war going on in people's hearts, right? The struggle they have with their own sin and their own guilt, their own shame. Wouldn't you like to be free of the shame? Wouldn't you like to be free of the guilt?

Wouldn't you like to be free of the weight of the sin in your life? The Prince of Peace is here. He can declare that the war is over in your own heart. That's right. There may not be peace in the world, but there can be peace in your heart. But there's going to be peace in the world one day, isn't there? There is. Because all of this war is going to come to an end when... In one day. In one second when the King of glory arrives, the Lord Jesus Christ, and he will put an end to this bloodshed and violence and the wars, and he will wipe away all tears. Yes.

Imagine that. Imagine every tear that you've ever cried, Rick. I'm tearing up right now. But you'll never cry again. In my book, Final Day, there's a line in there that says, there are no hankies in heaven. Do you ever think about that? There are no handkerchiefs in heaven. Why would you need a handkerchief in heaven? There's no crying. There's nobody sad. There's nobody crying.

And you won't need a handkerchief when you're in the presence of the lord because all your troubles all your woes are gone and never again can anything come against you that would harm you anything to make you sad anything to to bring tears to your eyes he's going to wipe away all tears uh really encourage you to get this book.
