12:17 "...Not one American soldier or German Bundeswehr soldier has even broken a fingernail...So, I mean, what are we tired of?" I love this man.
-
Macron didn't say we should send troops to Ukraine, he said he couldn't rule out the possibility.
-
Eisenhower said a commander should never tell the enemy what he isnt going to do. Let him waste his time guessing.
-
The French never said they would send troops on the ground in Ukraine he only said the possibility is not off the table just like anything is open for consideration this is being blown out of proportion. All options are open for discussion not decisions made to put troops on the ground. All countries have the right to think about what can be considered
-
Mr. Hodges never ceases to speak straight facts.
-
I hate the fact that Gen. has been preaching this strategic objective requirement and nobody in the us government has been listening!
-
He's so consistent on his points, I hope at some point western leaders put his advice in action
-
Ben gave us as an straight answer. Great man.
-
Macron specifically said there was no consensus in Europe about the possibility of sending troops, but that he thinks we should keep this open. This journalist keeps misrepresenting what was said.
-
Just to be clear, macro did not say we should send troops, he said « there is no consensus about sending troops, but we cannot completely take this of the table » the journalist work is getting more and more poor.
-
This is what we need to hear. I have a lot of respect for this man.
-
As Churchill said our policy is “ Victory”in winning WW2 . Should be same in Ukraine
-
You would think that Macron had said something outrageous. The West has sent troops to countries with far LESS reason for doing so (Afghanistan, Iraq). Ukraine has already proven its commitment to achieving freedom, democracy, and peace within its own, sovereign borders. Russia has a population of 140 million to Ukraine's 40 million. In what way is this a "fair" fight?
-
Amazing interview, Ben Hodges is a great military analyst. I don't miss any interview with him. He always brings some news points of view very interesting.
-
Not only general is well connected, he is also well grounded in facts and logic.
-
Nothing should be off limits...behind close doors.
-
His last statement was on the nose. Russia wanted to make sure Ukraine never got the iron dome. Oct 7th was Iran's gift to Russia.
-
Hodges is right. Sadly Scholz is not fit for times of crisis like this and he can't detach himself enough from Russia.
-
Thank you DW this interview with such a thoughtful, knowledgeable person.
-
I feel sorry for Scholz... definitely a softy for the good times, but way out of his depth when times get tough.
