Not only ignorance rules. Greed, envy and evil also rule the western countries.

I'm a U.S. citizen and I can tell you from experience that the political elite in the U.S. suffers from a superiority complex. The West, and the U.S., in particular, view the world entirely different from countries like China. The U.S. sees it as its right to dominate the globe because it is powerful. Being powerful doesn't mean you should throw your weight around and be dictatorial. If you follow U.S. think tanks and security experts, they all subscribe to a great power paradigm that says great powers can and should interfer in the world to control it. There is no "live and let live" sentiment in these guys. Few people really understand what the U.S. is. Even most Americans don't know. The U.S. is a settler nation and all settler nations are founded on violence. Violence, violence, violence. Violence against the natives, violence against minorities and violence against their neighbors. Look at how many armed conflicts the U.S. has been in. I'm in my forties and the U.S. has been involved in several conflicts each decade of my life. Endless wars. "The land of the free" is b.s. There was slavery here. "Nation of immigrants" is b.s. What about the settlers, Native Americans and the Black slaves? So many lies are spread in the U.S. that it takes mental gymnastics just to see through it all. These guys won't stop. They have to BE stopped. That's why Russia responded to the encroachment of their sphere of influence with complete violence. The U.S. only understands violence, they were founded on violence.

I’m in the US Army and Andrei is always so unintentionally funny with his truth lol. Great guest! We need him to teach American how to think about their own superpower status.

Two very intelligent men in discussion. Rare.

Andrei made a good point when he said that the US lacks the resources to fight China.

Thank you Nima for always asking the most important and serious questions, and then listening intently to your guests answering. It just shows how respectful you are to everyone, giving them ample time to explain things which can educate us viewers immensely. Much appreciated.

I always enjoy listening to Mr. Martyyanov's analysis on a broad spectrum of international politics. He's concise n straight to the point, especially about the stupidity of the Collective West! Thanks very much for sharing your expertise n wisdom, Mr. Martyyanov! 👏👏🙏🙏

When two great interlocutors meet, Nima with the questions, and Andrei with the informed answers So rare nowadys. What a treat. Merci!

Andrei, he is the best among all Analysts. 😎

Andrei Martyanov thanks!

Very wise man. 👍

44:00 Andrei Martyanov! Thank-you, thank-you, THANK-YOU! with your take on John Mearsheimer! Listening to him on Lex Fridman for his book tour was infuriating 🤬. Andrei, totally respect your keen clear BS-free analytical thinking! 👏

Andrei, GOD BLESS YOU.

Your guest is absolutely correct about the quality of education of our leaders economically, militarily, and politically.

Thank you Gentlemen. God Bless.

Damn. This man can explain the truth for engl8sh speakers. So good to hear him. World should listen to smart russians.

Love Mr.Martyanov’s sense of humor, also his view about the geopolitical situation. Thank you for this very interesting interview.

It's always a pleasure to follow these interviews. I think that it is not energy that makes the difference for Russia on the planet, it is the culture of its elites and its citizens. They are used to thinking, reflecting, questioning. However, the West has already slipped into immediacy, ease, materialism and the futile. Greetings from Portugal.

This is absolutely brilliant. Superb stuff. Mr. Martyanov is the father of the little boy who pointed out the Emperor's nakedeness; he goes on to diagnose the fatally diseased body within 🤣👌The stuff on Western education is top-drawer spot-on.

Thank you both, learned a lot today! Agree with Andrei assessment of the USA, myself lived there for ten years. I feel sad about the average guy there. Still, life must go on! Long live Russia!

Anderi Martayanvo and Scott Ritter are the best analyst.

Love Andrei Martyanov!❤

Great interview. Thank you both.

It's nice hearing truth and reality !!! Thank you Deema and Andrei...

Absolutely shining mind! 🎉🎉

Great channel!❤

Andrei is the very best. He is insulting my government and military ON MY BEHALF but with the backing of deep knowledge. Will love reading his book have him back regularly please Dr Jo East Anglia. I'm still looking for anyone I'd want to lead me, or fight my battles in England.

As someone who worked in logistics I'm familiar with the principle of FI-FO, First In First Out. This is the first time I heard about GI-GO, and I'm absolutely loving it!

Andrei is number ONE❤

"You cannot trust the United States anymore....they will sell you to Israel" These are brilliant comments, Andrei -- and exactly what my Palestinian-American friends are saying. They worked so hard to achieve citizenship for their children, build businesses, seek education. Now, they are seeing who owns our once-free country. Thank you for this interview! "Dialogue Works" is the best!

From this interesting discussion my understanding was that the difference between Russia and the US when it comes military production is that in Russia this is under state control. The government tells them what to do. In the US military production is privately owned. So we have large very wealthy private companies with lots of money available to influence politicians so those compliant to their requests tend to get elected and then re-elected. Since wars are very good for their business we get lots of wars.

The debacle in the HOLY Land could easily be seen as a microcosm of the larger world : a small cadre of wealthy and powerful men feel entitled enough to defy all social norms and butcher thousands in pursuit of their narrow self-interested goals. It is the most egregious example of that type of behavior, but it is not an anomaly. Fascism looms for billions.

Great show

Very informative thank you..

Every time I hear Mearsheimer says "to contain China", my reaction is: who the f he thinks he is? Both from a morality standpoint (China has risen peacefully) and a practical standpoint (as pointed out by Andrei).

I had to watch it twice it was that good. Lot to think about.

Love your interviews with Andrei. He simplifies matters for everyone to understand which explains how knowledgeable he is. He talks to me. Thank you.

Very good interview

Sorry Andrei, you're wrong on one point: They're not stupid. They do it on purpose. Thank you both what everything you do.

Many more thumbs up. Martyanov is bang on today, he always is, but today it really speaks to me.

Mr Martyanov's assessment of Mearsheimer is so so spot on! I can't understand why he's held in such high regard despite his ignorance about my country China (n Russia)! I've heard him stress on more than one occasion America shouldn't target Russia; but it must contain China! Just what has my country done to deserve this? Does America have the capability to contain China anyway? What stupid American exceptionalism!

well done men

Paradigm shift from a strategy based on PR, narrative shaping and bluster to that of the reality of real wat fighting.

Thank you. Andrei is a treasure.

Mr. Andrei, you are laser sharp. thank you Dialogue Work for having Mr. Martyanov to discuss this topic. them khagoons are on their way to a very unholy place.

Great analysis.

I always enjoy Mr Martyanov's frank assessments 😂

Someone needs to create a Martyanov bot, it would be amusing and informative to chat with

Russia took advantage like a boss from Bahmut episode. Nice work, anyway.

Common prosperity. I believe that is the goal of everyone now. Our intellectuals have picked the data thru and fed it models that have iterated now for 80 years. Strategic ambiguity is a thing I've looked at for quite some time and is the reason behind your guest saying there building a military 1.5 million man strong but I truly think the majority of the people in the world are working toward a future of peace and stability . That's the outcome that's being supported by the global institutions while they work to clear the corruptions that are inherant in any complex system. Ambiguity is a tool to trip the wires of corruption and see it to where it belongs. That's the fight we're engaged in and it's my hope that we can rise above our nationalism to do the right thing by the evolution off the global order as it's evolving. It's the stuff off asceticism and the self disciplined minds that make our words safe. All the best everyone...

😢😢😢😢😢 Thanks for the Real Journalism!

I like much of Mearsheimer's analysis but I agree with Andrei, I think he has the colonial mind.

When an entity threatens to love you. You should listen.

Humongous fan of andrei!

Ignorance has always rule. Religions are the best example of ignorance.

Thank you 💞

Andrei is one awesome man

Watching from Russia Awesome 👏

I enjoy hearing Mr Martyanov’s knowledge of how the American military and educational system works for their elites. I really appreciate his analysis and knowledge. Thank you Dialogue Works.

👍 number 18 came from Australia 👋😁🙏

Bonjour , merci . C'est vraiment du caviar d'écouter monsieur Andreï . Au revoir .

Thanks for this content.

Excellent analysis!

Andrei is a very smart, highly knowledgeable, passionate person. His main problem is that he is appalled, rather than amused, by the offal that resides at the top of the US power system.

Andrew is absolutely correct in most or ALL of his analysis. He is right on the ball. On the mark. My only argument as an engineer is this ::: Have yea ever used Chinese or even sometimes Russian high profile or any Chinese products. Compared to European or US or Western,,,,, anything,,,, they have the WORST RELIABILITY and performance in comparison. The Worst. So cannot compare value. China is third rated production output. Military Industrial Education Durability Reliability Quality. This future will be a reduced and worthless turn on humanity. With my industrial and defense experience I know what I say

i really like ANDREI !!!

Great conversation

Thank you from Langley

Some years ago Putin said in a speech that without order only military force orders the world. I wondered from that if his game plan was to sow trust for Russia all around the world by showing her to be a totally reliable and trustable partner in business arrangements. Back then Putin was also said to the be the hardest-working national leader in the world, travelling everywhere where nations were willing to establish diplomatic ties and talk business. Now Russia has the status, respect and status that it merits and the world also sees that Putin is a man of his word in how he warned, for years, about the war that NATO expansion would lead to if the West did not negotiate a non-military agreement with Russia. His warnings are valid, and he comes through on his word. So it would seem the trust and credibility goal is materializing quite substantially both for Russia as an international partner and also that trust is becoming the ordering force for a growing majority of the world's nations. He also stated through those earlier years that Russia did not want to be a superpower but obviously the untrustable forces of the world have forced her into taking such a position nonetheless as America's treachery has taken itself and its allies down. It is amazing, as Mr. Martyanov says, to see this happening before our eyes in real time.

Could you invite Mark Sleboda .He is very informative and knowledgeable.

I agree with his comments about mr. Mearsheimer 👍🏼

❤ Great Episode 👀🤠🇨🇦

Safe&Effective☠️👍

👍🏽

Thanks again for Sir Andrei Martyanov analysis of the facts. One of the few bloggers who tells it like it is in terms of western politicians on war strategy. They aer a bunch of clowns 😅😂

I don't always agree with Martianov, but I like how he combines a heavy accent with a lot of everyday American expressions. Like 'going bananas' etc.

It's not ignorance, it's deliberate.

❤❤❤

Andrei you are great again. Hole west are MADHOUSE. Piia from Finland.

Ignorance always rules in Democracy.

Andrei = The Cleaner Send him in.

Brutally honest - Brutally Correct …. Brilliant analysis brilliant episode !!!

When I was doing my undergrad the history department offered "History of Baseball"

Imagine Andrei trying to have a conversation with Peter Zeihan!

I have worked closely with Top CEO’s of USA and the management style they arw tought by Harvard, Stanford, and the likes is the same practice on the Navy, Army etc. The results are based on 90 days ROI windows, abd it has ni regard for the law or ethics, is what the Chief wants $nnn only. You can see the results on what is left of the industrial base of the USA and how we conduct Foreign policy. our next generation is screwed totally and they do not carw 😢. very sad for my children

No peace, no profits! 💳✂🗑📵📴💪🏻👵🏼

I agree with Andrey ont he part that Prof. Mearsheimer is after all an American Exceptionalist and he sees everything through the lense of american superiority and eternaltality.

"Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance" H.L. Mencken

When Ignorance Rules...true...if there is NO IGNORANCE...THERE WILL NOT BE POLITICIANS... REGARDLESS OF COUNTRY

European nations need to reboot without EU and NATO, probably without the UK and for sure without USA.

don’t even have to get paid… understand if you don’t want your backside barbecued… you get to go back and protect and see your family… don’t involve yourself in these wars for these assholes …Get home surrounded by Family..Build The the future from there GOD SDEED 😘😘

Regarding the growth of the Russian army. What is the demographic situation in Russia and how will this impact military expansion?

Moronisum is the American way

Great to hear a Russian say aloud what you know FM Lavrov thinks - but being the Supreme Diplomat - would never say.

"Mearsheimer is not a realist" - someone said the silent part out loud.

I haven't watched yet, but i just know, that certain people will be called morons and incompetent :)

"Janet Yellen is complete bimbo" thanks so much, Andrei

He's so very right on Russia-Ukraine conflict, so very wrong on Israel-Hamas conflict.

36:12 not quite, regarding the Polish people. Generally, Polish people for the most of their history considered themselves to belong to the Western Catholic civilisation, as "the bulwark of Christendom", which at the same time suggest they lived on the edge, or on the border of that civilisation. Let's say that during the centuries, the Polish people lived between the Western Europe and the Orthodox Christianity from the East and Islam (Ottoman Empire) encroaching from the South, not to mention raids and invasions by Mongols and Tatars. Interestingly, during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, which was a large if not the largest and the most populous superpower in 16th and 17th century Europe, the need to fight different opponents from the west and from the east led to two western-style and eastern-style types of troops in the Army (including the famous and unique winged hussars). Anyway, the Poles being Slavs share some cultural and of course linguistic similarities to other Slavic nations including the further east like Ukrainians and Russians, but it appears that the main civilisational and cultural differences go along the Catholic/Orthodox split line, which is probably somewhere in Ukraine or maybe on the Polish-Ukrainian border. Regarding Ukraine, the river Dnieper seems to be division line mainly for political and also historical reasons and also Russian influence.

He's knowledgeable but not boring. He knows Americans, Russians, and the ignorant yet arrogant USneoCons running the gov't & all US presidents. He has a wider viewpoint and without bias associated with religion & race like Mearsheimer & thejew analysts & professors who are pessimistic & depressing as hell.
