The Jimmy Dore Show The usual line on why NATO has to support Ukraine with untold billions of dollars revolves around the freedom-loving people of Ukraine, but hard-line old school cold warrior Oliver North doesn’t bother with that, explaining to a Fox News host that the $110 billion dumped on Ukraine is “money well spent” because it’s helping to debilitate the Russian army while also funneling many of those billions into the pockets of red, white and blue-bleeding American weapons manufacturers. Just like St. Ronald Reagan used to do!
Guest host Aaron Maté and former U.S. Marine and weapons inspector Scott Ritter discuss North’s open shilling for military contractors at the taxpayers’ expense.

Isn't this the whole point of the wa? Send equipment to the Ukraine, Russia destroys it. Raytheon/LM and others are paid to build replacements which are then sent to the Ukraine where Russia again destroys it.
1:27 "…most is spent in the US…" Yeah, we know, traitor. Ukraine laundered the money using crypto to help elect liberals. Only someone as vile as North and his neo-con buddies could see any kind of good coming from that
Scott, “Racquetball” Ritter
My 40k$ a year in taxes at work to murder people 😔
Death and destruction is not subsanable
You stopped short of exposing Bush Sr. having run the entire show as the deep head of the CIA while senile Reagan ate lime jello & napped.
To support the terrorist.
Putin said he was gonna destroy those Patriot missiles…l believe him , for those missiles to work they need to switch on the radar which makes for a good target.

US and Europe responsibility is to provide as much material is necessary to repel the invasion. American interest is to degrade the Russian aggressive military, re-calibrate the European balance with China and preserve borders. Like it or not, World is much more safe if the US has more hegemony. That is a fact! Russian predatory instincts need to be crashed. No one, that has a brain in his skull, would like to live under the Russian rules, as much as Chinese, Iranian, Taleban, Iranian or North Korea rules. If you do not agree, move to one of this countries that better suits your style of life. Thanks to America we got Hitler’s rules out of the way. Russian conventional military is incredibly second rate. Not only their soldiers, but their weapons are just embarrassing. Russia is poor !! GDP of Russia is the GDP of Florida guys. China is shitting in the pants at the idea of invading Taiwan ! How much did this cost to the US? Peanuts!! No lives and 6% of total defence budget for a complete degradation of the Russian military. Pretty solid return. Well done US
Regarding the hero Ritter, you should be aware of the below:
Ritter was the subject in two law enforcement sting operations in 2001.He was charged in June 2001 with trying to set up a meeting with an undercover police officer posing as a 16-year-old girl. He was charged with a misdemeanour crime of "attempted endangerment of the welfare of a child". The charge was dismissed, and the record was sealed after he completed six months of pre-trial probation. After this information was made public in early 2003, Ritter said that the timing of the leak was politically motivated in order to silence his opposition to the Bush administration's push toward war with Iraq.
Ritter was arrested again in November 2009 over communications with a police decoy he met on an Internet chat site. Police said that he exposed himself, via a web camera, after the officer repeatedly identified himself as a 15-year-old girl. Ritter said in his own testimony during the trial that he believed the other party was an adult acting out her fantasy. The chat room had an 'age 18 and above' policy, which Ritter stated to the undercover officer. The next month, Ritter waived his right to a preliminary hearing and was released on a $25,000 unsecured bail. Charges included "unlawful contact with a minor, criminal use of a communications facility, corruption of minors, indecent exposure, possessing instruments of crime, criminal attempt and criminal solicitation". Ritter rejected a plea bargain and was found guilty of all but the criminal attempt count in a courtroom in Monroe County, Pennsylvania, on April 14, 2011. In October 2011, he received a sentence of 1½ to 5½ years in prison. He was sent to Laurel Highlands state prison in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, in March 2012 and paroled in September 2014.

This is the level of "information" Jimmy Dore is providing to you ?
4:06 "…I wouldn't bring up a list of my Greatest Defeats." Clearly Ritter does not understand liberalism. These were defeats for America and Americans only. For Liberalism and Big Government, these were all major victories in their goal to acquire Power. That Oliver North does not get laughed out of the building is proof that liberals and Big Government won
They just love war because it puts money in their pockets!!corrupted Republicans and democrats and the United States and nato..no more wars!!
Is Jimmy Ok? I love you guys but getting worried
North, a deep state pos. ✌️
I like when Aaron is on..
ollie north like nazi's who knew
The moral of the story is: Crime pays…
Another idiot. North should have been arrested but wasn’t. Doesn’t even understand Taiwan WANTS to join China as voted on by its citizens.
Neocons will never admit they’re murderers
Speaking of bringing up your defeats. Let’s hear them Scott. You have plenty
Why the hell would they haul Ollie North out as a reputable voice on anything?…he knows good, bold corruption when he sees it! Then says the quiet part outloud their blood our bullets.
Shout out to the people voted Biden and he’s cahoots that’s where your taxes go….
Ugh! The difference was, the Dem congress wouldn't support the "Contras" in Nicaragua, so…
Reagan GAVE new weapons to Israel, they SOLD the old models to Iran (US was trying to have a Iraq-Iran war stalemate!), and the money was sent to the Nicaragua Contras to buy US weapons. That's a Win-Win-Win situation.
Ukraine is a total loss of 10's of billions…
Who Unredrew The Russian Country's Borders That's The Real Questions Are 🤔
& Who Benifeted ?
Oliver North Says That The Iranian Drones Are What We Are Up Against
So Who Is We Can Anyone Tell The Truth About 🤔 9 Year's Of Russian Speaking Innocent Civilians Being Shelled Just For The Reason That These People Had The Nerve To Speak Russian 🤔
Oliver who?
I do not recall?
Total BS….
What he listed is the most damning freudian admission of this being not good company to take
$110 Billion for *N@zis
There. Fixed.
Why are we listening to the Criminal Oliver North? Why is he even on FOX news? Olie is a known psychopath. Everything out of his mouth is a push for dumping money down a bottomless pit in the pursuit of mass indiscriminate killing of human beings.
The sad part is that scandals far far bigger than Watergate and Iran-Contra are occurring these days…and the establishment ignores them.
and books and publishers, don't forget books oliver; no more invasions (please dont ask about syria, afghanistan, libya, venezuela, all of africa, and most of south america all of that area is still open game)
Hmmm. Only 25K each from Iran? 4 million for each missile from American arms dealers? MY tax dollars? Lets make Iran an offer for some drones and not be ripped off.
When Jeff Bezos Pays 1 dollar in taxes, he can say where we buy weapons. Lets just reach out to some of Oliver North's Iranian weapons dealer friends.
spending 4 million to shoot down 25k sounds like bankruptcy…
So provoke Russia 1st then provoke China…seems legit
We need to fight back somehow. I'm tired of this shit.
Imagine if we spent $110 Billion on peace..?
Everyone knows it’s another US war of grifting, selling shitty weapons at top price, whilst making it look like their helping out, when Americans have only ever helped out Americans. They are playing Zalensky for a fool, because being a fool, a successful fool on the cover of Times Man of The Year is what he’s happy to settle for.
Hitler was an actor.
This is an unworthy cause.,
Sorry, Putin is the good guy in this and he is not a good guy.
Money laundering/stealing at the next level without any traces. Former politicians will get lucrative job at private military weapon manufacturers to bring in more billion dollars contract repeatedly
North is lying, not a surprise.
The Ukraine and the EU ARE THE MOST CORRUPT COUNTRIES IN EUROPE.
Scott, I'd just like to correct you on one of the points you made. You said the US will go bankrupt supplying missiles to Ukraine. Actually, the US is already bankrupt. The US Federal Government is almost $31.5 TRILLION in debt! That costs the taxpayer in excess of half a TRILLION $$$ a year in servicing costs. A year from now, that cost will be about $1.5 TRILLION. Total Federal Government revenue is less than $5 TRILLION!!! Where is the money coming from to fund these liabilities??
How the f–k did we get to the point where scumbags like Oliver North are allowed on TV and treated as the voice of reason instead of being locked up indefinitely in jail.
Easy money 😁
A complete disregard for Human Suffering based on US greed , this is Evil !! This is America 😡
Ritter used to be relevant until he did what he did. I am not listening to a grown up man who is sexually attracted to 15 yr old girls……
This is also a good video to reiterate what Julian Assange says about Afghanistan that the point of permanent warfare is not to win or lose but to keep the flow of $$$ going to the defense industry and into places where it can be laundered.
