Voice of reason?

I'm less skeptical than many on the right about Ukraine, so Col. Douglas MacGregor is saying things in this interview that I don't like hearing. Nevertheless he's worth listening to. Obviously he has many views about the Trump and Biden administrations that line up very closely with my own prejudices.

I don’t have the patience to listen to somebody talk for a long time, but the first little bit sounded sensible.

I also have limited patience for people talking in videos...would anyone like to post a summary of his points?

Here is a song for US Defense Contractors and the Neocons - This is there finest hour! Happy Hour! WAR! Yippy!

On Cape Cod in the summer
There are watering holes for slobs
Who just got back from college
And got stuck with nowhere jobs
Where "maddogs" pick up "quabin"
The beer runs good as gold
Fights are a dime a dozen
And those rejected lose control

When it's time for another happy hour
They get it while they can
Idiots at happy hour
Where a man can be a man
Idiots at happy hour

If you're lucky they'll be mudwrestling
You can watch two ugly broads
Slither around in greyish slime
Like human polliwogs
Where men can ride a bronco
And be cowboy for a day
A part of your society
I choose to stay away

When it's time for another happy hour
They get it while they can
Idiots at happy hour
Where a man can be a man
Idiots at happy hour

I hope this whole thing kills NATO and drastically reduces the size of the US Military and our overseas empire. Bring our Military home. We are the evil empire of Lies and Covid and our government no longer serves us... Can you imagine if we no longer have the albatross of empire and we set up a Nationalistic govt like Viktor Orbán has done in Hungary? It would be wonderful if we were no longer a client state of Israel! No American should die to fight for Israel's Globalist Homo Wet dreams!!!

Grim, perhaps you should listen to it, it's pretty good. I was going to try to bullet point it for you, but I gave up on that. You can watch it at 1.5x speed and it's perfectly listenable like that, saving a bit of time.
He also has some writing that hits some of the points in the interview, if you're interested.
