The Empire Files has the video Ukraine: Questions for the US Anti-War Movement w/ Abby Martin & Brian Becker.

Abby Martin and Brian Becker discuss the Ukraine war and what it means for the anti-war movement.

The most comprehensive discussion about the Ukraine that I have seen so far.

This video is worth staying to the end where they discuss what to do next. I have slightly different words for describing what to do. I agree that this is a long-term battle of ideas. I think the emphasis should be on cooperation in society rather than on competition in society. Putting it this way avoids labels and identity politics. Quoting what one person thinks is a great person might cloudy a great idea that happens to have been said by people who are not thought of as great in the eyes of many other people. The upshot is that the solution in the USA is not a third party that has no foundational great ideas. A successful movement has to start from great ideas. Bipartisanship for the sake of bipartisanship if the foundational ideas are misguided, will not help this country in the long run.

Jimmy Dore has the video Media Lies About Ukraine/Russia DEBUNKED!

The media description of the Russian attack on Ukraine has almost universally elided and whitewashed the role played by the US and its NATO allies, including supporting a coup overthrowing the democratically elected president in 2014, refusing to support the Minsk Accords or refusing to engage in negotiations in the months leading up to the Russian invasion.

I haven’t been paying much attention to Jimmy Dore lately, but I think this is one episode that is worth sharing.
