Doug Macgregor: The destruction of the pipeline was clearly not executed by Russia

Doug Macgregor: "Well, not quite what Senator Graham had to say, or for that matter, President Biden.The destruction of the pipeline was clearly not executed by Russia.No one believes that.In fact, the German population has been pulled and overwhelmingly, as opposed to the notion of any war with Russia and dismisses out of hand the notion that the Russians are responsible for the pipeline.I think three things are what we're dealing with right now.First of all, Putin has decided that no one in Washington will negotiate with him and he knows that Washington is ultimately in control.

And so he's decided that in response,he's got to escalate the military operation.People aren't aware of it in the west,but the Russian forces in Ukraine have always been outnumbered from the day they entered Ukraine.That's going to change rather dramatically, and I suspect the bombers that you referred to who carry both conventional or nuclear weapons will have conventional arms and those bombers are probably going to be used inthe escalation that we're about to witness in Ukraine.

And I think he's going to settle this dispute in Ukraine on terms that are acceptable to Russia that we may not like.But other than Poland, no one in NATO is interested in going to war with Russia.If we persist on this line, we will see NATO dissolve in fragment.

Of course, absolutely no one wants to goto war with Russia other than the polls,the few people in Washington DC."
