‘Donbass will be the new Jerusalem for NATO’ – Matthew Hoh

Sanchez: ‘The EU needs the war to continue because that’s where they make their bread.’
Matthew Hoh: ‘Donbass will be the new Jerusalem for NATO.’

In this episode of RT’s ‘Sanchez Effect,’ Rick discusses recent major conflicts with former US Marine Corps officer and State Department official Matthew Hoh, who took part in American operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Our guest told us that Iran is winning the current war, and that is why it is insisting on achieving a ceasefire in Lebanon, but Matthew also believes Israel will do whatever it takes to undermine the peace process, following widespread radicalization among its citizens. As for the Ukraine conflict, Mr. Hoh does not think Russia will escalate and strike the EU even despite the latter’s provocations. He thinks it is Brussels and not Moscow that wants another big war on the continent. That is because EU elites need an external threat to build up their support. Watch the full episode here on RT or on BitChute at ‘ricksancheztv’.

‘Donbass will be the new Jerusalem for NATO’ – Matthew Hoh
Sanchez Effect is a journalistic rebellion. RT’s flagship program is led by Rick Sanchez, the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning newsman who’s made a career out of defying the status quo. “When only one side of a story is permitted, that’s when I push harder. If Moscow is deemed off-limits, it’s precisely where I want to be. Because more often than not, truth resides in the places we’re told not to look.”
