Sachs

Jeffrey Sachs is a well known economist who appeared weekly on Morning Joe but has been absent for the past year or so. The reason is now apparent as he opposes the war in Ukraine. Just like Vietnam the press has joined forces with the military industrial complex to promote war. Recall that during the cold war the US made friends with dictators in order to fight communism. The CIA intervened in foreign governments both overtly and covertly. The war today has gotten tangled up with politics and many who in their hearts feel one way will not speak up because it conflicts with their political views. The Ukrainian people have become pawns in the game of US politics. By the time this war comes to an end Ukraine will look like Afghanistan. There will be no clear winner as was the case in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan an Iraq.
