REVEALED: The REAL Reason Europe Wants War With Russia! w/ Judge Napolitano

Overview

Jimmy Dore and Judge Andrew Napolitano discuss a clip from economist Richard Wolff, who argues that Europe’s former colonial powers may view a weakened Russia as an opportunity to regain economic and geopolitical influence. Wolff suggests that Russia’s defeat could lead to its breakup into smaller states. Dore presents this as the hidden purpose of the war in Ukraine.

Main points

Napolitano agrees with Wolff’s broader criticism, arguing that some Western officials have sought to remove Vladimir Putin and fragment Russia through the conflict. He describes those aims as unrealistic and dangerous. The discussion also connects the war to NATO’s eastward expansion, claiming that assurances given to Russia after the Soviet Union’s collapse were later disregarded.

Dore and Napolitano question whether European leaders have enough public support to deepen their involvement, pointing to discussions of conscription and military expansion. They also discuss Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s reported openness to freezing the front lines.

Napolitano argues that an earlier negotiated settlement in Istanbul was derailed after intervention by British and U.S. leaders, including Boris Johnson and Joe Biden. He adds that Ukrainian nationalist groups and Western intelligence agencies could obstruct a future agreement, and warns that Ukraine’s military might collapse before the war ends.
