"Was the Russia-Ukraine War Provoked? | Scott Horton Exposes U.S. Foreign Policy" In this explosive episode, Jillian sits down with Scott Horton, historian and author of Provoked: How Washington Started the New Cold War with Russia and the Catastrophe in Ukraine, to uncover the decades of U.S. foreign policy decisions that, he argues, fueled the Russia-Ukraine conflict. From NATO's expansion into Eastern Europe to covert assassinations, missile defense systems, and color-coded revolutions, Horton meticulously pieces together how these policies escalated tensions with Russia rather than fostering peace. Was this war inevitable, or was it provoked? Key Topics: How NATO’s relentless expansion created a powder keg. The role of U.S. weapons manufacturers and the military-industrial complex. What missed opportunities could have prevented this war? Shocking parallels between media narratives and historical propaganda. Lessons the world must learn to avoid future global catastrophes. This conversation is packed with history, hard truths, and insights that challenge mainstream narratives.
