Professor Emeritus David Hendrickson discusses the Ukraine crisis, the unleashing of Weapons of Financial Destruction (WFDs) by Washington, and the coming economic war. He likens what is coming to the spread of coronavirus around the world. The West wants not only to strangle Russia, but also not allow other states (e.g. China, Iran) to avoid future such sanctions on them. The U.S.-China relationship is where it will get hot and heavy, Beijing has extraordinary market power, and has become Moscow's 'permanent ally'. He does agree that American Empire is declining, but posits that the power it has to 'take a lickin' and keep on tickin'' is great. He doesn't think the Ukraine conflict will escalate and sees parallels to the invasion of Iraq.
