The Good evening. It's Tuesday, September 26th. Welcome to a new episode of

system update. Our live nightly show that airs every Monday through Friday at 7 p.m. Eastern exclusively

here on rumble the free speech alternative to YouTube tonight from the start of

the massive US role in the war in Ukraine, the overarching and still unanswered question has been why?

Why do U.S. leaders see Ukraine as a country so vital to the security and prosperity of the United States that they are willing to spend hundreds

of billions of dollars to keep that war going, willing to deplete its own weapons stockpiles,

and even willing to risk escalation or nuclear exchanges with the

country with the largest nuclear stockpile on the planet, which is Russia.

It has been clear from the start of the war that as is always the case for American Wars the pretext that were offered are just that pretext.

We are there because we are good and benevolent people who are deeply empathetic and believe in the virtues of democracy

and the need to defend it when it is under attack.

Literally everything about US foreign policy for the last 70 years gives the lie to that propaganda.

You can just look at the US support for the regimes in Saudi Arabia and Egypt, who are the most

repressive regimes on the planet.

To see that that claim that we love democracy so much,

we just want to spread and protect it,

doesn't pass the laugh test.

Indeed, just like the excuse offered for the war on terror was a blatant fraud, remember that?

They hate us for our freedoms.

Along with the excuse offered for the invasion of Iraq, we must fight them over there

so we don't fight them over here, as though Saddam Hussein was going to invade the United States

and invade some sort of huge war in the American homeland unless we struck first.
