Are we seeing the revitalization of conservative civilization, all over the world has been a massive backlash against globalization, its leftist leadership, and its anti-cultural liberal values, and it's just the beginning.

I'm Dr. Steve Turley. I believe the liberal globalist world is at its brink, and a new conservative age is rising.

Every day, as we examine these worldwide trends, discover answers to today's toughest challenges, and together learn to live in the present, in light of even better things to come.

This is Turley Talks.

That, of course, brings us to Ukraine and Russia and everything going on there, and just breaking news, you know, this may develop by the time that this is uploaded, but the Ukrainian started sending drones and bombing the outskirts of suburban Moscow, and the US seems to be not cool with this, but the Brits are cool with it, so it shows you the kind of thing.

It shows you the breakdown on how crazy some of these factions are, but we're finally seeing Putin, and as I said, maybe the slowest, most frustrating way possible, for Russian nationalists at least, taking the gloves off, and finally, we're going to start really striking some of these decision-making centers in Ukraine.

My personal prediction is that at the end of all of this, the best Ukraine can hope for is all of the land, west of the Daniper, not including the Black Sea.

That's my prediction. I'm wondering if you see anything other than the near future of the long future.

You're taking Odessa off the...

I think it's over. I don't think they can afford to not take it.

I agree, a thousand percent. I share that assessment entirely.

And I know it's frustrating. We're all frustrated, but it seems, at least when I avail ourselves of people like McGregor, or Ritter, or so forth, that is the price of following so closely, the Russian military reliance on the Klaushevitzian strategy,

of just slowly, but surely grinding down the military capabilities of your opponent to absolute dust.

So it's so different. I mean, we're all...

You and I are both raised on shock and awe, military tactics.

Shock and awe is supposed to send the enemy running.

We all saw the bombs over Baghdad.

Right, exactly. Clear the strategic area as quick as possible, minimize any kind of combatant casualties on your side, and then occupy until you put your puppet regime in the does the bidding of the US State Department.

And we found that the problem with that is it just doesn't work. I mean, especially with Afghanistan.

Your enemy combatants just simply regroup. They reconstitute in a safe environment in Pakistan.

And because we in the West are suffering from a, you know, if we can close the loop here because we're suffering from a secularized inflicted demographic implosion, they just wait us out.

The average age of your typical Afghan is 18.
