SHOCKING: This 7-year-old video suggests Russia-Ukraine war was planned

Was the war in Ukraine planned ahead of time?

In a shocking clip from 2016 that has just emerged, it seems that may be the case.

In it, Senator Lindsey Graham tells Ukrainian soldiers, “Your fight is our fight. 2017 will be the year of offense.”

“All of us will go back to Washington, and we will push the case against Russia. Enough of a Russian aggression, it is time for them to pay a heavier price,” Graham continued. “Our fight is not with the Russian people but with Putin.”

Standing behind Graham was John McCain, looking at the ground.

“Our promise to you is to take your calls to Washington, inform the American people of your bravery, and make the case against Putin to the world,” Graham added.

“Wow, talk about a warmonger,” Pat Gray says, shocked. “That guy has never met a war he wasn’t in love with.”

Glenn Beck finds it fascinating that the exchange happened right after the election.

“You’re speaking as though the war is going to begin the next year and the decision’s already made. We’re going to go to war with Russia,” he says, asking, “Isn’t it weird that after Donald Trump, we didn’t really hear anything about Ukraine? We heard ‘Russia, Russia, Russia.’”

Even odder is the fact that as soon as Donald Trump left office, the first thing we were faced with was war in Ukraine.

Glenn debates whether or not this is a coincidence — whether it didn’t happen not only because “of who Donald Trump was” but “because the Russians knew exactly what the warmongers were going to do under a Biden administration.”
