The video below has allegedly gone viral. I made this brief comment:

Jeffrey Sachs is extremely one-sided. Everybody should know how Finland, Poland and the Baltic states regard Russia. Putin himself is not at all shy about Russia’s imperial ambitions. How often do we hear key people in Islam talk about converting the world – by violence if necessary? The symbol of Islam is the sword. Hasn’t Sachs noticed? Does he not know the history of Islam? What should Israel do about Islam’s stated objective to destroy the Jewish people? These are fundamental questions about which you don’t need a professorship to understand. War and defence of your country and culture are sometimes a dirty business. The Americans are far from infallible, but I’m on the side of those combating enemies who want to destroy the West. What skin does Sachs have in the game?
