Col Doug Macgregor: Military Power v. Economic Power (Video)
In this 25 January 23026 published video, host Daniel Davis talks with Col Doug Macgregor who argues that the era of large-scale military interventions and alliances like NATO is over, claiming they are outdated relics of a past world order. In today’s world, economic productivity—not military force—is the true basis of power, and without economic strength, military power cannot be sustained. They criticize Western leaders and retired generals for clinging to Cold War thinking, mischaracterizing Russia and China, and failing to adapt to global changes, particularly China’s model of state capitalism.
They contend the U.S. should have decisively ended NATO’s confrontational stance toward Russia, normalized relations, and forced a settlement in Ukraine, which they describe as already defeated. Historically, they argue, wars ended when leaders prioritized stopping destruction over ideological victory—something lacking today.
If NATO collapses, the speaker predicts Europe would reorganize into regional, culturally aligned security zones rather than descend into chaos. They emphasize that culture, history, and geography—often ignored by Americans—will shape these new arrangements.
On Iran, the speaker warns that the U.S. and Israel are likely heading toward an undeclared war involving expanded targets, leadership assassinations, and infrastructure destruction. They argue earlier Western attempts to destabilize Iran through protests and covert actions failed, leaving military conflict as the remaining option. Iran, they claim, fully expects an attack and is preparing for it. Overall, the speaker sees current Western policy as driven by outdated ideas, escalation, and wishful thinking rather than realism, restraint, and economic engagement.
