Scott Bennett, a former US Army Special Operations officer, psychological warfare expert, whistleblower and Sputnik pundit, passed away on Thursday, November 21 in Walnut Creek, California. He was 46.
Bennett’s colleagues and friends shared the sad news, expressing their deep grief over the loss of an American patriot, truth-seeker, and relentless advocate for peace.
Scott’s comrades-in-arms revered him as a distinguished officer in the US Army’s elite Special Operations Forces, while international reporters highly valued his advice and analyses on pressing geopolitical issues.
«The Democrat establishment and national security/military-industrialist deep state in America is trying to tie [the Ukraine] conflict against Russia around Donald Trump’s neck,» he said at the time. He had no doubts that Russia would eventually prevail: «The military mathematics shows very clearly the overwhelming victory that will inevitably come to Russia,» he told Sputnik.
The legacy of this fearless warrior and sincere man with a big heart will remain in the memory of his family, friends, colleagues, and millions of readers around the globe.
