Did Alex Jones predict a February 2022 war between Ukraine and Russia?

By Ed Payne
NO

American conspiracy theorist and InfoWars host Alex Jones did allege a war was coming in February 2022. However, he did not predict that it would be between Ukraine and Russia.

On Oct. 21, 2021 Jones said that "the smart money is on a war with China."

An edited version of his monologue is on Facebook, which selectively omits the word China.

This fact brief is responsive to conversations such as this one.
