Neo-cons are back in driver seat

We have.

Better tell that to POTUS.

I don’t think he knows.

Operation cyclone.

St Ronnie was a neocon in disguise.

Who knew…

That’s par for the course.

Who says I am wrong?
Who says you are right?

Who benefits from a nuclear war?

Unless you are thinking no one is thinking that far ahead?

It was designed as defensive and nature.

However…tell me…how was it threatened by Serbia?

There’s design, and there’s actuation.

I think that’s what people are talking about.

NATO was used offensively in Serbia, obstensibly for a “humanitarian cause”.

But they didn’t get UN OK to do that, so NATO nations violated the UN Charter.

What do you think Russia sees from that?

Thought those were UN sanctioned operations. Were you against those as well?

Of course Clinton/Obama was in office at those times so one has to ask if your stance is purely partisan.

I didn’t say anything about newklear

So right now the democratic administration is levying sanctions on russia and sending support to Ukraine.

How is that indicative of EU expansionist policy?

What did Libya do to cause NATO to defend itself and wipe it out?

Something happened between the Iraq war and now to have the left and neocons come together for endless wars. Dems are neocons now!

Why shouldn’t Ukraine, a sovereign nation, be expected to pursue alliances and memberships that suite their interests? And in return, if it suits their interests, why shouldn’t these alliances and memberships entertain the discussion?

A NATO/Russia conflict makes nuke war 99.9999% likely.

So who benefits from trying to push a direct confrontation?

They can, as long as they can defend themselves from the consequences.

Good question. How did an alliance with Ukraine suit the West’s interests?

Why should they expect a consequence of invasion for pursuing the interests of their sovereign country?

Should Europe only do what Putin lets them do?

Since they are neither a member of NATO or the EU, I would suggest the West has thus far reached the conclusion that it doesn’t.

We were there though, helping to pull Ukraine towards our orbit and away from Russia’s.

We helped the Maidan happen.
