This is exactly why I have said from the very beginning. We need to support Ukraine in this and ensure Russia does not win. Once Ukraine is secured let them join NATO and then change our status in NATO to observers and build up ANZUS. Let Europe worry about Russia while we concentrate other allies on China and the Pacific.
I don’t listen to this guy much, but he articulates what is wrong with Biden’s policy fairly well. I am not in complete agreement with him, but I generally see things this way. Personally, I think he is not critical enough of Biden’s policy.
see, and there you go, just like Putin, hiding behind nukes.
The discussion was about conventional war. In any conventional war Russia would be defeated decisively and quickly. Their Army is ■■■■■ their AF is no match for NATO and their navy is a joke that’s losing the black sea to a country that doesn’t even have a Navy.
The US and the Soviet Union managed to get through the Cold War because of mutual assured destruction (MAD), and the two countries were generally very careful to avoid escalation.
The problem with MAD today is that it requires with rational leadership on both sides. The US has a president with obvious dementia surrounded by neocons who are pushing escalation that would provoke a nuclear response by the US’s own standards.
The White House is out to prove they are so irrational that MAD no longer works. Neocon careers are on the line, so they are willing to risk the lives of billions.
complete ■■■■■■■■■ Who is it that decided to escalate the current situation by attacking north of Karkhiv? There has been no escalation at any time from any western nation, all of the escalation is on Putin and his dangerous “escalate to deescalate” brinksmnship madness.
