The Dems found a sweet spot where it's forever. As long as Americans are not the ones dying. They don't give a crap.

Well, since the Ukraine was one of the members of the USSR for 40 years, I would expect there to be no big change. Especially to US citizens. BUT, keep trying to whip up the war. You are in the minority. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said earlier, Putin can barely takeover a non-NATO country. Meanwhile every other country bordering his (in Europe) is a NATO country save Georgia, which may be fast-tracked.

What do you think happens if Russia takes over Ukraine? the same way it seems to be going right now. it's been two years and no end in sight. ukraine has had about 400k casualties from the war in two years. look, we all agree russia shouldn't have invaded them but they did. now you have to make a choice of what's best for the future of ukraine. do you negoitate a peace deal where russia keeps part of ukraine so the rebuilding of the country can begin? or just keep throwing good money into the country and 2-5 years from now they lose most of their population who are of age to work and have families and so on? it would be a cool story if ukraine managed to beat russia but reality is starting to hit home and it seems the odds of that are getting slimmer by the month. we thought taking the oligarchs money would work, we thought putin was dying, we thought the people of russia would revolt, russia would run out of money etc. none of which has worked. it's just an endless war at this point. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are applying your own feelings again Tibsy. I didn't say that it was a good thing if Russia takes over the Ukraine. NO ONE thinks that it is. BUT, it is NOT a "domino", it is NOT a huge problem for the American people. Take your "Putin Fear" someplace else. Adults want the war to end. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advocating to allow a revanchist country to run roughshod over any country they want is anti-war now. Weird world you all live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact they are fighting so hard does seem to indicate it would be a pretty big change and one they clearly don't want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck there. Moldova says they want permanent neutrality, but if Ukraine falls, that will likely change and NATO will admit them immediately.

Another stellar take that likely originated in Moscow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
