It’s hard straddling the middle position as it is so easy for me to blow off all the warmongering crap from the John Boltons of the world. I’m not sure how I should regard the Ukraine. I use to sympathize with them, and then they took bribes from the Bidens and co-authored a fake pee gate report on Trump. But on the other side of this once the Ukraine falls, then goes Poland. Saying that we are seeing the huge cost to the Russians of making this play. I don’t know they can afford to keep in the Ukraine, let alone Poland.
I would not want to be a Russian soldier stationed in occupied Ukraine. I don’t think it’s going to be very pleasant.
Poland will not be attacked by Russia. Poland is not a border state lying on the historical invasion routes into Russia’s heartland. If you look, all the dominos have been falling to NATO. The last two dominos left to fall are Ukraine and Belarus. Russia will fight WWIII to prevent NATO armor sitting directly in its border. The Baltic States are not nearly so provocative or destabilizing. Under similar circumstances, the US would have long ago stopped a similar encroachment of the most powerful alliance the world has ever seen. Especially if that alliance was as virulently anti American as NATO is anti Russian. Absolutely we would have gone to war. Look at our track record.
