President Biden said Friday he plans to send a small number of U.S. forces to Eastern Europe in the “near term” amid growing fears of a possible Russian invasion of Ukraine.

“I’ll be moving troops to Eastern Europe in the NATO countries in the near term,” Biden told reporters at Joint Base Andrews upon returning from a trip to Pittsburgh. “Not too many.”

“Not many” should be just enough to meet a “small incursion.”

“Not too many.”

Either he does not get the idea of deterrence, or he is not on board with it.

How many is sufficient to credibly deter 200,000 Russian soldiers?

And then ISIS will send more troops to Eastern Europe over and above the number they have all ready infiltrated.

Obama sent airborne soldiers to Ukraine. Brandon isn’t even doing that. Funny how Fake News has memory holed that.

What an odd statement. Sounds like when he flubbed a line and said Russia could do a “minor incursion”.

He’s been trying on his General Patton costumes a Hollywood pal made for him. Gives him the feel of a tough, hardhitting general.

There he goes, Old Blood and Guts.
- Yeah, our blood, his guts.——

GIs in the movie Patton (and it now applies to Biden).

Biden: “I will be deploying troops to NATO countries... but not too many.”

ChicagoConservative27: “Warmonger POS”

This reaction does not compute. How is a token, PC, irrelevant gesture made to look tough—without being tough, even sabotaging it in the same sentence by saying “not too many,” equate to “warmongering”?

NATO should be fully mobilizing every time Russia has an army of 100,000 or more fully mobilized that could threaten NATO countries. It doesn’t matter if the Russkies claim it’s for “training purposes.” The Russkies have done every single invasion since the 1950s under the cover of “training exercises” or “maneuvers.” And Russia is directly threatening all NATO countries in Eastern Europe, stating they should be abandoned by NATO.

If Biden, himself, stood in front of the Russian troops (”at the Eastern Front”), Putin would be checkmated.

He’s gonna do it even though the Grand Poobah of Ukraine says, “Don’t do it. We’re fine.”
