When I was younger I was all America right or wrong. I started changing when I noticed those ginning up conflict overseas also tend to be those dismantling the country I love right here at home.

The idea Russia would go into the baltics or Poland now is fantastical and far form reality.

Russia is having a hell of a time in Ukraine as it is.

The Baltics are part of NATO and unless Russia sent all of their best at Poland they’d likely get their asses handed to them and the world laughing when much of Western Russia wound up under Polish or NATO occupation.

Yeah right. Because Russia ( formerly known as the Soviet Union) is such a peaceful land that cares about freedom

Its not a matter of “capbale” but willingness. Biden doesnt want to solve the border problem, Ukraine or not.

It would be consistent with the general US policy of prolonging every conflict as much as possible to result in maximum destruction and misery.

Look at Kurt’s background. He spent many years working as a mercenary stooge for globalists.

If he was a real American he’d leave the item about the combat tour in Kosovo off his resume.

Sometimes Kurt Schlichter is a simple-minded fool.

For Ukraine to win, Russia would have to have regime change. Keep in mind, who is Ukraine? Ukraine is Klaus Schwab, WEF, Hillary and Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, Barack Obama, George Soros’ Renaissance Fdn, John Brennan, John Kerry, Victoria Nuland, Eric Ciarmella, Alex Vindmen, Geoffrey Pyatt, Nazi Svoboda political party, Pravy Sektor fighters, etc.

Don’t fall for the statement that a Jew president can’t be Nazi. That’s absolutely ridiculous. If Nazi Germany killed kill Irish Catholics instead of Jews, Christians and other political opponents, they wouldn’t be Nazis? Of course they would. If you believe they wouldn’t have been Nazis, you had better go and get an education.

But is Nazi rule the end game? Of course not. These Nazis are simply being used and abused to get Russia out of the way of the one-world government goal - they’re simply suckers for the Soros Renaissance Fdn/CIA/U.S. State Department/dark money cash. Ukraine, win, lose or truce, either way, will be much worse off in the end, that’s already evident. Everyone paying attention knows that. The USA will also be worse off, that’s already evident. People sucking up the propaganda, they don’t know what to think and they don’t really care to think, so they follow and echo the talking point that Russia started all of this and should be punished for doing so, when that is so far from the truth it’s not even comprehendible.

Reagan said explicitly that the amnesty agreement was his biggest failure as president.

The domino theory was advanced after North Korea and North Vietnam were already under communist governments, likewise China. So Cambodia, which didn’t remain communist and South Vietnam are it... When they spoke of the domino theory, they were saying Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia would all fall... as well as Burma, India. Malaysia had a small communist insurgency which was defeated easily by the UK... no dominoes falling...

I don’t believe any other American should be sent to do so.

The Neo-Con vein of this nation IS the most dangerous and corrupt faction in our Republic.
***Is Trump a NeoCon? I’m a PaleoCon. Donald Trump completely supports Ukraine including more military aid to Ukraine than Biden has given.

Who knew that Donald Trump was a Soros globalist stooge? Your Putinist Appeaser heads must be exploding as your narrative falls apart.

America is no longer a Christian nation, and our leaders, for the most part, are corrupt, power-mad satanists - so they are happy to see nations destroyed and in conflict for decades to achieve their goals.
***Satanists? Let’s just for a moment assume that this is true. What can be done about it?

My approach, from my home page:


Secession

It’s time for us to jettison those who reject our national values because there’s no changing them. Time to secede.

We should extend the invitation to secede on a county by county basis.

While we’re at it, since we’d be forming a new country, we should extend the invitation to counties in Canada and Mexico as well.

Note that this option is becoming increasingly popular.

Very true, we must all fight bleed and die if necessary to ensure our corrupt kleptocracies remain whole, be you Ukrainian, Russian, or American.

Kurt has lost his mind.

I’m pretty sure he missed Putin’s speech to the world press, before he launched operations.

Kurt would do well to remember a similar scenario when JFK responded the very same way, over the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Now for Putin it’s a bio-warfare era, together with nuclear capabilities and the potential risk of losing access to the Black Sea, as NATO expansion would happily use it as leverage against Russia.

Throw in the long ensconced Neo-Nazi jack boots running those eastern cities cruelly and Putin is forcing some security measures for Russia, on Ukraine and NATO Biden’s hatred.

____________________________________________________

Who knows what Trump really is? If “fully supporting” Ukraine means only giving slightly more weapons to Ukrainian resistance (and that’s all), then I’m not sure why you think Trump’s foreign policy is so much better than Biden’s. But I rather fancy you don’t know what Trump thinks; and I doubt that you are as “Paleo Con” as you say you are. This nation has way too many problems to be sending resources to anywhere else. Do you lose sleep at night knowing that Ukraine got invaded by Russia? It’s Europe’s problem way more than ours. In fact, it’s all their problem. They have the resources, population, and cash to stop him if they desire. If Woke Capitalism is worthy of being spread around the globe, then it’s time to pony up the blood and treasure to do so. Not one more dime, missile, bomb, or bullet from us.
