The bluffs are just getting less and less credible.

If Russia actually tries to take on NATO by themself, for all their bureaucratic faults), get out your 2 million sunblock, because it’s not going to end well, either for Putin, or for the world. Either way, he will lose. The only question is, will he smash the game board.

All Russia has accomplished is that it has shown the world, especially China, that the Russian conventional military is not the juggernaut once so feared and respected. It has given a whole new perspective to NATO and Europe. The Chinese realize that attacking over 90 miles of open ocean with their combat inexperienced army and untested equipment is not sure to be successful. However they can’t help but look at Russia’s underpopulated Siberian treasure house, Russia’s rich far Pacific lands and Russia’s very limited ability to defend them in a whole new light.

Well, we know China is aligned with Russia and supporting Russia and is also learning from this conflict.

For the USA aligned axis and the China aligned axis, the whole intent of this is WWIII and it really has nothing to do with Ukraine’s sovereignty - something they will never achieve now.

Ukraine war is simply a catalyst and that’s why we’re paying for the proxy to fight it.

Nobody will win in this. All of mankind will lose. It’s going to be just horrible for the world. So much death and misery coming.

Do you suppose that when ambitious tyrants realized that the USA was sufficiently in disarray to allow a feckless fool like Biden to be installed into the Presidency, ignoring credible evidence that he was placed there by a fraudulent election and a feckless Supreme Court, they saw a golden opportunity for reckless adventurism?

Do you suppose foreign tyrants--and everyone else--viewed the USA as a deteriorating world power,

crumbling under the weight of its own decadence,

its once might military lead by feckless fools and stocked with homosexuals, transvestites, and pregnant women;

its mighty economy, which won the Cold War, kowtowing to the most ridiculous excesses of wokeism, Mickey Mouse for example succumbing to gender dysphoria;

its borders wide-open,

its streets littered with human excrement and drug paraphernalia,

half its population stymied by which bathroom and which gender pronoun to use?

Do you suppose foreign tyrants saw this as evidence that the Greatest Nation in History was paralyzed by decadence and too sick to defend itself?

Do you suppose this caused Putin to peel off his mask and reveal the monster he actually was?

Do you suppose this is responsible for his attack on Ukraine and all the resulting atrocities?

Do you suppose the attack on Ukraine was a testing of the waters? And that a war against NATO is the real objective?

Do you suppose the Chinese Communists see the same golden opportunity?

Do you suppose other foreign tyrants are thinking the same thing?

All conflicts are dress rehearsals, or test beds for weapon systems and tactics.

About the only good side that I can see to any War if there could actually be a good side... is the advancement in medical procedures and techniques.

This is for all of you people who don’t think we have an interest in supporting Ukraine, where on earth are your minds?

It probably is because that is what the Biden regime and NATO want. That is the part the neocons slugs here don’t grasp.

If Russia is having this much trouble with Ukraine, which at the time of invasion, would best be described as a minor train wreck, what are they going to do when they attacked a disciplined and organized military like, say, Finland or Sweden? They, Russia got their ass handed to them in Afghanistan. Could not handle terrorist in Uzbekistan. And this is the country that has the world trembling in fear that they (Russia) might use nukes?

Reagan put them in their place as did Donald Trump. Russia has shown themselves to be incompetent in making war and war materials. Biden, as a devout communist, not devout Catholic , will get us into trouble that he will not be able to extricate us of difficulty, and the destruction of America will be complete.
