Putin should have gone after the Baltics. I don’t think Biden is willing to nuke Russia over the Baltics.

Why would NATO have to go nuclear to defend the Baltics?

200,000 troops in the Baltics. NATO would have to threaten to use nuclear weapons to defend the Baltics. Otherwise, after the Russians take it, it'll become Russian territory and if we try to retake it, they'll use nuclear weapons on NATO.

Russia could have moved 200,000 troops into position to invade the Baltics without NATO countering with Baltic defenses, threats to Russian massed troops, combined with threats to Russian cities, and preparations for the elimination of the Russian Navy and Air Force?

“Just let Putin have Ukraine, he promises he has no more territorial ambitions after that”

Stop it. This tired old analogy is getting shopworn. It is not 1939 and Putin is not Hitler. The Russians can’t even beat a miserable pipsqueak power like Ukraine. How are they going to take on NATO (the USA)?

” U-Toob history professor”

No, stupid, you claim to be the U-Toob history professor by wanting people to watch such crap and claiming those videos make you knowledgeable. You’re a vidiot. Typical millennial.

It’s July 1914 and the NeoCons want to fight WW3 over the borders of the Donbass.

“If you don’t know history, you will see it again.”

Nonsense. It’s just another ethnic border war between cousins. Europe has been fighting those for hundreds of years.

OK, hide in the corner somewhere and convince yourself there is something new under the sun.

Why should I? This is like I said. I’ll say it again. Another ethnic border war between cousins. Europe has been having those for hundreds of years. We have no business getting involved in them.

Putin will be remembered as Vlad the Mad ‘Wan-a-be’ Tsar.
