11 hours ago11 hr 2 minutes ago, Mike31mt said:Not with the agreement Trump is proposingThere is nothing in that agreement compelling the Soviets to abide by it. Putin has broken virtually every agreement he's made with his adversaries. I guess were they to break it, Trump would send a few mean tweets Putin's way, but somehow I think Putin would get over that quite quickly.

Good griefOh yes, like the president of Portugal said it, not like the anti-trump social media says it. Hence, the defacto. He isn't taking direct orders, but his hand wringing and waffling and public desperation for a "deal" 100% benefits Putin as if he was. Ukraine and the allies have to calibrate accordingly with the mentality that he is a Russian asset.

When will they be sending their army in to support Ukraine and fight this great enemy

11 hours ago11 hr Yeah this is just like GermanyOh you mean WW2 or 3?No idiot clearly I'm talking about the Franco Prussian war of 1870!
11 hours ago11 hr 42 minutes ago, Mike31mt said:When did Russia try and occupy Vietnam?Dear God, you are literally too stupid to even put into words.
11 hours ago11 hr 11 minutes ago, Mike31mt said:Yeah I just disagree. I get it, you all would like to be permanent benefactors for the Russia-Ukraine war as Russia slowly advances and continues destroying Ukraine and killing all of its military aged men.I don't see the world that way because I'm not a neocon.You clearly don't get it. I would like for Russia to withdraw from Ukraine. If you think Russia will stop with Ukraine, I have a bridge I'd like to sell you....

Trump is a defacto Russian asset because Trump is not so secretly rooting for Russia in this conflict. He wants might is right to be successful, it gives him the excuse to do the equally immoral from Venezuela to Chicago.
11 hours ago11 hr Just now, Mike31mt said:Lol you're even more full of ish than GannanI'm full of ish because I'm aware of history and used an example that torpedoed your entire argument with one post. Got it.
11 hours ago11 hr 1 hour ago, Gannan said:It's exactly like those two conflicts, imperialist super power tries to conquer and occupy a smaller nation whose entire identity revolves around independence and self determination.Curious how this doesn't apply to US in Afghanistan as well since it was much more recent and exactly qualifies

Putin has made it very clear that he wants to recreate the Soviet Union. He has invaded Ukraine. We aren’t talking about a "what if” scenario, we are talking about a currently happening scenario.Also you didn’t answer my last question. Why did you run from the economy thread?

At some point I have to move on to other things.What would you like to know?
10 hours ago10 hr 2 hours ago, Mike31mt said:This is not true.Who is more likely to allow US presence in that region -- a (albeit) smaller Ukraine, or a larger and more resource-rich Russia?Unless we're talking about a hot war, then I reject this notion that we're abandoning anything. Clearly, that's not the case
