In short there is very little the west can do to stop Russia from invading Ukraine. Russia has the 4th largest amount of currency reserves. They have been stockpiling gold and cash since 2014 because they have been planning for an invasion the last 8 years. So sanctions won't do shyt except push Russia further to the China camp which is a mistake if you are interested in stopping China. But you know post Cold War liberal interventionist and neo conservative Washington foreign policy makers haven't been known for their smarts since 2001.

Ukraine's military has improved from 2014 but the amount of firepower Russia is bringing to bear and the manpower they have mobilized tells me it will get ugly fast for Kiev. The fact Russia is going to open another front from Belarus means Ukrainian forces will be forced to keep forces at the capital. What this means they can not reinforce their forces in the south and east. Russia is likely going to take all of eastern Ukraine before the Dnieper and southern Ukraine to create that land bridge like a hot knife through butter. And the firepower they have assembled and still assembling means they are going to go all out to make sure Ukraine becomes a landlocked failed stated reduced to rubble. :francis:

It came to light that a pilot in North Carolina accidentally dropped a nuclear bomb in 1961. 3 of the 4 safeties failed, but the last safety on the bomb prevented it from detonating.

Whataboutism is the best you can do? Framing the Ukrainians as Nazis while ignoring Russia's issues with the same problem shouldn't be ignored. This isn't tlr.


Who helped put them there again? Oh wait you probably don't believe in any of that.

For someone who likes to wax poetic about "Cold War Mindsets" you certainly seem fine with throwing the autonomy and will of entire countries in the bushes when it suits your political bias.

Just own it

Can you point to the Russian version of the Azov Battalion ? Or any neo-nazi para-military group with Nazi symbolism on their helmets within Russias forces ?

Canada is so ashamed of this they won't even answer on it.



Answer those two questions without a personal attack please.

Russia lost 20m people due to the NAZI invasion in just 4 years. That’s at a rate of about 400k people dying a month. The idea of anyone accusing Russia or Russians of propagating Neo Nazism outside of some fringe and likely CIA vice videos in what is essentially a quasi authoritarian state like Putin’s Russia is… well that is ridiculous.

On the other hand, the few politicians that Putin did have some influence on in America (emphasis did, Russia is now an enemy so conveniently they’ve lost all their FSB within the government) like Dana Rohrbacher etc are literal white supremacists who only fucc with Russia because they’re white. That’s the only reason why right wing lunatic Nazi’s en masse worship Putin in America.
