A couple months back, FR was practically a hotbed of anti-Russia sentiment and plenty of ‘patriotic’ conservatives were all in favor of using the American Military for Vlad’s target practice being led by the greatest military mind since Alexander - Barry Obama.
I was saying all the time on this board that it wasn’t our war and we should not get involved in the Ukraine. I got shouted down by the very vocal pro-Ukraine crowd. Bet they weren’t as majority opinion as they made people think.
“and plenty of ‘patriotic’ conservatives were all in favor of using the American Military for Vlad’s target practice”
...and they are the SAME PEOPLE that stood SILENT as our military was GUTTED.
NOW, when we’re at our weakest in nearly 100 years, they want to start WORLD WAR 3. They are some very troubled people.
I’m not too hot on exchanging nukes with Russia, regardless of how strong we are, but one would think they would be willing to wait until we got a bit stronger. Even Reagan understand that he had to limit what we did until he was able to get our military built up enough to be a credible threat.
OTOH, under obama it may be safer to be deployed than disarmed on a military base.
