Russia should back down and pull its army back within its own borders.

That is how this has always worked. When the working class population gets a little too unruly and the threat of rebellion against the establishment is at hand, the elites start a war. It’s like clockwork. This tactic weakens the general population, wears down the number of fighting age men that might have otherwise presented a threat to the ruling class and creates enough fear and panic to convince the public to trade away more of their freedoms.

Maybe you've got the cart before the horse... maybe the goal is to gin up citizen rage ... not to distract from it.

Russia has to have at least one active ally for this to be a ‘World War’.

Otherwise it’s just going to be forty or so countries allied in the reduction of the Soviet threat.

This is what the cheese eating surrender monkeys said in the 80’s about Afghanistan.

We should let the Soviets conquer any country it wanted lest we have a nuclear WWIII.

I can’t figure out exactly why USA neocons and deep-staters have such a hard-on for militarizing Ukraine and are so willing to ensure it is totally destroyed in conflict with Russia.

After WWII, the USA and Soviet Union agreed the Soviets would withdraw from Austria, and the country would be NEUTRAL. Seemingly both sides respected the agreement, Austria had no military alliances, it threatened no one - and it became RICH and STABLE.

US neocons and MIC have absolutely resisted such a path for Ukraine for the last 20 years - and now the place is broken forever.

At the onset of the Russian incursion into Ukraine I argued in my article ‘Order Out Of Chaos: How The Ukraine Conflict Is Designed To Benefit Globalists‘ that US boots would be on the ground within a few months. I was wrong... It means that Russian troops are fighting Ukrainian soldiers that are intermingled with western “advisors”

Author is constantly wrong.

Ukraine is the worlds largest money laundromat, and 8 figure per year employment agency for politicians prodigal sons

[FreeReign]

Well Ukraine is a proxy for the globalists. Nevermind the 44 million people of Ukraine who are being used.

And as far as Putin being a proxy for the anti globalist people, he's has of course been a complete and utter failure. Unsurprisingly.

[McGruff]

It’s a short sighted foreign policy. We will feel the effects of it for as long time.

I can see by the majority of responses to this essay that the neocon plague has once again descended upon FreeRepublic.

[refreshed]

What if they had a world war 3 and no one showed up? They’ll show up. They always do.

[aMorePerfectUnion]

I said this on day one.

Let’s Russia has its army destroyed in Ukraine and this will lead to World War.

Why?

A) Russia is stupid
B) Russia is drunk
C) Russia is too proud to be so embarrassed
D) Russia is holding back its REAL army for the big one (that Putin guy is playing lakh-dimension chess while we are playing tiddlywinks)

[YogicCowboy]

The continual connections of Ukraine with the DNC, with the Deep State, with the globalists, and with the US bio-labs, leads me to conclude that this was long planned - and not at all for the given reasons.

‘Proxy war’...that’s exactly what Pastor Adams said about the Ukraine situation.
