“allowing Russia to win is going to send a clear message to China and other adversary states that they can use military force to attack our allies and interests without the risk of any meaningful response?”
Utter nonsense.
Our adversaries would fear a smart nation that conserves resources for the defense of real, essential interests.
They laugh at us burning up resources in places where we have no interests whatsoever.
” the moment countries around the world realise American security guarantees are worth fk all”
That’s a false premise.
The US has made no security guarantee to Ukraine at all.
Nothing.
“You’re not American. Piss off.”
He’s a dependent desperate at the thought daddy warbucks will cut him off and he’ll have to fend for himself.
Yep.....no ‘official’ (i.e., formal Senate-approved) agreements. Only Biden Regime promises (that are worth as much as the lies his BLS and Fed are told to spout).
UKR was never part of NATO, isn’t now. Never even a formally-accepted (by NATO) NATO aspirant.
Yes.
Very clearly.
So not liking Red Square and your precious Kremlin is “racism”? Hahahahaha!!! ROTFLMAO!!!
Let me guess, next you’ll be telling me your preferred pronouns?
How’s it feel to be a loser who advances impotent woke narratives on Free Republic?
No, they are afraid of our military power and would do what they needed to do to achieve their ends if we let them. They need to remain afraid of us if they want to invade other places. What you are saying is utter and total nonsense, so stop smoking crack.
You’re the type of person that would fight an existential war over Somalia to keep the Russians from getting it.
What you don’t understand is that this is not Ukraine nor is it about Somalia. It is about Russia and their aggressive and predatory ways. That is why we help Ukraine so this crap can be stopped. And the sooner it can be stopped the better.
I understand your thinking perfectly.
But myself and a large majority of Americans disagree with it
I think the majority agree with me.
So is the idea of a total Russian victory.
If Russia takes Odessa and controls the entire Black Sea coastline, that would be total victory.
Yes, but they won’t concor Ukraine.Putin could have just taken them and saved everybody trouble.
