Already only up to comment #10 and their are 6 Comrades and Pooty Pals chiming in or having posted this Pat piece in the first place. Let’s just ignore them and let this thread die on the vine.
Bottom line is this at the end of the posted article at the original site: “The Polish missile incident, and the noisy clamor that arose for retaliation against Russia for hitting a NATO country, exposed the risks inherent in our many treaty commitments, where we are obliged to go to war for scores of nations, most of which are not remotely related to the security or vital interests of the United States.”
Pat talks about the “noisy clamor that arose for retaliation” when the 2 Polish people died from what was probably a Ukraine missle shot to try to destroy the Russian aggressor’s missile attempts to destroy their winter power. I pay a lot of attention to both MSM and Public Interest news, and there was only sympathy from NATO country leaders for Ukraines need to defend itself from the vicious invader, Russia.

No wonder Pats political efforts never took off successfully, he does not understand that the majority of Americans are well aware Russia is not our friend and unlikely to be one as long as Putin and his like are in power. Many are very happy to see Russia burn through its conventional arms without American troops involved in any significant amount. Slava Ukraine! Most Americans realize that this fight is definitely related to the security and vital interests of the United States.
It was only those opposed to the US and NATO supporting Ukraine making these claims, and are still making them after Poland, the US and NATO have moved on.
Then there is the unasked question. What was Ukraine firing a S-300 at, along the Polish Ukranian border, during one of the largest Russian missile attacks so far? The answer to that might be more of a esclation than a errant Ukranian missile.
