Why do you care about a conflict on the other side of the globe when our own border is wide open to invasion?
~~~
I care. At least, let’s just say I am interested.
Not only do I enjoy history, but also current events.
What makes you think I’m for intervention in the conflict?
I never said that I was.
In fact, the point I was making that is lost on almost everyone who replied to my post was that a statement like Putin’s indicates (to me at least) that he is likely to invade. Why would he bring up (bluff or not) the use of nukes if he is not invading.
But either way, I don’t think the U.S. should police a conflict in Europe. Where is the EU. This is their back yard
Putin is bluffing, it’s all hyperbole. We’ve war-gamed this in our heads and it’s all under control. Using our game theory computer programs we’ve decided the russkies will never use nukes. When the neo-cons get the war they think they want it will turn into a sh*t show, and it will end in tears.
