Vietnam taught us nothing.
Boy... You stepped in it here with this. But I came to a similar conclusion a few weeks ago. But I think not supporting EITHER side is the reality of it. Both sides are negative, supporting either side is negative.
But the reality is Putin is trying to protect his country from the Global Communism that is destroying ours right now. As you say... Judge it by who in power is supporting the Ukraine... All evil Communists at it’s base and direction.
But in turn while I recognize Putin’s intestinal fortitude to fight against the globalists, the way he is doing it is evil and ruthless and also wrong. We do not have to pick a side, not supporting either side is the most logical and rational option based on the reality of the situation.
Giving support to “None of the above” is probably the most intelligent option at this point in the game. We do not have to be let them manipulate us with their psyops propaganda agenda.
Sad but true.
“20 years in A’stan for that, huh?
We stayed long after Bin Laden was dead.
We then left the al Qaeda billions in weapons.
Don’t be gullible.”
Because the Taliban for religious reasons had almost completely eradicated the Opium production. This could not be allowed to happen. It would have ruined the hidden CIA global drug business. We needed to be there to protect those flowers no matter what narrative it took to do this...

You know it! The CIA transports more drugs than the Mexican cartels. I spent a little time in Thailand and learned this first hand.

Yep, our problem is we trust too much and do not read between the lines. There is almost always an ulterior motive, follow the money and you will find the “why”, and no matter how crazy it sounds Occam’s Razor usually does apply.
There is always “more to the story” and unseen variables...
We also have an issue with only seeing the bad and absolutely refusing to recognize any good at all in situations. The Taliban eradicating the Opium production was a good thing, no matter who or what faith happened to get it done.
But you this... We are brainwashed into picking a side and going all in for it or against it with no compromise. While in the meantime it provides the distraction and environment for the greedy to sneak in the backdoor and rob all parties involved.
Well you are on the right track. God calls the shots but Trump and Putin are working together. The illegal and never forget that they are illegal cabal in DC are on life support. If it wasn’t for the MSM they would all be hanging from light posts on Pennsylvania Ave.
That should have been... “But you know this”. :)
Bla bla bla
We didn’t go into Afghanistan for the reason stated so the post was ridiculous. And it was the poorly executed withdrawal that led to the attack in Ukraine.
And we didn’t go into Iran to protect British Oil Companies in the 50’s either right? Wrong...
They have been at this brainwashing and manipulation a long time... And it appears to be working very well on the ignorant and trusting.
Hey idiot, the United States, a world power on which billions depend, and btw our home, cannot make its decisions or react to what our adversaries do - based on you going on about what “we” did in the fifties.
If you don’t understand what is going on in 2022 that’s your problem. Spare me your ignorance.
And death to Putin.
Now that I reread your post I realize you are claiming “they” brainwashed us since the 50’s to stand up to the Soviet Union - SUCCESSFULLY.
Shove your “they brainwashed us since the 50’s” right up there with your brain.
I'm not sure we really have a dog in this fight. I think we can all agree that it would be better if they weren't fighting but beyond that, no one has really laid out a good reason why the US should get very involved in this conflict.
We didn’t need to be in Afghanistan that long. He is correct. Biden blew up children and a guy refilling water bottles just to change the narrative for one day.
No he’s not correct because that’s not what he said. He said we invaded Afghanistan because their government was corrupt then he went on about invading Iran in the 1950’s.
Enough with this kook propaganda.
I really like FR vanities. Most vanities are very insightful and add to the conversion. This is not one of those times.
You bet I know it. It is why I am dismayed at all the visceral reactions to hate Russia on FR.
Mexico is far more a dangerous nation doing damage to the US than anyone else, yet, no calls for war with Mexico.
Backing malware by malicious actors attempting to take over a Linux server under the premise that support of the malicious actors will result in their self-destruction? It simply does not follow that the US should be backing power-hungry oppressor Putin. The reason Putin is currently undergoing his own purge is because of opposition by the West, and to back up Putin means he would be justified in his conquest, while making the West guilty of immorality, and implicitly support a Chinese conquest of Taiwan.
“Putin is against the NWO only because he want his own version of it.”
Pay the man! Putin wants to be the NWO head honcho.
