I feel for the Ukrainians, but I have questions.
But the biggest question is: why are Americans hanging on every doing within this incident?
It has taken over national networks so that we can’t watch any other news!
At least talk about how this might affect us right now to at least have something besides the invasion.
This is a lot like the Yugoslav stuff. Not sure why we have to be so focused on it.
Maybe because this one has the real potential to blow up the entire planet?
Unless Putin is somehow stopped, his aggression is not going to stop in Ukraine.
(What other ‘news’ do you want to know about?)
“But the biggest question is: why are Americans hanging on every doing within this incident?“
Maybe because one wrong shell or bomb it could explode into the rest of Europe or go nuclear .
Commodity markets have zoomed higher creating yet another huge risk.
Another rocket stage was ignited under the inflation rocket.
An ugly truth is that we have conveniently forgotten the thousands of nuclear weapons in the world .
A nuclear exchange is a definite possibility somewhere in the world and this war shows that reality .
Very, very similar.
Putin has apparently invaded Ukraine to ensure the independance of the DPR and LPR republics: and to prevent the current Ukranian regime from attacking them anymore.
This casus belli is eerily similar to Kosovo.
Kosovo wasn't US territory. It's independance was assured by American arms, including *months* of bombardment of Belgrade.
If Kosovo's independance can be assured by the might and valor of the US, why can't Russia step in to help Russophones literally on its border?
