Re: 4 - A reminder about the Powell Doctrine (modified Weinburger Doctrine) when considering military action by the US:

1. Is a vital national security interest threatened?
2. Do we have a clear attainable objective?
3. Have the risks and costs been fully and frankly analyzed?
4. Have all other nonviolent policy means been fully exhausted?
5. Is there a plausible exit strategy to avoid endless entanglement?
6. Have the consequences of our action been fully considered?
7. Is the action supported by the American people?

“Code Pink” Freepers are trying to tell us that Ukrainians are evil Pole killers and we should hate them for that.

At the same time Poland just donated 100 tanks to Ukraine and they’re not a rich country. Their economy is 40 times smaller than American and yet they did that!

Ukrainians don't see the combined letters of N and I as nazi. N&I means National Idea. A heretic thought that Ukrainian is a nation and not just a lower version of Russians speaking a redneck dialect as the Kremlin says.

As for your question ... and you said

>I wait

Here is the head of the Russian Wagner company killing Ukrainians right now.

This isn’t a NATO country so why are we using our own taxpayer money in a country that we are supposedly not at war with?

We are going broke in America and being invaded every day from our southern border and Joe Biden isn’t done yet trying to start wars for domination all over the planet. He and his guy Jake Sullivan have been bullying too many countries to do their bidding and it is pissing people off.

No reason for all this except for the WEF/NWO satanists agenda.

Ask yourself, what good is life if you are a slave to Biden, Soros and Schwab?

There are other people in this world. I think it was the Lithuanians that first donated equipment post-invasion. The bulk of arms shipments to date are European, not from the US.

So my life choices are BS and BS or BS or BS?

I think I’ll go with BS or BS.

BS and BS sounds like to much BS.

For the sake of the general strategic situation. The independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine is a good thing for general peace and stability. As was that of China or Czechoslovakia or Finland in 1939.

And its a drop in the bucket, in the context of the galactic scale of US Federal spending.

Welcome to life. You are presented with poor information and bad choices, its up to you to extract truth and choose correctly. This “information” problem has been used as a disproof of rationalism and the necessity of faith.

Most of Europe doesnt see itself as slaves to Biden Soros or Schwab. Most here would look at you funny if you suggested that. Even Spanish Vox (the rightiest right wing in Spanish politics) would think you are verging on the deep end.

The Ukrainians cannot defeat Russia

The Vietnamese cannot defeat the US

The Afghans cannot defeat Great Britain/Russia/US

The Israelis cannot defeat Arab world ('48,'56,'67,'73)

It's not about if they CAN, it's about if they can maintain and strengthen the WILL to do so.

This Russia ain't their grandfathers Russia.

I think I made a bad choice. Just 2 posts after mine and I’ buried in BS.

It isnt my face that is bald unfortunately, but the top of my head.
And I’m not American. There is a whole world out there that has other political problems independent of American ideas or fears.

And thats what you all are looking at in the case of Ukraine. That other world.

Meanwhile, Ukraine's Nazi problem is undeniable and well documented.
