Stating the obvious:
1. Since the conclusion of WWII, the Soviet Union / Russia has been our chief geopolitical / military adversary. With the exception of a brief respite during Yeltsin's presidency, that continues to this day.
2. No other nation on Earth has as many nuclear-tipped missiles pointed at America's heartland. That, alone, should suffice to prove that Russia is America's sworn enemy.
3. If America allows Russia to rape and pillage Ukraine, if America concedes to Russia the right to "sit at the table" and dictate who may and who may not NATO, that would be only the beginning. You can be sure that it would be only a matter of time before Putin's Russia made further demands, attacked further sovereign states, etc.
4. Anything that weakens Russia, degrades its military, embarrasses it, or isolates it on the world stage is to America's benefit.
Regards,
1. I don't accept this idea of Russia as our "chief geopolitical/military adversary" at all -- at least not anymore. And a reasonable American should seriously consider whether they ever really were. For heaven's sake -- the two nations jointly developed a space station and operated it collaboratively for decades!
2. No other nation on Earth has as many nuclear-tipped missiles pointed at America's heartland. That, alone, should suffice to prove that Russia is America's sworn enemy. First of all, I have no idea how many nuclear-tipped missiles are pointed at America's heartland. Do you? And based on what I know now, I consider it perfectly reasonable for any foreign country to do whatever is necessary to protect itself from predation by the United States.
3. I've heard all of this for decades. Nobody has every convinced me that allowing Ukraine to join NATO -- or even have minimal trade relations with the U.S. -- is even a good idea, let alone a matter of national importance. Any illusions I had about Ukraine went out the window when I watched the President of the United States face impeachment because he dared to expose the corruption of Ukraine's government and its dealings with the similarly corrupt bag of @ssholes who feed at the taxpayer's trough right here in the U.S.
4. Anything that weakens Russia, degrades its military, embarrasses it, or isolates it on the world stage is to America's benefit. Really? That's self-evident? I don't think so. How exactly does America -- and I mean Americans, not the corrupt globalist sh!tbags in Washington, benefit from this?
