I grew up in the 50’s with the threat of nuclear war every day. I don’t give two craps about Russia or Ukraine. I hope they destroy each other. Both have made politicians in this country, their family members, and big donors very rich. You’re just enabling, and perpetuating that with your support for another proxy war, where there is no national security interest whosoever for this country. Enjoy seeing your tax payer dollars pissed away so that rich people get even richer.
Point 1- “I grew up in the 50’s with the threat of nuclear war every day. I don’t give two craps about Russia or Ukraine. I hope they destroy each other. Both have made politicians in this country, their family members, and big donors very rich.”
IMO- I remember as well as having fire drills & air-raid drills in elementary school. Politicians are like the rest of the population: some are lazy while others are hard-working; some are unscrupulous while others are honest.
Point 2- “You’re just enabling, and perpetuating that with your support for another proxy war, where there is no national security interest whosoever for this country. Enjoy seeing your tax payer dollars pissed away so that rich people get even richer.”
IMO- I do not see this as a proxy war. Rather, I view the U.S. action to intervene preventing renewed ‘empire building’ by Putin/Russian. The focus of Putin actions is to re-claim the break-away republics of old U.S.S.R. as well as gain additional territory, i.e. Africa, Outer Mongolia etc.
Strategically, the U.S. supporting Ukraine is not all about altruism. Rather, cheaper to stop Putin now!
