Zeepers are so lame, shortsighted, and stupid. Playing, as you do, straight into the hands of the Globalist/formerlyAmerican Left. I trust you’re proud of being on Jao-Jao Beidan’s team.
“Globalist”
I thought globalhomo was the word of the decade.
Let me explain what I see as the problem.
When the Soviet Union fell, part of their inventory of nuclear weapons were in Ukraine. Ukraine was persuaded to give these up, and one of the inducements was a guarantee of territorial integrity from western nations.
Fast forward a few years and Russia takes Crimea. A few years later, they are back wanting more of Ukraine.
Now, if the west does not help Ukraine, tell me what is going to happen the next time a small country ends up with a few nukes? And don't tell me it cant happen -- it already did.
Especially one that does not have the technical expertise to maintain them. They "go bad" after a period of non-maintenance. The temptation to use them before that happens is going to be very powerful. And they will look at the history of Ukraine and think "western promises are worthless".
This is the kind of stuff that leads to a very destructive WWIII.
Am I stupid or have many of us forgotten recent history? Maybe those who ignore our commitments are lame and shortsighted.
