Peace missiles, American taxpayer peace funds... and no end-game. No way to get Russia off occupied territories.

IOW, Biden's policy.

Good thing we're in NATO - we get all their enemies and bills, along with all the enemies and bills of non-NATO countries, like Ukraine, Israel, S Korea, Saudi Arabia and more upcoming like Taiwan et al.

Relationships with our leech nation "allies" are all one way.

Except for the fact that the only time Article V was ever invoked was when the United States was attacked on 9/11, and allies came to our aid. Some of who died fighting alongside us in Afghanistan.

You could be right, but then there is the 1991 scenario, no one, certainly not many in 1990 even considered the collapse of the Soviet Union as possible and certainly not as fast as it happened.

I have always thought that the end of this war and any reclaiming of Ukrainian territories by Ukraine would happen not by some miraculous military breakthrough, but because of the economic and political collapse of Russia.

No time table prediction, but is seems much closer than ever before.

The country that was touted self sufficient, had nearly unlimited reserves of men and Soviet equipment, so many shells and missiles that the average Russian was tripping over them walking to work……. Is now reliant on China, NK, and Iran to sustain pitin’s ambitions.

“National wealth fund” is drying up, inflation and interest rates through the roof, can’t defend territory from Ukrainian drone and missile attacks even in Moscow and St. Petersburg (most important to the “all Russians are important” pitin’s power), airports are shut down daily, relying on old and decrepit tankers to move their ever decreasing petro life line….

The man who claimed he could protect Russia if you just gave him unlimited power is looking weak and desperate
