[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

In Russia's view, we started it by setting out to tank their economy. It is a non-weapons war now. I expect this to escalate into an attempt to somehow tank our economy.

I know everyone will say "but they started it by invading Ukraine." I am talking about Russia's view. To them that is none of our business and the U.S is the instigator.

I would have let them have that piece of Ukraine, if they Ukraine (mostly ethnic Russians) voted to go. The same thing happened to East Germany.

Instead, we have forced Russia into having only raw nationalism and war as an option.

Doesn’t seem wise.

Doesn’t excuse any atrocity committed there.
