Come on, it’s so obvious.

Gin up the war fears, and then “miraculously”, Biden and Kamala swoop in to save the day!.

And they are America’s sweethearts again. As they were in2020 to get rid of Donald J. Trump. All this “I did not get the freebie I was expecting” pouting is forgiven.

“new intelligence that SUGGESTS Russia COULD launch an attack”
“Previous assessments had SUGGESTED”
“COULD begin at any time,”
“THREE SOURCES familiar with the new intelligence”

What new intelligence? Assessments by whom? Who are the sources? BS

These people are ginning up a war no one wants, egging Putin on. If Putin does cross, then he is at risk of being ‘deposed’ at home.

do all 19 agencies agree?


Yes, so “anonymous sources” claim. Its a trick whose purpose is not clear yet, but is guaranteed to harm the US in some major way, just look at the nose dive the stock market took today on news.

The Russians must really suck at keeping military secrets if CNN is able to follow their armed forces every move so closely.

Satellites - pay a fee and you can watch and make your own estimates. Plus Russian military unit IDs are public knowledge.

Hard to believe you’ve been on FR for so long and here you are justifying the theft of an entire nation.

I could care less so long as the US is no longer part of NATO

Western Europe mostly hates us and uses us for our muscle when they get in a bind.

Screw them, we should mind our own business and let them police their own backyards

“Ukraine will be a NATO member in about 10 years.”

Or perhaps as soon as January 20, 2025.

My prediction is, Western Ukraine (L’viv) may be allowed to break-off and join NATO, but not Kyiv.

“Or perhaps as soon as January 20, 2025.”

Even stupid people know DJT would oppose Ukraine’s admission to NATO.

That’s why neocons such as yourselves will vote for somebody else.

Where is the German foreign minister?

Germany is the key to this situation. I believe they are switching sides.

And their payoff may be very substantial.

I wonder how the President of Poland made out in Beijing?

We know how accurate US Intel has been the last few years. Recall the lies they said about Trump and some of his staff, how they uncovered (not) the bomber at the Kabul airport that killed 13 Marines, of how they they selected the target for the retaliatory drone strike in Kabul - the CIA and military intelligence has some problems.

Putin would be wise to rid himself of Austrian Ukraine.

He would be nuts to let Kiev go.

I have a couple in my family tree who emigrated to the US in 1910. The man was born in Kiev, and listed his nationality as “Russian”. The woman was born in Ternopil, and listed her nationality as “Austrian”.

It’s time for Wilsonian foreign policy to finally die.

I say make the same deal we made with the Russians with regards to Austria. Russians left Austria on the condition they would stay neutral and never join NATO. I think that’s reasonable. It keeps the buffer, while allowing the part of the Ukraine more tied to Western Europe to be a part of it.

Sounds like my Polish ancestors who were listed as “German” when they came here.
