“I can believe that an army like that is indiscriminately firing out of frustration.”

Agree with you there but I can also believe Zelensky is a Soro’s puppet and would put a hard spin on a story to gain sympathy.

Could Putin be doing this so he doesn’t have WMD on his borders? If so I don’t blame him. We did something similar with Cuba during Kennedy.

All I know for sure is that I don’t want American troops in this mess.

I guess it's a matter of perspective.

I thought that NATO was a defensive pact that wasn't looking to invade countries. They might be growing the membership of NATO, but I don't think they were doing so in order to amass an overwhelming invasion force.

On the other hand, I think the Soviet worldview is that everyone is an aggressor, just like them. I think that Putin sees threats everywhere, where NATO sees human interest everywhere. NATO can say they won't be a threat to Russia, and Putin will say it's a lie. Putin will say that NATO is hiding chem weapons to use against Russia, because Russia has chem weapons to use against NATO.
