Russia might have been our friend, had we treated Russia in 1991 the same way we treated Germany in 1945.
Germany had total surrender; with reparations. Is that what people wanted in 1991?
This is his Project for a New American Century, a blueprint that Dick Cheney was prominent in drafting.
Everybody who is in power wants to stay in power, and not a one of them gives one hoot about the people who are affected, as long as they remain in power. This goes for Putin, Zelensky, Burden, every Democrat in Congress, every Republican in Congress, and it holds true for your local school board, sheriff, or town council member, too.
The United States should have never invaded Ukraine!
Oh, wait...
Nope.
Russians and Germans are not the same.
Just because the wall fell doesnt mean all the communists went away and embraced different ideology.
Theres plenty still there and even Gorby is still a communist as the Green Cross is a socialist front organization.
Does the article itself make the ludicrous assertion about driving Russia back to the Stone Age or just the headline?
Russia can stop this war at any time.
Russia was never going to be our friend after Putin took power. But we could be at peace if not for the Democrats AKA deep state. Trump had this mostly under control but was sabotaged on all fronts. Horrible tragedy.
Putin is a monster, but the Russian people are not monsters, so the Russian people should not pay for Putin’s sins.
Russophobia is a bizarre poison pushed by warmongering globalists.
Driving Russia away from The West drives Russia further and further into the deadly embrace of China.
That accelerates the problem of the growing power of China.
Imagine China with control over Russian land and Russian natural resources.
That would basically redefine the word superpower.
Meanwhile, The West’s idiotic economic war against Russia is damaging what needs to be a free flow of fuel, fertilizer, and food between countries of European heritage in the Northern Hemisphere.
That free flow of fuel, fertilizer, and food is necessary for humanitarian reasons and for economic reasons, including fighting against inflation, and also for economically disempowering terrorist countries of the Middle East.
It is never good for one country to invade another country. Putin invaded Ukraine, and that was bad.
But people should make no mistake: Biden wants this. Biden wants a wider war. This is not Biden siding with Ukraine to stop Putin The Bad Guy. This is Putin the Bad Guy making Joe Biden very, very happy.
WWI would not have happened if the world had told Austo-Hungary: “Sorry Bosnia killed your Archduke. But we’re not getting involved.”
WWIII (or whatever number you please) wouldn’t happen if the world had told Ukraine: “Sorry Putin is a jerk. But we’re not getting involved.”
Uh? We treated Germany by having it divided under the Soviets? Is that what you want for Russia ? And Germany was kept down and occupied by several countries. Doh. The Soviet Union’s fall never implied getting rid of the Soviet deep state and Denazification
“Russia might have been our friend, had we treated Russia in 1991 the same way we treated Germany in 1945.”
We divided Germany up and occupied it. Germany didn’t have much choice about being our friend.
That kind of thinking can get the US Nuked back into the dark ages.....
[Whew] Just back from Ukraine and putting my tanker coveralls in the laundry now..... Gotta make sure to take all the zip ties out of the pockets. Still have some left. There were not as many fascists hiding in their basements as I planned for but we had to rush out of Irpin due to counterattacks.
What do we do next to Make Russia Russia again?
I didn't know that The Smirking Chimp did that. What a jerk.
If we wanna drive Russia back to the stone age then just encourage more Islamic movement in that country.
