China will fill the void long before Turkey can do jack squat. China has a military that can conquer Siberia. Turkey can barely conduct operations into Syria which is right next door.

The Soviet Union actually proposed an arrangement in 1954 (I think) where they would join NATO.

The Warsaw Pact was created in 1955 in response to NATO's rejection of this proposal.

Turkey?? In a generation, a majority of children will be Kurdish. Turkey is no threat in the long run

It’s pretty clear that the purpose of this war in Ukraine was to bring Russia under the control of the Neocons (which is the case now for practically all of Europe).
1. Putin created this war.
2 .If you think neoconservatives run Europe, you have no understanding of the term

Ukraine isn’t fascist. And their rest of your argument is a tu quoque fallacy to justify going Lord Haw Haw for Red China and KGB Russia

The Asia Times isn’t communist propoganda. Communist propoganda is what supporters of KGB Russia and Red China spew

“1. Putin created this war.
2 .If you think neoconservatives run Europe, you have no understanding of the term”

1. ...and Israel created the 1967 war.
2. You’re welcome to define terms as you please. I’ll stick with the definitions as they appear throughout the media and elsewhere.

Russia is successfully in control of the two separatist territories. Ukraine lacks the wherewithall to dislodge the Russian and separatist forces.

In that sense, Russia has won. But, since Ukraine did not actually control the territories, they were not lost to the Russians.

Russian forces invding elsewhere were decimated. That is, they lost. The Ukraine forces therefore repelled them and won

Ukraine is severely war torn and damaged. Russian military is but a shadow of what it was before the failed invasion. Russia is under debilitating sanctions and is economically withering on the vine.

Russia is clearly the loser at this point with Europe against it and piling on with the economic destruction of sickly Mother Russia.

I was being kind you amateur. I said fascist as a euphemism for Nazi dominated, which they clearly are. Stop being a neocon shill.

Interesting that to you, WEF, DC, London, NATO, the EU, Uke fascism, globohomo are not the biggest dangers facing Americas freedom and the authors of our ongoing destruction. Thanks for outing yourself.

1. I suppose by existing, Israel created the Six Day War. But your assinine tu quoque fallacy is false on three grounds: A. Israel didn't start the war. The Arabs went to war with Israel in 1947 and 1948 and there was no formal peace treaty ending it.
B. The United Arab Republic (Egypt and Syria) breached the ceasefire by blockading Israel and firing artillery into Israeli communities. These were acts of war.
C. Israel faced an existential threat in 1967 with Arab leaders calling for the destruction of Israel and the the Mediterranean to be turned red with Jewish blood. And they were whipped into a frenzy by the Soviet Union, which lied to the ARabs that Israel was mobilizing before Arab attacks. Fortunately for those not allied with the Soviet Union then and KGB today, the Communist Jihad of 1967 failed.
Your beloved KGB Russia faced no existential threat in 2022 from Ukraine. 2. I didn't define any thing. Neoconservatism isn't liberal internationalism. Jeane Kirkpatrick was a neoconservative. No one in the Biden-Harris administration is. Neither is any European head of state or NATO leader I can think of.

Stop onannizing to your perceived intelligence with ad hominem fallacies. I have an IQ of 145 and had an SAT score of 1520. I went to Columbia University. Only 0.1% of the population has an IQ greater than mine and I don't see you as one of them.
I have called for Soros Gyorgy to be prosecuted for Holocaust crimes. Does Soros support Ukraine over KGB Russian? Sure. He also opposed the USSR. You can oppose with trans-nationalist agenda without being on the side of KGB Russia and Red China Which side of the First and Second Cold War are you on tovarisch?

Bring it, Rhino. I take on communist, cultural marxists, Jihadis, Neo-Nazis, and Trans-national corporatists daily. The Neo-Nazi political party in Ukraine, Svoboda (previously Social-National Party of Ukraine) has no political power today. In 2012, they were at their zenith, getting over 10% of the vote and 37 out of 450 seats in the Ukranian Parliament. In 2014, they lost 31 seats and got only 4.7% of the vote. In 2019, Svoboda got 2.15% of the vote and 1 seat.
Ukraine's Jewish president Zelenskyy got over 80% of the vote and his political party (SN/Servant of the People) has 240 seats.

My father and his family were from Polish Galicia and were partisans in World War 2. I am well aware of actual Neo-Nazis and OUN supporters in Ukraine.

KGB Russia is far more fascist than Ukraine. Globo-homo? That isn't Ukraine. On the other than you are in bed with KGB Russia and the Chinese Commmunist Party

So you’re a Galician Polock. That explains it sport. And the influence of the Galaician nazis in Ukraine goes FAR beyond voting numbers. Their influence is outsized due to it’s owning the SBU, and the street violence their enforcers use.... such as in Buka.

But you knew all that, didn’t you?

“Globo-homo? That isn’t Ukraine.”

Sure is. And that is proven by the people who support them. Nuland, Yavanovitch, McCain, Graham, the leaders of the EU, Hillary, Biden and his crime family, Washington DC, the US military, NATO, General Milly, etc. If you are a homo supporter and a globohomo advocate, you line up with Ukraine.... that’s just how it is.

Thanks for the parody of McCarthyism. Using your "logic", you are admitting that you are a communist enemy of America by taking the sid eof KGB Russia and the PRC.
Plenty of conservatives and conservative governments support Ukraine. You have no rational argument. Man up, comrade.
