“Yep, and if they don’t drive Russia out of Ukraine and Crimea.......”
+++++
Who is going to do that? Who is “they”? At what point is Ukraine going to demand U.S. boots on the ground? I’ve heard the rumbling already of demands for U.S. troops being sent to fight in Ukraine. When did that country become a part of NATO? Are we going to send our military into another long war with no specific goal, and regulations that limit them as to engagement with the “enemy”? Who will be designated as the enemy? Russian military troops or Ukrainians who are on the Russians side in the conflict?
Are we going to once again send young men from our country to die on behalf of the military complex leaders whose rules of engagement make it impossible to actually win and with no end date for the “conflict”?
I think Biden has stirred up a hornet’s next and the U.S. is going to end up being stung in the a$$.
Right now “They” is Ukrainians with the help of western weapons.
And unfortunately Moscow Joe is slow walking aid. He’s only delivered 8 million of the $40 million congress authorized. NATO has been too slow with weapon support. They are only now getting Ukraine superior artillery needed to stop Russia’s advance. And they are only now thinking of providing fighter jets.
But if Ukraine fails to push Russia back, then it is in NATO’s best interest to get involved directly.
Eff Ukraine. They’re not worth the life of a single American service member or a single taxpayer dollar.
Much less the billions we have already wasted.
