Total collapse of US/EU/NATO policy both military and economic, damage to European society may be irreparable

I think Turkey will keep their NATO obligations.

There is no chance whatsoever that Turkey would take military action against Russia.

If anything Russia and Turkey have become closer because this war:

ISTANBUL—Turkey and Russia are stitching their economies more tightly together, heightening concerns among the U.S. and its allies that the burgeoning relationship could undermine sanctions imposed on the Kremlin as punishment for its invasion of Ukraine.

Expanding trade and financial ties show how the countries are turning to each other to shore up their troubled economies. Russia is increasingly leaning on Turkey to ease its international isolation after the West imposed sweeping sanctions on Russia since its assault on Ukraine began in February. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan needs foreign currency amid an economic crisis resulting largely from his own monetary policy, economists say.

Name one thing that I posted that wasn't accurate.

What Russia is like is secret. There are dozens of vloggers posting on social media.

Russia is probably freer than we are under Biden.

“Who can seriously believe Russia could lose a land war in their neighborhood?”
—————————-

A frightening number of people here think so! If the US military went all out producing shells and sent 100% of the output to Ukraine with nothing for itself, it could manage 300,000 shells per year of which half would be blown up, seized or resold to god knows where by the corrupt weasels that run Ukraine.

Russia can easily and indefinitely produce over a million artillery shells a year and have 4 million shells and mlrs rockets in storage. All of which will go to the front to be delivered to Ukraine. Add to that unlimited energy and commodities to stay warm and well fed while they do their best work at -30 below.

But I’ve learned: never confuse neocons with facts……
