The willingness to pay the cost is the prerogative of the buyer, not the seller.

Sanctions failed and failed so miserably, most of the EU is not only going into economic implosion, firewood collecting has become the new norm. Man, those environ Euroweenies got to be utterly pissed, yeah?

This is just the start. Don’t think for a moment the US will somehow escape what is happening to the EU.

Vlads crippling of the West can still go two ways. The West can still stand in “ defiance” (suicide) OR admit failure and get negotiating with Vlad.

The state of panic in the EU and suffering of their citizens will at some point force negotiations OR there will be massive, historic unrest forcing EU regime changes. Either outcome, Vlad wins.

I have zero willingness to pay the cost.

Boils down to the fact that the Globalist(liberal world order) wants control of Russia and what Russia has. Putin knows it and has more resources to fight them than others have had. These very same people are trying to take over power in Brazil and have had people like Nuland down there trying to make it happen. If elections don’t work, they punish or instigate a coup.

I am vehemently opposed to these scum who want to kill and enslave us by force while making us eat bugs and live in squalor or die.

The West’s suffering has only begun.

Long overdue and hopefully leads to fundemental changes both here and in Europe.

The yoke of globalism needs to be broken and the global elites who benefited must be forced to pay.

I’ve been calling it the Dark Ages 2.0 for a while now. I’ve also seen some prognosticating that the USA will be back to a pre-WWII days standard of living. The ‘tough’ folks, older folks, who maybe grew up on farms or worked hard, have common sense and can think out of the box will be fine. The soy boy/girl types are going to be in a world of hurt when all they have is their apartments, basements and empty grocery shelves. The “ferals” will also be abandoning the inner cities where there will be nothing for survival, like rats coming off a sinking ship. It’s going to be ‘interesting’ times at a minimum.

Your thesis assumes the Russia won’t be one to collapse. That’s not a reasonable assumption considering that it has done so twice in the last 105 years.

The Russians are now selling gas and oil to China, India and more and do not need Europe as a customer anymore. Did you not know this? Also, Europe is still buying Russian oil with China as the middleman. Bidenistas are retarded.

EU is weak and pathetic, they have no cards. Sent all their broken down crap to Ukraine. Now they will have hordes of soon to freeze and starve people flowing into the streets and it will be their arrogance and desire to initiate that idiotic world order of theirs to blame for all of it.

Around the world, anyone who dares stand against the Globalization and the LWO is called “pro Putin”

That is the “ Russian Derangement Syndrome”. Unfortunately, only western nations can catch the disease.

We saw it hit hard in the US, the Mueller failed investigation, “ Russiagate” hoax, and Trumps failed impeachment hearings…remember the Ukie clown ( US military embarrassment) Vindman?

That has to be the dumbest comment that could possibly be posted on a forum.

Hey Germany, still think it’s laughable. Should have listened to Prez Trump.

Good job of posting a story that destroys the argument made by the Uke apologists.

Feral groups will spread into suburban areas and wreck unprecedented havoc on them.

The effete enclaves of Los Angeles millionaires will be a headline-making example, but it will happen across the country, and the danger of it cannot be overstated.

The sanctions have failed and Russia is doing just fine. One big effect of the sanctions was the pull out of major multinational corporations and the businesses left behind were taken over by Russians. The West with sanctions managed only to remove their own Trojan horse corporations and enrich Russians.

Then there is no reason for Russia to demand they be rolled back.

Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, ‘Trump’s right again.”
