I am starting to get a bit worried, by this.
This is looking less and less like a Ukraine conflict, and instead seems more and more, like a possible international conflict, between the world’s biggest armed forces, and incidentally the world’s two largest nuclear forces.
If this crosses some invisible line on someone’s personal agenda, at some point, all hell could suddenly break loose.
Just saying...
Do not take counsel of your fears........ General George Patton
Russia screwed up on a grand scale. NATO has an opportunity to destroy the continual threat of Mother Russia and is doing so.
Mother Russia’s cupboard is bare and she lacks the wherewithal to refill it.
You’re not wrong. It’s clearly an international proxy war. I doubt it’ll be contained. Who is NOT involved? What could trigger spillage? ...endless possibilities.
Hopefully the politicians and CEOs who are getting rich off this bloodshed won’t let it get too out of hand. In the meantime, buying stock in “defense” corporations might be a goo investment for the rest of us.
It’s astonishing to me that Russia is not making serious attempts at interdiction.
Sending the Ukrainians artillery and armor are overt acts of war.
Entering into belligerent status with no plan to win the war (yes, I know, “winning” is so , like, 1940s) is incredibly irresponsible.
