The “football” being near Putin in nothing unusual. Heck, our “football” is always near our President.
Real Americans, the ones that support wars and fight in wars will mostly be sitting this one out. They don’t have a dog in this fight. For them America has already been destroyed. Good luck instituting a draft. Lol.
The Chicoms have to be loving this.
“If you sow the wind you reap the whirlwind.”
The US govt. went looking for trouble on Russia’s border, on the opposite side of the planet and has found it. We’re going to regret this.
My country is not Ukraine. Neither is it Russia.
I do take offense to a foreign leader promising to hurt my country and countrymen.
Every FReeper should be so concerned.
We can and should debate actions that have led us to this point, but be ever vigilant and protective of the United States of America.
A decrepit American leader and a half-mad Russian leader. What possibly could go wrong?
Hey, no big deal - a lot of the same folks who tell us he's crazy and dying, have also assured us he'll never use nuclear weapons. Plus, Joe Biden's in charge on this side! Nothin' to worry about!
;>)
A war with Russia brings on Civil War 2.0 here.
Exactly. Nuclear weapons cost a lot of money even if they’re just sitting around. And they have to be replaced frequently.
The Russians are still without their nuclear weapons factory at Mayak after a disaster in 2017.

I guess the Neocons will simply have to learn the hard way that Russian patience, like that of any country, has limits.
As opposed to the bidEn/DSC/msm friends that also post on FR
No argument from me.
We’ll, there’s one good thing about total nuclear war. It gets climate change and the debt ceiling fight off the front page.
I don’t think any of these so-called experts have the faintest idea what they’re getting into. Most wars start out with lofty intentions and tidy scenarios on paper and deteriorate from there.
Yeah and they didn’t stop there Nancy Pelosi goes to Taiwan Kevin McCarthy is planning a trip this is provoking china also. Then they have big war games with Israel which is provoking Iran
“Admitting Ukraine to NATO was the trigger”
Ukraine NATOs membership was rejected.
The argument is posted that the Russian regime does not tolerate the public display of sexual perversion, much less push "gay rights". True, but the Russians and for that matter the Chinese are carrying on the policies from the Stalinist and Maoist eras, respectively. After the Russian Revolution, the Soviets tried sexual freedom, but backed away from it after seeing the effects of extreme permissiveness. Stalin saw its failures more clearly than Biden or even Trump. The Soviet tyrant was not Christian, but he was sufficiently pragmatic to recognize that stable families were necessary to maintain social order and cohesion.
