Funny how you suck in Russian propaganda like a useful idiot.
More likely Russia thought that calmer heads would prevail after Biden basically assured them that we wouldn't do anything if it was a “minor incursion”. They made the incorrect assumption that the “invasion” would prompt a negotiation which gave them an upper hand and that our puppet Zelinsky would roll over. Instead, all this obfuscating was used by deep state Neocons to lure Putin into an ill-conceived “trap” that they thought would end his regime. Now everyone has egg on their face and hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians and Russians have been slaughtered as a result.
The results are that the sanctions have been a complete failure. Putin is as strong as ever. Their economy has been converted to a war time economy. The US dollar is losing its place as the trading currency for energy. China has been emboldened and will likely take Taiwan before Biden leaves office. Vast sums of money have been wasted with a large percentage laundered back into the hands of the Democrats and deep state Republicans none of whom could care less that there is buckets of blood on the money and that our credibility is now in the toilet.
No good will ever come from any of this. The primary residual we have on the forum is a cadre of fools that have completely bought into the massive amount of propaganda and are cheering on the continuing blood fest and believe that the Biden administration is capable of "winning" anything.

It must be nice to have a copy of the Russian battle plans to have insight like that.
You take after Slo-Joe.
There are a multitude of independent military observers to point out that Russia has failed and will never take Ukraine. If the US would send longer range weapons, they’d likely take Crimea back.
And so were the Germans and we all know how that turned out!
“Funny how you suck in Russian propaganda like a useful idiot.”
One thing the US has in abundance is toothless, warmongering, blowhard boomers.
Like you.
bttp
“the US has in abundance is toothless, warmongering, blowhard boomers”
LOL, says the young buck that wouldn’t fight if they invaded Va Beach. You Liberaltarians take the cake for puzzy Appeasers.
Seriously, you are so dense that you accuse us of being warmongers, while the only warmonger is Putin’s Russia.
Completely unnecessary war, but no... let the neocon war drums beat.
I read Ukrainian propaganda on several sites and some of it is so ridiculous you know it’s BS. All I know is we should not be involved in the mess. Russia’s military budget in 2019 was less than 100 billion ours is about 9 times that... The only threat they pose to NATO & the USA is with Nukes which they will not use unless cornered... So is Nato trying to corner them??? WTF are we doing financing this blood bath
“Seriously, you are so dense that you accuse us of being warmongers, while the only warmonger is Putin’s Russia.”
Ok, boomer. The problem with your statements are they are false. Nobody is invading VA Beach.
The US staged a coup and armed Ukraine on Russia’s border and now US backed former state of Ukraine is getting it’s butt kicked. Get used to it.
You toothless, warmongering boomers live out your lives in old black and white movies slouched over on your sofas, hissing and snarling.
Still a ways to go since we are fighting this to the last Ukrainian. Many patriotic freepers have said that they will not let Russia invade Ukraine without letting Ukrainians get decimated or something stupid like that
I doubt we will ever know the truth.
Been lurking reading all the differing views of what’s really happening over there. This post is the most sensible and well written of them all. Thanks.
It goes back to Russian telegram channels falsely attributing a story to CNN.
Sachs is using Chomsky's trick of being loose with sources.
“The US staged a coup and armed Ukraine on Russia’s border “
That is complete BS that your tiny little brained has heard and believed from Russian propaganda. Putin even preemptively talked about taking Ukraine back due to Ukraine not really existing, except as a part of Greater Russia.
Russia got their azzes handed to them, deal with it, their military sucks.
Are you going through a Liberaltarian gender confusion, you little puzzy Appeaser. What is your pronoun?
Your Post #22 - thank you for injecting some sense.
