thanks for admitting that tiny Ukraine is now former-superpower Russia's equal

Careful, your IQ is showing. The correct correlation was NATO vs Russia.

For those not in love with Putin, another reason not to give Ukraine to Russia. Another forward base for their nukes bordering Poland.

Really? You mean troops, armor and aircraft from the United States, Britain, Poland and all the other NATO countries have entered the Ukraine fight?

Russian forces would be rolled up like an old carpet.

How long before tactical nukes show up in some Central American country. Or Cuba again.

Not surprising at all.

Good for the goose, good for the gander…however , matters little. Vlads supersonic missiles( we have none- yet) fitted with nukes can lay waste to London in a very few small minutes ( some say seconds) based in Belarus.

Vlad is simply 1) giving warning 2) playing Nato’s encroachment to its fullest.

I think this is an attempt to keep the threat of nuclear weapons alive without making an Obama “red line in the sand” comment that everyone laughs at. There are some problems with putting nuclear weapons someplace. You have to move them from where they are to where they’ll be. You have to guard them appropriately and effectively. And, should Belarus fall to some internal insurgency, you’d have to get them the heck out of there PDQ. I’d say there are many more potential downsides for Russia putting those weapons there than there are upsides. (At least Putin didn’t say “red line in the sand.” “Okay, now don’t cross THIS red line...Crap!”)

True that.

you forgot to mention that Russia was already “waging war” in Syria long before the US got there

Did Russia muscle their way in to Syria or were they invited?

Misses aimed at Russia placed in Turkey, 1961, misses placed in Cuba aimed at the U.S., 1962.

How do we get all countries to stop doing this, all countries to dismantle their overseas bases, all countries to pull their troops out of sovereign nations, Russia out of Ukraine, NATO back to its 1949 country original charter size, no Monroe Doctrine for any country, etc?

>> And don’t forget about the biological labs in Ukraine.

That propaganda bit is so stale even on Russian state TV they have dropped it.

So far, I do not know of any nation that has demonstrated hypersonic missiles with a heat resistant outer that is feasible. Russia is fielding these now.

Time will tell, but no nation has a defense against them currently, including Russia

Take your complaint up with Victoria Nuland. She said it

PS: please educate yourself before hitting the SEND button

Lukashenko is going to get the Nicolae Ceaușescu treatment. His people don’t want this crap.==

His people are RUSSIANS. Just a other type. See the name of their country. So they will go with Russia all the way.

Romanians and Ceausescu are obviously NOT Russians.

I wonder how much blood is on the hands of Victoria Nuland and her ilk of Ivy-league idiots in the “diplomatic corps”?

I have no way to quantify it but I would bet my life its beyond comprehension. One might ask the proverbial question - “is the world safer and more stable today?” because of the actions of our State Department?

The true accounting will have to be made before God because these people own the system.

We are not an “imperialistic” people, but those we put in charge certainly are.... an imperialism of the elites, by the elites, and for the elites.
