NATO?
NATO last active engagement was failing to win in Afghanistan.
The shirtless man you openly deride bested the Chechens, seized Crimea and has now gotten the West to offer him a capitulation.
No, I am not a fan of Putin’s adventures but one can’t help but admire his gustiness.
You are almost worshipful of the slimy little KGB man.
And yes NATO, like I said, you are on record opposing all of our (NATO’s) actions and efforts to date, while you have been supporting Putin and the invasion.
Don't forget their involvement in driving Khadaffi out of power. That's worked real well for them, too (sarcasm).
I can't imagine why Europe would want Ukraine to have more arms to fight a war. Who knows where those arms would end up?
That is only because NATO forces were/are hampered by ridiculously restrictive rules of engagement and were given the impossible mission of creating a modern nation where there has never been a nation at all. In comparison, the Soviet Union's mission in Afghanistan was to conquer by any means necessary with zero considerations for the lives of non-combatants...and they still lost!
The shirtless man you openly deride bested the Chechens, seized Crimea and has now gotten the West to offer him a capitulation.
That shirtless man you praise simply bought the Chechens, he pays the largest faction to keep order and pays for Chechen mercenaries to fight and rape wherever Vlad tells them to go. He seized the Crimea and is besting Western leaders, not because of skill or power, but because our leaders are dumber than the adults on South Park. We in the West have ALL of the economic and military power to destroy Vlad, but we don't have the Churchills, Reagans, or Abdullahs. Any person with sense can see that the Russian Bear has no claws or teeth left, all they can do is roar.

Why? Do you admire Stalin's gusto? Putin is just another egomaniac with a God-complex. A dangerous animal that needs to be put down, not admired.
