The Russians have a very stark misconception of the word “border.”

And being that we did not invade Poland, I’m thinking we are there with the invitation of the government of Poland.

Russia is in Syria at the request of their government as well. Just stating the obvious

And I'm ok with that. Just as they should be ok with us in Poland.

Frankly, I don't think Russia really cares about Poland, it would be folly for them to try to invade Poland, anyway. But it's more a response to our actions in Syria than anything.

What did Russia expect when Poland joined NATO all those years ago?

The Russians would also like Poland forced out of NATO or at least militarily neutered. As it is, Poland has begun a reserve program to expand the talent that its military can call on. One scenario feared by Poland is that Russia might attempt to infiltrate a wave of agents to sabotage the country’s infrastructure and prevent it from coming to the aid of the Baltic Republics or the western Ukraine against a Russian invasion.

America can’t continue to allow Russia to pretend that our defenses are an offensive threat to them.

At least since the neutron bomb, we’ve caved to their PR campaigns and it must stop.

It should be easy for the U.S. to assert that we have no record of offensive threat to them.

Our defenses are in fact, used to deter Russia’s very real threat of Russian expansion and oppression.

America has no need to apologize for that.

“If Russia enters Poland they would....wouldn’t they?”

If Russia invades Poland, the U.S. and other members of NATO would defend Poland.

It would be a world war.

Nothing would please Ozipperneck better than a “scorched earth policy”. If he can’t have the presidency, no one can. And this maggot will more than happy to appease his globalist masters...burn the place down.
