“Agree. Yet we got people on this forum that would like to see a full blown conflict start that we have no business getting into. They really seem to think it will be a cake walk with the Russians.”
Many of us twenty-plus veterans of Free Republic have seen that some of the recent freepers have no idea about history of how wars have been pushed by warmonger Democrats and their fellow neo-cons, started and ended very badly for thousands of young women and men.
What has happened is that they watched with amazement on what happened in Iraq during the two gulf wars. Set aside Afghanistan..which could have been a advantage to us if they GD useless politicians would have let the military do its thing. 18 months..18 months when Trump was POTUS it was quiet there.
So..they think this will go like the Iraq thing.
Here is what will happen. Biden intends on blustering a war between Ukraine and the Russians. The Russians hold most of the cards. All Putin has to do is CUT OFF all, or nearly all the gas and oil supplied to the Euro nations. Once that happens, its over. The Euro nations will collapse. Just watch what Germany is saying and doing. They already are sending signals they dont want anything to do with this fantasy of Bidens.
Then what will happen in the Pacific Rim? What will Red China do? There, we have a clear case for concern. That area is vital to our interests.
Russia goes into Ukraine, we let Russia take the parts they want, and it will make pig Face Biden look even more worthless than he already is.
Its gone to far, nobody is going to back down and this was caused by floppy paw Obama.
I have not seen anyone, other than myself stress the fact the Russia has been putting naval assets off our coast-more than they had been doing in the past.
Russia can retreat into the interior. We cant. They can nearly surround us, we cant them. Which leaves one thing. Global nuclear war.
Over what? A country that has been giving payoffs to politicians within this country.
