Why should America make Russians bleed?

Do you want them to make Americans bleed in response?

A nuclear exchange would kill MILLIONS of people in both countries. Over a poor country known to be one of the most corrupt nations on Earth?

Haven’t enough young Americans died fighting in backwater, foreign countries throughout the world in the last 100 years?

If you want Russians to bleed, volunteer yourself and go fight for Ukraine IN UKRAINE.

How many Americans did they make bleed in Korea and Vietnam?

Putin's Great Russian fascism needs to be defeated, so make as many Russians bleed as possible.

I took it to mean “make them bleed financially”

Russia can only keep this offensive for so long before it becomes a budget buster...

Still, if Ukraine and drawing a line on national sovereignty are important then, Europe ought to be the ones fronting this thing...

Yes, Ukraine is one of the most corrupt nations on Earth. As, most likely, is Russia.

But the MOST corrupt nation on Earth is the United States…and it isn’t even close. Ukraine is merely one of the prostitutes that the American political class is using to keep their good times rolling at the expense of their own peasants (formerly known as citizens).

*Why should America make Russians bleed?* Think Reagan-Afghanistan/contras.

They are expansionist. Think Angola. Central America. Afghanistan had no strategic value unless their bigger aims involved expanding to the Indian Ocean. Economic costs go with human costs.
