The USSR committed these same acts in the Vietnam war against us.
While these actions may or may not be acts of war, what is the upside of
telling the world we committed acts of war? Is Russia taking too long to declare war on theUS?
“Yes, it is a noble cause, if the Ukrainians want to fight for their freedom. Our founding fathers thought so to.”
Your statement is ludicrous. You must be in the Biden administration!
The Ukrainian military is being fed into a meat grinder and destroyed. If you know anything about history one of the noblest efforts in history was the Greek Spartans at the battle of Thermopylae. The Spartans fielded 300 men against a Persian army of over 40,000. The outcome was the total annihilation of the Spartans. For them, it was very noble while every single one of them was slaughtered.
So, now we have the Ukrainians fighting against a well-armed nuclear and military power and constantly goaded on by the west along with their crooked, clown leader. In particular, the US is the principal instigator. Just like we instigated and started wars in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Syria.
How did the other battles we instigated turn out? I’ll tell you in case you don’t remember. Many thousands of our military personnel were sacrificed and millions of those we invaded were killed.
“Noble” is a relative term. If your goal is to save your country for the sake of freedom you make a reasonable assessment of your condition and if you choose to fight you believe you have a reasonable chance of winning and not being demolished like the Spartans. Dead people may be noble but they don’t get to fight another battle. THEY LOSE!
