PUTIN WILL NOT STOP AT UKRAINE BORDERS.

My thought all along.

PUTIN has made it very clear that he wants to “REUNITE” all the prior SOVIET UNION BLOC.

HE wants that to be “HIS LEGACY”.

MOST of these countries do NOT wish to be back under Russian Rule.

Russia has no interest in the West and has pivoted to the EAST and Eurasia for new growth and Allies. They have been doing so for the last few years and can well supply their Natural Resources to India, China and other countries.

If people paid attention to Putin’s speeches of the last two years they would know that. All the Sanctions the West have put on them have pretty much failed.

The USSR was a multi-ethnic empire, Stalin was a Georgian, Krushchev and Brezhnev were Ukrainians. Most of the Old Bolsheviks, except Lenin, were Jews.

But even if we accept the toponym "Soviet citizen = Russian", the phenomenon of America being dragged into wars for the benefit of alien peoples based on what Americans think they know about what those alien peoples "really want" is seriously past its "sell by" date.

This has led us to disaster after disaster, with no recompense for our sacrifices, and we are hearing it even today about what Iranians "really want".

You, I and everyone else here who is a US citizen without attachments to foreign countries have no idea what foreigners "really want". It's none of our business, and I for one don't really care if Pashtuns want schools for girls, if Vietnamese Buddhists want a representative democracy, or if Iraqis want to vote.

I don't care what those people want. I care what my people want. And I'm pretty distressed that my people aren't getting what they want or need while we bleed or offer to defending foreigner's borders.

Enough is enough.

Never again.

He’ll stop at Poland’s boarder. Because if he stepped one mm over that line, NATO will curb stomp Russia’s ass. Putin can barely handle what’s going on as it is.

All these “aid” packages are further proof that Ukraine was right to not spent its cash to arm up and train against Russia. Because now someone else is paying.
