War in Ukraine

[allvol123]

And you feel that you have the right to force other people to bear that cost.

********.

We don’t have a conscripted army.

 

[tvolsfan]

And you are wise enough to get to make that decision for all of us? And you're fine with us inevitably taking on payment for a conflict that Europeans themselves keep cowering from?

You likely think you're being strong. Instead, you're acting like Europe's bitch. It makes no sense.

You think you're looking out for American interests by ignoring world problems and deluding yourself into thinking it won't affect us.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Oh, that's what you're going with? How am I going to foot the bill for sanctions? I'm pretty sure I'd feel the cost of rising energy costs.

That effects the entire country... really, the global market. So now you are wanting the entire globe to help foot the bill.

You don't know what I think about "world problems". You know what I think about US involvement in a specific situation in Eastern Europe.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

What happens in Europe will inevitably affect us.

How?

?????

We were discussing the economic impact of sanctions.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

When Russia runs roughshod over Europe, we’ll see how advantageously that works out for the US.

You rest easy with the tyrants here running the show but have restless nights worried about Russia in Europe?

At the very least, concern yourselves with the traitors and sellouts that are feeding from the Chinese teat and pushing CCP tactics here on our own soil.

Several comments on don’t “volunteer” Americans. If that wasn’t you, my mistake.

I don't know what to say if the Europeans are so weak that they can't take care of modern Russia in the event of war.

Would you shut up with this stupidity. Who on here is lauding our leaders?

Don't play coy. He's talking about the financial responsibilities and consequences.

I’d say they are weak.

I am responding to the multiple “volunteer” Americans.

 

[VolStrom]

How?

We'll pull all of our military out of Germany and cripple their economy. Just imagine no more Americans having to be sentenced to living in Europe defending the former Nazi's.

Volunteer has several meanings. Time or money... either way, not our business.

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

For the pro-meddling crowd I ask, what is so bad about expecting Europe to solve their own problems for once?

Can the whole of Europe not defeat Russia?

We have a military. It should be used when we need it to meet our needs. I’m not claiming that is here, but stop falling back on this absurd emotional “don’t volunteer our boys”!

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

I’d say they are weak.

Sounds like they might want to work on that then. Tired of the US being expected to subsidize the defense of Europe.

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

I’d say they are weak.

You really believe that Europe can't handle Russia?

The soft bigotry of low expectations doesn't just apply to liberals. Now we have neocon warhawks that don't think Europe can defend itself. What a bunch of racists.

We will have to deal with the outcome, regardless of your dissatisfaction of their weakness.

UK, France, Turkey and Poland is a formidable force. Then throw in the possibility that China may take advantage and go after Far East territories and it would be game over.

Then who's needs are being met by involving ourselves in this? Certainly not mines or yours or Main Street America.

And this isn't the Soviet Union military leviathan either.

What would be the outcome? What keeps you up at night?
