War in Ukraine

[0nelilreb]

So after banning oil imports what tools are left short of military intervention?

None , that’s why this little chess game is so damn dangerous .

Horrible headline.

Mediocre article.

From what I can tell that publication is the epitome of Russian apologist. They make Tucker Carlson look like he's against Putin's action on this. And that's damn near impossible.

Just wait…Joe has a crushing foreign policy record. Everything he throws against the wall never sticks. It’s gonna be epic.

One example of Tucker Carlton supporting Putin's invasion, please

He pretty much said, Putin is going to win anyway, so if you don't give Ukraine any way to defend themselves, less people will die in the process. Or in other words, Ukraine should not fight back.

We left Americans and Afghans out to dry over 6 months ago when we left them to the Taliban. That is just what we are known for. If we don't give a damn about Americans, you know Ukraine doesn't have a chance.

Not so sure Team Biden doesn’t see more advantage in ******* with Putin/Russia than in serving the citizenry here at home.

So what if they default?

They finance their sovereign debt with cheap oil and vodka. Assuming they can find a lender willing to take it as collateral

 

[RavinDave]

He can't afford to pay both of us. He's going bankrupt thanks to these sanctions.

A good comrade would take a pay cut in hard times.

Poland's Offer Of Jets For Ukraine "Raises Serious Concerns For Entire NATO Alliance": Pentagon | ZeroHedge

"The prospect of fighter jets 'at the disposal of the Government of the United States of America' departing from a U.S./NATO base in Germany to fly into airspace that is contested with Russia over Ukraine raises serious concerns for the entire NATO alliance," Pentagon press secretary John Kirby said of the Polish announcement which caught the Biden administration by surprise.

China will. India also. That's 1/3 of the planet right there.

Ok

Hot potato... will somebody please take Poland's aircraft. They are like pound puppies looking for a home. Maybe they can give them to the Taliban?

"No, one wants to take the responsibility. Poland passed it to the US, and now the US says this is all Poland. What a farce."

I am sure the Russian people take great pride in being a vassal state to China.

It really doesn't make sense.
Many claim that one of the things that made Trump effective was the fact that he was crazy enough to just maybe use nukes.
The assumption being that those leaders did not step out of line because they wished to avoid nuclear conflict.
Now they are saying that we can't keep those same leaders from stepping out of line because they might resort to nuclear conflict.

It can't be both.

'Many' are babbling nonsense, then. No serious person - especially geopolitical foes - thought Trump would go nuclear.
They thought he was the kind of guy to bust your nose if you took a swing at the U.S. and would not be intimidated into concessions that a weaker president might. Nor let this country take a backseat to the UN or NATOs interest if it didn't align with ours. That's a downside re: the NATO alliance, what Thatcher phrased as "Consensus is the death of leadership".

That's why Trump worked.

Yep. I’m sure Xi can get Kim Jong Un to welcome Vlad into the personal bitch club

'You miss me yet': Trump claims he was giving 'anti-tank busters' to Ukraine while Obama was handing over blankets and suggests Biden Canceled Shipments of Weapons he had ready to order

Former President Trump claimed in a statement Tuesday that President Biden 'canceled' the military equipment he had 'packed, loaded, and ready to be shipped' to Ukraine.

Trump said that while he was giving 'anti-tank busters' to Ukraine, Presidents Obama and Biden gave 'blankets,' referring to humanitarian aid.

'The Fake News Media refuses to report that I was the one who very early and strongly gave the anti-tank busters (Javelins) to Ukraine, while Obama/Biden was giving blankets, to great and open complaints,' he said in a statement.

'Then Biden came in, and canceled the remaining military equipment that was packed, loaded, and ready to be shipped. Now the Fake News Media is trying to say that Trump gave Ukraine nothing and it was Biden who is their great friend and gave them weaponry. The dishonesty is so unbelievable. All I can do is report it!'

Former presidents traditionally show a little class in these tense situations and let the new guy manage the crisis, save the partisan sniping and politics for later.

But of course that jackass has to stick his nose in and beat his chest. What a completely dick move.

Trump isn't about class or any of that nonsense. Hell, were you complaining about classy Bill Clinton?

I'm guessing that's a rhetorical question, but I'll answer anyway:
They are worried that they might loosen the noose Putin put around his own neck enough for him to slither out.
Now that it is obvious that he is hanging himself, they view their best move to be that of an onlooker.
