No, it is not. The US has enough problems without instigating any war anywhere. I am tired of all the money going to Ukraine when it could help our nation get out of the hell hole Biden has dug up and put us all in!
Everything we've seen since even before the Ukrainian "black book" used to frame Paul Manafort is pointing to a war with Russia over Ukraine. NATO and the CIA is running this war.

You have to understand the holy omnipotent power of America. Everything is America's fault, even if it isn't. If it weren't so, we'd take our God back to the store for and upgrade.
We're going to war with Saudi Arabia now, too beamish? The environmentalist admirals are going to sink their tankers? But what about saving the planet?
The collective efforts of all these countries (provided you could get over the logistical hurdle of them cooperating with each other in the first place) would generously take at least two centuries, perhaps three, to match the protective regime provided by the US Navy.
We don't have to sink a thing. Insurance companies just won't underwrite cargo coming in or going out of routes that pass through dangerous sea lanes like the Black Sea but extended through the Suez, the Horn of Africa, the Persian Gulf, the Straits of Malacca, and so on.

Name somewhere in the world the US withdrew from that didn't become a shit hole of corruption, crime, and war.
Southeast Asia? South America? Central America? Africa? The Middle East? Pakistan and Afghanistan? Eastern Europe / Ukraine? The Phillipines? Korean Peninsula?
Where is the "better for America / better for the world" selling point to ending globalism?
Considering America's current strength and wealth rose upon the force of globalism, why would you then substitute that with diminished American strength and wealth, and a global order dominated by authoritarians and totalitarians and warmongers and terrorists?
Someone has to be on top. Why not us? See anyone on the bottom you'd rather have in charge?

- little to no substantive consequences to their incursions into Georgia and Crimea (indeed they got a lucrative oil and LNG pipeline to Europe out of it)
- little to no consequences whatsoever to their meddling in Kazakhstan or the other Central Asian 'stans.
- absolutely no consequences to their puppeteering in Belarus
- nobody taking out Bashir Assad in Syria
- the lack of consequences for interference in US election(s)
- the alienation of Turkey by Europe, compounded by Trump
- the fellatio of Russia becoming a key foreign policy plank in the US Republican Party national platform under Trump
- efforts to de-unify and disband NATO, also by Trump
Russia chose war with Ukraine because they figured out strongly worded letters and dirty looks don't actually hurt, and that no one would dare flip the switch on the SWIFT payment system and starve them out.
Russia looks kinda stupid arguing that they don't want NATO countries on their borders while invading and attempting to annex another country that borders NATO countries and inspires other countries on their borders to join NATO.
When does the blocking of the SWIFT payment system and release of Russia's foreign currency assets happen? As soon as they reverse course.... everywhere. The unthinkable...SWIFT system ostracization...will be the first golf club pulled out of the bag on future transgressing nations.
Russian oil and gas pipelines from the Caspian Basin are useless to Europe if Russia is not making deliveries and Europe starts getting their oil and gas from more reliable sources. China can't buy all the oil from Russia not being sold to Europe without new pipelines no one in Russia knows how to build or maintain or even pay for. And then the point sources of oil and gas pipelines in the Caspian Basin shut down from maintenance neglect and sabotage / military strike as reality further proves 3 -3 = 0.

No.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, no. We're taking our ball and going home. The world will starve to death for biting the hand that feeds it.
ReplyDeleteUkraine? lol!
ReplyDeleteDervy says "no". Do you think that Lynn Cheney and the establishment UniParty RNC isn't going to charge you for her Jan. 6 anti-Trump collusion?
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think the "price" was?
ReplyDeleteNo, it is not. The US has enough problems without instigating any war anywhere. I am tired of all the money going to Ukraine when it could help our nation get out of the hell hole Biden has dug up and put us all in!

ReplyDeleteImagine if the Saudi's join BRIC. America will no longer be the world's reserve currency. That hell hole is going to get significantly deeper.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Undefended supply lines from Khargil Island to Shanghai. What could possibility go wrong?

damned globalists fucking up white slavery for everyone
DeleteSouth Korea isn't a sh*thole. Japan isn't a sh*thold. Germany isn't a sh*thole. Oh, that's right, we WON those wars.
ReplyDeleteYou're talking about the half-assed stupidities we've waged on the UN golbalist model...
ReplyDeleteWe haven't left Germany, or Japan, or Korea....
ReplyDeleteExactly. We won.
ReplyDeleteAnd leveraged those victories into... globalism :)
ReplyDeleteAnd we'll leverage the current retreat from globalism into something equally beneficial to America.
Maybe Sally Struthers will let us adopt a starving European skinny for just the cost of a cup of coffee.

ReplyDelete"The authenticity of the black ledger was confirmed by reconciling the amounts in it with transfers to Manafort's account in the US" :P
Russia is fighting a war of choice in Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteThat choice was made a helluva a lot easier by:
- little to no substantive consequences to their incursions into Georgia and Crimea (indeed they got a lucrative oil and LNG pipeline to Europe out of it)
- little to no consequences whatsoever to their meddling in Kazakhstan or the other Central Asian 'stans.
- absolutely no consequences to their puppeteering in Belarus

They miscalculated.
NATO is the one that miscalculated. They're going to look pretty stupid when they attack Russia and the US pulls out of NATO.
ReplyDeleteThis is a rare instance of Beamish being correct.
ReplyDeleteNATO isn't going to attack Russia nor is the US going to pull out of NATO.
Russia looks kinda stupid arguing that they don't want NATO countries on their borders while invading and attempting to annex another country that borders NATO countries and inspires other countries on their borders to join NATO.
