Russian Military Buildup Outside Ukraine

Oh I see now. Destabilizing everything always works out exactly like the geniuses predict.

How so? They were fucking invaded a country BEFORE the war crippled them. They don’t have the capability to do anything else now.

When NATO was formed the Soviets were definitely a huge conventional threat to western Europe. They didn’t demobilize right after WWII like we did, and that war machine was extremely capable.

They haven’t been a significant threat to our interests for decades. They can’t even invade Ukraine.

The only threat Russia poses to any American is through their nuclear weapons.

A 100 million or so people heard Putin tell Tucker Carlson that he proposed joining NATO to Bill Clinton. I raised both eyebrows at this, but I have yet to hear anything disputing that claim. War is money, bottom line.

Well if we are all wrong, what is the truth exactly?

Tons and tons of money has been made with this latest slaughter on the plains of Europe. There’s a reason Hunter Biden could find lucrative employment as an oil and gas executive in Ukraine.

I’ve posted it before but I’ll post it again. War is a Racket by Gen. Smedley Butler.

Was Clinton president when Putin was president?

Why would we include Russia (the reason NATO exists to fight) to join it? That’s just silly.

There are a number of former Soviet countries in NATO representing a huge portion of their manpower and fighting forces when NATO was formed.

Over a dozen now, I think.

But yeah, if everyone is the defensive alliance, who is left for the alliance to defend against?

Those countries broke from Russia and moved towards Europe.

So, would you let China into NATO today? (ignoring what the NA stands for)

In that regard, Russia broke from Russia as well. The Soviet Union is no more.

To be clear, I’m not saying that Russia should be in NATO, I’m just saying that many past adversaries are now part of it.

Why is the number of witnesses to hearsay relevant? If every person in the world heard Putin claim it happened, that would not speak to the actual truth any more or less.

Russia is the successor nation to the USSR. If it isn’t, it should say goodbye to the UN veto.

Yes. Putin became president on New Year’s Eve of 1999. Clinton was president until January 2001, over a year later.

Wouldn’t it be silly if some war lord in Azerbaijan considered himself the ā€œTrue Successorā€ of Gorbechev.

I’m honestly mystified why Tucker Carlston exists.

Joe Rogan I can understand.

Steven Segal lost his ability to express amazement at very regular things in an eating accident.

That really doesn’t give Clinton much time to have done anything, assuming it’s true. He probably should have asked Chen…I mean Bush.

To give internships to people who will do a little Wiki research so he can look like he knows what he’s talking about. They did the same with Trevor Noah only he had an excuse as he’s a foreigner.

Yeah . . . I don’t dislike him, but I don’t care for him, if that makes sense.

Or maybe that makes us racists?
