chemosh6969 posted:As a master psychic, I predict the US will do nothing except allow China to continue to develop weapons to attack the greatest country in the world because the only people we're willing to fight are donkey people, and even then we lose. As for the Ukraine, Russia can do what it wants to it. It's not like we cared enough to defend it in the first place. There's literally nothing we can do (non-militarily) to Russia that will have any impact unless Europe hops on board with us and they won't because they're wholly dependent on Russian gas and oil to run their countries or will be benefiting from future pipelines that will run through those countries.

I was going to post on this but there's a Russia sanctions package working through the EU that: - restricts arms sales but still lets the French sell Rus their helo carriers - doesn't touch German exports to Rus - doesn't touch oil and gas imports, because obviously it can't - restricts financial trading in a way that screws London a lot harder than Moscow. Which realistically is necessary and would be fine, except for all of the above stuff where no one else in west Euro takes any pain.

I'd be happy with something small like a large exercise related to something going on with Russia. Like the ones we'd do in Korea that would get NK to start telling us to not do it because they'll destroy us.

Seems to me that stifling any foreign competition so that domestic corporations have an easier time is a great way to make sure that domestic corporations stay poo poo forever. Of course I guess that doesn't matter if you just steal everything.

Almost all credit card payments processing runs through New York, as does a whole lot of other global money supply issues. The US is sitting on a giant economic nuclear weapon.

They won't use it unless Russia outright invades Ukraine. It would be ridiculously hawkish and would alarm a lot of other countries if it was done without a really grievous casus belli.

What if we threw a REFORGER and nobody came? Although to be honest a proper Able Archer 14 would be rad as hell Waroduce posted:In unrelated news, China is fuckin around with Microsoft. Did I ever post the article on how the Chinese stole all the info in your security clearance? quote:The intrusion at the Office of Personnel Management was particularly disturbing because it oversees a system called e-QIP, in which federal employees applying for security clearances enter their most personal information, including financial data. Federal employees who have had security clearances for some time are often required to update their personal information through the website.

They can pretty much go until we stop selling them bombs to go with, but they have to balance the short-term gratification of leveling Gaza against the long-term pain of increasing alienation from the EU.

This is apropos of absolutely nothing, but I today I listened to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWMxFsFeAoc two hour long fest/drone debate on my stitcher app while cutting some grass. Christine Fair is annoying as gently caress, and the UK dudes made me lol. Both sides raised interesting points, but none of them truly addressed how to effectively eradicate mankind.
