Frosted Flake posted:It was not “on track”. it’s not right or justified but yeah gently caress around often enough and sooner or later you’ll find out if you keep backing your enemies into a corner. america, as usual, tossed their allies into the line of fire so it’s ukraine getting hosed up for their mistakes. america learned all the wrong lessons from their success in the 80s against the soviets: “threaten the russians hard, encircle them (china, afghanistan), and just keep the pressure up, and they’ll back down. heh, cowardly russians.” turns out that poo poo doesn’t work when you’re a shadow of your former glory and russia isn’t a giant conglomeration of competing national interests

Yudo posted:Russia does not need to Invade Ukraine to stop it from joining NATO. Literally only way they could do it when all other diplomatic options were basically cut off. Ukraine literally has it in its constitution that they MUST join NATO at any cost. So of course any resolution that would guarantee peace but prevent them from joining NATO was off the table.

StashAugustine posted:I do kinda wonder how much the US positively wanted Russia to get bogged down in a bloody counterinsurgency Given that everyone in the government and media wouldn't shut the gently caress up about it, I'd say a lot. They're still hoping this turns into Afghanistan 2.0 (3.0?) for the Russians, we'll see how far that goes.

brugroffil posted:Weird how many countries have joined NATO and yet there has never been an attack on Russia. I guess "immediate" means "may decide to turn aggressive at some indeterminate point in the future and invade a nuclear power for ???" okay so it’s fine if russia forms an offensive military alliance with canada mexico venezuela and cuba, right that should be fine, the alliance hasn’t attacked yet

Ideal stupid situation: Kyiv gets fully captured by russia within the next 24 hours, Louis goes on and makes some jokes about the situation, gets arrested by Russian MPs, and becomes the political prisoner that starts WW3
