Requesting source for US troops in Ukraine

Or do you just mean "US involvement in any form"? Countries are all up in each other's business, it's a thing. Russia is quite good at that game, they really have no basis to judge others for playing it.

I will call Biden and tell him we have decided to call off the war.

That was rude. He says you are a Russian asset on 37 government watchlists and that he is going to wipe out the last bastion of freedom on Earth, Moscow, and usher in a 1000 year reign of Arachno-Bidenism.

Wait what, people in this thread really think the US should stick it's stupid dick into another blender like half a year after they got their asses kicked out of the graveyard of empires by a bunch of religious fundamentalists carrying old American-supplied weapons from the cold war?

That's hilarious.

Who could possibly care if Russia invades the modern capital of neo-nazism?

Because it’s a bad policy to let countries invade each other without at least the very pretense of casus belli.

I'm extremely opposed to deploying US troops to Ukraine.

Giving them weapons, most definitely. No way we don't have a couple C-17's worth of antitank missiles nearing their expiration date.

And I saw some satellite imagery of Russian armor and vehicle staging. Well, I'm hoping that if those huge staging areas start emptying out some people in Ukraine know about it 5 minutes after the image gets downlinke. No troops on the ground at all. You can hardly fault the US for taking a digital photograph and sharing it.

Afghanistan we at least could argue bin laden was there. But we really had no excuse for Iraq other than Dick “Halliburton” Cheney.

We really should have some leaders charged with war crimes over that. Like at a minimum.

The Taliban offered to hand over Bin Laden on September 12, and the US was perfectly well aware that 9/11 was the result of Saudi funding and operatives. It would have been smarter and less destructive to do literally nothing in response to 9/11, much less flip out and kill a million people for no reason.

I actually would think the US would have justification to devour the house of saud. It still does in my mind. Give it to Iran.

Edit: because Iran would at least be a better powerbroker in the region.

Arachno-Bidenism according to the great minds of Reddit:

“He [Biden] knows that to overthrow the rich, we need to kill all non-black spiders, because they eat the grain. This is where the commonly misunderstood phrase "If you don't vote for me, then you ain't black" comes in. While most humans interpreted this as him saying that African-American Trump voters were race traitors, the real message was a threat to the spider community.”

“The true goal of the far left antifa invaders, to kill our american made spiders and replace them with communist anarchist antifa spiders!”

I assume that there are also communist anarchist Antifa super-spiders that will serve as mounts for the Antifa supersoldiers when we invade Moscow. None of those spiders will be black of course.

I certainly can't disagree that the house of Saud should be destroyed and that Iran is less terrible by far.

Anyways I guess the main point is that it is extremely funny that so many people who have no idea why Ukraine exists and think that it's a legitimate country for some reason think that it matters either way if Russia invades.

Some conservative capitalist dictatorship invading the terrible cryptofascist country next door isn't really much reason for the US to get involved, who cares lol

Fun fact, any troop you ask about their K:D ratio can't answer because they're still alive, thus their number of deaths is zero, making the denominator zero and the ratio undefined. I guess you could say they'll only die once so call it one death but that leaves out the potential for more killing as well as reincarnation.

Although reincarnation even once would halve your K:D ratio. Strong argument against it imo
