cannot change that the nuclear deter-rant failed to deter anything
shareIf the rumors about Ukraine are true....I'm good with that.
shareputin's rumors about Ukraine are false
shareSome ugly things I have heard about Ukraine are definitely not just rumors.
The Wikipedia article on Human Rights in Ukraine states that since 2014, 3 times the number of women have died from domestic abuse than the number of people who have died in the ongoing border conflict. Prior to the current invasion, something like 13,000 people have died. That means 39,000 women have been beaten to death in Ukraine in 8 years.

You’re really using domestic violence deaths as a justification for invasion? When in the USA there’s an average of 16,800 domestic violence deaths annually? Add that up over an eight year period and it far exceeds that figure you provided … so I guess based on your logic you think Russia would be justified in invading the US, right?
shareI beg your pardon? Can you please point out the place in my comment where I said the domestic violence justifies the invasion? No... I didn't think you could.
shareBottom line, Ukraine is not a member of NATO and we have no obligation to step in. I'm not willing to die for their freedom and so I would not vote to send others in my stead. If European countries want to step in, that's up to them.
sharetrue, which means putin wins, he can do whatever he wants no one will stop him
shareNot really because we can sanction the Russian oligarchs, causing them to be in far worse shape than before the invasion.
shareSanctioning will accomplish nothing but the opposite. You have no idea what you are talking about. Russia and China are working together and are now off the petrodollar. Sanctions will now mean fuck all.
Putin can destroy all the biolabs as far as I'm concerned.
You don't know what you are talking about. China has been hesitant to side with Putin during this whole thing.

And how the hell does a functional brain go from China and Russia working together to Putin destroying Chinese biolabs?
It's like you just fantasize these random ideas and drool it out on your keyboard.
Side with them publicly... That article presents no hard evidence of their claims. Also I'm talking about US bio labs in Ukraine dumbass.

The US, UK, Russia and Ukraine did sign the Budapest memorandum in 1994 that gave assurances about respecting territorial boundaries in exchange for Ukraine giving up their nuclear weapons. It's not a treaty but I do think the US and UK should assist Ukraine in their efforts to fight off Russia. It makes the US look bad if we signed this memorandum and then let Ukraine burn.

That expired once Clinton got his photo op.
