I would like Ukraine better if they made it the death penalty to launder western money there and they got rid of that showman grifter Shitlinksky.  Put somebody else in his place, make a reasonable deal with the Russians that pleases both nations and end this bullshit before it gets worse.

You can literally provide evidence straight from the horses mouth that their goal is to rebuild the Warsaw Pact, and people will still deny it.

Im not sure there is one, the ethnic Russians in some areas are a problem as is the historical naval base in the Crimea.  Its all fine and well for Ukraine to say fuck peace we dont want it, but its cute when its all of us in the West paying all of their bills, so in the end what do they have to lose other than people?  The Russians on the other hand, I dunno they historically are use to loosing millions and not giving a shit, but I wonder how long the Kremlin can keep a lid on the civil unrest that will break out.

I will try to find the article from months ago.  Its thesis was that prior to all recent Russian adventurism there has been a global energy price rise that allowed them the funds to conduct those actions.
View Quote


I found something, anyway.

There are a lot of articles referencing the IHS Markit study, not just this one. But I read it to mean that it takes $42/bbl in 2019 dollars (ballpark $60/bbl in today's dollars according to the pulled-out-of-Centrarchidae's-ass method of inflation calculation) just to get the oil out of the ground. Meaning that cheap oil means Russia has no real hard currency with which to fund their military and their wars of aggression.

I think my own hypothesis is that Putin always wanted to put the band back together and crown himself Tsar of All The Russias And The Other Slavs And The Baltics And The Stans And Georgia And Maybe Romania Too. Expensive energy had nothing to do with his motives, just his (perception of his) ability.

If you've posted anything deserving a non-masturbating response, it wasn't in this thread. Putin launched a war of aggression. He doesn't deserve a settlement that makes him happy. What he and Russia deserve,  at best,  is the bill for rebuilding Ukraine and a settlement which denies them the ability to have a military that can reach outside their own borders.

Peace was available 4 years ago.  Trump told the world how to accomplish it.  Trump was vilified, what was necessary was not done.

If Europe would have prepared themselves against Russia's monopoly on their fuel, Russia would not have had that card to play and probably would have never invaded.  Now we are waiting for winter - because that is when the card goes up in value.


You don't prepare for a war with an enimy by becoming economically dependent on them.


Yup, and we continue our war on domestic energy, thus keeping energy costs high and funding Russia.

But the are “killing orcs” so it is all good.


They’ll go broke and collapse long before we do.

Nobody is making Russia collapse except Russia.  Genocidal wars of expansion are expensive. They’ve shown time and again that they can’t play nice with the Western world, so basically, it couldn’t happen to a better bunch of turds.

Ukraine was a buffer zone. They’re eliminating it.  Former Soviet satellites want to join NATO because they don’t want to be under Russia’s thumb (or annexed) again.  Maybe if they were nicer to their neighbors, those neighbors wouldn’t want protection against them.

So, I’m conclusion, not only has Russia been a bitch to the West, but they’ve also fucked their neighbors.  The conclusion, backed by history, is that Russia doesn’t play well with anyone… thus, the rest of the world cheers when they destroy themselves.

That is 100% correct and fair.
Do you think that NATO and US would allow russia to take over the only other strategic alternative for energy? Let russia have complete monopoly over energy for europe.
Ukraine can sell cheap nuke power, Ukraine can sell cheap coal Ukraine can sell cheap gas Ukraine can sell cheap titanium. The reason why they were invaded is because in 2014 russian appointed dictator was thrown out.
Ukraine was well on the way of becoming the new gas suppler.
Lets not forget Ukraines grain supply, that grain controls the middle east and africa.
People who haven't left their zip code do not understand. The world is a VERY small place, once russia controls europe with energy china moves in to taiwan. Russian grain stolen from Ukraine and chinese belt and road or whatever its called initiative already own china. Middle east is next with the help of Iran. South America is up for grabs too. Alone and isolated is no way to exist just because "10% for the big guy" or "ukraine is corrupt!" etc.

This shit is awful and expensive but the alternative is a Chinese cock up our collective ass.

There's literally no reason to trust any deal the Russians "commit" to. At this point, it should be obvious that Putin's goal is to take all of Ukraine. A ceasefire which hands over Ukrainian land to Putin just means that Putin will wait a few years and come back for more. This has literally already happened; Putin used proxy forces to illegally annex Crimea and part of the Donbas, then came back a few years later with a full blown invasion aimed at taking Kyiv.

The Ukrainians shouldn't settle until they've pushed the Russians back to the pre-2014 borders. It's that simple.

We’re watching Russia commit national suicide in real time.

Once they get done with that we can (hopefully) focus on China. Every moment we can stall China, the closer (hopefully) we get to having a president with a pulse.

Dependance on anyone outside your nation is probably a bad idea, but that ship sailed long ago for Europe.

Dependence is the norm for nations based on their geography. To the extent you can be dependent on liberal democracies instead of autocracies, they would be wise to do so.

I will try to find the article from months ago.  Its thesis was that prior to all recent Russian adventurism there has been a global energy price rise that allowed them the funds to conduct those actions.

I’m curious too.  You’re the one stating an opinion as fact.   Being asked to defend such a position isn’t unreasonable.

Were high energetic prices responsible for Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014?

Still sounds like a theory to me.

Is he calling all Americans turds or the Russian shills and useful idiots?  I’m an American born and raised, what he said doesn’t offend me.

Exactly.  These neocon boomers don't really think things through with this.

Great, Russia collapses.  Oh shit, Russia has a ton of nukes, and I'm sure they're just locked up safe and sound and would never be say, sold on the black market for money for food or something.

I'm just waiting for a black market Stinger to take out a passenger jet in Europe, or here

I would like Ukraine better if they made it the death penalty to launder western money there and they got rid of that showman grifter Shitlinksky.  Put somebody else in his place, make a reasonable deal with the Russians that pleases both nations and end this bullshit before it gets worse.

Is there a death penalty for money laundering here?

How did the deal with the Russians in 1994 help? Or 2015?

C14 says that once Russia breaks apart from this they’re gonna cause problems for those that created problems for Ukraine.  I’d listen to how he kinda laughs at the EU while saying sure, we’ll work with them, but they’re over.  They want an Intermarium suprastate free from Western and Eastern political influence. These guys are the warriors who fought since 2014 without NATO assistance and policed the streets of Kyviv before the Interior Minister changed in the middle of Zelensky’s predidency.

These guys are the Ukrainian al Qaeda of the future, the Viet Cong the Zapatistas.

Short term goals have long term consequences.  As my father once said “America has a problem with arming snd training it’s future enemies” that was in the 1970’s, he wasn’t wrong. He was a Korean war vet, a combat medic.

Nah, they are just nationalists. We have the same here and they are about as relevant. In Russia the same crazies run the country.

Russia’s current political landscape came about because our diplomats and their hedge funders pulled the same shit in post Soviet Russia that they do now in Ukraine.


Also Ukraine’s nationalists have a broad, diversified foreign support network now. It’s been mentioned multiple times as a threat by many foreign intelligence agencies including our own.  Lots of foreign volunteers are sympathetic to the Azov movement and were receiving training and combat experience in Donbas before the invasion.  They have foreign outreach, an ambassador, and public relations staff and host conferences in other countries, especially countries within the proposed Intermarium boundaries.
