He could have, but he's also paranoid. Not saying this is the case, just a possibility. |

A little timeline.
Kiev, in fact, is already conducting military operations in the Donbass, brazenly and with impunity, said Deputy Defense Minister Pankov at a meeting of the Federation Council ⚡️Russia will take all available measures to eliminate the threat to peace in Donbass, said Deputy Defense Minister Pankov -Zvezdanews
The russian SM channels are reporting this to mean in connection of the situation in Donbass. And will be peacekeeping forces per Matvienko.

I hope it stops. Are there any details? I heard talk of Cuba and Venezuela yesterday, possibly Nicaragua. Putin has been working/funding those countries for over a decade and has alluded to putting Russian bases there as far back as 2009. Is anyone (or website) tracking Russian subs near our coastline? There a ton of articles but if there was one site that would be great. Clinton pulled our sub hunters from 250 miles out back to 50 miles out, as far as I know no president has put them back out. And we have no civil defense program since Carter scuttled it (along with stopping AWAC flights near Cuba, and giving away the Panama Canal...). Even with many serious threats from China, Russia, North Korea, no president in modern times has bothered to do jack shit to encourage civil defense, but shelters have been modernized/updated and built for politicians - screw the pee ons. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By New2AR15s: The rest of the world recognizing those regions would be predicated on an agreeement about Ukrain joining NATO. The logic (or lack thereof) would be to cut your losses and reinforce the rest. Russia wanted a buffer, they have their buffer in the new Republics they just recognized. Problem with buffers is once you control the buffer state you get to complain theres no longer a buffer. And the idea that Ukraine is going provoke anything from Russia is getting old. You dont have to provoke a bully to hit you, theyre gonna do it anyway. Sometimes its best to be decisive and commit to action. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By New2AR15s: Originally Posted By TallyGator: Originally Posted By New2AR15s: Is it not possible for Ukraine to cede the regions Russia is taking and then join NATO as part of that deal? Officially recognize them as lost and try and defend what is left if (hahahaha) Russia were to push forward further? FWIW i think this is a bad course of action, but thinking of the possibilities. Potentially, but I'm not sure anyone in the world wants to join Russia in recognizing the provinces as not being part of Ukraine, and there would be a whole lot of handwringing about Russia viewing the extension of NATO membership to Ukraine as provocation. The rest of the world recognizing those regions would be predicated on an agreeement about Ukrain joining NATO. The logic (or lack thereof) would be to cut your losses and reinforce the rest.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Smokey0844: Not looking good Seems that they are going after the claimed territories at minimum. Realistically, I've thought that's Putin's only "win" in this mess. He does something, but not any real escalation of war or strategy. This has always been his end game. Eventually, he'll want that territory to be completely part of Russia. He's already spent tons of money and resources placing 150,000 troops around Ukraine, so if he backs out with nothing, then he looks like a pussy and has provided good intel to his enemies. If he truly invades, then it's even worse. They'll eventually take "control" of a large portion of Ukraine, but at what cost? It could mean a lot of body bags for him simply taking the country. Holding the country could be exponentially worse, as I would think that the insurgent war could be even worse than Iraq and Afghanistan. And with all of that, what does he really get? Land for his pipelines and some farms? Then, if real sanctions are passed, then that just makes it worse for himself, his oligarch buddies, and his country, on top of them burying their sons and brothers. |

Russian bots like to push messages that criticize our lack of border security (“Biden cares more about the border of Ukraine…”), the West’s transgender problems and how Putin hates trannies, and all the things we love to nod our heads about. Then they sneak in messages that furthers their agenda. This has gone on for 50 years. They used to target our Left. Now they target both our Left and our Right, but with different messages. If anyone EVER says “Globohomo,” they are a stooge or and idiot. |

I am not sure why certain individuals feel the need to call anyone who questions our own government as Russian propagandists. Sure, there have been several of those in this thread and it was obvious who they are. But there are others who simply have expressed distrust for both our government and Russia. Seems this issue could splinter conservatives because you have those who believe the narrative Russia is just defending itself and harmlessly moving troops within its own borders. Then you have others who believe Russia can never say anything true and agreeing with anything they say about the US government means you are a Russian agent. I fall somewhere in between. I believe Putin is evil and plans on taking Ukraine and potentially other Eastern European nations. I also believe our government is corrupt and using this opportunity to distract from domestic issues and the Covid narrative collapsing. Russia isn't wrong when they say the US is trying to escalate this war. But they also conveniently leave out they want this war too and that they are the ones starting the whole thing. Both our government and Russia are bad. We should be able to agree on that. At least as conservatives. Liberals will probably just believe whatever they are told by the MSM. |
