Yes ---

Greedy Western Ruling Class and their Defense Corporation leash-holders wanted more sales. More profits. More campaign donations.

White European nations have tried to colonize, coerce, enslave ever since they came to this planet.

NATO expansion was a great way to express that theme.

In the end, Putin is a devil and failed domestic leader---that is fact.

BUT what the hell is he supposed to do when NATO keeps coming closer to his doorstep? America didn't like missiles in Cuba not too long ago and we certainly wouldn't want a Chinese-branded NATO----signing a deal with Mexico City or Ottawa.

LOl the reset button - culturally ignorant Americans - we shouldn't try playing around even with basic language. There's a reason why foreign merchants go for American tourists first ;)

The fun part is Ukraine. Sheeple was able to shout "I stand with Ukraine". Then sheeple took away jobs and Big Macs from innocent Middle Class Russians.

And yes we DID help Ukraine *but* even under Biden we certainly did NOT fulfill Ukraine's COMPLETE requests and the result? Multi-year death and war. Continued weapons purchases. Continued ammo needs. Innocents died while defense companies profited and --ok, strategically - we made Putin bleed some years. (Europeans love exploiting other people's conflicts--and making both sides drain each other).

Honestly, young Ukrainian or Young Russians --- who lost their family's meager livelihoods or lost their families----well, if they came to Florida to take flying lessons and didn't bother to learn how to land, I'd be the last to judge them.

I'd buy em a Coke and a apologize though.

From NYC to Brussels too Pris--- I hope they all pay a price one day . Im truly enjoying the slow burn. I want tons of foreplay as we are seeing in the news daily now---but I hope th main event comes eventually. Even I'm getting impatient.
