If Russia enters the Ukraine

@QuixoticSoul I think the last point is mostly where we disagree.

I mean by that logic the Fenian raids were a US invasion of Canada and even our historians don't go that far.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I suspect that if they were carried out by US regular military the definition might be applied.

Russians annexed a province, and created an independent enclave by force - both proxy and covert, but also by operating battalion-sized formations on Ukrainian soil. I think that if Ukrainians want to define that as an invasion, they certainly can, and they don’t even look silly doing it.

@QuixoticSoul Actually, there were serving US military involved in the command of the raid. Of course the US government officially had no idea and officially reprimanded them...after they failed of course.

They also turned a blind eye when an army of over 1000 formed on the border.


As far as I can tell the only major distinction is one failed and one succeeded.

@ChipmunkErnie If they do go in, it’s just the start of what’s to come. I predict Biden and his handlers will screw it up and open the door for other world trouble makers to get what they want too. China in Taiwan, Iran’s wish list, and who knows what N Korea will do.

@carpediem why do you refer to those countries as trouble makers?

@Longleggedlady Seriously? China threatening Taiwan, letting loose a pandemic across the globe, currency manipulation, and more. Iran has a wacko regime who would nuke Israel in 2 seconds if they could. Also they instigate and financially support terror and other problems in the middle east, and North Korea being a nuclear nation now shooting missiles again into the Sea of Japan.

Amazing you can't figure that out.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow In point of fact, it's rumored he has a successful career as an actor.

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays Now, you're doing commercials for board games?

@MarkPaul Gotta support myself somehow since they cut off my food stamps.

@smiler2012 it is just a bit of a threat if USA, EU, Nato and Ukraine give give they will pull back.
As for Europe it could become very dark and cold in lots of parts of it
