The bottom line as to why we are not helping Ukraine is: The U.S. and NATO are cowards and are afraid to face Russia.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow okay, now i challenge you to point out exactly where I insulted [i]you[/i] specifically.

I threw a stone into a pack of dogs. If you yelped then that must mean...

@Eternity I am done. Have fun playing with yourself.

@SW-User It was started by Putin 25 years ago.

@SW-User

Putin doesn't care about sanctions. He already made that calculation.

@beckyromero Yeah, but there still is some satisfaction in knowing they are being applied.

Wall Street determines whether we go to war or not. Wall Street owns the democrats. @Keepitsimple

@anythingoes477 He can be killed with 1,000 cuts. Just watch.

@Lanyx Russia was nice enough to give them the Holodomor however.

@irishmolly72 So your solution is..........WE should invade a sovereign nation to "help them"...............instead of letting Russia invade them to "help them"? Right?

Ukraine has NEVER asked to be in NATO. Ever......not once. But now they want NATO protection?? I'm not for Russia invading anyone..anytime......but if we invade Ukraine.....the original capital of the U.S.S.R........who has NEVER asked to be in NATO....then we are the invaders. And that is Putin's excuse for WWIII. What we "can't allow and what we "better not even consider" is worlds apart. Screaming for us to invade Ukraine...is demanding millions of deaths in another world war. Think.

@markansas There is a big big difference though. Russia only has access to about 180k soldiers.

Back when Ukraine was part of the USSR the airborne division alone was bigger than that.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow time will tell and the ones suffering will be the worker class . rebuilding the powerplants the cities ect . i feel for them and yet i myself can do nothing but watch. kinda sad to see. i hope it does not bring back the cold war or even worse . this is what they are going threw now.

@markansas Sadly this is the cost of every war in history. But Russia simply doesn't have the numbers. Ukraine has a similar population to Iraq and the US has 10k more troops to occupy with and still failed after 15 years trying. It just isn't an option. It also doesn't fit with their most recent military operations.

@GrinNude Hopefully, you don't start hoarding.

@MarkPaul I won't. LOL.

@Graylight You should be listening to sloppy Steve Bannon, Tucker Carlson, Marsha Blackburn, and Marjorie Taylor-Greene like "the base" does. Don't you see how well informed they are?

@eMortal Russia exports around 4-5 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude and another 2-3 million bpd of refined products. China, the European Union, South Korea, India and Japan are its main buyers. You'll notice the US isn't even on the list.

And it's not hurting us to help Europe at all.

January saw most LNG shipped to Europe from U.S.

The U.S. became Europe’s largest source of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in 2021, accounting for 26% of all LNG imported by European Union member countries.

In January 2022, the United States supplied more than half of all LNG imports into Europe for the month.

Exports of LNG from the United States to EU-27 and the UK increased from 3.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in November 2021 to 6.5 Bcf/d in January 2022—the most LNG shipped to Europe from the United States on a monthly basis to date, according to the U.S. Department of Energy’s LNG Monthly reports and our own estimates, which are based on LNG shipping data.

If prices go up at our pumps, you can thank capitalism.

@Graylight The US LNG is more likely expensive to Europeans.

@JonLosAngeles66 He will use them either way and he will continue to do as he wishes by using nukes as a threat because we are showing him it works well.

@FeetAreFantastic right? All these fat old fuckers telling the young and able to go fight and die. What a load of shit.

[b]YOU[/b] roll your gastric bypass geriatric fucking asses out there and fight if it's so God damned worth it then!
