Greenwald makes a good point that Russia supports Syria, which is a threat to Israel.
So there is no clear American interest in Ukraine, but there is an Israeli interest in weakening Russia to weaken Syria, to benefit Israel.
Watching more now...
Iran, North Korea, China, Hamas and Hezbollah also support Russia and vice versa.
How many allies do we need to throw under the bus and how many despots and Islamists do we have to tolerate to appease Putin's cockup invasion?
Why do you keep repeating the obvious falsehood that this was an unprovoked invasion?

Ukey Nazi Fluffers gotta fluff.

Let me get this straight:
1. Trump wins. Putin immediately expresses openness for peace talks (as Trump predicted).
2. Biden gives permission for Ukraine to launch American missiles into Russian territory, after 2.5 years of forbidding it. Biden also starts sending Ukraine anti-personnel land mines (which will be maiming Ukrainian kids for the next 50 years, but let’s set that aside for now).
3. Russia, in response, starts launching ICBMs at Ukraine (non-nuclear, but still nuclear-capable).
Unless I’m missing something here, it sure feels like Joe Biden and his lame-duck administration have needlessly escalated a war that was otherwise on the verge of ending. Rather than discussing the terms of an armistice, we’re letting Zelenskyy plant American mines in Ukrainian soil and shoot American missiles into Russian territory.
I’m pro-Ukraine. I feel terrible for the Ukrainian people, and I desperately want them to have peace. What we’re doing right now, though, is utter insanity. These people have less than two months left in office, and apparently they’re intent on spending every last day of it dragging us into World War III.
That Russian ICBM with 9 MIRV warheads is a pretty pricey piece of hardware.
Make no mistake - this time it's not a bluff.
Fuck all of you who think that globohomo can fuck around and have the bear roll over.
There will be a limited nuclear exchange, initiated by Ukraine or NATO, and 2-3 cities with millions of people will die. All this to cover up the sins Trump is trying to bring to light. Goddamn those corrupt deep state psychopaths. At least in Kennedy's day, he could barely keep the MIC in check.

Putin is not going to shoot a nuke anywhere.
Putin richly deserves what is happening to Russia; his dream of reviving the old Russian/Soviet empire is not going to happen.
socal2 was asked for very specific info yet returned a multiparagraph filibuster instead.
At what point do rational leaders in the West (if there are any left) pause, consider that the war is lost in Ukraine, deescalate and seek a treaty to end the war?

"President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday suspended Russian participation in the last remaining nuclear arms control treaty with the United States, warning Washington that Russia had put new ground-based strategic nuclear weapons on combat duty," Reuters reports of the new declaration.
