What we have is a Middle East going up in smoke because dumbasses like Kerry refuse to see actually want everytime we loosen sanctions and release money to Iran, the Ayatollahs and IRGC send much of it to their 3H club of proxies (Houthis, Hamas, Hezbollah).

Ukraine is a conflict that Cold War holdovers created.

We're running out of essentials like 155mm and we're responding to dirt cheap Russian ordinance with expensive missile systems. Houthis are attacking us with obsolete cheap systems, we're retaliating ineffectually with tip of the spear extra-expensive ordinance.

"Exhaust the enemy by striking with cheap shit, while he responds with his expensive systems. Use his MIC's greed against him."

The solution to Iran is easy: kill IRGC top leaders outside Iran and make them tremble with fear every time they leave their own country to help their proxies. Iran was using Obama's palettes of cash to terrorize Iraq through proxies. We killed Suleimani and the Iranians stopped cold in their tracks and did nothing of note for the rest of the Trump Administration.

You think their nukes work? lol.

Riddle me this, Wookie...How come the US has never attacked a nuclear power? Why does the US only go after tiny 3rd world shit holes? And even then, they eventually give up and run? I admit, we pounded Iraq the first time around...with the help of almost the entire world.

Why does the US put so much effort into not allowing Iran or any other "our enemies" who don't want DEE Mockeracy?

Iran is full of whackos who want the Mahdi back. Iranian Influencers leave out the part where Iran is controlled by the fanatical IRGC who thinks the more chaos they create, the faster the Mahdi will emerge from the Holy Well of Qom

While having their propaganda accuse their enemies of trying to hasten the Apocalypse of John.

Rules of engagement. Much of the time my dad was flying around Vietnam during the war he was only allowed to blow up egg plant fields. No reason to send our troops anywhere anymore unless/until that is waved. Puts our troops in a disadvantage.

Incidentally, we should have probably not engaged in any wars post Korea except for maybe beating back Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. Maybe not even that.

Look at the uproar leading to the Islamic revolution there in 1979. So now advance forward from 1979, and you wonder what percentage of the population is militant there compared to 1979.

And also if you were to give a militant score with a 100 being assigned to the year 1979, what would be the militant score for Iran in 2024 ?

Dude, Putin and Russia don't have the capabilities to even take out a land neighbor. They've lost major ships in a non-naval war. You think their nukes work? lol. Against Ukraine with old Western munitions. The war is a joke Putin will just keep throwing prisoners at.

Of course they work. Why would he use them though, not only making Ukraine unusable but also stirring up a global nuke war. He actually wants to use crimea and donbass so he'll keep throwing military at it of which he has enough. And he's winning. Fact is 1st and 2nd world are quickly fusing together with the 1st world losing ground and the 2nd world gaining. Russia has been doing quite well under Putin.

When you can take pride in your leadership:

The Satanic Inversion Lie is now presumptive for all Western leaders and particularly ours. Great way to give complete credibility to your so called 'enemies', you scum sucking shitbirds.

He should have added Wookie to the poll. Sorry Wookie, I just had to. If you were on it, I'd have voted for you. :)

The problem is that Putin leaves out the Soviet history.

Putin does have a hard-on for the tsars like Peter the Great and Catherine the Great, but looks at Stalin as some prodigal or illegitimate son.

Its as if Putin is erasing Lenin to Khrushchev (and Josef Stalin) as Josef Stalin erased the royal families going back to Peter the Great.

Seems like Putin remembers more the other Josef as in Josef Mengele than Josef Stalin. I guess that is the convenient way of ignoring the other Holocaust called the Holomodor.

Some of you guys are cute. It's funny you have no clue what is going on. If Putin was in a position of power he'd never taken the Tucker interview.

It's literal math and data. Russia is fucked for the foreseeable future. Their nukes don't work. Would have been done by now. I'm embarrassed for you guys how obvious this is. I don't like Biden. I don't like Ukraine. These are just factual observations of the situation. I don't hate Russia. I don't care. That hemisphere can die and I wouldn't even notice. I'm not sure how much clearer I can be.

Hahaha, why do you feel the need to tell us you don't care? Seriously, is America even in a postition of power? The whole world is a stage, no? I don't think anyone here thinks Putin is some kind of savior.

Putin wants peace. Why do the US and NATO keep funding Ukraine to fight this war? Why doesn’t Ukraine settle?

Putin needs to put what he wants in writing. Putin said he wanted Ukraine to not join NATO. And I don't think Ukraine as well as NATO trusts Putin as far as him saying Russia can provide security for Ukraine.

So I don't see Ukraine disarming as Putin wants. It had a military before Putin invaded Crimea.

Bring in UN peace keepers and observes in eastern Ukraine as part of cease fire.

"It's literal math and data. Russia is fucked for the foreseeable future."

If that is true, then how come the Crimea and Eastern Ukraine are now part of Russia? No Answer!

Eman says

I guess some of the Ukrainians have spoken. They actually believe Putin and asked Zelenskyy to resign. He appears to be a puppet for the US.

How come Russia has lost multiple naval assets in a non-water war and had a bridge blown up? Running a great shit show is all I'll say about Crimea. Eastern Ukraine is a Russian defensive war where the land is currently useless. Congrats on holding land you can't do much with under constant artillery fire?? Mines? "Winning"

Does anyone actually read up on what is happening with this war? Does anyone not know what happens in this region when there's a war?

Eman says

No he doesn't. The man is a liar just as much as Biden has dementia. We are at war with Russia. They always have had expansionist tactics since the USSR days. Besides the oil/gas in the ground they have some of the shittiest land on the planet. No different then Canada where everyone lives at the border. They don't want to have to import much of their food. Average Russians are poorer than the poorest in the US. They want more farmable land and that's Ukraine. Then Poland. Then who knows what else.

Not sure what's so hard to understand about this. This was a long time coming and that's what NATO was for. At the end of the day I'd like to just be 100% out of that hemisphere completely. It's a shit hole. It will always be in conflict. Always has been. All the world wars have been over there. The Western hemisphere has been generally peaceful for 150 years with minor skirmishes. We should be giving zero shits about any of it. I'm just giving a factual thought on what is happening. Sorry if you're Russian. Knowing the ones I know you're likely a loser.

Eman's a Russian loser?

Source?

Or are you just bullshitting about things you don't know?

Ukraine doesn’t settle with Russia because it’s being paid huge sums by the USA and other NATO countries to forcibly conscript citizens to die with inadequate weapons and almost no training so the Ukrainian oligarchy can continue getting richer.
Why does the USA finance this? It’s to tie up Russian military while we try to kick off a war with Iran. Unfortunately, Iran is being very smart and cagey, refusing to give Biden a decent reason to declare war despite the most heinous provocations Biden and Netanyahu could dream up.
So we need another $60 billion to keep Zelenskyy’s pimp hand strong, his coalition intact, and the people of Ukraine marching to die under Russian guns.

It’s really really really gross and despicable.
But that’s America!

This is what Robert F Kennedy had to say. Who wants peace and who wants war. It makes sense why the establishment hates Trump so much.

While our government has no budget to build the walls along the border. No budget to build houses for our veterans and no budget to build shelter for the homeless.

Of course, Putin wants peace as long as his goals are met. Keep Donbas, costal area and Krym officially as Russian territory. There is no other peace.

There was a referendum for Crimea on favor to join Russia, but it was conveniently declared "illegal". Sounds like acceptable terms overall

We can have budget for everything we want. It is just about priorities. Military industry cannot make money if government is building walls, houses for veterans or homeless people. This is how "OUR" democracy works.

I remember very well how in Russia or in other communist countries referendums and elections worked. They mastered those events to the max. Results were ALWAYS as expected.

It was considered without irregularities by those who observed, also it makes sense if you look at the people who live in that region. It was declared illegal for other reasons. The Western referendums certainly aren't better these days, the EU parliament was never elected, they are just dictators. The 2020 election was stolen. Not a fan of putin, but we have no business questioning it.

yep, can still maintain strategic forces like Virginia class nuclear submarines with nuclear cruise missiles and torpedos and prioritize spending ...

they can slow the growth of the pentagon budget to 2% below annual inflation and still maintain readiness

I say also slow growth for other government spending as well to slightly below inflation

that is how you can avoid a debt crisis just like a household slightly reduces spending and deposits the savings into retirement account
