  • At no point have I made the argument that Russia can take on Ukraine and all of Europe - that is your argument, not mine.

    Correct, but if you agree this is not possible them we know Russia won’t be able to attack Europe in any significant fashion, no?

    As for the military force of Ukraine, there is no country in Europe that has a stronger, better trained, more battle hardened military force than Ukraine right now.

    Yes, after years of the current fight against Russia… Ukraine was not in this battle-hardened shape when the conflict started which actually implies the opposite point you are trying to make. Right now, after the example Russia set with Ukraine, most European countries would be much better prepared than Ukraine was a few years ago (plus they will definitely have Ukraine ready to whisper any Russian weak spot they have uncovered)

    I see no reason to think that they would be equally stupid again.

    Russia or the rest of Europe? If you are talking about Russia, this makes no sense as you’d seem to imply they have a much stronger military might available right now to really hurt a Baltic or European country, yet they are happy being beaten by Ukraine on a daily basis?

    If Russia decided to throw 100000 men with pitchforks against a Baltic country, they would probably take it, simply by being more men.

    Again, and they are choosing NOT to do this against Ukraine because losing is a better option?!


  • There are decent people left in the US, but my main point is, that it IS unknown - the second you tell the US to fuck off, the unknown part goes away.

    Sorry man (or woman), but thinking the USA will correct on a dime today, specially against Russia, is completely wishful thinking.

    As for Russia, only a fool would write off a nation with a one million man strong army

    Not writing them off, and thanks for the back handed insult, but again, evidence shows they have been utterly unable to take control of Ukraine… but you’d have us believe that they can take on Ukraine and all of Europe?

    Here you are literally playing to believe what you want: on one hand the USA may turn good again somehow despite all evidence to the contrary… at the same time, we all must fear Russia, despite all evidence to the contrary again

    I don’t think Putin would take on all of Europe, but I do think that he could decide to test the European resolve by taking on one or more of the Baltic countries. If he succeed…

    Like they succeeded in Ukraine? a much weaker enemy?
