The Narrative™ surrounding the war is riddled with fallacies, just as The Narrative™ was throughout the pandemic. The truth is the United States played a key role in instigating the conflict. And Putin had been warning of this invasion for years as one development after another left Russia, a country with a long history of being invaded, increasingly isolated by the West.

Despite what the media would have you believe, a lot of strategic thinkers cautioned that war was likely if the West continued down the path it’d been following since the fall of the Soviet Union, and they argue that the U.S. could have, and should have, prevented the breakout of war by offering to retract support for Ukraine to one day join NATO.

The War can only end with more war. Most wars end in a negotiated peace but not this war. This is the first war in history that can only end with more war.

I don't have to support Putin to distrust all the war mongers. Both sides of the political aisle want war for some reason. War will bring on the Reset by doing more damage so they can offer us "peace" in the form of their NWO.

Fat General Milley still dealing with his "white rage."

Oh wait, the Russians are white people.

Darth Vader Lloyd Austin is keeping his buddies at Raytheon happy.

Pentagon is too busy trying to figure out what pronouns to use.

Has Gordon Chang been correct about anything. He’s made a living peddling Chinese hysteria for quite a while. He’s branching out now

At least Schroedinger's cat had mathematical proof backing it up. Schroedinger's Russia? Not so much.

Hard not to root for Russia, can’t lie. And if you woulda said that I’d be sympathetic towards them 5 years ago I’d say you were insane

Had Putin nuked the last meeting of WEF in Davos, problem solved.

You know, sometimes they're all horrible. We need some big brawny coopers with a whole peck of rusty nails to stud the barrels with, and half these schmucks can be rolled down the Potomac and the other half can be rolled down the Volga, and maybe the rest of us can get some breathing room.

I myself think that leaders with a taste for poisoning the opposition are very small men indeed, and really--it's OK to hate *all* of them, to recognize that *all* of them have been making wretched the lives of a great many millions of ordinary people worldwide, in every sort of regional misadventure, and honestly, Jordan, this sort of writing makes me trust you just a wee little bit less than I'd like to.

Is it a war or just another money-laundering operation?

And...America “elected” a guy who showers with his daughter

So there’s our moral high ground

Also good luck occupying a country of 40 million people that all hate you. The US military is far superior to Russia and we couldn’t occupy Iraq and Afghanistan even when a large percentage of the people liked us. Ukraine’s best strategy would be to let Russia win and then pick them off one by one during occupation. Peter Zeihan regurgitates the same crap about Russia moving on Poland next. These people live in clown world.
