Do you honestly think Russia would continue to trade with the world after murdering millions of Ukrainians? They can barely feed their own citizens. Please move to Moscow.

Russia is running out of bodies unless it actually declares war, much of its manpower is not available. It definitely is running low on equipment and ammo

States and local governments are responsible for the lockdowns, not the Feds. Note that North Dakota never locked down or mandated anything, it only gave recommendations for mitigation

The two viewpoints are actually mutually exclusive.
“Russia is being killed at rates 2-3 times that of the Ukrainians (even with reports of Ukraine losing anywhere from 500-1000 a day). And they are running out of ammo and soldiers.”
“If Russia isn’t stopped now, they’ll be in Paris by November!”
Those viewpoints can’t both exist simultaneously.

Good grief, what is being stated is an invasion of the Baltics, former satellite states which were part of the USSR. Putin telegraphed this well over a decade ago to restore the old USSR borders. Those nations are part of NATO. There is a big difference in declaring special operations with declaration of war. The former handcuffs Putin with limited use of manpower. The later unleashes all available manpower as it would be an attack against NATO insuring that all MATO members are dragged into it.
Your statement is the inconsistent one.

How exactly?
If Russia got Ukraine, uncontested, they may well have still tested NATO’s resolve to invoke Article 5 (in this hypothetical scenario, they would not have been deterred by NATO’s hardware like they are now since we allowed them to attack Ukraine uncontested).
All of a sudden, if Putin decided to inch into NATO territory (such as the former Eastern Bloc counties, like the Baltics, which he wants to control, and has all but said he would like to invade), we are stuck in a no-win scenario where the only way to deter Putin’s further aggression is to threaten nuclear weapons, which is a scenario we don’t want to find ourselves in.
Arming Ukraine and tying Putin up in quagmire there guarantees that he won’t even think of coming towards the NATO border.

Also keep in mind that everyone in this thread cheering on this war don’t give a single frick about what we’ve been doing in Syria, Libya, Yemen, or Somalia. So I’m not going to hear it how I’m the heartless one when all that’s going on.
A) You don’t know my stance one the ME conflicts and our involvement
B) I don’t support any of the ones you named, think Iraq was a terrible idea that has lead to far more instability in the region, including in part the Syrian civil war.
C) The dynamics of ME conflict and European conflict are far different
D) One can differentiate between the different geopolitical issues and support one and not the other

We have plenty fertilizer and diesel in the USA, way more than Russia in diesel. Warehouses are full of fertilizer, the cost is up due cost of raw materials, all sourced in the USA and Canada.
There was a perceived shortage after 50% of fertilizer manufacturing in the USA was shutdown for two months because of Hurricane Ida last fall. This percentage is on the Mississippi River between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. The supply chain from such manufacturing was not impacted enough to be out of fertilizer. Many are already close to be full.
The doomsday folks never considered that two large fertilizer manufacturing complexes came online in 2021. One in Nigeria and the other in Morocco.

By the time I could vote, I was fully on the Ron Paul bandwagon.
That explains things. Do you also consider USMC guards at embassies and consulates as military bases like Ron?
Do you support grant money as earmarks to multinational companies as Ron doled out to keep union members voting for him?
What about a VA clinic in a minority town in the far western part of his district which had no veterans, but no clinic anywhere else?
Do you believe that national defense should be limited to the distance a sailing ship's cannonball can fly, 12 miles?

So my buddy who was born in Ukraine whose parents are Ukrainian can't support Ukraine or their family? WTF is wrong with you. What if Russia destroyed oxford. Would all Ole Miss fans waving an ole miss flag also have your similar thought process?

It sure is losing support globally, even with China. China never trusted Russia anyway
