People went wild over the coverage and access to video we had for the first time during the Gulf War but this is next level stuff.

Gives a real "on the ground" feel to what they're going through right now. Frankly it's very eerie.


Sounds weird, but the spread of cell phone cams and getting all these eye-witness accounts only helps Ukraine because of how easily it brings the horrors of war to everyone - more so than Vietnam, the Gulf War, or the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Now, we've seen horrible videos of war posted before so I'm not saying it will change much - but it definitely allows global sentiment across the globe to build against Russia if stuff like this keeps coming out.

ETA: And puts the pressure on governments to do something about it.

we certainly wouldnt let them come to us. USA is in a perfect defensive position being surrounded by ocean on both sides and allies to the north and south.

A Chinese landing in Mexico would be something. The cartels would make a hell of an underground resistance force.

The cartels/chinese would be allies. They both flood the US with fentanyl.

Anybody have any doubts that if Trump was president right now, Putin wouldn’t be invading Ukraine right now?


Joe Biden is only encouragement for our enemies to act. If not now, then when? It’s a perfect time to do it. Weak president, prime opportunity.

They create 92% of the world’s advanced computer chips and it’s in the middle of the world’s busiest trade route. You will feel it hardcore when China invades Taiwan. Ukraine I just think you’ll feel it at the tank, but Taiwan you will feel in every aspect of your fiscal life.



Here's the thing though, I think a war with China may be necessary though. We simply MUST stop the way we're dealing with them.

That’s what got us into Syria. Kobane cell phone videos of Kurdish fighters defending against ISIS went viral.
