you think China is willing to completely collapse their economy to help a backwater water country like Russia in a war?

According to the map in your OP's link the U.S. "spy plane" only flew along the Black Sea coastline of Romania, not even in Ukrainian airspace much less Russia's airspace. But you seem to think Russia should be shooting that plane down, right?



Yes you fricking tard, it’s being used to target important command centers. Who cares where it’s at, what nation will join a war because a spy plane got shot down?

Russia is losing planes and helicopters to a country with no air force. They are losing boats to a country with no navy. They’re a freezing North Korea with nukes. If they had no nukes the country would have dissolved into 7+ independent states with the fall of the USSR.


How are people genuinely this fricking dumb? Planes don’t take out planes in a war and ships don’t take out ships. Missiles do, one advantage Ukraine has is the combined intelligence and targeting of 30 nations.

Maybe we could get Trump go over there and broker a peace deal as a private citizen. He’d probably get it sorted out with the quickness.

I agree. Putin is in on it, the laundering. These bastards are all getting rich off of hard working Americans. Nato is getting theirs too.

LOL…..Not only will China never get into a direct military confrontation with their biggest trade partners, what do you think it is that keeps them from taking control of Hong Kong and Taiwan?

Okay, so Rhode Island and New Hampshire are ready to attack the other lower 46? Terrifying.

It’s a sign of weakness. That’s exactly what it is. Your hypothesis that Putin could win the war quickly if he wasn’t a humanitarian is laughably foolish.

No matter if we win or not the amount of US live loss if we enter this war would be the worse since WW2. It’s not worth send our young men to die for our politicians money laundering nation.

Everyone agrees with this. You are arguing a point against nobody.

Russia will not can not lose this war.

What does “lose this war mean”? No one thinks the Ukrainians are going to march on Moscow. Very few think they will liberate Crimea. I would guess that a small minority believes they can be evicted to the status quo ante. Any of those would be considered defeat.

But a negotiated settlement, in which they get to keep some of the land they occupy? Is that defeat? It certainly isn’t what they were hoping for initially, and they will have paid a price for it that will subjugate them for decades. There will be no Marshall Plan for Russia. They will sit on the other side of the border watching Ukraine be rebuilt, forbidden from participating. That sounds a lot like defeat to me.

direct military confrontation


Doesn’t have to be direct. Supplying Russia what they need isn’t direct. Helping ISIS and AL Queda out isn’t direct, setting bases in Cuba and helping Cuba isn’t direct.

I wouldn’t bet against Chyna going direct if they think it’s in their long term interest. If they see a path to cripple us into submission (or a large part of the country into submission) and gain their top of the world standing they’ll do it in a heart beat.
