Quoted: That would never be sustainable, because expansionist dictators have always existed, do exist today, and will in the future.

Quoted: It's probably a communication discrepancy. You're accustomed to an environment where calling someone an asshole is a big deal.

For this reason, we urge you to pair the military and economic support the United States has provided to Ukraine with a proactive diplomatic push, redoubling efforts to seek a realistic framework for a ceasefire.

Quoted: I think that's wrong.

Quoted: Tyranny is a more stable and more common outcome than democracy or republicanism historically. View Quote The animated contest of freedom. FWIW, an oligarchy of any kind will have a better looking government than we ever have. That's because the government controls everything. In a free country, the government doesn't control anything except maybe international trade and national defense. The balkanization of the several states shall see to it presently. |

Excellent.
Every piece of hardware the Russians lose reduces their threat and allows the U.S. to reallocate more of its conventional forces to the Pacific to counter China. We still need to be pushing the Germans to live up to their commitment to expand their military. If the Germans could increase/modernizer their military that combined with Finland, Poland, and the UK I think we could finally at least for a time leave European security up to the damn Europeans. Asia needs to be westernized and under U.S. influence more heavily. The bulk of our military and foreign policy focus needs to be on China. We allow traitors to feed our enemy the CCP until now they are a big beast that has to be addressed. |
