Good, Both Ukraine and Israel need to fight their own wars.

Every dollar spent on Ukraine is more Russian blood in the ground. And we get to feed the MIC.

Good ROI if you ask me.

Plus, every dollar spent on Ukraine buys a lessened chance of other nuclear powers trying to invade their neighbors willy-nilly. If Russia is allowed to just invade whomever they want with minimal pushback from the world, that just emboldens more wannabe Putins to start wars of aggression or worse, build up nuclear arsenals.

Yes, every country is an island, just like every man.

How do you not see that Ukraine is fighting not only for itself, but for the entire Western order?

Ukraine is fighting for US. Self-interests and nothing else. The US has not fighting to win this war. The US is fighting to prolong this war to decimate you crane and allow corporations like Citibank and Black Rock to take over all of its resources

Ok then. When Ukraine falls, we'll send in US troops to stop Russia. I take it you'll be first in line to join them.

If you haven't been paying attention Ukraine is failing, and everything we've been told will happen to Russia has been a lie.

So when you see a state fail when pulled into a war by a fascistic country, led by a psychopath dictator who has bigger desires of waging more wars after Ukraine falls, your proposal is to just let them go and fail? Do you need a history lesson on what happened a couple of decades ago when that type of appeasement went very wrong?

There would be no war had the US stayed out of it

Glad you recognize this as a war instead of the russian deceptive ‘special operation’.

And there would be no war if russia did not start one. Lets keep the facts real.

Russia only fired the first shot, the US/Obama started it years back. Let's keep the facts real

Wow. Putin needed to start this war so that Russians would be distracted from the fact that Putin was not good for the country. Obama had nothing to do with it.
