And, just like that, you went from me having no opinion of you to recognizing you as one of the campfire idiots.
Well done?

From where I’m standing it looks to be an act of war by NATO against Russia.

I’ll take that as a compliment as you are obviously a poor judge of character and easily fooled.

Conspiracy theorists are the ones who see it all coming…
Last night I went to a dinner where former SECDEF/General Jim Mattis was the featured speaker.
A humble man of great accomplishment.
He took questions from the crowd, and I spoke with him a bit after the event.
He's 100% of the view that Russia is in the wrong, that Putin is in real trouble, that NATO is doing everything possible to contain the war in Ukraine, and the Secretary General of NATO is working tirelessly to keep it from becoming a regional or continental war.
It was a very interesting conversation.
No doubt he has access to more/better Intel even now than anyone here. But he’s also a political creature. I’m not a fan of his, but would consider myself fortunate if I got to have a conversation with him.

I’d be honored to put the noose around his neck and open the trapdoor after his trial and conviction.

I'll bet that would get you our of your parent's basement on a big adventure!
Yeah!
More good judgement...I joined the Navy shortly after my 18th birthday and haven’t been home except for short visits in the last 36 years. Self employed for the last 16 years.

Didn't the Ukraine kill thousands of it's own people on the boarder with Russia and ignore the vote that was legally done that would have given them more autonomy?
Thats what Putin would have you believe.
Nah, I don't think the Russians are really into propaganda. They always tell it like it is. They're just like Boy Scouts that way.

Does the anti lynching law Bidet signed, that was just quincidently recently passed , prevent the Military from hanging those found guilty of treason?
They could make money selling tickets to watch and also for chances to pull the lever.

He strongly believes in Allies as the way forward vs. US going it alone, or pulling back from the community of nations.
I don't especially like many of the European countries, but I'd rather fight over there than over here.
Correct. Isolationism isn't viable anymore. It also seems like this war has gotten some of the Euros off their asses and funding their militaries more like they should've been all along.
