Decomposed > I don't think Russia has any intention of invading the Ukraine.


Well, De.
It seems to be a fact that Putin DID put a lot more troops in a position from which they 'could' invade Ukraine.

And if the 'Western Powers' had conceded I think Putin might very well have invaded. Instead, I've been hearing that a number of NATO countries have been sending weapons and munitions to Ukraine. Meaning if Putin does invade it is going to be a lot more costly than it might have been.

It could have been that Putin was trying to 'just stop' NATO expansion . . . But given that Russia already invaded and stole Crimea, took a little bite out of a country named Georgia, and tried to seize the Donbas portion of Ukraine I would not put invading past them.

But I agree with you that biden's owners (and the demorats) would love nothing more than to be able to use the 'Ukraine' meme as a distraction from their own disastrous machinations.

Re: “Does anybody out there think we would be hearing all this crap about Putin and the Ukraine if Trump were prez?”
No. Mostly because I don't think the stories are true. I don't think Russia has any intention of invading the Ukraine. It has little to offer Russia, and half of the Ukrainians already consider themselves Russian.

I do think Russia sees the Ukraine as a vassal state, or as a buffer against further NATO expansion toward it... similar to the way we'd see Canada if Alaska didn't exist and Russia was expanding toward us. But does Russia want to invade the Ukraine? I don't think so. It doesn't have a motive.

This is a WAG-THE-DOG event. Fake. Designed to distract the public.
