[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Russia wants to decimate their economy, let them.  Ukraine is vastly better armed and battle hardened compared to 2014. It will be a quagmire for Putin, and the sanctions alone will obliterate their economy.  They won't be able to finance it for very long.  Occupation is a lot harder than invasions.  There will be years and years of insurgencies that will be difficult to eliminate.  This may end up encouraging a country like Finland to join NATO. [/quote]

This.

[b]And if the Russians are forced out of SWIFT, it will kill their economy and isolate the oligarchs money. that won't stand.

There is a theory that the Ukraine build-up is a deflection of the Russian annexation of Belarus. That may make more sense.[/quote]

Why do you think they developed Bitcoin and Ethereum? And now they've got US banks chopping at the bit to transact in it, plus a bunch of Americans have wealth tied up in it. There's a big contingent of wealthy Americans aligned with Russia on this (and opposed to the USD). [/quote]

Lol. Bitcoin and Ethereum are increasingly moving more and more in lock step with the stock market. All the US would have to do is raise interest rates to give the stock market a good haircut while simultaneously taking out bitty. Kill two birds with one stone - inflation + any idiots betting on bitty.[/quote]
