[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, why are you concerned about Ukraine? It's not our battle to fight. Maybe volunteer for your local school instead of regurgitating CNN. I think HRC going full-blown McCarthian was ridiculous. We have our problems, people. Stop trying to police the world. We're not that rich and powerful anymore. Better pray Russia and China don't start trading oil in yuan. This is what your headaches should be about.[/quote] NP here. What on earth gives you the idea that it will stop with Ukraine? [b]Exactly how much of the world are you willing to cede to a bloodthirsty dictator?[/b] We are plenty rich and powerful enough to ensure stability in the world, which is both moral and in our best interest as a nation. Your "America is weak" nonsense is simply wrong, and unpatriotic to boot.[/quote] And this is where your total lack of external awareness begins. Russia is not the admirable adversary it is portrayed by the media. It is a bleeding economy that cannot possibly master the means to conquer the whole world. It is a dog that barks but doesn't bite. America is not weak. America is not smart. But its people are waking up to the fact that we can't afford to support the rest of the world anymore. You obviously missed the memo. Stay afraid of Putin if you choose. I can't help but laughing. [/quote] The above is, in a word, ludicrous. Russia has more force projection capability than all of Western Europe combined could possibly deal with (absent US assistance), notwithstanding its economic woes. "Supporting the rest of the world" is not the issue--again, it's in our self interest to create a stable global order. This has been the overwhelming consensus by both conservative and liberal statesmen, wonks, intellectuals, military leaders since the end of WWII. You'd overturn this and endanger our national security for what compelling reason exactly? [/quote]
