[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What possible benefit to the current NATO members is it for Ukraine, a country embroiled in a war, to join NATO?

Why would want to end up in a mutual defense pact with a country with an ongoing military invasion? [/quote]

Russia does represent a threat to entire world as an unstable, amoral nuclear super power. [/quote]

I hear you, but pretending the US is some how moral in contrast is a bit silly.

We’ve used a nuclear bomb in other human beings, and invaded multiple countries for absurd reasons leading to millions of innocent lives lost. Then read the history of the CIA. [/quote]

The nuclear weapons were used to save the world from global domination, whereas Russia is threatening nuclear war because it can't win a military conquest to seize the territory of a former ally.

True that Korea and Vietnam were invaded, which was a shameful part of U.S. history.  However, as you can see, the U.S. has learned much from those experiences and now visits both countries amicably as tourists.  Granada, Afghanistan, were in response to hostages or 9/11 attack on American soil.

Iraq was pushed by the Republican party, and now we may know why?

Sorry Boris, your propaganda is lacking.[/quote]

The Japanese were not going to dominate the world. Germany had already surrended when we dropped the bombs. The bombs were used solely to prevent the loss of more American soldiers at the cost of targeting non-combatants. The ethics are this decision are still questioned today.[/quote]

No the ethics are not in question today. There would have been a magnitude great civilian death count with a US invasion of Japan.

A study done for Stimson's staff by William Shockley estimated that invading Japan would cost 1.7–4 million American casualties, including 400,000–800,000 fatalities, and five to ten million Japanese fatalities.[/quote]
