it'd be a good play to tee up reports like this ahead of time
So the usual suspects can turn around and go 'SEE? THEY WERE PLANNING THIS AND WE ALREADY KNEW IT WAKE UP SHEEPLE!'
or they could've said it and done it themselves to bullshit
Russia most likely knows that people who *support* Trump would flip out if he brings the hammer down on this
Which would also be an excellent play
All I know is, we can't trust Putin
Consider the amount of militant shit Russia has done over the last 8-10 years
People appear to have completely forgotten about Georgia
Even the last gas attack was sketchy
And that's because noone ever responds militarily to anything they do
Abkhazia and South Ossetia don't exist I guess
So they'll just keep on prodding
Ukraine too
Because it would result in nuclear war
Its a hard game to play
Knowing that NATO countries (or at least their populace) are terrified that any military response would lead to a major war
rightly so
Even though the more likely outcome would be Russia backing off
I don't see anyone not being terrified with that
Because there are *m u l t i p l e* steps inbetween this and nuclear war
Puty knows what he's doing
they fight back
The last thing we need, is someone putting Russia into a corner where they see themselves without any hope
He's not in a corner. at all. ironically enough he's doing a damn good job of putting other countries into a corner and then hamstringing the efforts of any larger country responding to it
anyhoo, see how this plays out over the next few days
Yeah, he is not
It makes sense to do it in Syria though
Keep it externalised
we need NATO to start doing serious Military Exercises in the Baltic Sates, and maybe Japan
What I'm saying is, no one should be putting him into a corner
Plus, I guess putin is the moderate one, there is a few warhawks in Russia too
Well, we need to do *SOMETHING* about it, what to do, I'm not sure, I'm not an expert on geopolitics,. Nor do I claim to be, and I'm not trying to Hogg about just saying do *SOMETHING*, but we can't continue to let the Russians walk over us like they are
Also, Hogging is now a thing you can do
Definition: Demanding solutions without having any idea of what those could be
Us still has sanctions on them?
yes
more than Obama
just yesterday more were added
on Putins oligarchs
NATO is already doing military exercises in the Baltics
my buddy gets deployed in a couple months
