Again, the western alliance is not making a bad a show of it. They just gave their written response to Putin’s demands in tandem, one from the US and one from NATO on whole. Both continued to hold the line on the sovereignty of Eastern European nations. I tend to agree that Putin is likely to go in deep. He’s a loser either way but he might as well look like a strong loser. Sometimes when the future is bleak people become self destructive just to get it over with. Occupying Ukraine will bring about an extensive conflict and that is the way we should go because we (the alliance) will ultimately outlast the Russians and prevail.
Yeh sure, and Trump - as we hear from the tards everyday- was a bad guy for underscoring the fact that NATO had become a bunch of freeloaders with certain members being as worthless as tits on a nun.

Maybe the Krauts will redeem themselves a bit by sending a large supply of body bags to the Ukrainians. Let's see how that works out.
The Krauts are obviously not the smoothest animals when it comes to public relations. I just saw a picture of the helmets they sent. (below). Yeh, they have work to do in tidying up their image a bit. I am pretty sure this will bring back some old memories for the Ukranians. Thank you Germany. It is good to have neighbors.
