Russia/Ukraine Megathread V5

[Seano]

Do people think setting up a no fly zone will automatically lead to nuclear destruction? Maybe it’s too big a risk but I doubt Russia wants to get destroyed by being the first one to fire off a nuke.

It certainly increases the odds.

 

[Zazen]

Time to save the mother fuckin day! America! Fuck yeah!!


Shit it just doesn’t feel right without us being in a war.

We're at war now. We are the ones sanctioning Russia and Putin sees that as an act of aggression. You don't need to have soldiers on the ground to be at war anymore.

 

[Hellowhosthat]

What would end it? Exactly. What happens if in a desperate last gasp Putin decides to nuke (insert any number of countries here)?

It would end if everyone is dead.

 

[bobgeese]

so are we cowards now?

Are we "cowards" when we don't engage in any of the other daily atrocities that happen around the world?

Stop being emotional and use your brain FFS.

We could end a war with Russia quickly when we couldn't end a war with a bunch of rag tag warlords in Afghanistan after 20 years?

Wut

Well can we at least get an official declaration of war then? This all feels like whiskey dick.

 

[Fugazy]

It would cause a cold war-era nuclear stand off, and we shouldn't be the world's police force anyways

then who?

Did you say the same when we invaded Iraq under false pretenses? A country was invaded and non-combatant civilians were dying and crying for help. How come no one stopped us?

[Crom Cruach]

I think OP is onto something.

Leslie Nielsen and Rick Moranis should make some zany comedies where Putin us the bad guy.

Or get Zac Efron to helicopter into Ukraine and single handedly beat Russia with the help of the plucky locals.

Just like his dad Sylvester Stallone beat the Soviet Union in the 80's.

 

[Zinger]

As someone who lives in a country that neighbours Russia, and which they really would love to blow up, if given a justifiable reason, I'd really appreciate if the USA stayed out of this.

 

[King Joffery]

Yes, America's appetite for war is gone, that's why Putin invaded.
Biden should have at least not ruled out the option last month even if he had no intention of committing troops but he stupidly revealed his hand to the enemy.

 

[bobgeese]

im not emotional!!!.

Nice try Reptilian. You'll never get our planet.

Im sure Joe Biden will win the day. then he will be 1-3 at best.

a star trek fan, i got your joke

 

[Danger Dave]

adding to someones post does not make it true.

 

[Danger Dave]

Most of the sanctions are hurting regular Russian citizens who no longer have internet, facebook, cell phones, etc.

But hey lets punish a entire country because of 1 man.

I didnt think that was who we are...
