What's really important is do YOU believe Biden. I already knew the story was largely BS.

Do you get the point?

I trust Biden, but he's not perfect. That's what separates me from Trump's worshipers who deify a serial adulterer and swindler with gross Narcissistic Personality Disorder, or from those who reject all other politicians for imperfections great or small, while expecting there to be a perfect human candidate out there.

Nah, you're no different from Trump supporters. You're an apologist all day long for the crimes of Democrats. You are part of the problem, not the solution. The problem is partisan politics and how it blinds normally intelligent people to the bigger picture.

2021:

Quote:

A flurry of media reports last week warned that Russian military forces were massing near the border of Ukraine with the apparent intention of invading. The U.S. intelligence community estimates 70,000 troops are deployed at four locations, with Ukrainian sources estimating higher numbers.

Ukraine thus becomes the latest focus of Vladimir Putin’s campaign to exert pressure on Russia’s neighbors. Putin’s main objective seems to be dissuading Kyiv from joining NATO, a move that could position Western forces close to the Russian heartland.

There is little doubt that Russia’s vastly superior forces are capable of overrunning Ukraine, particularly the region east of the Dnieper river where many ethnic Russian live (see map). Moscow has been aiding a rebellion of ethnic Russians in the east against the central government since 2014, when it seized the Crimean Peninsula—the other area where ethnic Russians predominate.

However, Moscow’s military moves to date seem more calculated to influence the behavior of the Ukrainian government than actually occupy the country. Here are five reasons an invasion isn’t likely.

2022:

Quote:

Russia has told the United States at tense talks that it had no plans to invade Ukraine, as the two sides agreed to more efforts to keep tensions from turning into a full-blown confrontation.

After more than seven hours of negotiations in Geneva, the Russian and US negotiators on Monday both offered to keep talking, though there was no sign of a major breakthrough.

The high-stakes negotiations came amid fears of a Russian invasion of its pro-Western neighbour Ukraine, and with Moscow demanding wide-ranging concessions from Washington and its NATO allies.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said he had assured his US counterpart, Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman, that those fears were unfounded.

"We explained to our colleagues that we have no plans, no intentions to 'attack' Ukraine... There is no reason to fear any escalation in this regard," he told reporters after the talks.

Uh huh. And those Russian troops poised at the Ukrainian border are just a figment of our collective imagination.

Even if Russia invades Ukraine, the US and Europe will do nothing to stop it, like every time:
- In 2000: Bush warned Putin not to stand against Chechnya' separation. Result: Russia invaded Chechnya and prevented its separation.
- In 2008: Bush warned Putin not to attack Georgia. Result: Russia invaded Georgia.
- In 2014: Obama warned Putin not to attack Ukraine. Result: Russia invaded Crimea and annexed it.
- In 2015: Obama warned Putin not to support Assad in Syria. Result: Russia entered Syria and saved Assad's ass and supported his massacres.
- In 2018: Trump demanded Putin to exit Syria. Result: Putin established a second base in Syria.
- And now: Biden warning Putin not to invade Ukraine. Result:??

The smart thing to do for Ukraine now is to abandon its plan to join the NATO, hence avoiding the war altogether, and not to rely on the US/West, not even the NATO members, to defend it, in the last 2 decades they proved to be just talk.

I think 99.999 percent of members here already know that.

Now we get to see how good "US intelligence" is:

Quote:

RUSSIA is set to invade Ukraine at 1am tomorrow with a massive missile blitz and 200,000 troops, according to US intelligence.

Highly placed sources said preparations to defend the besieged nation would continue - despite reports Putin was withdrawing some troops from the border.

US intelligence said the most likely time for Putin’s order was 3am (1am UK time).

American spooks believe Kyiv’s military and government command and control centres still have a barrage of air strikes before tanks roll over the border.

Nearly 5 hours since the expected commencement of the invasion...

There must be very good security to have prevented any news about what is occurring over there leaking to the media.

Just when did the ex-Mr. Katy Perry become an expert on international affairs, or anything for that matter?
