If you think about it, this latest Russian threat is actually a capitulation. Before, they were saying "agree to our demands or we will invade Ukraine". Now its "agree to our demands or we will put troops in Cuba or Venezuela". Which means they have backed off from invading Ukraine.

Hey, OP< would you be willing to take a rifle and go fight guerilla troops in Cuba or Venezuela? As THAT is exactly, what you will end up with - another disaster of getting beat up by local patriots, who still remember Fidel and Commandante Che.

Would you? Not with joystick on a screen. In real life jungles, where they shoot live bullets. And, everyone hates you.

Why would we even want Cuba and Venezuela? We already have Chicago and Detroit.

Great idea! Lets spread the multi-colored mat out on the floor. Seriously, not a bad idea. Russia spends its resources on fighting, not on its people. See Why Are Ordinary Russians so Impoverished If They Have the Resources to Fight Ukraine?

If Russia takes Ukraine, we will do nothing. There is no leadership in the WH who will do anything except go get an ice cream.

I'll take 'Extremely stupid ideas" for 1000 Alex.

We just wasted 20 years in Afghanistan. Not wasting the next 20 in another trap.

Russia never said that ^. In fact, after USA converted Ukraine to Nazi cesspool, nobody needs it.

Actually, Russia also didn't say "or we will put troops in Cuba or Venezuela". It's yet another lie.
