By this logic, FIFA should've banned both US teams from its World Cups on grounds of recent U.S. interventions in other countries. The Iraq War of 2003 was horrifying in its violence and costs to infrastructure and to human life.

Breaking: Russian military is now bombing/shelling civilian apartment buildings in Kharkiv.

Officials on the ground are scrambling to assess the loss of civilian life.

It's now over for Putin, there's no coming back from this. He's a war criminal.

Zelenskyy asks for immediate NATO membership, which is Ukraine asking for the U.S. to enter the fight.

It is very easy to see the combined effort of U.S. govt, State Dept, Media, GOP/Dems, globalists, WEF, Soros crew, all collectively pushing us into a war while the peanut gallery cheers.

You want US in a war with Russia? Might just happen soon.

Well, let's look at what Ron Aledo has been saying from LinkedIn;

"With just a few words Biden can prevent the war in Ukraine and save the lives of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers. With just seven words Biden can prevent the violence and the bloodshed ¨Ukraine will never be a NATO member¨, that is it, as simple as that.
Russia's National Defense Strategy needs Ukraine as neutral terrain, as a Non-NATO country, with no NATO armies station there, in order to keep that needed buffer, it needs Ukraine out of NATO as a security red line., having Ukraine as member of NATO means an existential threat to Russia, it means that Ukraine can put in mortal danger the key Navy base of Sebastopol in Crimea; furthermore it can put at risk the whole of Crimea, now Russian territory since 2014."

It's perhaps... perhaps not a matter of Putin being a crazy madman. He honestly sees parts of Ukraine as where Russia was formed.

Historically, Russia has been attacked by Napoleon, during WWI, during WWII. So to let the Black Sea not become the NATO Sea.

Military strategy. This is another possibility. Pretty simple, and to put yourself in PUTin's shoes... something to consider.

The action done in Crimea in 2014 happened and the world has to live with that. That tiny piece of land needs to be seriously considered before any Country/government/region decides to mess with it.

Now we're talkin. This was something I brought up yesterday.

Since idiot Putin decided to open his piehole up about "Nuclear Readiness" and since there's been talk of chemical use, forget NATO. Go to the UE and or UN for support at this point.

If we were prepared to fight for Ukraine we would be fighting already. NATO membership is just a formality.

Of course I’m not sure what happens if we give NATO membership to a country already at war.

Kiev is being carpet bombed now. Looks like an escalation to bring this to an end.

The only way they will take these cities is to flatten them to rubble, and I don’t see Putin backing down, instead he will double down unfortunately.
