They would just be defending Ukraine, not attacking Russia.

Defending Ukraine=Attacking those forces that is attacking Ukraine aka Russians. Putin will not see the difference, to him it's same thing.

russia has less of a centralized control than we do, AND, there is no button. I know everyone in russia is saluting and smiling, but Id be willing to bet, given the situation we DO have (the people are in the dark, the command and control not so much) they refuse to launch.

Instead of Poland saying no like they did the other day...so the U.S has declined the current Polish offer for MIG29s sort of speak...at least for now due to logistics, but still in discussions. If the MIG29s were flying out of Poland instead of Ramstein US base in Germany then that seems more acceptable. Come on guys!

It would be more acceptable as Ukrainians pilot would take command directly from there and fly combat mission.

Ukranian pilots would fly regardless...the problem seems where they are taking off. U.S doesn't really want them taking off at Ramstein, but from Poland to make it seem like U.S isn't pushing it directly...just b.s...at this point, stop worrying about what Putin thinks...he is always going to say something to try and push everyone back...just like saying economic sanctions were a declaration of war....enough of his bluffs.

“Update to limits to growth: Comparing the World3 model with empirical data
Gaya Herrington
First published: 03 November 2020

Citations: 5

I conducted a data update to Limits to Growth (LtG), best known from the 1972 bestseller that forecasted a scenario of global societal collapse occurring around the present time if humanity did not alter its priorities.



The scenario that depicts the smallest declines, SW, is also the one that aligned least closely with observed data. Furthermore, one of the closest aligning scenarios, BAU2, shows a collapse pattern. The other scenario however, CT, shows only a moderate decline. At this point therefore, results indicate a slowdown and eventual halt in growth within the next decade or so but leave open whether the subsequent decline will constitute a collapse. Global society does not have to settle for CT as a best-case scenario, however. Although SW tracks least closely, a deliberate trajectory change brought about by society turning towards another goal than growth is still possible. That window of opportunity is closing fast.”

Did you catch that date? Probably not. Did you read the link? You probably should.

What items are on the long list of things that occurred in 1971-1972?

Angela Davis goes to trial where the father of Critical Race Theory forms an all black team to defend her.
Gloria Steinem the CIA change agent who became buddies with Davis and Derrick Bell and who Kissinger was fond of starts Ms. magazine.
World Economic Forum is created.
Nixon meets with Mao and tells him he knows how his revolutions was different.
Nixon abolished Bretton Woods.
Limits to Growth book is published for the Club of Rome’s Predicament of Mankind Project.

The Metaverse should make a lot more sense as to its purpose and timing to you all.

You all don’t seem to really be paying all that much attention.

Black Lives Matter, this is what we've been waiting for," Davis said to Steinem.

0ur leaders in Congress need to seriously encourage Ukraine-Russia to work this out diplomatically, it's not our fight and yet each day we seem to get closer and closer to entering this conflict. I wish the U.S. would stay out of it.

I worry if we send those fighter jets over from Poland, things could get much worse for us here in the states.
