If they attack a NATO country, we should meet them, everywhere they are.

One of the two things that are worse than going to war, is having the war come to you.
If we are attacked, we should take the war to them.

Even if Russia uses a low yield tactical nuclear weapon, it would provoke a military strike from NATO. More than likely, NATO would conduct air strikes on Russian positions inside Ukraine.

To those chicken idiots believing they are hawks that voted to nuke Russia.
Do you realize that Russia will nuke back and both countries will disappear from the Earth?
Moreover, there will be no life on this planet at all?

Not sure why you would say something so absolutely wrong as this. They had everything to do with 9/11. Who do you think was providing safe harbor to Al Q'ada, at that time? It sure wasn't Saudi Arabia, where (and still are) they were killing them, every time they found them. (Including one they dismembered at an embassy.)

This is somewhere between woke and clueless. North Korea is pretty self explanatory (if you have the slightest of knowledge of international trade, among the axis of evil), and I have discussed the reasons for the war in Ukraine recently, so I won't bother repeating myself.

Well, at least you got one thing right.

OK. The 6 months.
This is what I thought you meant, when you said 6 months.
My mistake.

Yes. Initial estimates were, it would take 6 months or so for the Taliban to reestablish de-facto rule.

When the first state capital fell, it was obvious we were wrong, and we should have reversed course, right then. Continuing with the withdraw was seriously stupid, after that point, as it could only result in disaster, but a weak, and frankly, uncaring Administration and a Deep State that is absolutely working against American interests, insured the disaster would happen.
I said it because the Taliban had nothing to do with 9/11 and nobody denies this. They didnt participate in the planning or carrying out the attack. There may have been some people involved living within Afghanistan but that doesnt justify killing so many people and taking down the government.

You dont disagree that North Korea hasnt attacked anyone. You havent really given any details about what they have done that would make them a legitimate target to attack. You pretend it is because you dont want to bother but the reality is because you can not make the case. I never asked you to give the reasons for the Ukraine war so you dont have to tell me that you wont bother.

What I said was that within 6 months of the US invasion of the sovereign nation of Afghanistan in for no legitimate reason in 2001, that the US knew that when they left the Taliban would retake control whenever the US left. However, I believe it is more likely that they knew this even before the invasion. There never was a real plan to replace the Taliban without the presence of the US.

The history of NATO says otherwise.

I don't have the months it would take to educate you on the world of war games, so I won't bother with you any further, other than if I run across a resource that you could get an education from, I may post it.

Oh, wait, you think you are educated.
I don't have the years it would take to educate you...

It is a good thing that I never asked you to educate me.

Nobody really needs to read your Americanist revisionism of reality. Many people in the general public no long simply accept Americanist propaganda.

Coming from you, that means Carlson is a straight up, righteous American Patriot.

But I think you overestimate him.
I think he is just a little unsettled on his foundations.
