WW3

shailynn
They never tell you what you need to know.
When I got home from work today my better half asked me “is this the start of World War 3?” I was like “damn I don’t know, maybe?”

My thought was if Russia mows down the Ukraine, who’s to say China doesn’t go grab Taiwan next? Some people think war is good for economies, but I think that only has a chance of working if you’re on the winning side.

No matter what your opinion on the matter is, the world is going to look really different within the next 10 years. Makes me think the only thing I noticed different in the past 20 years is I don’t use CDs anymore to listen to my music and kids are so lazy they have Taco Bell delivered to them by guys like Cashman who probably eat some of the tortilla chips out of the bag while on the way.

Biden (less so) and Putin (more so) need nationalist sentiment to distract from their fuckups. War and actual commitment would make it real though, and require commitment.

That said, Biden's state department is mean-tweeting Putin but talking tough (https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articl… ), and about to get rolled.

If the Ukraine thing turned into a major armed conflict, it would not benefit our economy overall. There are particular business sectors that would do well, but it would be broadly damaging. Much more so than WWII, world economies now are too interdependent and intertwined to not damage all of the economies involved.

Ukraine right now is a national security version of "playing chicken". Who flinches and how they flinch will drive whether or not this becomes a massive conflict.

^ Iran has had economic sanctions for decades and their leaders are still fat and happy.

Russia has recognized two separatist regions (that they have stirred dissent in for years) and is massing troops for an invasion. They're developing the pretext right now.

Call.Me.Ishmael

It will depend on whether or not Putin feels that Donetsk and Luhansk are an ample buffer and a "good enough" end result. Those two regions are separatist controlled already. If Putin sticks to just those two areas and de-escalates, then there will be saber rattling and moderate sanctions, but in a couple of years everyone (including Ukraine) will settle into this new map.

If Putin keeps pushing further west, then he will have far greater complications with the international community as well as the Ukrainians themselves. Western Ukraine is far more independent and Europe-leaning. Setting aside the strong possibility of nation-state-level conflict, taking Ukraine in its entirety creates the strong possibility of a long-term insurgency, which has never gone well for the Russians.

But, it comes down to Putin being happy enough with Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk, which is anyone's guess. When Putin took Crimea, it was a relatively popular move with the Russian people and the power structures surrounding Putin (oligarchs, military leadership, etc.). The moves into Donetsk and Luhansk are reported to be far, far less popular with both the Russian people and power structures. So, Putin is out on skinnier branches this time around.

The Ukraine is an economic basket case, so Putin doesn't have a lot to gain by taking over the whole country. He mainly just wants the parts where a lot of Russian speakers live. We could make a deal where we let him have the Russian parts of the country in exchange for him sending a lot of cute Russian strippers to the U.S. My Indiana Congressional representative is the only Ukrainian American in Congress and is quite hostile to Russia, so I don't think I'll suggest that to her.

We'll see. The Russian economy is held together with spit and coat hangers and, though Putin is an authoritarian/dictator, he relies on a complex support structure to retain power. If sabers rattle (or certain phones ring) within Russia, a de-escalation will become far more likely.

I don’t care what you “think”, I do care about the facts. The facts are that more of the governed land in the world has moved over to democracy over the last 20 years than it has gone over to communist dictators, and that totally favors capitalism going forward.

Yiu can get all hung up on the current political war fare we are experiencing, but another factor is that the economy of Texas is as large as all of Russia, so go ahead and be afraid of WW3 if you want to, but the fact is more people are living under democracy today than they did 20 years ago. I see that inertia/momentum not turning around the other direction over the next 20 years. So go ahead and be afraid, but one thing is for sure, never bet against America because of you do you would have lost that bet every time over the past 259 years!

If Russia stops with just taking part, or even all, of Ukraine I doubt Biden will have the guts to send US troops into combat. He will likely just use sanctions and other diplomatic efforts and try to spin those as an effective counter move to Russia's aggression. Where WWIII would come in is if Putin gets so emboldened by his success in Ukraine that he makes a move towards Poland. At that point the US and NATO are bound by treaty to join in the war.

Having former President Trump praising Putin like he did yesterday is going to make Putin feel even better about his chances. “Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine — Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful. ‘I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. ... We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy.” With the former POTUS praising him and the current POTUS too weak to do anything beyond sanctions why would Putin think the US is going to do anything to stop him.

If China feels that the US isn't going to get in the way of Russia over the Ukraine they will probably believe it would be the same if they move to retake Taiwan completely as a part of China. Not sure how the US would handle that since we aren't strictly obligated to come to Taiwan's defense but we have a long standing history of supporting Taiwan's independence. I know that any strong economic/trade sanctions against China would likely have very severe consequences to the US economy due to our level of trade with China and would make the recent rise in prices seem mild in comparison.

The US wants Europe to not be dependent on Russian natural gas so Biden thinks sanctions will force Europe to buy it from yhe US instead. That's why the US is so invested in this.

It's beyond comical watching an American president lecture anyone about not invading a country. Biden should stop bombing starving kids in Yemen and use that war chest to feed American kids.

The fact that Putin officially launched a full scale military in the past hour shows that Biden's and the EU's sanctions are going to do a damned think to stop Putin. However from how I interpret Biden's statement about it he seems to just be planning more statements instead of using the US military to stop it.
"The prayers of the entire world are with the people of Ukraine tonight as they suffer an unprovoked and unjustified attack by Russian military forces," President Biden said.

Biden contnued:

"President Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering. Russia alone is responsible for the death and destruction this attack will bring, and the United States and its Allies and partners will respond in a united and decisive way. The world will hold Russia accountable.

"I will be monitoring the situation from the White House this evening and will continue to get regular updates from my national security team. Tomorrow, I will meet with my G7 counterparts in the morning and then speak to the American people to announce the further consequences the United States and our Allies and partners will impose on Russia for this needless act of aggression against Ukraine and global peace and security. We will also coordinate with our NATO Allies to ensure a strong, united response that deters any aggression against the Alliance. Tonight, Jill and I are praying for the brave and proud people of Ukraine."

The only mention of using military force mentioned in that statement is to prevent aggression against the NATO Alliance. In other words, Ukraine is on their own to fight Russia with the US just selling them some weapons and cutting off some of Russia's income.

As futile as it may be, Ukrainians have to fight back if they want to show the world they desire to live free.

Regardless of how this ends or what happens next, every western country and the UN need to completely quarantine Russia. China, Venezuela, Cuba and others will still trade with Russia, of course.

The leftie/woke morons currently leading the US make decisions based entirely on ideology, without any regard for the practicality or unintended consequences of their actions. (Killing the Keystone pipeline, for example.)

But Putin is no dummy. You can be sure that whatever "sanctions" may be slapped on him, they're already baked into his decision to invade. His ever-increasing cozy relationship with China is most likely a big part of it.

Plus as an iron-hand dictator, he's got the advantage of being able to inflict a degree of economic suffering on his own people with relatively mild political consequences.

30 years later, we may have all forgotten... They sure as fuck didn't.

I've met a few Ukrainian people over the years. They are proud of that. Ukrainian. After 30 years, I don't think they are giving that up. They might not have the firepower of the Russian army, but neither did Afganistan.

Russians, on the other hand, have now had 30 years of BMWs and holidays on the beaches of Thailand. Iphones. If sections are enforced, not more of that until Putin's gone.

As I know it was Robert McNamara who came up with the concept of quarantine. At the Pentagon they had been brain storming situations.

And then they talked with American Leftists and tried to find out what the final trip wire was for the Soviet Union. What line must never be crossed. And it was the boarding and inspection of their ships, especially the submarines.

William Mandel
https://www.amazon.com/Saying-No-Power-A…

And then in the 13 Days film, they forced a sub to surface and told the crew to standby for boarding and inspection. But others said that the sub would only be inspected over the crew's dead bodies, and that they would be executed for allowing it as soon as they got back to Russia. So I suppose that if there was no other way, they were expected to scuttle it.

Ukraine has a population of 40 million. So especially if they are totally outside supplied, they could field an army much larger than what Russia now has.

From memory, during the World Wars, and including reservists, Germany fielded 8 million men in uniform, from a population of maybe 33 million.

Ukraine is the "Bread Basket of the World". But if they are offline for some years, the US can supply them. And Poland is just as much of a bread basket. And Germany can produce more food than it needs too.

Shoulder launched missiles and take out Russian tanks, airplanes, and helicopters.

They look to have reactive armor on their tanks, but that just means it will take two Javelin Missiles, or even most anything else fired first.

Putin cannot withstand the financial lockout and body bags coming home.

I learned what a fossil he was when the Pussy Riot girls were protesting and said that they "hope he will become a feminist."

And this is absolutely America's essential business. The exiting world order would be destroyed, and the UN with it, if Putin were to go unchecked.

Mark said "President Joe Biden has returned to his Delaware home for the weekend because, apparently, there is nothing urgent going on that needs his attention."

I remember when liberals would hand-wring and protest over President Trump spending so much time at Mar-a-Lago when there were so many important things going on. The response from his supporters was typically "It's the modern age. He can do his job from anywhere!" It's amazing how conservatives forget that it's the modern age when it comes to a President (or any politician) they don't like. But, to be fair, liberals vacillate from defense to condemnation as easily and illogically.

For what it's worth, I agree with the base argument. It is the modern age and a President can fulfill their duties from almost anywhere. Especially from second residences that are usually outfitted with additional required communications and security infrastructure. But all that infrastructure doesn't make that President a better President.

Trump managed to be a shitty President from Mar-a-Lago just as easily as Biden can be a shitty President from Delaware.

Right. And when Trump was President, the protests were "He's at Mar-a-Lago all the time!" And then there were all the complaints about Trump's White House calendar being filled with ambiguous swaths of "Executive Time".

According to Obama's defense secretary Robert Gates, Biden has "been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades." Obama himself said to never underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up.

Yet in his campaign, Biden said he and only he could handle Putin. Lulz.

You suddenly decided to stop addressing the point I made.

I can build a list of bullet points about how Trump was a shitty President as easily as you can build a list supporting him. And we can go back and forth interpreting, misinterpreting, and reinterpreting all of them for 10 to 40 posts complete with links. We've seen that done here, what?, dozens or perhaps hundreds of times? And yet no one has a partisan epiphany.

What I responded to was an assertion that a President cannot do their job effectively unless they're in the White House, which (for many people) seems to be true or false depending on whether or not they like the person in the White House. My assertion is that it a false assertion regardless of whether or not you like the person in the White House.

I actually don’t think you can. The last year has been true disaster after disaster. Whatever list you create about Trump will be trivial compared to what Biden has done.

“You suddenly decided to stop addressing the point I made.“

I responded directly. Trump spent some time in Florida and New Jersey and, you are right that he was able to do his job. Biden spends about 30% of his time in Delaware and there is no indication he does any work while there. In fact, nobody seems to have any idea what he does in Delaware.

They are calling for a "no fly zone over Ukraine". That gets into the same sort of stuff as quarantines and blockades. Not sure who is calling for this and who would enforce it, probably NATO. This is beyond NATO's treaties, but I think it is necessary, as well as locking Russia out of swift.

To me, this is still a case of agreeing or not agreeing with something based solely on liking or not liking the person in office. Trump spent a lot of time away from the White House, and his work schedule had very little clarity at least in part due to all of the undefined "Executive Time".

So, again, I don't see a big difference in behaviors. But I also don't see either as being good Presidents.

Bush The Dad promised Gorby that, except for East Germany, no former Warsaw Pact country would (ever) become part of NATO. But now NATO will only promise that Ukraine won't become a NATO member "for now". After the US invaded Iraq based on bullshit, you can't expect Russia to just trust that the same thing wouldn't happen to them. It's fucked up what Putin is doing to innocent, apolitical Ukrainians. But Ukraine staying out of NATO seems like a reasonable concession. Finland's not in NATO, but it's in the EU, and Russia doesn't seem to panty bunch about that.

@ilbbaicnl "But Ukraine staying out of NATO seems like a reasonable concession."

I think you're missing the big picture here. Putin wants Ukraine and clearly he's willing to do anything to get it. Period.

All that noise about Ukraine not joining NATO is just his way of distracting, or somehow justifying his actions. Like how he "recognized" those two eastern territories and then sent in "peacekeeping" forces. The man is a master of disinformation and deception.

If he says he wants a guarantee Ukraine will never join NATO, it means he doesn't give two shits about it.

He floated that story several days before he began the invasion. While the whole world and every media outlet was wasting their time debating over it, he was amassing more and more troops. He was going in with a full-scale invasion regardless.

China sees Biden as weak and indecisive. All hat, no cattle. Did they like or respect Trump? Hell, no, but they feared him. No, not due to intellect, due to erratic emotional behavior. According to the NY Post on 2/22/2022, Trump told XI that an attack on Taiwan would be met by an attack on Bejing. XI was reportedly stunned and wasn't sure he was joking or serious, but they sure as hell behaved differently than they are now. No one tough fears a progressive.

Ukraine and Russia were both part of the Soviet Union 30 years ago.

In some ways, it's kinda like North and South Dakota going to war.... The People of Ukraine and People in Russia, mostly, aren't that interested in killing each other....

But, Ukraine's free. And determined to stay that way.

Russia's military is listed with 900,000 active personnel. About 50% of those ARE CONSCRIPTS.

Ukraine's military is listed with 200,000 active personnel. While Russia has to protect a border with Georgia, Finland, and Kazakhstan.... Ukraine has that entirety of it's personnel within it's borders fighting Russian army.

Ukraine has advertised handing out 18,000 rifles to civilians in Kiev. The former PM is show on the streets carrying a rifle and body armour.

Russia's military has just become proper fucked. They just don't seem to realize it yet. They aren't going to be able to take Kiev. They can maybe just level it, but I have a hard time believing even the Russian army (50% conscripts) really wants to be involved in that... This is the army called to put down protests in the streets during the coup against Gorbachev, they refuse to fire a shot. 40% of Ukrainians speak Russian...

And the flow of arms to Ukraine is only going to increase. Russians, don't really have much of an economy to start replacing arms any more...

Sooner or later, the number of families who's conscripted kids stop calling home are going to be a problem for Putin, he can only silence the news of casualties so long...

Thinking this is about Trump and Biden is really pretty fucking stupid and ridiculous. I mean, really?

And Xi would be smart to take notice of what Ukrainians are willing to do to be free. I can't imagine Taiwanese would do any less, in fact, they have been preparing for such for decades...

An interesting, and surprising, Twitter post from a member of the European Parliament. Bottom line, Russia only has the resources for a few more days of fighting. They are low on missiles and money.

THREAD 1/7 Intel from a Ukrainian officer about a meeting in Putin’s lair in Urals. Oligarchs convened there so no one would flee. Putin is furious, he thought that the whole war would be easy and everything would be done in 1-4 days.

Russians didn’t have a tactical plan. The war costs about $20 bln/day. There are rockets for 3-4 days at most, they use them sparingly. They lack weapons, the Tula and 2 Rotenberg plants can’t physically fulfil the orders for weapons. Rifles and ammo are the most they can do.

The next Russian weapons can be produced in 3-4 months – if even that. They have no raw materials. What was previously supplied mainly from Slovenia, Finland and Germany is now cut off.

If Ukraine manages to hold the Russians off for 10 days, then the Russians will have to enter negotiations. Because they have no money, weapons, or resources. Nevertheless, they are indifferent about the sanctions.

Alpha Spec Ops have been near Kyiv since the 18th February. The goal was to take Kyiv and instal a puppet regime. They are preparing provocations against innocent civilians – women and children – to sow panic. This is their trump card.

Russia’s whole plan relies on panic – that the civilians and armed forces surrender and Zelensky flees. They expect Kharkiv to surrender first so the other cities would follow suit to avoid bloodshed. The Russians are in shock of the fierce resistance they have encountered.

You know how a complete idiot can come across as smart if they just keep their mouth shut and keep people guessing? Putin should have stuck with the mythos of Russian might, cause reality is a whole other thing. Putin's yes men have been feeding him lies while they embezzle funds. The officers that report to the yes men are selling weapons. The grunts that report to them are selling diesel fuel for alcohol. All of them telling their superiors everything is A-ok all the way up the chain. None of their shit works. Their "badass" top of the line tanks re being abandoned en masse. Their god damn combat helicopters have civilian-grade Garmin GPS units cause the stuff built in is obsolete. Putin expected the war to be over in 15 days...tick tock motherfucker.

The rank and file Russian soldier was not ready for this war. For God sake many of the families have relatives in Ukraine. An army with low morale presents a terrible liability no matter what quality equipment they possess. From reports the common soldier in the Russian ranks is either extremely distressed or at the most very unmotivated. The elite units are the only ones that are worth anything in this conflict and they have been beaten in several key engagements.

The Ukrainians are fired up and unified. They deserve everything we can give them.

Just read an article about how the Russian military maintains its trucks, especially the tires. Short answer is they don’t. Tires are crumbling in trucks and they don’t have replacement tires available. Their supply lines are failing as a result. Food and fuel isn’t making its way to the troops.

Russia and Ukraine are hosting negotiations in a place called "Hunter's House". Russian sense of humor and poking fun or coincidence?

Got me thinking if the Ukrainians brought some strippers with them this conflict might be over post haste.

There is no such thing as the Minke Accords. But the demented old fogey, 25IQ, has been running around for a week telling everything "what about the Minke Accords? The US has to defend Ukraine by the Minke Accords." There is no such thing. By his idiocy and senility, he made it up. He is so deeply lost in dementia, he never even thought to check himself.

Furthermore, the Minsk Agreement, which is real and does exist, does not involve the US. It is a purely European protocol.

Always right, all along.

Maybe Russia is starting to lighten up in some places. But this is only because of how hard the Ukrainians have fought, and because of Biden's intense sanctions and leadership.

There is going to be a huge defense spending increase in America and Europe. And there is going to be a huge arms build up.

Putin is not rational, he is suicidal. Trump was suicidal. Despots always are.
