I’m still having a hard time processing that these people seem to be literally preparing for a war with Russia. RT: NATO members will order more fleets and fighter planes into Eastern Europe amid a worsening standoff with Russia, with the bloc citing reports that Moscow is building up troops on its side of the Ukrainian border. In a statement issued on Monday, the US-led military faction’s Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that he welcomed the commitment of “additional forces to NATO,” vowing that he will “continue to take all necessary measures to protect and defend all Allies, including by reinforcing the eastern part of the” bloc. According to his comments, a handful of member states have made announcements that they will step up their current or upcoming deployments, including Denmark, which is sending a frigate to the Baltic Sea and four fighter jets to Lithuania “in support of NATO’s long-standing air-policing mission in the region.” Spain and France are focusing on southeastern Europe, with Madrid reportedly contemplating dispatching ships to “join NATO naval forces and is considering sending fighter jets to Bulgaria.” Meanwhile, Paris “has expressed its readiness to send troops to Romania under NATO command.” At the same time, Washington “has also made clear that it is considering increasing its military presence in the eastern part of the Alliance,” the statement said. The move aims to reinforce allied deterrence and defense as Russia allegedly “continues its military build-up” near Ukraine. I don’t think there is a serious belief or argument to be made that Putin is going to back down. So the only reason you would be doing this is if you were preparing for an actual war. Clearly, they want to isolate the war inside of the Ukraine. I think Russia’s best bet is to not allow them to do that. Russia’s best bet is just to start immediately nuking major European cities and hope the US surrenders. If not, and it turns into a global nuclear war – well, that would be perfect for me. I’m very much in support of all urban people dying. I’ve yet to hear a valid argument as to why that would not be good. Strange days! Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
