how is continuation of economic support for Ukraine going to start WWIII?

We've made it clear that our foreign policy excludes US boots on the ground...sustaining US economic support for a sovereign democratic nation actively fighting a Russian invasion will eventually bleed Russia's aggression dry...

The Ukrainian people will fight Russia to their deaths...and without help, they will fail. Where do we draw the line against Russia's overt determination to expand its empire?

it may not be insane to want security assurances in a ceasefire agreement, unless one believes the aggressor is trustworthy.

I suppose that can differ from from case to case, country to country...

I, for one, don't have any reason to trust Putin.

You make a strong case for a rapid military buildup so we can fight a global war against Russia and China.

We don't need to put boots on the ground or fight a global war. By supporting Ukraine with resources, including weapons, we can bleed Russian resources and military strength and deter future similar threats. Judging by Russia's need to hire Wagner mercenaries and to empty its prisons to send criminals and also older male citizens to fight in Ukraine, this strategy appears to be working.

Russia does not have the resources to have any strategic military advantage over the US.

Come on now, are you worried about Ukraine or is it the fact that Trump is involved?

Be honest, come one now... seriously.

The Ukraine population is not going to win a war of attrition with Russia, period.

So do you honestly believe Ukraine can defeat Russia, without sending in NATO/US troops and starting WWIII?

howcome it was no big deal when Kanye showed up in the White House wearing a dark long sleeve shirt, without a suit and tie? They fawned all over him as if they were glad someone like him thought it'd be cool to stop and say hello...no outrage about his choice of dress from the fashionista on the right...
