This is why I said you dont understand. I think it through.

NATO or US have invaded Iraq because Iraq was doing what Russia is doing. It is not just once US or NATO have intervened in a crisis.
The nation they went to protect are not NATO countries or seeking to join NATO.

US knows iraq does not have WMD and they invaded claiming to be looking for WMD... While they know North Korea has WMD why no invasion? Why do you think I ran wants one?

Ukraine once have WMD the US and co convince them to give it up that they will protect them should something like this happen... So where is the protection ? Ukraine gave up something for protection so where is it ?

Putin will not risk entering Ukraine if he knows NATO will act as a maniac or if he knows they want blood.

Russia is the biggest nation in the world and have the best missiles and most powerful nuclear weapons. They will likely destroy or give a hard blow to NATO as NATO will do to them. At the end of everything both NATO and russia will be China's biitch except they preemptively strike china.

If us want they can stop Belarus but they have to go through russia. Putin have challenged anyone who dares to put hand in the fight.

Russia has more nukes than any nation in the world and they have the most powerful and also they have the fastest missiles which is impossible or almost impossible to intercept.

They can launch via land, sea and air. Their sub can be anywhere and launch a ballistic missile to NATO nations.

These are why NATO is avoiding conflict and also why russia is avoiding with NATO
---This Putin war is not about Ukraine wanting to join NATO---he's main goal is about bringing Ukraine under Russia rule indirectly---have a rule by proxy---just like Belarus president---Putin being a despot is afraid of democracy---and democratic elected president in Ukraine---Did the U.S. attacked Cuba in 1962 during the Cuban Missile Crisis?---

---Putin said Russia is conducting a 'peacekeeping mission' in Ukraine to protect ethnic Russians of the two regions who declared independent States last week---now within 4 days he's putting Russia nuclear deterrent force on high alert---what are his rationale behind this---*desperation* in one word---

---The longer this goes on---Putin will not win the war---Ukraine will lose much more---and world economy will be greatly affected---war is never a good solution---

"Bank of Russia increases key rate by 10.5 pp to 20%"

February 28 2022, 02:38

"Bank of Russia increases key rate by 10.5 pp to 20%
External conditions for the Russian economy have drastically changed, the regulator noted.

The board of directors of the Bank of Russia has decided to increase the key rate by 10.5 percentage points to 20% per annum starting February 28. This will support the financial and price stability and protect the savings of citizens from depreciation, the regulator said in a statement on Monday.

This is an all-time high of the key rate. The previous record of 17% was hit in December 2014.

"The Bank of Russia Board of Directors decided to increase the key rate to 20% per annum from 28 February 2022. External conditions for the Russian economy have drastically changed. The increase of the key rate will ensure a rise in deposit rates to levels needed to compensate for the increased depreciation and inflation risks. This is needed to support financial and price stability and protect the savings of citizens from depreciation," the statement said......"

SpinderSea:
The sanctions used against Russia is a time bomb for the west especially USA. They are literally falling off as the world leader as their currency is on time support(also their internal issues). Something they are trying to avoid is to force Russia and china to have a relationship of no limit which already happened this month or last month during winter Olympics. I feel Russia already saw this coming so the sanctions will likely not affect Russia as much as it would if they didn't have that relationship with china. The impact can be determined with how economically powerful china is and also Africa will have influence on the next world power which will likely be china knowing how indebted we are to them

Ex-Attorney General William Barr Urges GOP to Move On From Trump
Book recounts confrontational meeting in Oval Office and says Republicans need to focus on new leaders


Former Attorney General William Barr writes in a new book that former President Donald Trump has “shown he has neither the temperament nor persuasive powers to provide the kind of positive leadership that is needed,” and that it is time for Republicans to focus on rising new leaders in the party.

The release of the former attorney general’s 600-page book, “One Damn Thing After Another,” is coming as Mr. Trump, who remains the GOP’s dominant figure, contemplates another presidential run. Mr. Barr writes that he was convinced that Mr. Trump could have won re-election in 2020 if he had “just exercised a modicum of self-restraint, moderating even a little of his pettiness.”https://www.wsj.com/articles/ex-attorney-general-william-barr-urges-gop-to-move-on-from-trump

Ukraine-Russia War: Russian troops underfunded, equipment sub-par, according to reports
Russian troops seem to be largely untrained conscripts fulfilling mandatory service


The Russian effort to invade Ukraine appears to have been underfunded and under-equipped to handle the swift takeover that Russian President Vladimir Putin was hoping for.

Russia is "increasingly frustrated" by the lack of momentum in the invasion, particularly in the north of the country, a U.S. official said Saturday. Despite the months of planning and preparation, Russia has yet to achieve air superiority, and Ukraine retains command and control.

---In your perceived mind---only the administrations of Clinton, Obama and Biden made it possible for Putin and Russia to invade a democratically elected government of Ukraine---Putin is afraid of having thriving democracy on his border---because that's a threat to him in his own country---as he has been in power for over 2 decades---

---Also will you blame the 3 Democratic administrations when Putin invaded Georgia in August 2008?---guess who was U.S. president during this period---
