Great article really. It goes into better depth regarding what I have been saying for months. I would go further to say that the western model of warfare, towing cannons around and using tanks along with other artillery is outdated. Weapons innovation, as well as real military buildup is needed. Spending all of this money on Ukraine and Israel is not in the long term interests of the US or Europe.It will take years for Russia to recover now. The threat of a major land war in Europe after Ukraine has been pushed down the road quite a bit. Let the middle east wipe each other out. Israel is more of a threat to use nukes than Russia is. This all said, I dont think anyone is dumb enough to attack the US on its own soil unless its and end of the world scenario.
Finishing what they started? The US is not obligated to help Ukraine at all. It is not obligated to do anything, and has done more than any other nation. Ukraine asks and asks. I will always help my neighbor with food and anything else within reason, until it effects my home, and once that happens, the help ends. That is just rational thinking. To give something to a neighbor that my family would need would just be stupid. Not to mention, in the case of Ukraine, they are not a neighbor to the US. Poland has done a lot of heavy lifting for Ukraine along with the US.
Now you have Z inviting Trump to visit Ukraine to show ending the war is not easy. The Deputy PM saying that Ukraine doesnt want a "sympathy vote" on joining the EU. How about the US saying to Ukraine that they need to negotiate, and building up US bases in Poland? Build bases in Latvia? Really build up and secure the NATO lines? Now thats an investment in security that protects allies that are legally bound to the US. That makes sense, and that is something American people can get behind. Ukraine needs to stop telling the west what it needs to do, because the west 'needs" to worry about itself long term. A year from now, a new President Elect will be waiting to walk into the White House, and this war will be over, or he will end it. There is an expiration date on everything.
