    If they are used....that is true. The only nation to use a nuclear weapon in war is the USA.

    Some folks don't mind turning Ukraine into Syria. Many of these folks might want to think that these are actually white Euros who look like their peeps here in the USA.

    Incredibly helpful. I'll be sure to pass this on to the civilians in Kyiv huddling in the subways to avoid being bombed.

    Do you know the history of Ukraine? Russia has literally starved them to death before. Ethnic Ukrainians will not fold easily.

    Yeah, supposedly one of the old robber barons in US history said: " I am not afraid of the working class; I can always hire one half to kill the other half"

    Lol yeah the end of Obama's era was super high.

    Gas prices were freaking sensation during Scott Morrison's run... dude is freaking legend!

    Covid and lack of need for gas wasn't really a real reason for low prices lol

    That is good to know, we have to find a way to help them - and make this terrible for Russia to be there.....maybe use this to break Putin's hold on Russia.

    Keep in mind that Glynch's perspective is that they just shouldn't fight and instead should let Russia have them.

    Fighting to defend your home is stupid nationalism and is you being exploited by the industrialists. Let Russia do whatever they want and it works out better and more peacefully for everyone.

    not sure I'm hearing this right, but it doesn't sound like the U.S. is planning to stop buying oil and gas from Russia anytime soon.

    Oh, I know, but if they are in a fight, now it is a matter of life and death, you need to fight for that life, or die like a lamb at a slaughter.

    Enough with the nonsense that this is about "missiles on his border!" Putin sees this as his opportunity to defang Nato.
