David Stockman on The Ukrainian Border War Folly

[International Man] Someone should tell the European ruling elites to take a long jump off a short pier. Their endless whining about the Ruuskies and Putin is just plain pathetic because—

It’s not justified—Russia bears no hallmarks of an expansionist imperial power.

The Russia-Ukraine conflict is none of western Europe’s business—since its essentially a territorial and civil war within the borders of historic Russia.

If EU officialdom is really concerned about the purported Russian threat why do they spend just a pittance of their GDP on defense?

#5 ^ I would love to hear Trump ask that question in his debate with Biden. Most likely Biden will have an answer for it but also most likely it will either be a lie or it will ignore pertinent facts. He said the laptop was Russian disinformation in the 2016 debate and got away with that lie. You can bet the moderator and MSM will not call him on it this time either and that will be how Biden squeaks through the debate, unless he stumbles so badly that even the moderator and MSM can't hide it.
