There seems little doubt that the west, with America as boss, is not doing enough for the Ukranians to kick the bear out.  Indeed, Biden doesnt want to.    And we all suffer economically, the west is bankrupt any way, and were all going to suffer.  EVENMORE.  Something bad is coming.

To use a Hollywood western  as an example, a cowboy is shooting up part of town, killing as needed, and the sherriff, America, does nothing, watching from across the street, even though he knows that his side of town is next.

The sherriff has destructive hardware you wouldnt believe, while the cowboy has a pea shooter. 

What would you do?

I'm curious as to why you think America should be a leader in the grand scheme of things?   I mean,  logically speaking,  America is less than 300 years old.    We are just a baby compared to any country in Europe.    Why should we take part in this scuffle?  

I don't think that America should be responsible for what Russia does,  nor do i think America should be responsible for saving the middle east.   


What has your country done?  Or are you of the mindset that only America can save the world?

America has the biggest military in the world by a long shot,...

That didn't stop the French from tucking tail and running home when Hitler marched into the Rhineland to get Germany's remilitarization underway. The brits were nowhere to be seen, either, which was disgraceful considering the provisions of the Versailles Treaty. Imagine the tens of millions of lives that would have been spared if they hadn't behaved like cretinous cowards.

Once a coward always a coward, I suppose.
Who could argue against the brits being cowards?  Theres the blitz, standing alone against the Hun, charging machine guns in ww1, rejecting europe and the wankers within, the Battle of Britain, " never has so much been owed to so few".  That includes all of the United States.   If Britain had fallen the USA would have eventually.  Imagine europe and Russia as nazis.

The USA would never have retaken europe.    And you made us pay.   Britain finally paid off our debt to you for the planes ships and tanks we bought, while saving your ass, about 1982.

We owe you nothing, not even good will.   As far as im concerned, and you as well, there is no special relationship, its everyman for himself.

The USA is not blue and anglo saxon any more, far from it, we need protection from the likes of you.  Why?, we have imported your woke cancer.

So what happened at the Rhineland, and what of Neville Chamberlain, whose moral fortitude was on par with the contents of a chamber pot?
