    Default Re: Ukraine conflict episode 2 Putin´s Empire strikes back

    “Now consider it: Nato keeps menacing, Russia keeps waging wars. An equal exchange?” Not factual. NATO waged more war than Russia (legitimate and not). This is a fact.

    “A question: are you sure Putin lives in the same reality as all the world around him and respects international rules, laws and treaties?” Of course not but I am sure that the world around him doesn’t either, repeatedly.

    “No flank attacks to justify the fears Russia is having.” Ask the Russians: due to History, they’ve got a point.

    “I spoke of NATO's NEIGHBORS” Nope, you didn’t as you included Kosovo in it.
    Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities. Voltaire.

    "You did, sarge", said Polly." You said you were in few last stands."
    "Yeah, lad. But I was holding the metal"

    What should be done with this situation? What is a good end result here?
    "The only way that has ever been discovered to have a lot of people cooperate together voluntarily is through the free market. And that's why it's so essential to preserving individual freedom.” -- Milton Friedman

    "The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule." -- H. L. Mencken
