    The rational part of my mind says there is no way there could be a direct war between the USA & another great power with nuclear weapons. But another part of my mind is aware that rational calculations don't always prevail.https://twitter.com/ChristopherJM/status/1468316729554128900 …

    A key message from Sullivan about what the US is ready to do should Russia further invade Ukraine was this: "Things we did not do in 2014, we are prepared to do now."

        How many troops could the U.S. quickly insert into the country for "training exercises" with Ukraine's military?

        Side note: I wonder how many right winger will side with Russia in that situation? especially if Putin turns up the "defender of Christianity" schtick he's been flirting with

        If I would dare a guess, they’d weaponize the Panama Papers and go after Putin’s and his buddies monies like never before.

        US has been threatening Russia, China and Iran in recent days. Which it seems to me mean they are not overly concerned about a real confrontation.

        Do we know of any time a modern democracy ever went to war with another modern democracy? Or is it only when one or more sides are dictatorships do we get a war?

        Recall nobody thought the Great War would happen. The British King and the German Kaiser were both relatives and friends. There were too many business ties between the two countries, etc. All the experts of the day thought the saber-rattling would come to nothing.

        America should have no interest in being global cops until American democracy and universal healthcare can be fought and won against Republican insurgents
