Russia also played a stupid and dangerous game... I think their interest rate is at 19%?  Sounds unsustainable...

Seems like a stretch to go from pushing Russia back to 2020 borders, to breaking Russia up without getting nuked.

IMO this will be a great deal. And: they will crush Russia into dozens of states

Do people not realize there are historical figures other than Hitler?

If Hitler were representative of other rulers, then he wouldn't be the uniquely terrible figure that he is.

Yes, it's a proxy and a credit accelerating scheme too. But to compare Putin to Hitler  is exactly what the UK needs to accelerate this war. They will be in deep trouble if Ukraine defaults

Putin is not Hitler

You lose points for the dumb comparison and reading New Yorker


Did Hitler stop at Poland?
If Russia wins then it will not stop at Ukraine.
This is a proxy war between USA and China.

If Russia loses, I doubt there would be enough wealth to extract and come out ahead. This seems more like warmongering for the sake of distracting from domestic problems.
