This is a riot, I bet you wish Scott Ritter was the least of your worries. This blubbering man who still worships the American military, and can only state his objections to war in libertarian terms e.g. threat of nuclear war & taxpayer spending. No, it’s just that to express common sense in the American political establishment you first need to cross over into nationalist neocon psycho territory, or be labelled a traitor, especially by the post-Obama left that would make Joe McCarthy blush with their persecutory fantasies. You people are so beyond fucked.

Any state with working nuclear weapons and delivery systems represent a threat to humanity.
Considering the corruption, misuse and theft, maybe Russia really does not fit that bill.Russia definitely does as well.
escalation
Disarming a gunman is an escalation now?
But nobody is disarming the USA
Out of left field with the US talking point.
They should try it the same way Ukraine did. I’m not sure what you’re getting at.
USA is the gunman. The fact you pretend not to understand what I said is telling
Your interest in America is fine, but suggesting something unrelated to the conversation as though it were a gotcha, only to be told “do it”, and then take that as vindication is the silliest thing I’ve read this week, and I’ve read what I’ve written.
To reiterate, I understand and agree with your political message, but, like, don’t blurt it out at random, irrelevant times if you want to be taken seriously.
Can’t have an .ml news story without a pro-Putin slant on it.
They hit parked military aircraft. If they are not allowed to hit military targets during war, what are they alllowed to hit?

Susan Webber/“Yves Smith” isn’t even a Marxist, never mind a “tankie.” She’s a financial management advisor for some of the world’s largest corporations.
I did look up who “Yves Smith” was before posting, and agree that the take seemed odd for someone supposedly neutral and objective. Nevertheless, the content of the article speaks for itself and reads like insidious Russian propaganda masking as geopolitical analysis. So I decided to make my comment anyway.
Then I looked up someone who she quoted and gave a 1/3rd of this article to - Scott Ritter. Gotta be some kind of joke if you believe incorporating his perspective is not pro-Russian shill bullshit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Ritter#Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine

See, I don’t think you’ve ever looked up anything before posting, that’s the issue.
Ok, so Scott Ritter is untrustworthy regarding Ukraine, proven by the fact that he’s not unabashedly pro-Ukraine? Do y’all even hear how religious y’all get about the State Department line? You’re only worth listening to if you’re madly pro-Ukraine, up until the point you’re not, and then you’re a Putin shill.
The west isn’t sending their best.

Lmao, thank you.
Gotta love .ml critical thinking faculties. I link directly to a Wikipedia article about the views of Scott Ritter (to whom Susan Webber decided to give 1/3rd of the space of her article), where he is literally identified as a contributor to Russia Today and Sputnik, and I’m downvoted for calling a Russian shill a Russian shill. chefs kiss to .ml
Tides are turning in Ukraine too. Russia is collapsing and putin and all his supporters will pay the appropriate price.
I was in elementary school when Russia was about to collapse
Started high school right when Russia was collapsing
Now I’m in uni, knowing Russia is on the verge of collapse
Mmm… yes? Empires take time to collapse, usually multiple generations. What keep russia alive is war and oil.
years gave us a booboo
You want peace and for your strategic bombers to not go boomboom?
I stg y’all get more infantile with every passing day. Talk like a normal adult jfc.
I fully agree with your comment.
Slava Ukraini - and may Loser Putin and his oligarchs - and all oligarchs worldwide - get what they deserve.
