Where did I say that the invasion is not happening?
Whatever is happening, of which I am sure we don't know the half of it, there are plenty of hawks in the US who have been itching for a chance to wage war. Its good for the morale of the nation to fight a just and moral war, and is a great tailwind for the sitting President who can use it to unite a country which has been seeing rips in its social fabric for the past several years.
I sit in Europe and hope and pray that this doesn't escalate.

I share your sentiment, although it has escalated for Ukrainians already
- llampx 5y agoI condemn Putin's actions whole-heartedly. Also, escalate means escalate further than it already has, unless you think it can't get any worse.
- DoctorOW 5y ago> Where did I say that the invasion is not happening? You said the outrage over Russia's invasion was a product of the US. Since the US isn't in control of Russia's actions, the implication is the US is misrepresenting what's happening. You doubled down on this with your "Whatever is happening" nonsense.
- llampx 5y agoWhatever is happening means what is happening behind the scenes, what we don't know about. Unless you think that everything is taking place under the clear light of day, which I don't. Let's not forget that the US has opposed Nord Stream 2 because they would love to supply Europe's fossil fuel needs themselves or through their buddies in the Middle East. Also, I condemn Putin's actions fully. This war is going to be a heavy burden for Russians, Ukrainians and other Europeans alike, among others.
