Kennan’s Warning on Ukraine Ambition, Insecurity, and the Perils of Independence

NATOs express purpose is the containment of Russian communism, it has zero to do with morality.

The US helped get rid of the Russian sympathizing leader in Ukraine in 2014 and started the civil war that led to this invasion, people also like to leave that part out.

We absolutely did “choose” to join in this fight, most people wouldn’t have cared if they weren’t told to. I hope we get to use the A-10s for what they were designed for, don’t get me wrong, but this is just our war machine purring along the same as it always has. This war is good for both Putin and Biden because they are weak leaders who get to use the war as a platform to look “strong.” Still, Kennan does suck anyway I don’t think you’re wrong
