The US are playing the long game
The price for Ukraine's independence was for Ukraine to be neutral on Russia's borders.

Ah yes, Redacted... run by an ex Fox 'News' anchor and real estate investor. Running on the tried an true 'truther' type bs that brings in the crayzies...
They want to set the record straight and bring you the stories nobody else is telling. Along with the facts and the full picture, Redacted offers real-world analysis without an agency driven by corporate overloads. With Clayton’s extensive journalism experience, he isn’t afraid to demand the truth from authorities. Redacted is an independent platform, unencumbered by external factors or restrictive policies, on which Clayton and Natali Morris bring you quality information, balanced reporting, constructive debate, and thoughtful narratives.
Why not just post stuff straight from ruZZian state media outlets? lol 'balanced reporting' followed by 'thoughtful narratives'... information shouldnt have any narrative.
Their analyst in that video Douglas Macgregor was also, for the Iraq War, seems to think NATO is pointless and that the 'cold war ended 27 years ago' so hes clearly ruZZian leaning in terms of what he thinks of them as a threat, dislikes immigration and has said Soros is funding immigration to destroy American culture, calls Muslim immigrants in Europe 'unwanted invaders', is all for ruZZia annexing the Donbas and is pro ruZZia in the current war. Is anti Semitic and called black people an 'underclass'...
So... yeah.

Russia will succeed with their Objectives,its inevitable.
lol… best case scenario for Russia is they take a small chunk of eastern Ukraine… that’s best case scenario.
Mean while NATO will advance even further to there doorstep, to the point they can barely breath. Ukraine will slowly become apart of NATO and be provided with some of the most high tech military equipment available and Russia will continue to be isolated and eventually become an even more impoverished country than it already is.
Congratulations to Russia, they’ve shot themselves in the foot!

I don't expect Russia will replay it's disaster as before
but more a slow moving scotched earth strategy.
Ukraine doesn't have the numbers,unless NATO countries offer boots
Jets or Tanks are not enough.
A slow grind.
Not shock and awe.

That was awesome.
Especially the part about Soros.
I will have to look into Redacted now.
It looks like a news source that can be trusted if they are spilling big truths like this.

Redacted never said anything about Soros... the guy they were interviewing in the Video for his opinion on the Urkaine war said the stuff about Soros in the past, elsewhere, it was an example of the mindset and angle of views the guest and type of guests they have on... guess you ignored the bit about him being anti immigrant, anti semitic, racist and anti women in the military... or where they just extra gravy for you after seeing the word 'Soros'? Most of the 'Soros is the debil' crowd tend to have similar views on a big range of things... even if mostly in private.
Do you people ever actually read or simply skim through something for keywords to latch onto for opinion confirmation bias?
Love how for some Soros is this big world manipulating guy with fingers in every pie controlling governments actions the world over... yet there isnt any real proof of any of the things his names thrown onto nor any real big push with anything he throws money at.
He's like the boogeymen man under the bed for Conspiracy folks, stubbed your toe...Soros did it, Wife left you, Soros funded it. Kids being to noisy, Soros gave them money to annoy you. All he is to me is some rich guy I dont even give to damns about to be honest.
Your post came across as misguided sarcasm anyway... my initial post was nothing but pointing out the bias and extreme slant of the channel and the interviewed guest, and to take what they say about the subject with a giant boulder of salt.

I have absolutely no idea what kind of point your trying to make with that link dude.
But I will say that if you are some how trying to insinuate that Russia has any kind of chance of going toe to toe with the US, then you are just beyond delusional.
… just sayin.

...what do you think russias goal actually is?
To get NATO of there door step… do you seriously think they’ll succeed?
At this rate, yea.
You seriously believe the US is just going to give up and give Russia whatever they want?
Yeah nah, they have a plan and the resources to just sit back and play the long game… just watch Russia (Putin) have there little tantrum until they eventually run out of steam… lol.

Actually it is most probable that after NATO falls apart and has to be rebuilt from scratch Russia will be so politically strong after this they will probably lead the NATO alliance.
The dirt Zelensky has on the West to be able to extort so much, and so many, must be very great.

The living embodiment of cognitive dissonance.
The opposite of denying ignorance.
You've once again outdone yourself even with your atrocious spelling.

Is all of NZ living in liberal la la land?
The US-I mean Ukraine-isn't fighting a few million radicals with suicide vests machetes; they're up against fighter planes, tanks and missiles.
I don't see the US as being viewed in a favorable light on the world stage anymore; more like countries are backed into a corner of coerced cooperation. That tide can turn rather quickly.
When/if NATO gets involved every stupid liberal idiot on the planet will be screaming for their mama's, and it will be too late for the peace talks Biden has fought against from day one.
