$5.4 billion dollars a week and counting, and all we've gotten (so far) is a bunch of armchair #neocons who don't understand Russian military doctrine.    It's like they went off to the various "war colleges" of their respective branch and learned nothing.   But they know they can propagandize #blueanon rank and file easily and being a major news network talking head probably provides some good spending cash in between consulting for defense contractors, or sitting on the board of the same, or heading up some #neocon think tank. 

Sad

Dax, as the most brilliant, most informed, and wisest person in the country (world??), why haven't you volunteered for civil service? Don't you love this country and want to preserve it? We could really use you in the highest ranks of government to keep us safe and prosperous.

Yeah, it's one of those things where people very obviously gaslight you right to your face, and you're so shocked at the brazenness that you don't know how to respond (using "you" in the universal sense; I'd know how to respond).

At one time I worked for the USDA and I immediately got tired of all the paper pushing and blatant waste, and huge dollars being spent on things that didn't work (and not long after I left the GAO said they same thing about the area I was in). 

But that was an excellent straight to the tapout post, spracs  :thumbsup:

Would strongly recommend Snyder's book Bloodlands if you have not read it.

NATO should just kick Turkey out.  Turkey would be fine by themselves.  They are clearly strong enough to defeat Russia alone.  Maybe it would be best for both sides to just break up.

Why do you feel so strongly about this, Pete? Without awesome drones from Turkey, there would be no drone videos.

I do love those videos.

I just want the conference to pickup Finland and Sweden really bad. Looks like Turkey is ready to negotiate, so that’s good.

They should form a new NATO that doesn't have Turkey and keep the old NATO, so Turkey remains protected and has to help everyone in the alliance except for Finland and Sweden.

This hasn't been talked about much. In February, I assumed that Russian hackers would expose everyone's internet search history as retaliation for Western support of Ukraine and do some more Colonial Pipeline shenanigans.

Some people just don't have what it takes to see a genocide thru to the end, I guess.

That would create a Venn-NATO
