Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

I think Mearsheimer has it backwards and the NATO stuff happened because Putin was thought to want to re-annex former Soviet states, which is a big no-no as we have seen.

The whole "existential threat" to Russia is like the biggest rough ridin' bullshit excuse, too. He invaded because he wanted to annex. You know, the usual reason for invading.

Russia seems a lot bigger than Ukraine. Don't understand why Russia sees it as a threat. Or at least a threat that should be approach by waging a catastrophic war on Ukraine. His points about US regime change efforts around the world seem fair.

Also, NUCLEAR WEAPONS. Which Ukraine already voluntarily gave up.

The US has done a lot of shitty stuff around the world. Not sure how that has anything to do with Putin deciding to invade Ukraine. Sounds like another bullshit excuse to me.

destroying a holocaust memorial intentionally is a pretty clear sign this has nothing to do with taking out nazis

Strange that Jews would travel to fight for a neoNazi regime. Perhaps Putin apologists could explain this to us.

xpost farm thread (but don't want to pit up the farm thread). Seriously looks like those Ukranian farmers have some decent hardware.
