We know that Biden is frighteningly stupid; but his handlers are as well?

Russia's patience is unbelievable. Their stoic resistance to provocation for the sake of humanity is unmatched.

Actually I am surprised that they haven't said, "'F' it, if you Americans -- RINOs and Leftists -- want a real war, then that's what you'll get."

The problem is if we keep escalating this with the responses that we allow the Ukrainians, it could happen. All the Russians have to decide is that this is no longer an allowable proxy war in their estimation. We are playing with nuclear fire. As a former nuclear missile technician, I'm not exactly happy about that.

True, this situation is both terrifying and ridiculous. Russia is an incredibly patient country that truly understands the real cost of war and thus seeks by every measure to avoid it.

Plus the fact that NATO has absolutely 0 combat experience against a peer-military of any kind in contrast to Russia which is not only the most combat experienced nation on earth, but also now trained and experienced to fight against NATO equipment, troops, tactics and logistics.

The thing that I'm genuinely worried about is that the west will continue to ignore Russia's warnings about WW3 and nuclear confrontation between the 2 militaries and that Russia will have no choice but to **actually** escalate and use nukes which could spark a full blown conflict between them and NATO which would quickly turn into an apocalypse as a direct conflict between NATO and Russia is existential for both sides and both would use their doomsday weapons against each other.

I've been worried about WW3 ever since Russia invaded but since this whole thing about Biden allowing Ukraine to strike inside Russia with US-provided weapons (and using Trumps rigged verdict as distraction in the news cycle) I'm now genuinely scared of escalation. I hope this all calms down and peace resumes because the idea of war scares me and I'm not afraid to admit it.

I hope and pray for peace because if not then holy f**k the alternative is terrifying to contemplate...

Indeed. It brings back the horrors of Cold War incidents and tensions. The idiots pounding their chests and talking trash about what we SHOULD do in regards to Russia, have never worn a military uniform and had their worthless and hyper-pampered behinds put on the line for anything. It ain't like in the movies. They just don't understand . . . and don't want to understand.

You know a state is messed up when getting nuked might be an improvement.
