Don’t be dense, you know what appeasement is and you know who the west would be appeasing. I don’t give a hot damn about Ukraine’s political corruption in the context of a war of aggression, it’s not a valid reason to invade and annex a country. You sound like Zionists with their “ohhh they elected Hamas!” shit. Where does that line of thought end? The next-most corrupt country can be invaded by their stronger neighbor? Mexico is pretty corrupt should the US invade?

You tell me. Mexico allows well-funded and militant cartels to dominate their population, their government, and funnel $BILLIONS worth of narcotics into the USA every single year, the USA could quite easily argue it is in their strategic self-interests to pursue military action in that country.

But back to Ukraine, at what point is enough, enough? How many more $BILLIONS do you personally expect countries like the USA, who are already sitting with over $30 TRILLION in debt, dealing with inflation, to hand over to a corrupt AF Ukrainian Government to wage this war? Should it go on for another 5 years?

Since the USA is basically funding Ukraine's government at this point, should the USA just annex Ukraine, make it the 51st state, and put an immediate end to Russia's war? Or is it just easier to continue milking western taxpayers for endless amounts of cash they have to print out of thin air to fund the war?

Nah dude there’s no discussion to be had here lol. You are justifying the indiscriminate bombing and missile striking of cities because of the corruption of a government. NO the US shouldn’t invade Mexico, NO Russia shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine, NO a corrupt government doesn’t excuse waging a war that is killing thousands of innocent people. Ffs. Disgusting argument.

We should keep going until Ukraine wins.
