Re << How is Russia cornered? >>
There is little need to seek an answer to that very proper question, because only Russia needs to believe Russia, for whatever Russia sees as the setup, is cornered, is enough.
Yes, Russia thuggish. Russia invaded. Russia killed Ukrainians, military and civilian. All wars where civilians die are criminal in nature.
All yes.
So, what is the off-ramp that would stop the war? That is the core issue.
Is any nation-state willing to go nuclear on Russia? I think if the electorates are polled the answer would be a resounding ‘no’.
Now what? Who wants to standup and be counted?
Victoria ‘f*ck the EU Nuland? Boris Johnson? Blinking Blinken? Kamala? Pelosi? Who stand up be counted in for ‘limited’ nuclear war.
Say Russia, just on whim, even if for no reason at all, takes out Poland tomorrow. What do you suggest any nation do?
Make it happen, but predictably, count most of us on this planet out. This is why I believe massive regime-changing operation shall sweep the world by and by, and tomorrow we watch France, because France may well turn ungovernable by Monday morning, and in any case French security guarantee by way of Nato cannot be exercised for the people by the people against other people as the immigrant population shall vote with the ‘no-more’ voters even as the ‘no-more’ voters shall vote against the immigrant population. It will be more complicated going forward.
Food for thought, that Mother Russia is neither afraid nor vulnerable to any coalition form-able against it.
Once we realize the reality of the situation, we can then layer on complications of the why’s and whereof’s, until the entire situation is as clear as mud.
And yes, I remain agnostic because, guess what, I do not and therefore cannot suggest a solution to the puzzle.
Bottom line, Ukraine betrayed. |
