      Ukraine was in a mess due to Russian occupation sine 1700 and 1919 after a year of independence.

      Obviously RF broke the treaty by invading on spurious grounds only credible to a dictatorship deluded by it's own propaganda.
      US has no interest in Ukraine which is far away so a limited trade opportunity. However it does understand that European security is to their benefit and RF aggression is not.

      You're confusing Subject Matter Expertise with Motivation.

      However it is clear that kaputins ruzzian empire delusion is not satisfied by his invasions of Georgia, Azerbaijan or Romania so he has to be defeated in Ukraine to stop that delusion impacting more countries.
      Since Gen Ben has studied the problem in depth he has valuable insight to share.
      So far this war has been superb value for taxpayers as 5% of historical annual Defence spending has destroyed 50% RF combat effectiveness for no US blood. Those weapons would have cost more to safely dispose of so better to use them as they were designed for.
      Their planned replacement was already in US defense budget as innovation means nothing stays effective.
      While the Pentagon likes big numbers to show their commitment nobody values old weapons at the cost to buy new.
      In summary the cost has been tiny for the result achieved.

      How naive.... Nobody's a real threat to the US (as a country) (excluding Nuke threats) but it surely IS a threat to the US global interests. It is the US that feels necessary to have and maintain its global influence on all aspects, isn't it? So in that light yes, Russia and China are a threat to the US (policy).
      Maybe it's time for the US (govt) to sing a lower tune globally since it seems that its people don't see their present global policy as that important anymore.
      Maybe they think the US can be great (again?) without getting too much involved with global affairs. Maybe it'd be worth trying the North Korean way i.e. self isolation (build the wall!), no real involvement with the global affairs politically, military, economically etc but just be busy with themselves domestically.
      That'd be interesting to watch.

      @@cheesy1nacho924 It's true that Russia has nuclear weapons, but many of the former Soviet states have already joined NATO and more are seeking membership now. That effectively rules out any threat from a land war being waged by Russia. If Russia were to ever use the nuclear option, their destruction would immediately follow regardless of any attack damage they may have caused to other Nations. Even the nuclear option is questionable as nuclear weapons particularly fission triggered fusion weapons have a gelatin inside that breaks down over time. After a certain time period these weapons must be decommissioned, broken down and the nuclear core can be used in the construction of a new device with fresh gelatin. Most Soviet era nuclear weapons are likely past the decommission dates.
