@Nuno My thought exactly! You must be a real Master Strategist™ to effectively militarize a country while “demilitarizing” it. So much so that those extra tanks Ukraine now has — many if not most of them were russian tanks on February 24.
@Nuno Putin could have completely neutralised NATO's apparent threat to Russia by joining it. More broadly speaking, he would have had far more influence over NATO's missions by being part of it. Albeit without a veto.
@ashwin_baindur @blogscot Yeah. The NATO leadership together with a terrorist state of America planned this long long ago. I say terrorist state because the USA was sponsoring regimes over the decades. What they did in Vietnam / Panama is also terror.
@ashwin_baindur @Nuno I think that will go down in the history books as a gross mistake: to dismiss outright even exploring the possibility of Russian membership of NATO.
There will be inevitably be some within the American Industrial War machine that are not fans of making peace with their enemies and thereby put themselves out of a job.
@blogscot @ashwin_baindur I think that its reversed. That only some units in the USA terrorist war machine want to make peace with their enemies, and most of them doesn't. 99% of their economy is based on murder, blood and suffering. If not for the Nazi scientists after WW II they would be subdued by now
