The theory (spin) was ... bombs are made to prevent wars.

The reality ... wars are made to sell bombs.   

People dying is simply part of the profit making.

Your argument is Putin will stop after he wins in Ukraine. Where are your facts and evidence to support that?

Expand  

Well I can start the digression by asking if you realisticly beleive that Putin is an actual danger of "winning" against Nato, considering he will be fighting in the Ukraine until he dies, US aid or not.

AFAIK the US is doing very well for itself in that field, whereas those nations who bought Russian armaments are having considerable buyer's remorse.

Putin could conceivably win against NATO if it is neutered by Trump.

Ukrainians have to kill 8 Russians for every casualty on their side to even achieve parity.

Are you referring to the United States? Or South America? Can you please clarify. Thai's are experts in geography as well know. My favorite question from them is. Is it hot in America?.

IIRC Europe certainly needed Uncle Sam in the aftermath of WWII, hence the Berlin Airlift and the Marshall Plan.

Why did you choose a nom-de-plume whose namesake headed up the NKVD during Stalin's purge of 1934 - 1936, only to be executed in 1938?

Before you get too conceited on geography, please note most Americans think Australian cities have kangaroos hopping up and down our thoroughfares.

Really they don't, I can verify that but they are all over the dam place outside of the city. Its true, but they have too dam many flies. I got married to one from Portsea Melbourne area many years ago. Have some pity.

Well we can start talking about their success so far against the two-bit country they're fighting. You don't think the the Poles wouldn't kick their ass like they did back in the '20s?
