If you watch all of the links I’ve posted, nobody in the east seems to see it the way the west does. I think Putin is right to stand up against the west, you’ll find most Ukrainian people agree, they don’t want to be apart of NATO…. Heck, most people who are morally conscious in the west don’t want to be part of NATO. It’s a war machine, it can only thrive through war.
I haven't got time to look at all your links but when you say
nobody in the east, I take it you mean not many people? How many people did you survey?
Fair point there Derek… I can only go off a small sample. I guess that is a lesson for us all.
If you think about it though, would you feel threatened if India, Pakistan, China and Russia formed a creeping alliance towards the west… all of them nuclear powers having the capability of hitting us in minuets? It’s pretty obvious Russia did what they needed to do.
I disagree. It's not a lesson for us all, just people who rely on small surveys.
If those four countries formed a pact that would be worrying, but they're entitled to do it and we can't stop them. If you're saying Russia needed to invade Ukraine, I guess you're simply adopting a different provocative view, as you usually do, just to be different.
