    • I loath this man. But he truly is a genius.rootlock
    • If it's a US plot then Putin sure fell into the trap like an idiotyuekit
    • Also going by this logic, does he think the USA is the only country that sells weapons? Isn't Russia #2?yuekit
    • US sells just as much as the next 3 countries combined (Russia, France and China).
      Now this is not because the US is evil.

    • but because of international capital that flows into most profitable markets. And the politics of the US allow those weapon corps to lobby the US Gov.uan
    • so the US have the most profitable laws and politics for the weapon industry.uan
    • Post hoc rationalisation's a wonderful thing.Nairn
    • I'm sure NATO and USA are getting to test out weapons during this conflict and that arms manufacturers are making money.yuekit
    • But this isn't the reason for that war, that would be incredibly stupid.yuekit
    • I have no doubt NATO is testing weapons, handily selling off near sell by date stock and - more to the point - exhibiting to Vlad just what fight he's picked.Nairn
    • I also think it's massively naive/fuck-witted to pretend that the US/West is the sole aggressor in the world. There's a fucking reason the US is dominant..Nairn
    • ..and Chinese strategists were making the same case as the US is now, two and a half millennia ago.
      Fuck around and find out, I guess?

    • Yeah it's hilarious all these billions of dollars in aid to Ukraine. Every single penny of that is coming back to US arms manufacturers and exporters.Khurram
    • "With this war, we will create thousands of jobs in our burgeoning military industrial complex!"Khurram
    • Wow maybe Putin shouldn't have invaded and created this bonanza for American military companies right?yuekit
    • All these attempts at blaming someone else come back to the same fundamental problem which is that Russia can end the war tomorrow if they want to.yuekit
    • Nancy Pelosi isn't going to charge into Russia with a javelin and start attacking the Kremlin, if Russia retreats it really will be over.yuekit
    • Yes and Russians are angels.NBQ00
    • Should we have not given ukraine weapons?scarabin
