My gut keeps telling me that there is more to this Ukraine thing than meets the eye. When the administration keeps releasing intel that says that Russia is going to invade, then my mind immediately goes back to the cherry picking of intel that supported our invastion of Iraq. Also despite Biden telling us that he won't put troops in the Ukraine, he has 82nd Airborne units on the border of Ukraine - so technically, we are not in Ukraine, but almost (this is the same argument that my cat uses about not sitting on the table. Technically, he is not on the table, but is sitting on a paper on the table).
You notice we are no longer hearing about the "poor middle class and working poor" that needs all these breaks, we're not hearing about his failed Build Back Better bill, we're not hearing about climate change or any of the other myriad of things this administration likes to talk about, but have basically failed at.
It would not surprise me at all that Biden is making the big deal about this to refocus everyone's attention away from everything that goes bad - which is about everything he touches. And also to keep attention off of Inflation, to unsettle the stock market.
Putin said today that he plans to declare the Doubas region as part of Russia. This is the Russian seperatist area. While the media is making much of this, there are areas of the Ukraine that do wish to belong to Russia. Little know is that Crimea was primarily Russian speakers and Russian retirees (it was likened by a Ukrainian friend as the "Florida" of Russia). It's not all cut and dried as the Administration and the media would have us believe. And remember Biden said that a "minor incursion" on the part of Putin might not be worthy of sanction? Putin said after a phonecall with Macron this weekend that Biden had agreed to some of Russia's terms....
In my opinion, the US is just as capable as Russia into turning Ukraine into a pawn. If we were so worried about Ukraine, why would we not immediately make Ukraine a NATO member and protect them???
