Thank you. I would start with what we know to be true (at least one mind exists), and then see if any further assumptions about reality are warranted....

That which exists when mind is removed.

I agree with that.

That seems pretty unlikely.

That's true.

I think Ukraine can outlast Russia in a war of attrition. They have high morale, the moral high ground, and Europe and America in their corner.

But what is Putin's choice? End the war with no concessions from Ukraine? I don't think he would remain in power if he did that. I don't think Ukraine...

Should work now.

Here's a good article on that: https://time.com/5564207/russia-nato-relationship/ Remember that Trump said quite a few times that NATO was "obsolete"....

I don't think it does. I think Putin knows NATO is not a threat to Russia. The Western countries would love for Russia to get its act together and wor...

You have a valid point that America has not been a vey good neighbor.

Russia, as they've shown with this invasion and nuclear saber rattling, is a threat to the world, and esp. their neighbors. I wouldn't want to live ne...

NATO is not a threat to Russia, and Putin knows it.

Exactly right.

I think the main reason is Putin wanted a big chunk of Ukraine (or the whole thing) and thought he could walk in and take it.

As I said before, I don't engage with you because you're not an honest debater.

Sometimes it is.

It's what we thought about Hitler's high command (some of them) at Nuremberg. We were right, the Nazi's were wrong.

Some people need to be put down for what they do.
