NATO Members Want Longer Ukraine War

Funnily enough, as this proxy war continues, the whole world is financially going down the drain, shortages, etc.
Anybody seen any sunflower oil around recently.
It’s not just Russia which is feeling the impact.

Except in China. They don’t seem to be feeling much of anything.

Not the USA. We have a food surplus.
Funny how US foreign policy benefits US agriculture.
Almost like it was planned that way.

No negative impact on petrol prices?

No inflation because of increased money supply?
Look at your country's money supply before blaming anything else. I know there are other factors, but money supply is the main one.

That doesn’t mean anything to me.

Lip service to convince you it is not a puppet government.

So America installed a puppet government that they instructed to make the U.S. look like an unwanted and despised force to throw people off the trail?

Uh-huh.

Are they really trying? Why is Iraq unable to make them leave? Don't they have control over their own government?

You really can't think of why Iraq is unable to move remove the most powerful military in the world? The same military Iraq was unable to stop from invading in the first place?

Think really, really hard as to why that might be, kiddo.

Look into it. Many countries devalue their currency to be able to sell goods to the USA. If their currency is too strong they cannot do that.

Have you looked into the money supply in the Netherlands?

You just admitted Iraq has no sovereignty.
You realize that, right?

And? Iraq despises U.S. presence there and keeps trying to get them out. What kind of "puppet government" does that?

You mean the Iraqi people despises U.S. presence there. That is why the Iraq government pretends to want the USA to leave. If they didn't pretend the people would be sure it is a puppet government, not that many people there don't already accept that reality.

So instead of engaging in some sort of pro-American propaganda, the "puppet government" is acting in the same exact way they would normally.

Gotcha.

So governments that cannot get people to leave their own country is normal.

You make it sound as though Putin has been programmed by the CIA.
He did not need to invade Ukraine he already had Crimea and the Donbas and he knew that NATO was not going to admit Ukraine, I love the way you blame the west for Putin’s psychotic behaviour and his strategic failures.

You changed the theme of the discussion. We were not talking about starting a war, but about prolonging the war.

The USA occupies about one third of Syria, the oil rich part. That is a land grab.
All land grabbers should get the F out.

Stop endorsing double standards.
If the USA can do it so can Russia.

I agree with your argument except for this phrase:

"If the USA can do it so can Russia."

It is a very typical logical mistake made in Russian reasoning and propaganda.
Besides, it has been several times explained to you in other threads of the present Forum but you seem to completely ignore the arguments presented.

Note also that you are not sufficiently exact with your word "can".
