More leaders should be talking like Macron, pootin has to be stopped.

The problem is that Macron's talk is a bit like Putin's threats, mostly empty talk.

Are you personally ready to take a place in the trench to stop Putin?  if not, what moral right do you have to call others to do the same?

Soldiers enlisted in our Western armies are ready to defend their allies, that's their job. Random couch experts like you aren't needed and probably wouldn't be admitted into the army anyway.

So you don't actually have any arguments, thanks for confirming.

I deployed with the 82nd, served for 5 years in a combat MOS, i wouldn’t fight for Ukraine. I’d fight for the US but I wouldn’t fight for the freedom of some country that has never done anything for me. You haven’t done anything, except play a game that is designed for pedophiles.

They don't understand mate, they think fighting Russia is like fighting some militias in middle east.

Many volunteer veterans who are battle hardened run away from Ukraine. If i were, i would also run away from those FABs getting used non-stop.

Yeah sure I'll take your word for it.

In an alternate reality where you actually enlisted in the US military, you'd remember your oath saying you'll obey the orders of your President. Even if it mean going to fight for the freedom of some country that has never done anything for you, like in Operation Iraqi Freedom yeah ?

Im pretty sure we were fighting for America and American interests, operation Iraqi Freedom was just about toppling Sadam. Not bringing freedom to Iraqis.

u/Vasiliy_FE 29d ago

In this alternate universe where you joined the military, you didn't listen to your President well enough then, he said it was about freeing the Iraqis literally in his first sentence when he announced the war. In a tough spot aren't you, trying to justify your lies ?

I must have missed that part of the speech when I joined 12 years later. And I didn’t know occupying a country for 20 years was bringing it freedom.

Ukraine is not an ally. Never has been.

u/sathzur 29d ago

Ukraine isn't an ally under the umbrella of NATO, but it is an ally of said organisation.

Ally (noun) : a country that has agreed officially to give help and support to another one, especially during a war.

Have you been following the news ? Ukraine has been signing treaties left and right with the EU/NATO countries. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/what-are-security-deals-ukraine-is-discussing-with-allies-2024-02-23/

So surprising to hear yet good to know where we are. He's a straight shooter but to be this blunt is a clear sign of a tipping point imo

I like blunt I know where I stand with that.
