What is the U.S. TERRITORIAL GOAL in Ukraine?

[jwoodie]

Now that many posters have had their catharsis by vilifying Putin, Biden, Zelinski and/or Trump, I will TRY to refocus on the question of what is (or should be) the territorial goal of U.S. policy towards Ukraine. I don't think the current U.S. administration has any territorial goal in mind that would constitute an acceptable basis for ending the war in Ukraine. Instead, they want to continue the war and paint Putin as an insane monster as long as it is politically beneficial (at least through the 2024 elections). But please prove me wrong by responding to this poll question and explaining your answer..

As for our territorial goal dealing with Ukraine and Russia, I don't think it has anything to do with borders.
I believe it has everything to do with us having a proxy war pitting Ukraine against Russia. The US wants
Putin gone...period.

Not sure if it's territorial, the goal is probably to get Hunter Biden his old job back.

Putting the world on the brink of WWIII is a great way to get someone a job back!

Pre-2022 borders, or bleed Russia's armed forces out to a peaceable stalemate. Either way, it's a win for us. We've been proxy-warring for years.

American taxpayer's are getting bled.
But you're young, and may or may not figure this out.
For now, NOT!!

I'd rather pay high taxes now, then have a mothers son pay with his blood later.

Will there even be a substantial US in a couple of year's time , say?

I have real doubts given the recession later this year , followed by the dollar no longer the reserve currency .
This looks like the flailing end of a mini Empire gone full rotten with the vultures lining up to strip it down to its bones .

It is interesting that no one seems to care about Russia's invasion of Ukraine/Crimea in 2014. Is that because it happened under Obama's watch? Even as to pre-2022 borders, that seems to be little more than a pretext for getting rid of Putin.

Is this a legitimate armed intervention to protect U.S. security interests, or is it a maneuver to serve domestic political interests?

I see you have learned to virtue signal in defense of war pigs.

Well maybe.
Or maybe not.

The good news is that at this point we've spent only half of what we've committed to Ukraine.
Are bets being hedged??

Yep, another useful rw idiot.

Ukraine asked us for help defending their young democracy against an invasion and that's what we are doing.

If China or India invaded them we would be doing the same.

America has had a warring history. I choose to embrace the warrior culture, rather than be afraid of it. Americans should never be afraid of war.

Especially when the opposition has 3,000 more nukes than you do!!

You're talking soviet era technology bud. We can see that Soviet era technology isn't really that great today. Don't be a tail tucking bitch.

I do not think it is territorial. It is about a changing global world order.

I was prepared to do some bad things to get a job.

Change how?

Before the global order was for Russia to constantly land grab it's neighboring countries and now America wants it change it?
