Why Putin invaded Ukraine

Here’s Why Putin Invaded Ukraine – And How He Just Shattered The World Order | The Daily Wire

It is spelled out very well here and makes a lot of sense. Putin isn't worried about Ukraine joining NATO and bordering him. Estonia borders Russia and is part of NATO. It is about resources and power. As the West stupidly goes green too quickly, China, Russia and radical Islam are taking advantage via their control of energy, cheap labor and military might. Meanwhile the West seems meek and powerless.

Where is Winston Churchill when you need him?

We in America need to stop election weak politicians like Biden, Harris, Pelosi, the Squad, etc. And start electing those with some combat, business and foreign policy experience. Elections have consequences.

If the west is so weak and they are so strongly positioned, why invade a smaller, weaker country to steal its resources and pand?

Also apparently, you think invading weaker countries makes Putin look strong.

That's adorable. Not really.

Putin is invading Ukraine for personal pride and legacy.

I am saying that as far as I know, Russia has never been invaded via Latvia and Estonia.

Latvia and Estonia also don't have the resources that Ukraine has. Fair?

When did I say it made him look strong? LOL

He is invading for resources more than anything else.

So you didn't read the link in the OP. If it was worried about NATO it would have been worried about Estonia, which borders Russia and IS part of NATO.

No, I didn't read the link. But your logic on comparing Estonia is flawed.

How is NATO an aggressor? LOL

It has a history of aggression, and even an instance of the US not being able to convince the UN to invade on America's behalf and so used Nato.
The US has been nothing 'but' military aggression since the end of WW2.
Scream and stamp your feet all you like on that!

If you don't take the time to read what I post. I'll do the same for you. Troll.

People say:

Texas has a bigger economy than Russia.

The western sanctions will make the country even poorer.

Russia's army is a miserable shadow of what the soviet army was.

And then they say:

Russia wants to recreate the Soviet Union (Baltic states, Khazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Armenia, etc...) complete with its satellite states (Poland, Bulgaria, Romenia, East Germany, etc).

Even cheap propaganda is supposed to have a modicum of coherency.

Lots of countries and areas have resources.

He chose Ukraine because of personal legacy. The "crown jewel" of the USSR, as it was sometimes called.

So you didn’t read the link either. Lol

I did.

I understand the appeal of the resources.

I also understand the mythology that has rotted Putins brain. Because he shows us.in his own words.

He called the breakup of the USSR one of the greatest tragedies of human history.

He called Ukraine the "crown jewel that was lost."

But some would have us believe he just figured out Ukraine has stuff in it, so time to invade.

Oh no no no. Putin has had his sights on Ukraine for 20 years.

Russian leaders were already worried about NATO expansionists in 1992 (30 years before the war) when Putin was a nobody even in Saint Petersburg.

If the Ukraine didn't have resources I am not certain he invades.

Stalin engaged in genocide, slaughtering the ethnic Ukrainians (Kulaks) and replacing them with Russians.

Some trivia about Ukraine by George V.Pinchuk. History of Ukraine: The genocide of Ukrainians by Stalin. Part 10. For the part of Ukraine now taken by the Soviets, the 1930s and 40s were, overall, a dark time.

Ukraine is the ancestral home of the Russian people:

"Migrations from the territories of present-day Ukraine throughout the Balkans established many South Slavic nations. Northern migrations, reaching almost to Lake Ilmen, led to the emergence of the Ilmen Slavs, Krivichs, and Radimichs, the groups ancestral to the Russians"

If anything Russia was too patient... and waited too long to draw the line.

Rubbishworld Turns to Rubble

But what a line the Z-men have drawn! The whole Glowbully multicultie monolith is imploding, crumbling like a crushed cookie.

You don’t even know history. You’re a moron

You've failed to learn from history. Churchill was a warmongering fool. How could not know this? Oh yeah, you only know what the state told you about history.

Somehow dumb Americans, of which there are many, ignore or excuse their government’s imperialist murderous actions, but are quick to call Putin a war criminal.

If Putin’s a war criminal, what does that make W and O? Those two jackals are responsible for far more deaths and destruction than Putin.

The hypocrisy of dumb Americans is unfathomable.

You just exposed yourself as a fool. Get informed before posting. Please.

Are you seriou? You don’t know of NATO’s many aggressive actions. WTF man! You just exposed yourself a fool AGAIN.

STOP NOW!

Look in the mirror. You’re crazy

You're pretty much right but few Americans take the time to learn the truth. However, there are many who know the truth and deny or are in denial.

It was known before Iraq1 and especially Iraq2, but that's when any deniability was ended.
My country Canada, is guilty too but at least we had the sense to stay out of their criminal Iraq war.

On a brighter note, a few Americans are starting to get it too, but their motivation is coming from their domestic political sh-tfight.
