Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Ukraine should be allowed to strike deep inside Russia, despite Moscow threatening that this would draw Canada and its allies into direct war.
“Canada fully supports Ukraine using long-range weaponry to prevent and interdict Russia’s continued ability to degrade Ukrainian civilian infrastructure, and mostly to kill innocent civilians in their unjust war,” Trudeau told reporters at a news conference in Ste-Anne-de-Bellevue, Que., on Friday.
This isn’t an error. A proxy war at the expense of innocents has always been the plan. It’s what we do. The rest is just lies we tell ourselves to feel good about it. Ukraine needs to join NATO afterwards so they won’t retaliate with “terrorism” like everyone else has in the past. Bonus: Allied airfields on Russia’s doorstep.
This is bullshit vatnik propaganda.
The west didn’t expect Ukraine to do nearly as well, or Russia to be as much of a joke. We figured kyiv would be rolled in 2 weeks.
Coupled with political nervousness after the mess in the middle east, and rising China, the west has been far too cautious, doubly so with all the support Russia has been giving the far-right everywhere.
We need to hitch up our balls and push forward, the risk isn’t Russia escalating, it’s Russia winning and continuing to rebuild its empire while China pushes similarly in Asia.
This is a new axis forming, we either stop it now or pay a far greater price going forward.
Afghanistan. Iraq. Iran. Libya. Syria.
But, suuuure. This time it’s different.
Ah yes, it’s…

the US fault that Russia invaded Ukraine. Right, makes perfect sense, carry on.
The only involvement the US or even most of the NATO countries have had in this complete shitshow has been to sell obsolete military hardware to Ukraine at a steep discount. It was probably cheaper to ship the stuff in bulk to Ukraine than it would cost to properly decommission it so might even have saved some money doing that.
Russia desperately wants to make this a fight with NATO or even better the US so they look like less of a laughing stock for losing this badly.
Don’t forget Vietnam and Korea.
The US is constantly enmeshed in wars, but when was the last time Americans actually won one? 1945?
That was 79 years ago. Almost one whole Biden.
That was the moron wing of US foreign policy.
Look again and tell me this is the same, Russia has been invaded by their version of Canada.
This is what we should have been doing in the 2010s, which we wasted because of the inbred moron wing of texas trying to control oil.
