Were the Democrats in power, wouldn’t they be doing the same thing? Or would they be wasting their time over Ukraine?
Probably both.Nuclear war almost triggered this Christmas because of Europe and Ukraine.

The same old. The flip flop cttee at work to keep the war going.

NATO really preparing for war, says Belarus.
NATO massing on Kaliningrad border. Ukraine calling up two million draftees for 2026.
An American wit said that people care more for their cars than for their children. If someone damages their car they are furious. But if their children are sent to war and killed, not only are they not furious with the government that sent them to war, they become even more militaristic and patriotic.
The tragedy is, that once Europe’s governments attack Russia and Russia responds and soldiers and civilians are killed, those anti-war energies will be converted into mass hatred of Russians – which is what the governments are counting on. Pacifism and whatever awareness there is will, as always, be trampled in the rush to enlist. Only this time, before anyone shoulders a gun, we’ll all be ashes.
” Is it the workers’ fault, or the system’s fault?”
Neither. It just is. If something does persuade them, that will then be how it is too.
I disagree about the French protests. The Frexit party, or whatever it’s called, is riding the wave, not being blindly followed. The anti-war wave in France is genuine working class feeling, just unaware of capitalism being the cause of war.
Mine too. And I know they are all killers, Putin too. I just see the killing being made to continue every day by this shilly-shallying of the American govt. and the deliberate sabotaging of deals by the EU/UK mob. Their “be prepared to lose your children” advice inflicted on us shows their utter contempt and indifference for the proletariat, whose lives they callously destroy across the world every day.
The US will impose maybe this week more sanctions on Russia if Russia does not agree to the Ukraine-Europe-US deal which includes NATO troops going into Ukraine and an Article 5 provision for Kiev.

How does this tally with the view of others here?
The United States’ real position is with Europe and Kiev. The talks with Russia are a smokescreen and go nowhere, and the fallback position is always with NATO.
The US is still fighting this proxy war and the European continent is to be the testing ground.
