    Former Warsaw Pact countries that joined NATO created democratic governments. The people in these countries voted to join NATO. We did not force them.

    "the people" did no such thing. Their corrupt leaders made the decisions....violations of the NATO-Russia Founding Act as well. It's quite easy to bribe a few sleezeballs.

    ukie land is learning the hard way what happens when the CIA/US state department aids in the removal of duly elected Presidents....all so that "we won't force them" to join NATO. It's called FAFO and they are currently in FO mode.

    Their leaders aren't corrupt just because you and your employer don't like their policies.

    C-17s are one sweet plane. One of the few jets in the world that can move backward on the ground under its own power!

    So if Cuba, Venezuela, Nicarague allied with Russia and had nukes like Poland is doing you wouldn't mind?

    Ever hear of the Cuban missile crisis.

    If there is going to be a nuclear war isn't it better to be on the winning side?

    The U.S. has designated the nations you mentioned as to be part of our "security zone" IIRC

    In regards to further up thread, Poland doesn't have nuclear weapons

    Pretty sure we're in the same time zone if you are where you claim to be, and I'm probably younger (and more handsome) than you too.

    News reports from a few years ago said they only made $700 to $900 per month. Russians are poor as hell so that is considered a great monthly wage there.

    As long as the Russian government looks for unnecessary tars to fight, the Russian people will remain poor, while the oligarchs remain rich.

    Wow, so Russians can get paid 900 bucks a month pointing out the ignorance of the masses in America?

    Hey Neville Chamberlain- your profile picture of Confederate flag shows you have a poor record of picking the winners in war.

    Troll factory workers only make that much. Average Russians make much less as you well know

    To get back a bit to the topic,

    Ukraine gaining NATO weapons or any other weapons
    is unlikely to be a threat to the US.

    It could be a threat to Russia, but I can't see why the
    US would care, except there is money to be made selling those
    weapons. Not that Ukraine is likely to pay, but the US
    public is very keen to pay any amount of money to
    supply weapons to Ukraine, because of what
    Joe Biden and the media have said.


    Somehow I think the US weapons makers are calling
    the shots.
