    I don't think NATO armed forces have anything to fear from a conventional military engagement with Putin, especially with the addition of the professional and capable Swedish and Finnish armed forces.
    LIAR, I told you what the Russians were up to, what they were planning to do.

    No, obviously NATO has nothing to fear from Russia, but NATO sells the lie, which is a huge problem. THe propensity for lying is a symptom of the death of the West.

    But you have routinely blustered about how great your judgement and predictions are.

    But on February 24, you just blindly assumed the proficiency and capabilities of the Russian army was totally awesome.

    I did no such thing, for instance I said that if Ukraine went badly then Putin would be gone.

    Russia has enough nuclear weapons to kill 80 to 98% of the people in NATO. That seems like a danger to me.

    Putin has alt right supporters, like Hawkeye, who think he is a great savior of the west. That is a danger too.

    You are such a liar, I have been saying nonstop for years that Russia has joined The New Chinese Empire which is out to kick our asses because they really hate us, and that they almost certainly will.

    In February, you were so convinced of the prowess and capabilities of Russia's military, you were screaming in bold red caps that Ukraine was going to get it's ass kicked.

    I am your occasionally humble reporter, when I report on what is I am talking about the true nature of the Universe to the best of my ability.

    You have to meet me here before I would be willing to invest into you.

    And you have to not be a shit generally.

    I dont need anymore of those.
