When the Russian tanks roll into...

[Uncle Sparky]

Well. The Winter Olympics are on. A little over 4 years ago, I suggested the Ruskies were going to invade Ukraine. They did liberated Crimea and a slice of eastern Ukraine shortly after the Sochi Winter Olympics.
So, whose turn is it to be liberated this time? This time, the Russians have an American president in their corner, for the first time since WW2. Even when allies, the American president(s) never seemed too enthusiastic about Russia.
I think Finland is long over due for a bit of liberation. Georgia Republic still has several parcels of land that don't belong to mother Russia. Of course, Ukraine still has areas under fascist (non-Russian) control.
Any bets on who is next?

I understand allowing the Russian athletes to come over and compete individually under the Olympic flag - no Russian flag or anthem.

What I don't understand is why they were allowed to compete as a "team" in the Team Skating competition.

Gold medal for invading countries goes to Great Britain. US gets the Silver. Russia has to settle for the Bronze unless Putin makes a heroic 4th quarter comeback.

Wait a sec... what about Spain? They're currently having trouble staying united, but they did a lot of conquering.

Wait, shouldn't it be South Korea invading someone?

I liked seeing the groups of north Koreans in the stands cheering. All in the same seating block so they could make sure EVERYONE got back on the bus.

After over a foot of snow this weekend, I'm with you. Hopefully we've gotten past the worst of it.

I thought this was going to be about the US splatting 200 Russian "mercenaries" (read: Putin's volunteers) in Syria after they crossed over the Euphrates river and attacked a US base in the Kurdish controlled area. Yeah, those poor dumb bastards weren't going to make it back to their side of the demarcation line.

I read that many were vets of the Ukraine fighting. This gave me a warm fuzzy feeling.

After declaring he knew nothing about the little green men who attacked the US base, most of whom got splatted by US artillery and air strikes, and that they definitely weren't part of the Russian military... They are all now being treated in Russian military hospitals. Yep, nothing to do with Putin.

The sobering part is Putin thought he could play little games and attack a US base with his totally not Russian military forces. I bet there is all sorts of signal intel about these guys calling for help. Everyone knows they were active duty Russian military even if Putin wants to play pretend games so hopefully he got the message that the games he has played for years in the Ukraine won't be tolerated by the Americans.

[Uncle Sparky]

But why haven't the last 2 presidents (not including Trump; he has his reasons) made a concerted effort to stop Putin's salami tactics in Georgia and Ukraine?
