Ukraine wants to join NATO

[Moose242]

This is big. First we pissed off Putin by fucking up his Ruble, and now the Ukrainian Parliament just voted 330 to 8 to remove their ban on joining NATO They are now seeking to join. Even with Obama as a weak leader, Putin is still getting shit on from all directions serendipitously.

Reckon they will be allowed to join?

They will probably be allowed to if for no other reason tho give the finger to Putin. Should be fun to watch.

Isn't this like trying to get insurance AFTER an accident to cover an accident?

Why would they need to join NATO? They already have a treaty with the US of A saying that we will intervene militarily to any Russian aggression towards them and we all know that treaty is as good a gold with Obama in charge.

Good point. The US has been the claws behind Europe's posturing for the last 70 years. Why would Putin take any of Europe seriously when their guard dog has left the yard?

The only thing stopping Putin right now is Russia's economic issues, and how long until a Sino-Russian agreement staunches that bleed?

You mean NATO the organization that became obsolete the day the Berlin Wall came down? NATO, the UN, and all that crap should be kicked from our shores and we should give them both a big FU.

You spent $30,000 on tutors and test prep and you are "considering" a local law school with your lsat score that would place you in contention for places like Yale, Harvard, and Chicago? Please tell us more about your fantastically bullshit life.

NATO countries should stick to being NATO countries. Ukraine is nowhere near the Atlantic...

Great thread resurrection

[scootro]

Putin can do anything he wants because it’s been proven time and time again no one will do anything. Until he attacks a nation that is actually tied directly to NATO. I don't think Putin's that dumb to attack NATO

Boots to the ground Ukraine! Kick's some ass
