Considering how the Russian Army has performed in Ukraine, I think a few nerf guns should keep the Baltic countries safe.
Yeah but the F-22 hungers for Sukhoi so we gotta let it eat. /s
None of our allies have the F-22 as far as I’m aware. They’d be using the F-35.
Yeah, the Raptor has never been exported to other countries
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) is an American nonprofit research group and think tank
ISW criticized both the Obama and Trump administration policies on the Syrian conflict, advocating a more hawkish approach. In 2013, Kagan called for arms and equipment to be supplied to “moderate” rebels, with the hope that a state “friendly to the United States [would emerge] in the wake of Assad.”[9] In 2017, ISW analyst Christopher Kozak praised president Donald Trump for the Shayrat missile strike but advocated further attacks, stating that “deterrence is a persistent condition, not a one hour strike package.”[10] In 2018, ISW analyst Jennifer Cafarella published an article calling for the use of offensive military force against the Assad government.[11]
Previous and current members of the ISW’s corporate council include Raytheon, Microsoft, Palantir, General Motors, General Dynamics, and Kirkland & Ellis.[14][15][16]
The role of this organization is likely just defending the economic interests of the military-industrial complex. The idea of Russia invading the Baltics is ridiculous due to the fact that they’re part of both NATO and the EU, but even if it were true it wouldn’t change my current position: continue supporting Ukraine’s defense effort and advancing towards some sort of integration of EU militaries rather than NATO, given that the US is a shaky ally.
Russian dictator Vladimir Putin continues to show that Russia is not interested in serious peace negotiations
At least they call him out for being a dictator.
Without doing the slightest of research: Are these recent pictures of Putin? To me, they’ve looked the same for ages. Are these just archive photos?
Putin’s done some plastic surgery so that might be part of it.
Well ofcourse he’s saying this stuff, it’s not like he can back down now. Sunk cost fallacy and so on… The thing about going to war though is that you need an army for that. Putin may be stubborn but I don’t think he’s stupid. Now is not the time to gamble with NATOs article 5.
He’s depleting all his munitions and bodies in Ukraine. Chance of multiple fronts right now is low at best.

Guess we’ll have to do nothing except condemn those nations to fight a bloody war again, sad
I call bullshit on this, This is nothing short of propaganda by think tank that is financed by the military industrial complex.
Putin won’t dare NATO member countries, especially when he hasn’t finished with Ukraine.
