Why do you keep phrasing this as if a war didn't already start over a year ago after Russia invaded Ukraine?

Seems you'd rather see innocent Ukranians slaughtered than offer them any aid. Why is that?

it's not that; it's that it's the US doing it for a country halfway across the world, as if we're actually going there to help instead of taking advantage of the situation because Russia's involved

if we do go there, it's not gonna be for aid

Because the US is not involved directly. They are not at war here nor should they be. A direct intervention by the us will directly lead to an exchange of nuclear weapons.

I'd rather see nobody die, but seeing as we're in the situation were in I'd prefer if the whole world didn't go up in flames just to offer Ukrainians aid.

You keep seeming to think that the US is solely responsible for Ukraine, why is that?

We're in a post about the US sending troops to Europe which is why I'm talking about the US's involvement. I suppose when you work at a troll farm it's hard to keep all the separate posts straight, eh?

I suppose it's easier to attack than to actually read and comprehend what someone says. I'm fully aware of who I'm talking to and what post were in. You're the guy I triggered by not wanting the us to escalate the situation into WW3 by committing troops.
