NBC News: Trump eases Russian oil sanctions as Iran war sends prices spiking
https://www.nbcnews.com/world/russia/trump-eases-russian-oil-sanctions-iran-war-prices-ukraine-europe-rcna263310
What I am seeing is that Trump started an illegal war to fund Putin's illegal war.

(7,760 posts)has been for decades. Russia plays the long game. They never planned to bomb or go to war with the US, they knew they could take us down from the inside... because OUR oligarchs are just like THEIR oligarchs! One thing Putin knows is how to "handle" rich white men.
And I do hope we don't get into semantics... that crap is driving me crazy. He can't be a traitor because he doesn't fit the very narrow single definition of treason. And yet, anyone with a lick of sense sees what he's doing as treason. We have to either come up with new words for his crimes, or redefine the existing ones. Because he ain't getting out of this alive...

(25,762 posts)to fight? It happened briefly in WWI on Christmas Eve. Both sides saw no point in fighting each other on the holiday that was supposed to celebrate peace on earth. They laid down their arms and met each other in no man's land between the lines.
Why should soldiers fight and die on behalf of oligarchs and dictators who sell war in the name of patriotism when it is only for the personal gain of the leaders who start the war?
