Have you learned nothing from WW1? Massive military alliances don't prevent wars.

Notice you don't actually address appeasement doesn't work?

But as for ~~military~~ defence alliance (notice how you tried to misportray that?): Points to cold war.

Something tells me you're a Putin apologist.

You should listen to Dan Carlin's Hardcore History. WW1 was interesting.

You're right; the world has appeased NATO and the USA for far to long.

But as for military defence alliance (notice how you tried to misportray that?)

This is as asinine as saying the Russian invasion of Ukraine isn't a war of aggression because they call it "a special military operation"

Notice that I pointed out that your solution is something else that doesn't work?

(notice how you tried to misportray that?)

Oh fuck off with the smug smarmy shit nobody's impressed.

Something tells me you're a Putin apologist.

Putin has justified half of what he's done by playing the victim and whining about NATO expansion. He wants this, and you want him to have it.
