To be fair they really have no choice. Trump has put them in this position and doing nothing would be just surrender to Putin eventually

On the plus side, the Capitalists finally have one arena where they can make profits, which China can't beat them at because the military industrial complex is subject to protectionism. Because they've lost the race for eco-friendly power generation and EV's to China.

Sadly not quiet if you're on the receiving end of smart missiles. @quaker.org.uk will continue to protest and campaign for peace & justice
