White House considers attaching Ukraine funding to Israel aid package
The U.S should not have funded Ukraine in the first place and funding to other countries is selling…
Putin is too dangerous of a risk. This isn't just about Ukraine; it affects the world.
While it's true that Putin's actions can have global implications, it's also important to remember that the world is not a chessboard with only two players. For instance, let's look at the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. The world was on the brink of nuclear war, not just because of the USSR's actions, but due to a complex web of international relations, miscommunications, and actions taken by multiple countries.
It might be simplistic to pin all responsibility on a single figure. We must also factor in the role of NATO, the European Union, and other global powers. So, how do you think these other global actors can contribute to the solution?

It indeed requires international cooperation and accountability. So many conflicts are based on misunderstand and too many people demoralize each other, it's sad. While it is true that the world is complex and it there are many players, Ukraine is under immediate threat from Russia, and it has truly affected the world. We must focus on helping Ukraine in this situation, as well as holding Putin accountable for his actions. I wasn't trying to put all responsibility on a single figure, I was simply pointing out how flawed the comment that the user who I was responding to was.

“We must focus on helping Ukraine in this situation, as well as holding Putin accountable for his actions.”
Consider the U.S. involvement in Iraq based on the premise of Weapons of Mass Destruction, which led to a power vacuum and the emergence of ISIS.
This isn't to say that we should turn a blind eye to Ukraine's plight but rather we should be cautious about the potential ripple effects of our actions. Perhaps a more diplomatic approach, like fostering negotiations or economic sanctions on Russia, might be a more prudent course of action.

This isn't about us disagreeing, it's a matter of considering the reality and analyzing the choices with a risk-benefit method. We very much should learn from our actions. Look at Germany after WW2, there's wasn't another Hitler this time. If we are careful and show to the Russian people we actually want to help, then we act to improve life there and takes measures so a power vacuum doesn't happen. Yes, we have to consider what happened with appeasement right before WW2 and the failed policy in Iraq too. Peace talks were tried. They might work in the future, I realize that should be the first priority, BUT we must be so prepared for the worst because of who Putin is. If you don't mind me asking, are you an AI bot that replies to people or just use AI to come up with responses?
