WW III ?

[Oluwa-btc]

This ain't funny no more, I be reading about this for sometime now.
Americans are not doing nothing about this, is Biden scared ? Are they siding Putin ?
I see something here, US is simply the main focus not Ukraine!
We don't want war, if you have been in one, you wouldn't pray for another.  Pray for Ukraine!

But then, explosions already

I doubt very much that this is the beginning of a WWIII, at most the beginning of another cold war but I don't think it is even that.

It must be clear that a WWIII will soon end with atomic bombs on both sides, and although I do not trust much in any of the leaders involved, I doubt that they are such imbeciles as to kill humanity by playing to see who gets more cocky.

But what the hell , they started invasion and US hasn't done shit.
All those siding US are in this together... Explosions everywhere ohh thee little kid's, how will they handle this ?
I Guess they're scared to sanction them coz of gas, Germany at most haven't shown any signs of support.

EU countries have very little interest in Ukraine over Russia. The same facts are true for the USA too and are seen by their actions. The USA wants war for doing business by selling arms. They are more interested in exporting arms to Ukraine rather than helping them by armed forces. But we can not say for sure things won't turn towards something else. The USA is known for its wickedness and they could see this as an opportunity to demolish Russian dominance. Though the chance of Turning this into a world war is little however an unwise move from one side could spark it.

What the hell is going on. Many of us saying it world war III
Is it?
I don't think so.
Soon they will settled down. Because this will effect on other countries too.
You all should pray.
Enough is Enough.

It won't turn into a third World War, Biden is not stepping in not because they are particularly afraid of Russia, but due to them trying not to escalate an already awful situation, which could easily take a turn for the worse. Putin has warned western countries against a military interference, indirectly threatening them, thus, NATO and the European Union won't support (militarily) a country like Ukraine.

Let's also take into account that Ukraine has more than 15 nuclear power reactors, a simple mistake could lead to a worldwide disaster.

It won't turn into a third World War,

If the Putin Maniac continues to invade other Countries, then it might as well turn into World War III. I don't think other Countries, especially those in Europe, will keep watching as Russia keeps invading their neighbors.

Surprisingly, Finland might be next.  This guy is nuts.

NATO and US has better economy than Russia. Russians are suffering. America is winning the cold war and Russia has no hope of catching up with them. An angry loser might decide destroy the game. Putin is out for anything. It is NATO that is cooling the world polity down. If US responds, it would definitely lead to World War 3

[TheCoinGrabber]

I doubt it. Considering how reluctant the Western powers are at aiding Ukraine, I don't think they'd endanger themselves over the country. Ukraine would be nice as an ally/member but it don't really affect them as much if it gets occupied.

WW3 is more likely to start over the Pacific, if China ever moves to invade Taiwan. US can ignore Ukraine falling - it cannot ignore Taiwan. That loss would heavily affect its power projection in Asia and puts Hawaii and the West Coast in danger.

Let's hope that he doesn't, it would be a disaster.  I read an article today that Putin threatened Finland and Sweden if they decide to enter NATO. On the one hand, the two mentioned countries might be afraid of a Russian invasion, since they don't belong to NATO and chances are, no one will help them in case of an attack. On the other hand, Putin is now threatening them if they do join, looks like a double edged sword, however, I doubt that Putin would want to endanger causing another war, this time with NATO.

Sad reality is that that US has been provoking Russia for quite a long time now and Ukraine being small and obedient as it is got used and taken advantage of by the US and NATO. If you read a but about history, you would understand that Ukraine should he close to the heart of Russia since it is its origin having almost the same everything like language and more. Russia has been pushed too far that it finally reached to point of no return. now nothing can be done to stop this except good negotiations that would favor Russia because at this point, if the US does anything more, either it won't do any help or make things even worse and may escalate to another world war.

- I maybe wrong but looking at how things are, I really can't make out a better understanding that would make me believe otherwise.

No, you have to confront the evil.  That is the only way forward.

Sooner or later Soviets will lose the WW III that they have started.

Read Putin's papers to understand this mad man.  Hitler 2.0 if you ask me.

I read the Mein Kampf cover to cover, and I read Putin's papers.  The similarities are eerie.

Shame and insecurities combined with the guilt of not being able to help his 'Volk' what is driving him to rebuild the Soviet empire.

He wants to think that he is the savior of the pre-1917 Russian Empire, but the sad reality is that he is just a mad Soviet "apparatchik".

This is a big simplification of the situation. Why would the US be the focus and how could it be achieved? There is not much here that can hurt the US, they can only win in this whatever the outcome is because they are not directly at threat and there is no conflict at their doors. So no, in short, a barrier between Moscow and NATO and Ukraine's natural oil supplies (found in 2012) are the target of this, not the US. So no need to divert attention from the actual causes of this conflict. Russia is doing the same it did in Georgia in 2008.

But this is bad both Ukrainians and Russians have their bad sides, it was agreed they won't permit the US set up a military base in Ukraine all of a sudden they want to halt the agreement.
I see this is their main issue, Russians although have taken this too far.
I care for humanity and this should stop

[Masplanc]

I don't think this is ww lll because US is not fully involved in the fight and US is not the cause of the fight, it is just fight between Ukraine and Russia and am sure its not going to last long. The fight is far from ww lll

Yes you are right, I also don't think that this is the beginning of world war 3. And also, i think that they are not stupid enough to kill hundreds of millions of people using their nuclear bombs. This is just an ordinary cold war and will be over in the near future.

if russia is really kicked out of SWIFT, I'm afraid world war III will happen, money talks in war.

From what I have heard, they have been kicked out of the swift system but only partially:

"The disconnection from SWIFT announced by the West on Saturday is partial, leaving Europe and the United States room to escalate penalties later."

One must think that Europe continues to buy gas from the Russian company Gazprom as if nothing happened:

"Three days after Russia invaded Ukraine, and after sweeping sanctions were levelled against Vladimir Putin's regime, Europe's appetite for Russian gas shows no sign of diminishing.

On Sunday morning, Gazprom, the Kremlin-controlled energy giant, said gas exports from Russia to Europe via Ukraine were proceeding just as expected.

On Friday, figures from Ukraine's grid operator showed that European imports of Russian gas through Ukraine jumped by nearly 40% on Thursday, the day the invasion began, according to Bloomberg.

Oil and gas have so far been exempted from Western sanctions on Russia."

[passwordnow]

Now that Ukraine has signed and requested to be part of European Union, I don't know what's going to be next with Russia's move. Russia got Belarus on his side while Ukraine is now receiving the aide and help that they're asking before.
AFAIK, there's still another round for the peace talks that shall happen within the next days. I hope that 2nd round of the talk will result in a fair and peaceful result to end this war.
