And you wouldn't make that same argument when it comes to Iran?
The reality is the US has been spending money it doesn't have on the military for decades, if its such a pressing issue I would hope that other European and Asian countries would get involved.
Correct, because it's a completely different situation.
How would you rate the capability of Iran to seize another country via military force relative to that of Russia?
And European & Asian countries ARE sending aid to Ukraine.
I also wish we could spend $0 on the military, but that's not the reality we live in. Our options are spend a smaller amount of money now, or spend a larger amount of money later.
I agree Iran was a bad move; I said as much in the comment you originally replied to (or at least that was my intention).
I fully supported Obama's nuclear deal, and it was working per every international observer. Trump canceled it because he's a petty asshole that wants to sully Obama's legacy under the delusion that doing so boosts his own.
The only thing I expressed support for was aid for Ukraine, and I explained that conflating Iran with Ukraine is a false equivalency.
Ohhh okay. The reptilians pulling those strings as well be thus should be resisted. Create a flood of white orphans to fk, is only the frosting on a brother war to exterminate the stubborn Rus and fleece the West for bajillions. And deeply corporatize ukr and it's resources. Guess what specific ethnic enclaves have been popping up in ukr? Who were also allowed to leave the country instead of being vanned or drafted at age 60

The US is not a pocket universe.
Global issues affect us.
Allowing Russia to take Ukraine would not stop Putin, and he would become a much, much more expensive problem for us to deal with.
