      i'll try to paraphrase it more subtly without dropping names or being too direct maybe the AI wont take notice.
      As I was saying, when it comes to foreign policy decision making, there is a certain group of people that make, lets say, certain types of equipment that can be and is being used in this type of international conflicts. the monetary gain of these groups is what dictates the aforementioned policy making.
      and whether those gains are from a certain eastern European country or a local law abiding tax-paying citizen, it is irrelevant.
      so no, a certain country in the western hemisphere will not push to escalate as it poses a challenge to the aforementioned gains of the aforementioned groups

    I must say that, while I respect and admire Mearsheimer greatly, It is horrendous to hear him say at this point in time, that Biden has been cautios and care to avoid dangerous escalations in the course of this war. The truth is the opposite; every redline possible has been crossed, with total defiance and and great lack of prudence...

      Edit: I just realized he makes all these points in this video. Looks like we both commented a bit too early lol.
      He's not really dismissing it, he's just saying it's not likely, but he's clarified that as well when someone asked (paraphrasing) "if it's not likely, then why worry about it?" As he put it, you calculate risk by putting together odds and consequences. The odds may look low on paper, but the consequences would be insanely high. He's made this point several times.

      Biden and his cohorts are actually the ones we must be worried about the most
      When Kirby was asked if the West doesn't fear Russian retaliation for allowing Ukraine to hit the Russian mainland, he replied: "Nothing to worry about'
      And here Mearsheimer tells us that Biden is "very cautious". He's talking nonsense.

    I don't think Russia has any capacity to take more Ukraine territories. Why do you think Putin's condition for negotiations is to give him territories his army is unable to take? Russia will continue to use missiles and target infrastructure and civilians in Ukraine.
    On the other hand, Ukraine doesn't have capacity to liberate occupied territories.

    Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity.
    In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas.
    If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy.
    Zelensky admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements.
    Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time.
    Russia's national security was compromised once NATO began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining NATO was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns.
    20th September, 2021. Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO.
    NATO is not a defensive alliance. NATO illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter).
    We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc.
    Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster?
    Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest.
    Zelensky tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland.
    Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed.
    Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens-theirs will hide in the basements”.
    Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it.
    Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country.
    Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. 13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list.
    Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list.
    There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence).
    The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present.
    Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave.
    Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) R.I.P.
    The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims).
    The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter.
    I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion.
    I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written.
    Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.

I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 20,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God.. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967736246190 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger.
