How would the USA feel if mexico joined forces with the Russians?
Make peace you fools!
Have you considered maybe there's a reason NATO has had a steady stream of countries wanting to join since it's inception while Russia is on its 3rd anti-NATO alliance and this one is shrinking like the others did? Incidentally, a large number of NATO's members today comprise nations that used to be part of Russia's anti-NATO alliances, and some of them are the most vocal about standing up to Russia.
Georgia first approached NATO before it even left Russia's anti-NATO alliance because they were scared of what Russia was going to do to them and the demands it had placed on them as a member of the "alliance", at which point Russia invaded and engaged in genocide under the pretense of protecting two republics which had declared themselves to be autonomous. Sound familiar? Weird how that keeps happening. Kind of like how people who disagree with Putin are really bad at falling out of windows.
Meanwhile, when Mexico announced they wanted to leave their defense agreement with the US in 2002 because they didn't want to get pulled into Iraq, the US maintained normalized relations and even helped with the process to leave which was formalized 2 years later as required by the agreement. To this day, the US still sends military aid in the form of money and equipment to Mexico.
Russia runs it's military alliances like a mob runs a protection racket. There's a reason NATO is growing to swallow up former Warsaw Pact and former CSTO states, and why none of the CSTO states are in Ukraine helping Russia. Heck, last year, a Russian politician threatened to bomb a member of Russia's anti-NATO alliance, and China put them in their place. China vowed to defend a state it has no defense alliance with from Russia, whom that state does have a defense alliance with. That should sound insane to you.
Do you really think Russia-Ukraine relations are anything like US-Mexico relations? Do you really not see why this comparison is idiotic? The US treats countries it's unfriendly with (Cuba) better than Russia treats it's closest allies.
Resist you fool!
You don't think the largest military in the world could take over itty bitty Taiwan because it may be difficult?
Make peace you fools!
NATO has the largest military in the world at over twice the size of China's. China has only one military alliance and it's worth North Korea. The size of the Sino-North Korean Treaty of Friendship, Co-operation, and Mutual Assistance is about 3.2 million all ranks, NATO is almost 6 million. It could nuke Taiwan, killing everyone and making it uninhabitable, but that's about the only victory it can achieve there currently.
To attack Taiwan, China needs to attack US naval forces. That triggers NATO article 5. It also triggers other American defense agreements, like the Rio Pact which pulls in most of South America, ANZUS, the Five Power Defense agreements, and bilateral mutual defense agreements. So China and North Korea vs Taiwan, North America (excluding Mexico), South America (excluding Ecuador and Bolivia), all of Europe (except Ireland, Switzerland, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia), Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, the Philippines, Korea, and Japan. So 3.3 million at most vs more than 10 million.
It's really not "itty bitty Taiwan", is it? It's "enormous ginormous alliance".
Resist you fool!
Russia already has the Donbas. Its too late now that every country bordering Russia are joining NATO. The only option the USA has given Putin is a complete massacre of the Ukrainian army as the USA gives them a false hope that they can actually win. The USA is in a conundrum. If they take out Putin, they'll have to take care of Xi too.
Make peace you fools!
The US already had Afghanistan and Iraq. How did that work out for them?
On H-Hour of D-Day Russia outnumbered Ukraine by a massive margin. They had twice the land forces and five times the air force. Yet Russia doesn't even have air superiority after more than a year. For comparison, in Iraq, the US had air superiority in a few minutes and air supremacy in a few hours, and had completed the invasion, meaning wholesale destruction of all opposing military forces and occupation of all major urban areas, airports, and military installations, within 43 days. Meanwhile it's been 542 days and Russia occupies barely more than it had occupied 543 days ago. The largest invasion in history only lasted 336 days, and the numbers there were far more even then this.
Given how badly the invasion went, do you really think the occupation is going to succeed?
There is no conundrum.
Resist you fool!
