So you’re genuinely advocating breaking international law?

No, I just believe that the EU will break the law and attack, like members already did in Libya and Iraq.

I can also say that I was not the one talking about fantasies.

Edit and yes, there is a need to wait for Ukraine EU membership

Is there a reason for that? UN article 51 seems to allow support of other countries if they are attacked.

Too simple for an explanation, they are not stupid.

Ukraine soldiers are trained for 3 months. There can't be much infrastructure needed for an attack since the battle is on enemy territory when it starts.

Also, surely you’re aware that wars of aggression are banned in international law?

Iraq, Libya and others. At worst we call it a special military operation in support of Ukraine.

That’s why we need to get Ukraine to the EU, so that then it’s not a war of aggression, but honoring the mutual defense clause.

I guess there is no need to wait for EU membership to help a country in need.

Oh and, in which country’s military forces would you be participating in this attack fantasy?

None. After these comments at most they will use me for medical support.

So the laws won't protect the children. Then why do those laws exist?

That's why the new weapons are needed, to prepare for an attack.

Why else would Europe need those weapons? Russia has problems fighting Ukraine. How could they fight Europe?

Btw, I say we because any serious war will use the entire population, like Ukraine.

A European attack is prevented by critical voices from within Europe. If those voices are removed we will attack despite the threat of nuclear bombs.

By presenting an arbitrary other motivation, which implies that there is no obvious motivation.

Yet why does my reasoning not make sense? We fought in Libya. Everybody hates Russia and would be eager to fight if Russia didn't have nuclear bombs. Remove the critical voices and we are ready to go.

True if you narrow down the in-group enough and are part of it.

Are there other headlines right now that receive less airtime while this appointment is discussed?
