@Badger_IV. No. I suspect this mess is just getting started. You see the state Myanmar is in? Syria is likely heading the same way.

@A_annoying_rodent They got nato to blame, and as for syria everyone is losing it. Or did you think the rebels are liberal freedom fighters lol? They literally used to be with Al-Qaeda.

If you think this is the end, you know nothing of Syria...

@RedLancerMoto More like talks like someone with a different view from you. Imagine that, real diversity! I forgot humans weren't allowed to have that.

@Waludka So is Gaddafi, but Libya is still a mess. Syria's war involves literally dozens of factions, so this is hardly gonna end well

@mantheman11 More like taken over by a different warlord.

@randomuser5443 Well that failed. Not that I expect you'll admit it.

And in the end all of you are gonna be angry when they finally turn the big boom option to reassert their power. They're not gonna be interested in any negotiations on that program now.

@User-jr7vf Same reason nato left libya. It's a mess that no one wants to get entangled in. As soon as nato saw that, they turned around and left it to its own devices. Same reason china doesn't get involved in Myanmar as well. These things are traps, so you just don't let yourself fall into said trap.

@andreg4575 In fact you're free to do that. Offer Ukr membership, but have north america leave it in exchange. See how well that goes down, even with Ukr themselves.

@andreg4575 In fact make an entire pan european alliance if you want, even with the uk. It still isn't the same. Nothing about this is about europe, cos europe matters little to anyone. This is about the us. Always has been, always will be.

@ericdaoust391 And note that they don't get along with each other...

@andreg4575 There won't. You think Ru is concerned by any of those nations? Nope. This about the us. If not nato, then anything that may be there won't include the us. That's the big issue, that it brings the us close to them, just as Cuba was for the us.

@andreg4575 Indeed it'll likely fall in on itself if that happened. Those countries don't get alone with france and germany either, they like nato cos of america. If us wasn't in charge, it'll all fall into fractious infighting as they chafe as the idea of having to humor the big europeans. This suits Ru fine, as it'll be back to the good old days prior to the nineteenth century. They're used to playing politics in europe.

@Waludka Also this was not the longest civil war. Not even close. So your comment is doubly wrong.

@tauceti8060 Yeah that's not happening. Not only do they have their own differences, they also have different backers with their differences with each other. The best case scenario is something like in Lebanon, and we've seen how well that turned out.

@User-jr7vf I suspect it'll soon look very bright, just not in the way that phrase is usually used. Brighter than the sun in fact...

@andreg4575 In fact nato will collapse on itself if that happened. Those countries don't get along with france or germany, they like nato cos of america. If america wasn't in charge, it'll all fall into fractious infighting as they chafe as the idea of having to humor france and germany.

@gazpachopolice7211 Just usa actually. Only issue with nato is that the us is in it.

@gazpachopolice7211 Why not? It's a dumb non-argument at the best of times.

@c3caine The leader leaving doesn't mean anything is over. Indeed the mess is just getting started...

@jaredjosephsongheng372 Saying it twice doesn't help. Try breaking it up into several comments. That sometimes confuses the algo they use to delete.

@Mygg_Jeager Myanmar isn't a people's resistance, that's just a romantic view of it. The civil war there goes back over half a century, the ousted govt. just joined it. It's a whole bunch of inter-ethnic separatist movements, just as this will likely be. In fact that was why aung san didn't bother fighting the military so much when she was in power - she had bigger priorities.

@Z4r4kiKenpachi The royal navy is far from the strongest navy lol. Not even close

@DemonZest The UN is warning of literally 1.5 million displaced. Seems many of those civilians disagree with you. Assad was an Alawite - he was good for some civilians, bad for others. These rebels are among those others, and so this turn of events will similarly be good for some civilians (theirs) and bad for others. And that's assuming they're in control, which they won't be. There's literally dozens of other groups for them to contend with.

@wingeditz41 These aren't liberals fighting for democracy. They literally used to be with Al Qaeda. Only Turkey gains from this.

@mantheman11 No. It was simply taken over by a different warlord. There's nothing liberating about any of these people
