The attack on the ruble is an act of war and will be responded to in kind. People who think otherwise don't know Russia. Putin is going to take this out on Europe. An invasion of the Baltics this Spring is all but guaranteed. Only question is does Putin march for Berlin too.

Stops the attack on the ruble by Western traders. Cant trade the ruble if they are all dead :-)

The currency attack, sanctions and oil trio is clearly on orders from the US government. This shit defies probability. Its an act of war and should be responded to in kind.

Nope, what's more likely a contagion that will sink the entire world into recession a la 1998. Brazil, Turkey, Indonesia are even more vulnerable than Russia because Vlad has $400 billion in cash and these dumps have much thinner reserves. China and India are already slowing. Idea that the US will be immune is nonsense too because all the shale companies are about to go bankrupt and you will have bond defaults here too and a lot of them.

Lol at $400 billion in "cash." If by "cash" you mean "roads to nowhere in Sochi that Putin claims he could sell if the ruble falls further," then fine. Good luck propping up the ruble by selling a fucking highway.

Lol! Let's ignore the fact that the U.S. has numerous military bases in Europe not to mention Qatar, Japan, and South Korea. And NATO more generally has bases along Russia's entire border as well as in Turkey. You're also forgetting the fact that the U.S. Air Force is far superior to any other air force in the world. The minute Putin starts marching across the Russian border U.S. bombers will blast his troops into oblivion. NATO's ground forces would be more than sufficient to clean up the mess. If the fight were on Russian soil, it would get a little more interesting. Russia has invested in one of the best anti-aircraft defenses in the world precisely because they are afraid of U.S. bombers. But if Putin were stupid enough to try to invade a NATO country, U.S. bombers would obliterate his forces long before any anti-aircraft system could be deployed.

Man, ARE Reptile sure has changed his tune. He's gone from insisting that Russia was doing great and that sanctions were having no real impact to admitting we're gaping them but making ridiculous promises about invading NATO countries this spring.

I hope this collapse of the ruble is a CIA plot, would be good to see some competence from them for a change.

Despite all the troops they've sent into the country and the mounting casualties, they're still afraid to formally declare war on Ukraine or even formally acknowledge that Russian troops have crossed the border. What makes you think they'd be so bold as to formally declare war on NATO?

Also, they're performance in Ukraine has been pathetic and far worse than even their lowest expectations. Even they understand that such an attack would be suicide for the military and the regime.
