→Essay: Stavridis: Getting Pummeled in War Is a 200-Year Russian Tradition

==Essay: Stavridis: Getting Pummeled in War Is a 200-Year Russian Tradition==
This [[trolling]] [[crap]] is never qualified properly and only tells half the story (i.e, [[confirmation bias]]). For example, How did [[Russia]] become the largest land power on the [[planet]]? Or the primary source for this screed is [[James Stavridis]], and misrepresents his views.
*On March 2, 2025 the ''[[London Telegraph]]'' reported former Supreme Allied Commander [[US Navy]] Four Star Admiral [[James Stavridis]] said that since the [[Trump administration]] made it clear that '''[[Ukraine aid|aid to Kyiv]] could become a "[[geopolitical]] miscalculation of colossal proportions....We may be witnessing the last days of [[NATO]]".'''<ref>[https://archive.is/QrPQA End of Nato alliance could be ‘days away’, warns former commander], Cameron Henderson, ''[[The Telegraph]]'', 01 March 2025. www.telegraph.co.uk</ref>
*Whenever a rising power (in this case [[China]]) confronts an established power (the [[U.S.]]) over the past two thousand years, the outcome very often leads to a global conflict. This occurs despite the fact that in most cases there is no advantage to either side in launching into a [[war]].<ref>[https://time.com/5945178/sleepwalk-war-with-china/ How the U.S. Could Sleepwalk into a War with China], [[James Stavridis]] and Elliot Ackerman, ''[[TIME magazine]]'', Mar 9, 2021. </ref>
*''[[Bloomberg News]]'' op-ed: [[Stavridis]]: [https://archive.is/lRy23 NATO Should Give Trump a 2-Year Timeout] until a new administration takes office. See also [[Essay: Properly qualifying sources]].
