As an employee of a neutral newspaper Washington Post, I would just like to loudly say that WE ARE PROFITING FROM THIS WAR, THAT IS WHY THIS WAR IS GOOD.

    Sure it's been worth it, the US has weakened Russia at a relatively low cost (other than for the Ukrainians).

      Have they really though? Can you really "weaken" a nuclear power?

      Embarrass, yes. Cause a loss of prestige? Of course, but they're still a nuclear power and that's never going to change.

      Even after the collapse of the Soviet Union, in the 90s they still had a seat at the table in the UN security council and had a say in their sphere of influence. They still had a sphere of influence.
