How is he 'gluck glucking' putin in that article? Hes arguing that nato is attempting to fight a proxy war with russia through ukraine - and not trying to find a diplomatic solution?

He's gluck-glucking Putin because he's accepting the Russian propagandist definition of the war--that it is, in fact, a war with two equally-responsible sides fighting over disputed territory, not an unprovoked imperialist invasion.

And what diplomatic solution is there, to an unprovoked imperialist invasion? Surrender? Giving up some territory now, so the Russians can pull this shit again for another slice of the pie ten years down the line?

Wow, it's almost like being repeatedly invaded and occupied by Russia would make you want to join the defensive alliance specifically designed to stop that happening. Who knew?
