Is it coincidence that they are now trying to keep tabs on this equipment when Americans, some even on this forum, joke about wanting to go buy some of this equipment from the Ukraine?

There doesn't appear there's a lot of solid military decisions being made by anyone involved in this cluster-fuck.
"Shaping the battlespace" to possibly get WWIII (AKA - nuclear armageddon) is moronic - and both "sides" are playing.
There's only one way not to lose..."You can not lose, if you do not play."

The problem with the Ukraine conflict is that it is business as usual for the Pentagon's old timers and those cold warriors that are part of the millitary-industrial complex...a proxy war with Russia. The bigger problem: To Russia, it is NOT a proxy war.

So do you guys see more similarities with 2022 being more like 1914 or 1939?

1939 for sure. Little things as well as lager things. But, all on its own as well.
WW2:
The major causes of World War II were numerous. They include the impact of the Treaty of Versailles following WWI, the worldwide economic depression, failure of appeasement, the rise of militarism in Germany and Japan, and the failure of the League of Nations.
Some of this is true today, a lot of it is. Change a few names and words around and we are there.
I see this story, which we were already aware of.

You'll have give it a little time to fester.
I think it's more like 1914. All belligerents seem to be unaware of just how quickly this could turn into a disaster.
I thought about this as well, I just saw the comparison between now and 1917 too far off. Some similar...
I had a link on the previous page from Yahoo stating the same story. Nothing official from .gov or .mil but it makes sense

I think it's more likely than not there are the secret squirrel types running around there. CIA operators, green berets, delta, seals, combat controllers, marsoc etc...
I'm sure in very specialized teams and small numbers but no doubt they are unofficially on the ground
Some of the same shit that was done prior to the last invasion of Iraq. I knew a couple of guys that were really first in that area of operations.
I can see paralells between the lead up to ww1 and WW2. That's why I just posted the question.
Ww1 exploded very quickly. There were all the colonial aspects and underlying tensions already established. It just took a random quasi important guy to get assassinated to get the party started. There are similarities here but also many from 1939.
I feel that perhaps the current world tensions are just unresolved from WW2. For those who don't know look up operation paperclip you might be surprised at what you find out. We brought on a lot of high ranking Nazis into critical positions of government. Many in the US and UK wanted to join Germany and go fight Russia in 1945. Churchill even had the operational plan name operation mincemeat.

Despite what you may have read, the meet up in Berlin was a tense one.
From primary sources that were there, there was several incidences of Russia snipers shooting at U.S. troops getting too close to the line. I think just pot shots, no confirmed kills.
Also, purposely buried by the west, a u.s. soldier went to the wrong bar and was gunned down by Russian mps.
I would say this is a continuation. Ww2 ended, but ww3 started a millisecond later.
BTW, if anyone was paying attention we were already in a shadow war with Russia in Syria.
Reuters: Russia is considering the response to UK blowing up Nord Stream.
Russia revealed on Saturday that Britain is responsible.
Obviously the US Govt was involved. Britain would never strike Russia and a NATO partner without approval from the boss.
How will Russia retaliate?

What can they do, without triggering article 5?
No where does it say that other nations HAVE to fight in a war or a retaliation attack.
Collective defence and Article 5
The principle of collective defence is at the very heart of NATO’s founding treaty. It remains a unique and enduring principle that binds its members together, committing them to protect each other and setting a spirit of solidarity within the Alliance.
After we were attacked on 9/11, not all joined in the fight. Many in NATO did say bad things against terrorists...
By invoking Article 5, NATO members showed their solidarity toward the United States and condemned, in the strongest possible way, the terrorist attacks against the United States.

Meet up was on Elbe river, not in Berlin. Berlin was captured by the Red Army entirely. American, British and French forces were allowed in after the end of war in Europe in accordance to prior agreement.

Global economies haven't collapsed just yet.
It took years after the 1929 crash before WWII got going.
We might have a little while longer before Armageddon gets into full swing.
But it certainly does look like we're laying the foundation doesn't it.
Haven't seen it discussed here yet...
But apparently Liz Truss's phone was hacked. That's fairly public information and perhaps this is one of the reasons she abruptly resigned.
Of great importance is she is alleged to have texted Anthony blinken "it's done" within 1 minute of the pressure dropping on the Nord stream pipeline before any public acknowledgement.

This story is picking up volume outside of western media. It's being totally ignored on western media. Take from that what you want

Moscow Wants Answers over Truss' Message to Blinken Moments after Nord Stream Blasts - Other Media news - Tasnim News Agency
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova demanded answers regarding the mysterious “It’s done” iPhone message allegedly sent by UK’s then-prime minister Liz Truss to the US secretary of state moments after the sabotage attacks against the Nord Stream network.
