We deal with problems.
But we don't claim territory.
Putin was planning on establishing an independent government in Donbass when he was done, right ? And if they voted to re-join Ukraine, he'd let them, right ?
Mexico would disagree and yes we also invade countries that are far away and don't pose any threat to us.

What Mexican territory have we conquered lately?
We bought most of what we have that used to be Mexico.
Except Texas, but we didn't exactly conquer that.
Basically, imperialism is a no go since WWII.
Very few nations have tried it at all.
Saddam tried it, and got his ass kicked by the entire planet.
Putin should have gotten the same treatment the first time he tried to grab one of his neighbors.
Would have saved millions of lives.

If that's what it takes.
If your neighbors keep putting bullets through the wall of your house, how many of your kids need to be killed before you stop playing nice ?

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he is on a "historic and spiritual mission" and feels "very" attached to the vision of so-called ‘Greater Israel’, which includes territories earmarked for the Palestinian state and potentially parts of present-day Jordan and Egypt.
Netanyahu and Israeli officials have made clear their intention of annexing and taking over all of what remains of historic Palestine. Netanyahu has previously shown maps at the UN and in presentations that show the occupied West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Gaza entirely absorbed into Israel.
He has also reiterated his intention to carry out a plan to totally take over Gaza and forcibly expel Palestinians from the Strip. His cabinet’s Gaza City invasion proposal is seemingly aimed at moving into the final stages of that plan, with Netanyahu mobilizing his government behind it.

With Egypt still Egypt, Jordan still Jordan, and Saudi Arabia still Saudi Arabia.
Only thing missing is Palestine. And since there has *never* been a nation of Palestine there ever, I don't think you can even call it missing.
Imagine if the Sinaloa cartel declared that mexican state independent, and spend 50 years lobbing rockets into Mexico. Then Mexico decided enough was enough and just killed them all.
That's what this is like.

IDF soldier with greater Isreal patch, take a look at the map.
Proposed inclusion of areas beyond the borders of the Mandate
Some on the Israeli far right advocate for a “Greater Israel” that includes territories outside the historical Palestinian Mandate. Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has suggested that Israel is destined to expand to include Jordan, and even beyond, to parts of Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt and even Iraq. On Sunday, March 19, 2023, Smotrich gave a speech in Paris while standing at a podium that featured a map of Israel including Jordan and the occupied West Bank. During the speech he claimed that Palestinian people were “an invention.”[34] In a documentary film by Arte in 2024, Smotrich said “it is written that the future of Jerusalem is to expand to Damascus.”[35][36] This view has support in some parts of Israeli society. Israel’s incursions into Jordan and Syria has intensified international concerns that some actors in Israel are pursuing expansion into other countries.[37]

The difference is the groups in Palestine that post maps without any Isreal at all, are the ones running the place.
If you read the "greater Isreal" wiki that *you* linked, it's quite clear that it *doesn't* include any areas that are currently claimed by Jordan *or* Egypt.

Anyone following the story of a bunch of Russian drones crossing into Poland, and Poland/nato shooting some down?
This has potential for escalations. Worth keeping an eye on. The tension is increasing not decreasing

Heard about it, but doesn't make a lot of sense,my radar is on.
Anything is possible. Polish military did fight in this conflict and participated in Kursk invasion, I doubt Russia will just let this go. All missiles that attack Russian cities go through Poland. Russia will deal with this sooner or later.
NATO's war against Russia, using Ukraine to hide direct involvement, has to stop.

How exactly would Russia "deal with this" ?
I can't imagine a response that wouldn't end very badly for them.
Plausible deniability works both ways.
