No, you clearly don't. Not a real one. It's "I do what I like because it's convenient for me." Any moral system worth anything actually causes you problems.
No, I just don't let lolbertarian morals dictate what I find to be a morally acceptable situation or outcome, nor allow naive compassion to cloud my eyes about people who want most everyone not under their banner dead.
You just don't like that your NAP morals are not being treated as the gold standard, and your foolishness regarding military affairs and international politics as not treated as the norm.
If people like you and others hadn't been tut-tutting at Israel for decades anytime they try to protect themselves from Hamas and friends, maybe Israel wouldn't have endured Oct 7th and dealt with Hamas and friends long before now.
Please. They would just nuke the Kurils if it even looked like they might lose. What incentive would they have to not just nuke the Kurils? It's their own land, no one is actually going to condemn them harshly for nuking their own land, and Russia comes off as a lot scarier.
The fallout that would fall on North Korea, China, and their own people in near the NK/CCP/Russia border area is why the nukes would not be used, and because losing the Kuril's does not endanger the core of the Russian nation around Moscow and St. Petersberg.
And the Kuril's are not Russian land, they are Japanese territory that Russia has illegally occupied; but then again, you knowm that but don't want to admit it.
Or more likely, Russia just retaliates by chucking non-nuke rockets at Mainland Japan, killing thousands of Japanese citizens, and everyone in the world would be fine with this, because Japan FAFO'd.
Russia launching conventional rockets at Japan would require them to divert forces and ammo away from hitting Ukraine, and unlike Ukraine, Russia has no land connection to Japan it can push troops through, and Japan has far more sea-lift capacity than Russia does in the Far East. Not to mention hitting Japanese Home Island over Japan liberating the Kuril's risks the US responding due to the defense treaty with Japan.
As well, if Japan simply says that all Russian forces must leave the Kurils in 24 hours, and after that Japan is going to start wrecking their military hardware that is still on their island, and only when that is all dealt with will Japnese troops physically liberate the island.
Seriously, genius idea: let's push the crazed dictator with nukes even further into a corner by harnessing a military with no desire to actually have an offensive fight and no capacity for an invasion.
Japan has Marines who are trained specifically to retake outlying islands from foreign occupiers, due to the CCP's actions in the South China Sea and around Taiwan, and the JSDF has plenty of ability hit shit in the Kuril's with stand-off weapons before any Japanese troops liberate the island on foot.
As for me having no arguments, that's simply not true. I had arguments, you decided "WAH, I don't like it when Abhorsen talks about basic moral theory, such as responsibility for an action, because I have no morals."
No, you have morals as dictated by the NAP and AnCap ideology, which you try to foist onto the rest of us and judge the rest of us by.
Where as I have morals that are dictated by preserving the US Constitution as much as possible, in protecting friends/allies from mutual enemies, and in not allowing the lies and manipulations of compassion by the Lefties and foreign powers to dictate how I view military matters.
And I notice when I actually have good, hard arguments for my position that you cannot refute, you just ignore them and keep trying to push your 'you are moralless because you don't adhere to my AnCap ideology and isolationist views' bullshit.
You've consistently failed to respond to any arguments I have with anything but "Hamas Bad, Hamas is death cult" as if everyone and their mother didn't know that, then reply to my response to that argument with "Hamas bad, Hamas is death cult". Why would I bother coming up with new arguments when you haven't even attacked my original ones?
No, I have replied with details about the tactical situation on the ground, the reasons for my views on Gaza due to wanting to minimize IDF/Jewish deaths in the ground action, and the realities on the ground with regards to how deep the Hamas indoc goes.
Where as you just keep ignoring said arguments and details to just bleat about how 'moralless' I am, then continuing to push the lie that the Kuril's are Russian land, and that most of Gaza aren't part of either Hamas or Islamic Jihad due to how they have controlled the place for years, long enough whole a generation to know nothing but Hamas rule/control.
Your ignorance of the actual state of many military matters around the world becomes very evident when you make claims about who can do what/who would respond to what with what force.
You haven't changed any of your beliefs from when you were a Dem. You've instead simply lost all morality entirely, and gone from woke to Clinton. To quote myself, because you are so boring to argue with that I can just recycle my old put downs of you in regards to you trying to chuck Ancap at me:
And you trying to claim I have no morals, simply because I do not share your morals, is you just trying to claim your morals are the only morals that matter.
Also, you forget the Dems left me when they pushed the Woke shit and I didn't go along with it. And my objection to the Dems was never about the MIC or being willing to fuck up our nations legit enemies, so your assumption that such had anything to do with me leaving the Dems is you pushing your isolationist AnCap ideals onto my past self.
And the post you picked doesn't actually help your argument, because it is from an exchange where once again you started assuming you could push your morality on me, insulting me for not hating the MIC/seeing is as 'rotten skinsuit', and pretending that just because I do not agree with your AnCap beliefs it means i have no morals.
You also made rather large assumptions about my life and mindset in the post, and have bore a grudge against me for daring to call out your AnCap BS for what it is.
