Seems like another Vietnam war type scenario starting up again, which was replayed in Afghanistan, Iraq and now with ISIS. Economic suicide for USA. The cost of the Vietnam war started the debt problem with USA, and forced them to get rid of the gold standard. The various other conflicts that USA is involved in has caused their debt to double in the last 10 years.
Cost of arming groups like ISIS is cheap, cost of fighting them is expensive.
Washington is considering whether to send arms to help the Ukraine government against pro-Russian rebels. The re-think follows recent gains by the separatists who have re-ignited the war in the east.
But the administration is split and there is a risk of the conflict turning into a proxy war between the US and Russia.
