I’m pretty sure you are replying to the wrong person/post. Nowhere did I imply we should be promoting war or any of what you implied. I simply called out the promotion of fraud and propaganda.

then YES - please take the whole f***ing country of Ukraine
Your own words. WHO is trying to "take" Ukraine? And what is he planning to do with it? By historical analogy, you are cheering on Hitler to "take" the Sudetenland.

IMO, Russia underestimated the level of intelligence gathering that NATO (US) is using to command and control the Uke military. Unless the Russkies go all in they can’t win this proxy war.

To simplify: Russians have abandoned positions around Kiev, although Ukraine is claiming it drove them out.
Ukes have pushed out from Kharkiv, about 10-15 miles or so, and have reached the Russian border in some places north of the city.
Ukes have made small pushback counterattacks in the south, and recaptured some towns along the front.
Russians are making small advances in the east, north of Donbass.
Russians have some civilian protests in southern held territories.

RE: Volodymyr , Volodymyr is that you??
Could you please address your post to the author of this piece? I’m just the poster looking for a truthful discussion.
If you’re cheering for Putin to win, just tell us straight.

My guess is that Zelensky will disappear....and live out his life on the Rhine. He’s worthless. And Ukraine is a pile of sh** since they achieved ??? independence.

He was offered something like that as early as March this year. Why didn’t he take the offer?

“To simplify: Russians have abandoned positions around Kiev, although Ukraine is claiming it drove them out.”
... Russians pulled back behind the Russian border in 36 hours.
“Ukes have pushed out from Kharkiv, about 10-15 miles or so, and have reached the Russian border in some places north of the city.”
... the regular troops were pulled to be part of the Izyum offensive and were replaced with untrained forced Ukraine conscripts who are melting away. Towns the UA enters are empty. Only holding on to the area near Belograd.
“Russians have some civilian protests in southern held territories.”
... which they are rapidly converting to a part of Russia: language, money, education, license plates, etc.

Not if they’re neoconservative international warfare zealots.
All they know is Hitler....Hitler...Hitler....Hitler.
Those boys are some of the dumbest bums around.

Ah yes, supporting a corrupt fascist regime in Russia is so much more “conservative.” 🙄

From what I gather, the really big battles have been around Izium. Russian advances have been made, but they are modest. But I wonder if Ukrainians might soon recapture Volchansk or even Kupiansk; Looking at the map, they seem like vital supply lines to Izium. A reversal in those cities looks like it could be verrrry bad for Russkies.

Ukraine has been a cancer on the American body politic for nearly 20 years. It truly metastacized under Trump. The fake Steele Dossier, impeachment, Hunter Biden's corruption, Mueller, the Vindmans, etc.. all had roots in Ukraine.
Corruption exists in every country, including the U.S., from where the corrupt politicians took advantage of a third-world country. If not for the corrupt politicians in our country, who demanded that Ukraine give kickbacks from the U.S. assistance, then, you would have very little to complain about.
In any case, the vast majority of Ukrainians have nothing to do with the corruption, and they don't deserve the vilification coming from people like you. And, Russia still had no right to invade, even if corruption existed in Ukraine.
Perhaps if we took care of our corrupt politicians before they had a chance to corrupt others, Ukraine would have been better off, and Russia would have been taking on a stronger opponent.
Nevertheless, as witnessed by what Finland just did this week, Russia is the aggressor and beating them back is of the utmost importance, not only for the Ukrainian people, but for the U.S. and the world.

There's a Ternova northeast of Kharkiv on Google maps.

And, Russia still had no right to invade, even if corruption existed in Ukraine. Did Victoria Nuland have a right to organize a coup at the Maidan? Did she and Jeffry Pyatt have a right to choose Ukraine's President? Does the CIA have a right to arm and train "nationalist" brigades whose goal is to ethnically cleanse the East? Our "leaders" in washington have contributed to the corruption and tension in Ukraine equally as much as the Russians have. All the pro-war people on this forum like to pretend present events occurred in a vacuum.

What evidence do you have that Zelensky won by fraud? He got close to 73% of the vote.
As for Putin’s “election”, it’s really a self-selection. I’ve never expected him to lose power as long as he’s aluve. It’s the same as Xi Jin Ping.

Well, glad to see you agree with me on who the corruption agents are on both sides of the Ukraine situation.
Where we part company is with the Ukrainian people, where almost all of them had nothing to do with the corruption. And we also part when it comes to the war, where Russia had no right to invade to take over a sovereign country. Ukraine has a right to exist as a free country, even if corruption exists; corruption, like I said, exists everywhere, and most of the people in the countries involved had nothing to do with the corruption. Are all Americans responsible for the corruption with the Biden family?
