It’s amazing how little Putin has reacted to the western allies shipping billions of dollars of arms to support the Ukrainians.

If anyone did that in one of our conflicts, it would be considered an act of war.

Putin realizes how weak his hand is and meekly accepts thousands of ATGMs a day crossing the border from Poland.

Well, don’t forget that both the Soviet Union and China armed North Vietnam and the VC to the teeth, and I don’t remember the U.S. declaring it an act of war by the USSR and the ChiComs.

Putin now appears to be delusional. He has lost the support of the Russian people, there is low morale throughout all levels of the Russian military and his catastrophic bad decision has badly hurt Russia. Any good he did to rehabilitate the Russian nation from nearly ninety tears of murderous, vile, debilitating communism has been negated. What passes for the political infrastructure in Russia and acts in ways not understood by the West is also disillusioned with Putin. He will soon be deposed.

He thought it was going to be a cakewalk like Crimea.

“an unprovoked war against a small and non-threatening neighbor”

Stopped reading right there. The truth is that the globalists are setting up the Ukraine to attack and destabilize Russia because Russia is not a player in their NWO game. If Ukraine was not controlled by evil forces who infiltrated it then I would agree that they were non-threatening. But that is just not the case now.

Nixon went to both Russia and China. LBJ welcomed Kosygin to New Jersey. And all the while those nations were probiding NVN with weapons in abundance and sophistication. And in the case of air defense with actual Russian engineers and operators. So we did not consider those to be acts of war.

Ukraine is more independent of international forces than is the US. Pol Pot was the really independent dude. But he was evil. So is Putin.

Imagine you are a ruthless despot who miscalculated in launching an unprovoked war against a small and non-threatening neighbor, and the military operation is going pear-shaped....

Yes.

Fat faced and stupid, is no way to go through life son.

BS. Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons based on Russia’s promise not to invade. You have everything backwards.

Pootypoot is just a little bit upset. He’ll get some kind of good news for him, about some Uke city that’s surrounded or sumthin sumthin, and he’ll be back to his usual tyrannical self. Hey, even dictators luze their composure once in a while.

“He thought it was going to be a cakewalk like Crimea.”

There has been a notable uptick in Freeper mind-reading skills these days.

Is everybody using crystal balls or remote viewing or witchcraft?

This is bizarre.

Per the article:

“this all takes place in the context of a phone call with French President Macron where Putin told him he intended to pursue the war in Ukraine until the last dog is dead”

The left routinely uses the Hegelian Dialectic argument to corral us into making the choices they want us to make.

If we don’t support Ukraine, Putin might kill them all. If we do support the Ukraine, Russia might break up and leaders will be installed that support the one world government the left wants to impose upon everybody.

In other news the Syrian war still goes in after 10 years and half a million dead. It’s tough to win a war against a people who hate you.

Sure, but we expanded the war to both Cambodia and Laos to stop the flow of weapons.

I don’t expect the Russians to do anything to us, but they even seem very worried about engaging Poland.

A nukeless, militarily disadvantaged Ukraine was on the verge of attacking Russia on its own, urged by “the globalists”. Ok.
