Some of this is starting to creep into our forum again, hence the reminder.
Debate the issues all you want, but please don’t make it personal. Keep it clean, above board and above belt.
Also, whether pro or con, keep the q stuff off our regular forum threads. Post it on the q thread in chat/conspiracy. But again, keep it clean, don’t make it personal, no name calling, no attacks”
Yes sir, understood.

Prime Minister of Latvia had to answer a hard question about “Russia that should be destroyed”, when he spoke in Kyiv about Ukraine and its EU plus NATO membership perspectives. See the interview of Krišjānis Kariņš.
Good gosh!
I just looked at your name, you have been a freerepublic member for only 12 days and you are telling us the law and breaking all the rules?
We’re all conservatives to varying degrees. I’m a 2A absolutist who wants to buy nukes at the dollar tree, for example.
I know the people I’m fighting with are conservatives and my American brothers, although I disagree with a bunch of their horse shit. Even then I don’t wish death or hell on them because they’re my countrymen. A fistfight in a bar maybe but I don’t wish real pain and death on them.
If I did, I’d be no better than the libs.
Remember that, y’all.
Signup date is a myth, could be 10 days or 20 years. It’s meaningless. Oh well.
But you realize, I hope, that this site has become a laughing-stock of cranked style Russians.
You’ll just ban me, since the truth hurts.
Well, I will stand by a ‘true conserv’ over a liberal, ever if they’re a jerk.
I don’t trust Trump, but that’ll get your butt beaten on here. I think he’s kinda of a weird perv imo and not a good 2nd supporter.
But I’ll take a 2nd supporter over any liberal
I actually agree with all you said just there, so we do have common ground. While he’s a great president he’s not perfect. Far from it, but a DAMN SIGHT better than our last several
Peace

Why Ukraine Counteroffensive Push Could See Putin Accept Defeat—ISW

A run of successful Ukrainian counteroffensives is “almost certainly” needed to force Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war through negotiation or military defeat, according to a new assessment.
It is “likely essential” that Kyiv has multiple, major victories against Russian forces in Ukraine for a settlement to be reached, or the Kremlin to accept their troops cannot win, the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), a U.S.-based think tank, said on Sunday.
Ukraine’s political and military chiefs have long discussed a spring counteroffensive against Russian forces. Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said on Friday that Moscow was “calculating” for this counteroffensive, with the General Staff “preparing its own solutions.”
Kyiv’s troops made sweeping gains in operations in 2022, in which they retook much of the northeastern Kharkiv region and parts of the southern Kherson area.
But Ukraine’s deputy defense minister, Hanna Maliar, said it was “good” that no one had discussed counteroffensive operations in Kharkiv before they carried them out. Writing on Facebook on Saturday, Maliar said “silence gave the military [time to win] and do their job.”
Only the president, the defense minister and the commander-in-chief have the right to disclose strategic military plans, she added.
In light of a potential counteroffensive, it would “be an appropriate moment” for Putin to see that Moscow “cannot impose its will on Ukraine by force,” the ISW said.

But the Kremlin leader “has clearly come to no such conclusion,” the think tank added.
Ukrainian forces need a series of counteroffensive victories, the ISW said, to show Moscow that Russia “cannot hope to improve the outcome of the war by continued fighting.” There is “reason to expect” Kyiv could make gains through these counteroffensives, the think tank argued.
With Western backing, Ukraine will likely need successful counteroffensive operations to “effectively freeze the conflict on their own regardless of Putin’s decisions,” the ISW said.
Over the weekend, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Kyiv’s forces cannot get counteroffensive operations underway without further Western aid.
“We do not have ammunition,” he told the Japanese newspaper, Yomiuri Shimbun.
“For us, the situation in the east is not good,” he said. “We need tanks for the de-occupation of Ukraine.”
But on Thursday, Colonel General Oleksandr Syrskyi said a counteroffensive could come “very soon.” The commander of Ukraine’s ground forces said on Telegram that Ukraine “will take advantage” of heavy Russian losses around the eastern city of Bakhmut.
The mayor of the Kharkiv city of Kupiansk, Andrii Besedin, suggested over the weekend that Kyiv’s soldiers did not yet have the military gear needed for a renewed push. Kupiansk was recaptured by Ukraine during counteroffensive operations in 2022.
He told Spanish newspaper El País on Saturday that although Ukraine’s fighters had enough equipment to defend themselves, they “don’t have what we need” for a counteroffensive.
Ivan Fedorov, Ukraine’s exiled mayor of Melitopol in the southeastern Zaporizhzhia region, said on Saturday that Russian forces in the city were spreading messages about a Ukrainian counteroffensive to “scare” residents.
“Instructions are distributed for residents: what to do in case of a counteroffensive of the Armed Forces,” he wrote on Telegram.
Newsweek has reached out to Russia’s Defense Ministry via email for comment.
You’re a damn nutjob. Nobody I know in Alberta supports Ukraine including all the Ukrainians I’ve met and talked to. Your small wee pee brain can’t comprehend this. My patience for you tards is at its end. Either go fight or shut the hell up. You’re not sending my money or my brothers to fight there. Go do it yourself, put your fight where your crap mouth is.
Ok tough guy, you going to Russia to die for Putin too? We can both go on opposite sides.
