I think those dead bodies laying in the streets and mass graves would disagree.....
US/Nato using Ukrianian citizens to fight a war on Ukraine grounds - considered a small price to pay by US and EU leaders.
There are a lot of dead Ukes, that’s for certain. But they have sovereignty over their own country, the taking of which was the first goal of Putin but they got pushed back. Russia’s military has been handed a major blow, but yes there are a lot of dead bodies. They died fighting for their freedom and their country rather than just bending over.
LOTS.
Ukraine has never had control of their own country - they’re a debtor country and always will be. Without the US and IMF propping them up they would have fallen years ago - their corruption at all levels is astounding and their leaders fully corrupt. And this war won’t change the basic nature of the country one bit.
So that’s some kind of justification for some bigger bully of a country to invade that country in an obvious attempt at conquest & taking oil & gas rights & warm water ports? Do you even listen to yourself?
I don’t care what happens to that country - not even a little. They’ve proven the only thing their good at is fighting the next conflict they instigate because they know they’ll rebuild and have a steady stream of revenue flowing until the next one.....within or without it makes no difference. They make their money via uprisings and conflicts.
If you don’t care then post on threads where you DO care. Doing the right thing is still doing the right thing.
All these years and I didn’t know what a dyke is...
“ It’s pretty amazing what the Ukrainians are doing with cast-offs and decades-old technology”
What is really amazing is that the Russians have outsmarted NATO trained and equipped Ukes at every. turn!
Have to look into a pair.
NATO and US commanded, also.
Their headquarters is apparently in Lviv.
So you supported bent dick’s rubbing out of Serbia’s border and transferring their “Jerusalem” to muslim interlopers. Well if that’s the case than I don’t see the problem of Russis redrawing Ukraine’s borders unilaterally. But you do. Hypocrite
[What is really amazing is that the Russians have outsmarted NATO trained and equipped Ukes at every. turn!]
“The Soviet Union collapsed.”
With the US heading for that. Thanks to Biden and all the Rs in Congress pretending to be the opposition.
And Afghanistan was a disaster for the US, regardless of you changing the subject. That was our latest, “Let’s tight them over there, so we won’t have to fight them here!” fiasco.
Wounded Warriors abound. We gave 85 Billion in state of the art US military hardware to the friken taliban.
The Taliban.
The US Patriot Act was expanded to...spy on US, and a sitting R President!!! And now, the Disinformation Czar.
But hey, for Ukraine, “let’s fight the Russians over there...”, this time it will work!
He!! NO!!!!
The headline is absurd. Of course American aid can help Ukraine. Whether it can SAVE Ukraine is a different consideration.
It didn’t help that in Korea we had the enemy on the mat and pulled our punches. Ditto Vietnam.
Your Peter Zeihan video is a must see about Russian oil production and war making capacity. Unique insights I have never seen. Thanks.
