What’s next?
Basically, the war is lost.
If you look at all of the objectives that Putin set for the war, all of them have failed. All of them. So, continuing the war is the only way for Putin to stay in power. He wants to create extra chaos in the free world hoping that a new window will open for him. It’s really just a protracted agony. It is cynical and stupid, but Putin is willing to put thousands of civilians into graves in the months to come before the whole of Ukraine is liberated, if that will allow him to maintain power...
Putin has never dealt with situations like this one. This crisis is different for him.
Putin’s been lucky that he has always been able to escape. His opponents always folded their cards instead of calling his bluff. I think we’re now at the point in history where even the very mediocre leadership of the free world realized that we had no other choice but to call Putin’s bluff.
I think that Putin realizes his tricks won’t work as they did before. That’s why we aren’t hearing the same bold threats, the brazen threats, from Putin’s generals or Putin’s entourage who were formally saying “we will use whatever weapons,” etc. They seem to be finding a middle ground: Not to drop threats all together, because they understand that If NATO is dragged in, then it would be a disaster for them.

And you speak of intelligence? There were plenty of men during WW2 that stepped away from positions of authority and went to fight, because they knew there were others that could fill their shoes.
I don’t see Zee as a leader, I only see him as a puppet.
Actually, there is slightly more press ‘freedom’ in Russia than Ukraine.
What country is considered even more corrupt than Russia? One guess. Here’s a hint. That country is supported by the SOBs of the WEF and, spent millions hiring ‘Big Guy’s son for his ‘expertise’. (Perhaps his expertise in kiddie sex? That seems to Hunter’s only expertise.
We, the West, should be supporting any tyrant. Not Putin, not Zelenskyy, not XiJinBiden, not True-dolt.
“Actually, there is slightly more press ‘freedom’ in Russia than Ukraine.”
In peacetime? I think not.
“What country is considered even more corrupt than Russia?”
Considered by whom is the operative question. If you mean “considered by Russian partisans” then I don’t really care.
Of course to you, Ukraine must be the example of how a country SHOULD operate! So which name do you go by, K(louse) or Hunter?
How much time did Churchill spend at the front?

How much time did Eisenhower spend at the front?

“Of course to you, Ukraine must be the example of how a country SHOULD operate!”
Not really, but they’re not ruled by a KGB commie who appointed himself dictator for life and jails people for speech and political opposition even in peacetime, so they are doing better than Russia, that’s a certainty.
And you speak of intelligence? There were plenty of men during WW2 that stepped away from positions of authority and went to fight, because they knew there were others that could fill their shoes.Unless you can show FDR fighting at the front-line then you are a nut.
You are a nut.
Churchill was a WW1 war veteran. Ike had requested to go to Europe during Ww1, but moved around stateside.
God raises up leaders and puts down leaders. The ways he does this is of course beyond our understanding.
I just marvel at the admiration given to zeepuppet.
After the Gallipoli debacle, Churchill served on the Western Front.
I simply say: “If zeepuppet wanted to fight, he’d be at the front fighting”....
... well... wouldn’t he? I’m not telling or even asking him to go to the front; just making an observation. If you really wanted to fight, they would let you, right?
Zelenskyy stayed in Kyiv to fight as Leader of the country that people elected him for.
Your insistence that he be in the front line is because you are a crazy bloodthirsty warmongering holier-than-than fake Christian Putin Stooge.
Only you haven’t noticed that the Russians ran away from Kyiv not Zelenskyy.
I said: “IF” he wanted to...
Putin could too, IF he wanted to (but he’s about 25 yrs older, and would probably have to settled for manning a motorized or stationary vehicle).
I was surprised to see that the following opinion was allowed on Newsweak:
https://www.newsweek.com/zelensky-narrative-shifting-opinion-1731875
BTW, the title of your Putin Stooge link:
The Zelensky Narrative is Shifting | Opinion
If you believe the scriptures, you know that God has put these leaders where they are for judgment purposes. If he wanted putin (who may be a puppet of a global consortium) gone, he would be gone. Same with zeepuppet (who is known to be a globalist puppet).
You are saying God empowered Hitler for the holocaust.
Do you like Jews as much as you do Free Ukrainians?
If the newsweak opinion is all lies, just say so.
I am not reading that whole Putin Stooge opinion crap.
Take a look at recent results on the battlefield.
I don’t admire Zelenski. He’s as much a thug as Putin, just on a smaller scale.
We should butt the hell out of this. It’s none of our business.

**You are saying God empowered Hitler for the holocaust.**
Why stop there? What about Mao? Stalin? the (apparently Pope approved) Inquisition, etc?
While God was sparing baby Moses from Pharaoh’s decree, how many Hebrew males perished?
Your argument is with the Almighty. He prefers that all come to repentance, rather than perish. God hates sin. He sees the big picture, for instance: how wicked an entire nation is and has been.
**Do you like Jews as much as you do Free Ukrainians?**
