“So interesting to compare”
IMO, THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM OF THE AMERICAN COLONIES AND THE NATION OF UKRAINE IS MORE INTERESTING
Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death
March 23, 1775
By Patrick Henry
“It is iUkrainen vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!”
No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the house. But DIFFERENT men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do opinions of a character very OPPOSITE to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely and without reserve.”
PRAY FOR PUTIN TO STOP this invasion and return troops to Russia. Amen

Yes. Regardless of how you feel about Putin and Ukraine, the intelligent questions from the Russian media, and Putin’s very intelligent, broad-ranging answers, are just stunning compared to our mostly-clueless, completely biased media, and our muttering, stuttering “President” (on those rare occasions when he even takes a question).

Ukrainian Azov neo Nazi's are losing the war.
The head of the Ukrainian military says he does not have the resources he needs to win, and that NATO nations don't have the resources to give him.
https://www.economist.com/zaluzhny-transcriptDecember 15 interview with General Zaluzhny, according to The Economist.
Interview hi-lights below. Zaluzhny says Russia is preparing a big offensive and then describes problems getting what the Ukraine needs for the 'heavier battles' to come.

"Our second strategic task is to get ready for this war which can happen in February. To be able to wage a war with fresh forces and reserves. Our troops are all tied up in battles now, they are bleeding. They are bleeding and are being held together solely by courage, heroism and the ability of their commanders to keep the situation under control. "

"I can calculate, based on the task at hand, what kind of resource is needed to build combat capability.
We are talking about the scale of World War One…that is what Antony Radakin [Britain’s top soldier] told me. When I told him that the British Army fired a million shells in World War One, I was told, “We will lose Europe. We will have nothing to live on if you fire that many shells.” When they say, “You get 50,000 shells”, the people who count the money faint. The biggest problem is that they really don’t have it.
With this kind of resources I can’t conduct new big operations, even though we are working on one right now. It is on the way, but you don’t see it yet. We use a lot fewer shells.
I know that I can beat this enemy. But I need resources. I need 300 tanks, 600-700 IFVs, 500 Howitzers. Then, I think it is completely realistic to get to the lines of February 23rd. But I can’t do it with two brigades. I get what I get, but it is less than what I need. It is not yet time to appeal to Ukrainian soldiers in the way that Mannerheim appealed to Finnish soldiers. We can and should take a lot more territory."

That’s right… figuratively wrap a foreign despot in the goodness of the American spirit and the mantle of God. But he’s still a despot despite your prayers and mischaracterizations. He’ll monstrously continue to commit atrocities and military attacks and blame them on his enemies. Your “prayers” can’t change that reality.

Oil can be sold at a capped price to countries willing to supply assignable base rights to boot.
Biden need not be informed of the base deals.
Every Third World country needs cheap oil.

Have you ever heard an interview with Putin?
He talks like this off the cuff.

Nevertheless, those who oppose us assume that these systems are defensive weapons. All right. We will just keep that in mind, and there is always an antidote.
An antidote to a defensive system is an offensive system
We can see what they have in mind. Short war is an illusion. Putin needs to bring his invasion home.
