Ukraine is losing. It’s clear to people with open eyes.

Throwing money at Ukraine is foolish. The end result will never be good, but you’ll still be out billions of dollars. Time to fold the hand.

“Ukraine is losing. It’s clear to people with open eyes.”

Could have fooled me. What I am seeing is lots of nations with grudges against Russia going way back, sending their war tech to massively harm Russia.

“U.K. Defense Ministry estimates that more than 200,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or wounded since the start of the invasion.”

“Russia has likely lost more than 2,000 tanks in its war in Ukraine, more than half of its operational tank fleet, according to estimates released Wednesday from the International Institute for Strategic Studies.”

“A total of 18 Russian warships and other vessels have been destroyed by the Ukrainian military since the war began”
— Jerusalem Post

“The Kremlin has written off 15% of its best Sukhoi Su-34 strike fighters and no less than a quarter of its top attack helicopters, the Kamov Ka-52s.

In other words, if this is losing, then losing doesn’t look so bad.

Shoulda mucked it when Putin went all in. Re-raising with bottom pair is not a good move.
