{Sigh}…Han Solo. 😍
Oh, wait…what?
Kiryandil’s pic is of Greedo, not Sleestak. Maybe they’re cousins ?
Oops, just realized you were thinking about a young Harrison Ford. Flew right over my head. I am male, so... :-P
Oddly enough, in this war in which Ukraine has “no chance”, the Ukrainians have won a number of impressive victories.
Moreover the Russians haven’t had the initiative in over a year, and certainly cannot end it through offensive operations. Which in theory they should be able to. But theory doesnt stand alone. War is empirical, because it depends on a huge mass of real-world factors that theories cannot account for - much like global warming climate models.
At the moment the Russians seem to be barely hanging on.
And they killed Yevgeny Prigozhin, their most effective commander in the battlefield.
To look at another level, your assertions are actually quite unversal.
You are denying any nation, ever, the right to defend itself from invasion, as everything you say is true about such a scenario in any major war.
Thats a big ask. That, historically, has never been convincing absent a clear defeat that destroyed all the means of defense. And only extreme pacifists would have asserted it - as Gandhi did, famously.
The rest of your post is in the same spirit of absurdity.
And so was Han Solo. And Indiana Jones. And Detective John Book in “Witness”…and that guy in “American Graffiti”…The eye candy of my youth. LOL
Then at some point, he got a perm, an earring and took up with Calista Flockhart, but he was dreamy before that.
Perfect...tears!
True. And, it seems, his field commander and senior staff.
Putin gets to call the shots, much like Hitler did for the Nazis. So it depends on how smart he is. Seems like the Russians have recovered in 2023 but killing Yevgeny Prigozhin wasn’t the right move. We’ll see what happens in 2024.
I did that so we can use Greedo memes now, too.
War isn’t necessarily about continually taking territory or Unconditional Surrender ‘winning’.
Putin is more than satisfied to have liberated the areas he already controls; populations that were always against the Zelensky bathhouse regime.
Just like before the war, he enjoys watching the depleted, empty husk of NATO step on its own dick every week and expose itself as the criminal front that it is.
Say what?
I read that as Russian propaganda.
To be fair, there's a lot of propaganda on both sides. It's hard to know the truth of what's happening in the Russo-Ukrainian war.
After the invasion, the Russians have been on the defensive. Except for Yevgeny Prigozhin, the only Russian commander who’ve been able to go on an offensive in Ukraine.
So you’re in Spain, huh ? You don’t have far to go to join up and fight for Zelensky’s dictatorship. What’s keeping you ?
Ally McBeal. Yeah. She was never going to be on my list of top lookers in Hollyweird. No accounting for taste.
Well, at least he didn’t end up with the ill-fated Anne Heche. =8-0>
There you go.
