Is it worth pointing out that what’s happening in Ukraine is not a civil war?

It’s entirely a civil war.

It’s another one of those stupid ethnic border wars the Europeans have been having for centuries. We were well shut of those until 1917. Now we’re neck deep in the lunacy.

I thought that Democrat Roosevelt ran for reelection during ww2. Must have been some other Roosevelt.

We didn't miss an election during WWII either.

The war has been going on since 2014 after the coup of the duly elected government of Ukraine. It spawned the SEPARATIST movement in the Donbas. They wanted more autonomy from the central government. Now they have seceded from Ukraine.

Ukrainians have been fighting Ukrainans since 2014.

The Uke persecution of ethnic Russians in the now Russian oblasts, along with the lunacy of potential Uke membership in NATO, is why the Russians were forced to act. Yes, there is a civil war aspect to this. The US never missed an election during WWII when we were actually attacked.

Maybe you should watch one of your ur-a-boob videos on WWI and WWII where we held elections as did other countries during both world wars.

The War Between the State wasn’t either, truth be told.

There you go. Black is white, and girlies are boyies.

Sure.

What exactly do you call all the bombings and missiles by the Ukie government in the Donbas and killings in Odesa that go back over eight years?

I know what you call it.

Selective memory.
