The lights should have been off in Kiev since the beginning.

Meanwhile, in Moscow, the long neglected steam/hot water universal heating pipes have already begun to freeze and rupture. Moscow will shiver again because of the inherent Russian inability to maintain any thing

Nobility won’t, serfs can’t

Russia’s greatest ally is about to take the field. General Winter. It broke Napoleon, It broke Hitler, it will break NATO. We are not ready for fighting in the cold weather. Our vaunted air power is limited in the snow. Lots of people will freeze to death in Ukraine in the next two months.

Jim Robinson asked us all to quit using inflammatory labels to make personal attacks on other posters. If you have nothing intelligent to use to debate a subject, you should keep your hateful thoughts to yourself.

I seriously do not like Zelensky. He helped with the Trump impeachment. He dresses like a soldier yet probably has never fired a gun except maybe at a shooting range. He talks like he is in charge of NATO and the US military which is basically true as long as Biden remains president. I am looking forward to Trump telling him his allowance is cut off and that it’s time for he held an election.

Is reality finally setting in, Marcus?

The Russians can most certainly takeout the entire electric grid in Ukraine. Surrendering is the only option at that point.

This fantasy is all you've got while Ukrainians continue to die and while Kiev faces total darkness for the winter?

You're a sociopath, devoid of a conscience.

More popcorn!!! I guess z hasn’t had enough of the Ukranians murdered as yet. How soon until he is overthrown or escapes with his family to one of his expensive large villas purchased with money stolen from the funds stolen from the US taxpayers? Pathetic!

Just last week they were recycling the story that the russkies were out of weapons. Next week maybe they’ll recycle the putin has cancer story. The longer the war continues the worse things will be, they need to negotiate peace. It’s a tragedy that so many lives on both sides have been lost. The only winners are blackrock corp and military industrial complex. Everyone else is either a loser or survivor; no winners.
