The word is Goetter Daemmerung. Meaning God’s Dawn, or something like that.

The Ukrainian people are playing it right. They will bleed Putin white.

From the article:
Ukraine must stop the airborne wreckage by gaining air supremacy through the use of more sophisticated and larger anti-aircraft batteries and far more SAMs and Stinger smaller systems. Some NATO nations may have to send Ukraine their Soviet-era fighters to replace losses - with conditions that they stay inside Ukrainian air space.
Second, the supply war must no longer be defined as a larger Russian economy versus tiny Ukraine.
Instead, Putin is now warring against the supply chain of all of Europe and the United States - and all out of his reach. The Ukrainian war machine will only grow - if fueled by allies that combined account for 70 percent of the world’s GDP.
It can inflict such death and destruction on the conventional Russian military that Putin will fear he will suffer even worse global humiliation than the United States faced after Afghanistan.

Whatever the final outcome... the Ukraine has ALREADY won!
My humble opinion.

The big question is how many men Ukraine is training. Early in the war they ordered mass impressment of all military aged men. There are about 6 million able to fight.
How many and how soon can those civilians be trained up. If even a fraction of them are put under arms Russia does not have a how.

Standing up to Vlad, defying him and beating the odds (so far) is a win that the world, and certainly the Russians, never anticipated

2014 Pro-Russian Unrest in Ukraine You're putting up bs deceptive maps. In Odessa(the city) there was a pro-Russian demonstration. So in your map, the whole of Odessa(municipality) is colored in as if there were widespread demonstrations. In fact Odessa(municipality) is 62% Ukrainian.
In the 2001 census, Ukrainians made up a majority (62 percent) of Odessa's inhabitants, along with an ethnic Russian minority (29 percent).

The precedent says that we should have all the west coast states and everything north of Maryland purged from America. They are not really American and are progressive Euro states
