I can’t believe the war in Ukraine is still going on.

For the last 3 months...every day on this site I read that Putin is on his last legs health-wise, his army is in retreat, his Generals have all but been killed, the Russian people hate him, etc. etc. etc.

And yet, somehow, against great odds, Putin and the war continue.

Simply amazing.

I can’t believe it either

every day for the last 8 months we’ve heard from the Russian shills how Ukraine is getting crushed, their Army is getting half their soldiers killed every week, their economy is destroyed, etc.

yet with all that, somehow this war still continues

yes it is simply amazing ...

Well it looks like he’s chiseled out his land bridge dimensions and now securing those under the umbrella of Russian control. He may just use the river as the boundary and let a snippet of Kherson stay as Ukraine. I know there was some questions about what established borders are to begin with. All and all so far Putin’s taking the steps he pretty much said he was going to do....and when Ukraine/Nato troops or others get in his way he just regroups and comes back into the fray to continue with those plans. Meanwhile Ukraine’s full of old Russian military machinery I tend to think was also planned. Like a grave yard for metal and iron.
