Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy made a direct appeal to Republican critics during his Wednesday address to a joint meeting of Congress, telling lawmakers that no country was safe in the face of Russian aggression.

In a speech that won several standing ovations from both sides of the aisle, Zelenskyy predicted the war will hit a turning point next year just as Republicans are set to take control of the U.S. House of Representatives.

"The struggle will define in what world our children and grandchildren will live," said Zelenskyy. "This battle cannot be frozen or postponed, it cannot be ignored hoping that [an] ocean or something else will provide protection."

Zelensky IS the US Deep State

He is a member and player. Ukraine’s corruption is part of our corruption.

I really think the Zman has more graft in him than anyone can imagine. Here he comes into the country that the very person, Biden, threatened him with withholding $1M in funds awarded by the US for stopping the investigation on Biden’s kid and firing the prosecutor that was doing it. Is there no shame at all anymore?

No country on Earth is safe with the CIA and the U.S. State Department pushing “regime change” everywhere in the world.

The way to stop this is to force a “regime change” in the USA.

I never thought I would say this but Russia will be doing the world a big favor by destroying those in leadership in Ukraine AND by pulling the rug out from under NATO to put an end to that worthless money pit as well.

Angela Merkel let the cat out of the bag when she admitted Western Europe and the USA never intended to honor the Minsk agreements they signed. They just signed to buy time to fully arm and equip Ukraine for an all-out war with Russia.

As Donald Trump asked years ago, “Why do we need NATO?”

We now know for sure - nothing the USA or Western Europe proposes can ever be trusted with the wicked warmongers in power.

We need to get the hell out of this before it comes to our doorstep. At some point, our proxy war will become a direct conflict. Russia will decide to cut out the middleman...

When was the last time that happened? It didn't happen in Vietnam, it didn't happen in Afghanistan, it didn't happen in Iraq, and it didn't happen in Afghanistan (again).

The biggest long-term threat to the US is China, and the best way to deter China is to show strength in unity in the face of Russian aggression.

Yeah, he needs to align with a country like the USA, where the CIA covers up truth, and contains details of Hunters laptop... The country who turns the FBI into political hacks to make sure the Deep State never allow the PEOPLES choice to sit in the Oval Office. Birds of a feather,.....flock together. NO MORE of our taxes to the Ukraine.. PLEASE.

Not a supporter of him or Putin. But we need a thorough audit. Biden, Pelosi and Democrat support for ANYONE should be a red flag. In the meantime innocents are being slaughtered. What a mess.

Just to be clear, nobody in the US capitol tonight gives a **** about Ukraine or saving democracy. They care about laundering hundreds of billions of dollars through a corrupt dictator willing to whore himself out to the ruling class. They are all cheap, shameless frauds.

We and the Russians are using our military capabilities in Ukraine. Soros and Xi must be pleased.

We were safe until we supported the 2014 coup in Ukr & tried to put it in NATO. Now we are unsafe. Keep the war going and keep putting us in greater danger.

Zelensky makes a valid point.

No, he doesn't

The 0bama red line worked so well.

Chem weapon attacks in Syria were a false flag intended to get the US directly involved.

This is the last best chance for commie containment.

Nonsense.

Regan said detente was surrender.

False...and it REAGAN.

A fat commie will eat your dinner; you will starve.

A fat Nazi would do the same thing.

McNamara said the domino theory was bunk, but he said a lot of stuff.

Vietnam is communist and Thailand still has a king...so no domino.

Mexican Cartels (working with the Chinese) have more money than the US Government.

China's taking over South America and strategic areas of Africa.

And Zelenskyy thinks our security is based on helping Ukraine? LOL. The only thing happening in the world is corrupt little countries around the world are working hard to find the 'NEW HUNTER BIDEN' to grease his palm.

Actually, Russia is a distant third in the superpower department and has a long history of distrust of China, so what we should have done was switch from being semi-pals with China when the USSR collapsed to being semi-pals with Russia (as George Keenan advised). Instead, we created a monster China that is working toward making the 21st century theirs (and may well succeed) while pushing a reluctant Russia into China’s arms, shrieking “Russia Russia Russia!” like a frightened schoolgirl. We have been supremely foolish.

I have said since the very beginning that whoever “wins” this very stupid war in Ukraine, the real winner is China. And China knows it.

As far as “nothing happening” in previous proxy wars, the stakes are far different this time. Nuland and friends imagine they can use this war for regime change in Russia, and break Russia into pieces (which the Chinese will grab) and Biden said so publicly. We had no such goal in prior proxy wars. We raised the stakes on our own side, too. NATO’s reputation is at stake as well. We will do just about anything to keep our favorite power tool NATO relevant. Just as Putin will do just about anything to keep his head on his shoulders and Russia whole.

These are dangerous days, the likes of which we never saw back in the good old days of Cold War.

Our definition of winning (Putin out, tried as a war criminal, Russia broken to bits, NATO victorious) has precluded any sort of acceptable peace settlement. Think about it. And let us pray. Hard.
