Europe must fight. The realisation has been slow in coming. Yet almost one year after Russia invaded Ukraine, most western governments finally understand Kyiv’s war for survival is their war, too. It’s a fight to the death for Ukraine, but also for European democracy, rights and values. It’s a fight against the historical evils of fascism and imperialism embodied by Vladimir Putin, a dictator for our age.
Europe must fight. It really has no choice. As Russia doubles down, threatening a huge new offensive, a turning point approaches when tragedy turns to ruin – or triumph. This moment, when the war has become familiar and wearying, is the moment of maximum danger. From Sweden, Spain, the Netherlands, France, Poland and the Baltic republics, the flow of arms is turning into an urgent torrent.

Ah yes, and we shouldn’t have given Lend-Lease aid to Britain and Russia during WW2. Just think of all the British and Russian lives that would have been saved if they just surrendered to Nazi Germany. /sarc
Ukraine 1991-2023 RIP , the sooner the better.
This statement shows you support Russia’s war of conquest against Ukraine.
In the News/Activism forum, on a thread titled Ukraine is fighting for all of us. Now Europe must fight Putin too, bert wrote: I am vehemently opposing the war criminals on Free Republic constantly supporting the despicable Russian war of occupation
Disagreeing with you doesn't make us war criminals. Rejecting participation in the proxy war against Russia by NATO doesn't make us war criminals.
Now, the Ukrainians filming their own soldiers shooting Russian captives (soldiers) in the back of the head - THAT is war criminal behavior.
Most of THE GREAT GAME in Central Asia in the 19th century was the same. The threat of Russia moving south and taking India was pumped up in the press in GB and other places. It was not logistically feasible but the hype kept it on the front page.
Maybe you’ve been asleep for the last 80 years. Everything that’s happened since then has escaped you.
Remember what Zelensky said in July…… ...that helping his country should be ‘more important’ for Americans than our own domestic concerns, .... urging Americans to make sacrifices and support aid for Kiev “until we win.”
What delusions of grandeur does this dweeb have to approach anyone like that.
.......”Ukraine is a key player on the road to world government and mass slavery. They need to lose”......
Ukraine is no more a democracy than Russia, it’s just well disguised. It’s one group of thugs fighting another group of thugs.
Clowns like you put your faith in Vlad Putin to save you from the WEF, Klaus Schwab and Globohomo. In reality, you idiots are not on Putin's agenda to help. All Putin cares about is vainglorious conquest. To get his (blackened) name in the history books.
Weapons can help produce cease-fires, but they cannot themselves create long-lasting, established peace.......If Ukraine continues to exist, it will be as an impoverished land without any industrial or economic clout and totally dependent on aid. .....just as it’s been for decades.
Pathetic Tsar Putin doesn't even have enough genuine ethnic Russians to keep Russia glued together. And their birth rates are abysmal. Pathetic Putin and his Russia can't conquer anyone these days.
They’re fighting for Soros, Schwab & Satan. I pray for their total defeat.
When a hardcore leftist outlet like The Guardian tells you Ukraine is “fighting for us,” it’s clear they mean “fighting for Leftist ideology at your expense.”
I'm 100% sure you are right!
“”Remember what Zelensky said in July…… ...that helping his country should be ‘more important’ for Americans than our own domestic concerns, ....”””
I haven’t been able to find that speech, which source are you using?
The Ukraine is not America’s long lost child. Why, o why, must Americans fight a war at any cost? Because we are easily used. Unless we can invest in some recompense like a double our investment return, then let the chips fall where they may. Believe me, no one will lift a finger as we are reduced to ashes.
Sadly, there are fools here that want Americans to lose their lives fighting to keep the money laundering machine going in Ukraine so the Bidens, Soros, our corrupt political class and their financial backers can keep the money rolling in.
A couple of people were confused by your quote I think. Remember to attribute the quote, you meant Bush Jr. correct?
Anyhow if this war becomes wider it will make the third time the world has been led to a bloody dance over European inter-tribal squabbles.
“We also know that there are ZERO Ukrainians troops invading Russia.”
Many Ukrainians resent the use of the Russian language and the economic power of Russians in Ukraine that are a legacy of the USSR, much like people of color resent the dominance of white people in American government and corporations.
Like people of color in the USA, those Ukrainians have taken action.
The Russians in eastern Ukraine decided to go their own way. That was not accepted by Kiev. It was not well received in DC either, since the people in DC fear white nationalists might fight for autonomy within the USA. About $100 billion has been sent to Ukraine to send you in red areas a message - you are and will continue to be ruled and taxed from DC.
If you’re referring to post #30, yes W Bush.
