"Conservatism without a moral core is dead as a political movement. Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it."

I am already getting what I wished for. One-fifth of the population of the Ukraine has already fled the country and half of it is in ruins. Russia has already seized its industrial heartland. The Ukraine is already gone and what remains is on life support provided by idiots willing to fight to the last Ukrainian.

Your hero Biden done f***** up.

“I hope the Ukraine loses and its territory split amongst all of its neighboring countries. The Ukrainians were in on the coup against President Trump.”

You want an entire country destroyed, an entire people to lose sovereignty in their own nation, because a tiny handful of Ukrainians may have worked against Trump? Then logically you must want the same for our own United States since something even far worse happened here.

Don’t ever wish evil upon innocent people.

Not true but I wish it were. RuSSia’s long history of bullying the surrounding countries needs to stop. Like a schoolyard bully that hits and hits and hits, there is no appeasement is hiding. Time to do what must be done.

Again. The Ukrainians were in on the coup against President Trump. The first impeachment was driven by President Trump's call to Zelensky and Ukrainian-born "whistle-blower" Col. Vindman was the impetus. Col. Vindman was offered the high position of Defense Minister of Ukraine twice by the Ukraine - why?. The coup against President Trump led us into the Ukraine War and the death of hundreds of thousands of people and the impoverishment of America. We are led by traitors and snakes.

Vindman, 44, explained during his impeachment testimony that he had been offered the position three times but declined the position because of his loyalty to the United States. The lieutenant colonel was born in Ukraine, but his family immigrated to the U.S. when he was a toddler.

Vindman claimed he did not know why he was offered the high ranking position of defense minister.

And, amazingly, after President Trump was only out of office a little over a year we were at war with Russia at the behest of the Ukraine.

I want the Ukraine to lose and I am already getting what I wished for. One fifth of the population of the Ukraine has already fled the country and half of it is in ruins. Russia has already seized its industrial heartland. The Ukraine is already gone and what remains is on life support provided by neocon idiots willing to fight to the last Ukrainian.

Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for February 13, 2023 + US sanctions deliberately compounding Syrian earthquake relief efforts:

- US rep admits US sanctions and occupation of eastern Syria are to prevent reconstruction for use as leverage following Washington’s failed proxy war;

- Russian missiles & drones targeted Ukraine’s power grid inflicting heavy damage nationwide;

- The missile/drone strikes included an unmanned naval drone targeting a bridge in Odessa;

- Western governments and analysts admit that it will take years to send Ukraine NATO jets;

- Any appearance beforehand means NATO pilots are posing as Ukrainian pilots;

- CNN claims captured “Wagner” fighters say Russia is suffering heavy losses, CNN suggests 80% of the 50,000 Wagner recruited have died, been injured, or are captured;

- This suggests only 10k Wagner fighters are outfighting/surrounding Ukrainian troops in Bakhmut;

- CNN used US-EU supported front “Russia Behind Bars” to back claims in report, a similar tactic used during the US proxy war in Syria;

You want an entire nation to be destroyed because a tiny handful worked against Trump.

That means you want America destroyed too - if you’re at all consistent.

The smarter way - the moral way - would be to reject your view that it is right to destroy entire countries because of a handful of people. I don’t want Russia destroyed. I don’t want China destroyed. I don’t want millions of innocent people to suffer for the actions of a handful. You do.

We've been doing all bullying in Ukraine since 2014, just we've done in Syria, Libya, Yemen, etc.

We fomented an illegal coup in Ukraine, overthrew a democratically-elected President, setoff a civil war and trained and funded neo-Nazis and Ukrainian nationalists, encouraging them to persecute and kill the ethnic Russian population.

Minus the years under Trump and the necessary war in Afghanistan, our neocon/liberal world order foreign policy has been disaster and one engaged in solely to enrich our political class and their financial backers.

On the contrary. Ukraine is still Ukraine despite being attacked by the biggest country in the world for a year. It’s American conservatism that is on “life support”. It is in danger of becoming a broken and defeated fringe movement clinging to Chomskyite Anti American rhetoric and secret servers in Germany nutbaggery. Ukrainians defend hearth and home while political losers piss and moan at their keyboard. And that’s why they hate them.

"Ukraine did not invade Russia."

You are right, the Ukraine did not invade Russia. That being said, the Ukraine broke away from Russia and were not smart enough afterwards to quit attacking and killing ethnic Russians. They made the mistake of involving themselves in the tensions between NATO and Russia and are getting what they deserve.

“That being said, the Ukraine broke away from Russia...”

False. Both Russia and Ukraine broke away from the Soviet Union as it dissolved.

“... and were not smart enough afterwards to quit attacking and killing ethnic Russians.”

The ethnic Russians were not smart enough to not rebel and use violence to create two new states with Russian support forcing Ukraine into a civil war it never wanted.

“They made the mistake of involving themselves in the tensions between NATO and Russia and are getting what they deserve.”

Then at the very least the “ethnic Russians” have been getting what they deserve, right?
