The art of making George Custer look like the all-time winner...
At least this is balanced news.
The art of making George Custer look like the all-time winnerGeorge Custer was on the winning side.
Thick as a Brick 🧱
This planet is not big enough for Zelensky to hide in for very long, i.e. the kinfolk of those 600,000 hohos the guy has gotten killed for no rational reason will find him.
Money laundering has always been the top priority of this war.
Still unimpeded by facts.
there was a rational reason...10% to the big guy.
The sickest thing about this war is sending people to their deaths for social media W’s.
It works because NeoCon fools like Adam Kinzinger were willing to give Ukraine unconditional support based on the supposed “heroism” of the Ghost of Kiev.
Kinzinger is an extreme case, but a lot of the decision making, first to support Ukraine, and now to cut them lose, is based on heavily manipulated social media messaging and official authorized “leaks”.
The only data that is real in this war is (maybe) the Ukraine War Pentagon leak. And even that was subject to manipulation.
We are ALMOST at the point where Baudrillard’s “the Gulf War Did Not Take Place” starts to be a plausible analysis.

To avoid defeat, Ukraine need only survive.

“The sickest thing about this war is sending people to their deaths”
Agree.
If only Putin would stop his invasion. This would stop the blood shed for both Russian and Ukraine military as well as civilian deaths.
Russia has done more than that: Russians have defeated nato AND "ukraine". Twenty years from now, yuo're going to say the word "ukraine" and people will scratch their heads and reply "huh??"...
” If only Putin would stop his invasion. This would stop the blood shed for both Russian and Ukraine military as well as civilian deaths.”
No it wouldn’t.
It would only be a pause.
Once NATO gets up to the Russian border at Kharkiv, Sumy etc. it’s inevitable that they attack given the hatred of Russia that they, and you, have repeatedly represented.
So then that really is WW3, with even more death and destruction.
Having read this view a number of times through a number of sources, it seems a language trick.
"To avoid defeat, "X" need only survive" is true for Germany, as an example. The Nazis were of course defeated, and yet Germany 'survived'. And some idiots few Nazis are still around as well, though 'defeated'.
Simple word substitution sometimes uncovers fallacies.
“We look forward to seeing more Russian failures in 2024, as Russia continues to give a half-ass effort militarily! “
Enjoy it well it lasts. On Russian TV the politicians have openly stated that 2024, just like 2023, will be a build year for the army, and for military industries.
And 2025 will be the big attack.
“Big attack” with what? LOL
Russia has had 30,000 troops killed just in the last 3 months, with its failed “meat-wave” attacks on Avdiivka (STILL not captured!)
Putin needs more warm bodies to replace the many cold ones
I cheer for NO war. Your use of name-calling, besides being against the spirit of Mr. Robinson's clear request, is little and mean-spirited.
Among Jim Robinson's requests of July 24, 2023:That you so easily resort to name-calling suggests, by Mr. Robinson's words, that you are no American conservative.Remember to use common courtesy when posting to FR. Leave off the insults and flames, name calling, etc.
We are conservatives. Be respectful to your debate adversary (fellow FReeper). For example, do not accuse them of being a "Putinista", "commrade", "murderer", "baby-killer", etc, just because he may have a difference of opinion whether or not the US government should be involved in a controversial foreign war where we were not attacked.
Likewise, things in the presidential primary are getting over-heated. We want to be sure we come out of this with a Republican president, house and senate. The only way we can accomplish that is to unify the Republican Party. We can't destroy our own candidates. Whoever it is will need to pull us ALL together. Keep the ultimate goal in sight - Freedom! We are not here to fight each other. We are here as allies to fight for God, family, country, and FREEDOM! As William Wallace said in Brave Heart, "Unite the clans!".
“Big attack” with what? LOL
Russia is adding 30,000 additional people per month into their military.

You cheer for Russia on every thread, so you’re a Russia cheerleader
Not a lie, and not so difficult to understand, is it?
Don’t want to be seen as a “Russia cheerleader”?
Then stop cheering for Putin!
