These comments are hilarious! I’m enjoying reading them.
You’re actually saying we can’t appreciate a good 3 year war because we’re too used to fast food.
But not Russia, they know how to enjoy three years of slaughtering their troops. Like aging a good bottle of wine, huh?

I’m simply agreeing with DR’s point that the slow, grinding war of attrition has been favorable to Russia thus far. Instead of writing childishly sarcastic replies, maybe you would be better served to give that some serious thought.

Recall if you will that the geniuses in the Biden administration initially sold the notion to the country that their sanctions would quickly bring Russia to its knees. Not surprisingly, that misguided strategy and subsequent “punitive” efforts totally failed, and in fact only served to encourage counter alignments against widely perceived U.S. economic weaponization tactics. This debacle was followed up by selling the American public on more quick fixes through a never ending and disjointed series of (unaccountable) weapons and munitions dumps and enormous flows of money for Ukraine. There is not and never has been a well defined long term strategy in place to effectively counter Russian aggression.

Again, the point is this administration is no stranger to failure and incompetence and hasn’t been honest (what a surprise) with the American people that Russia is playing a long game and we need to soberly and wisely deal with that instead of fostering notions that impulsive reactions by the administration are the answer.
