The Ukrainians have held off Russian advances for over two years. Drawing NATO and thereby the U.S. into direct conflict with the Russian Army is a horrible idea. We are the best military in NATO but the armed services have been in decline since Reagan left office. The Bushes got us involved in unsuccessful Middle Eastern wars, the Democratic triplets of Clinton, Obama, and Biden promoted leftist social policies over readiness, and Trump did not have enough time or ability to reverse 28 years of bad policies.

A loss in Ukraine, if it actually happens, would be embarrassing to the Biden regime, as well as his British, French, and German counterparts. However, a NATO vs. Russia ground war would be worse even if NATO has the ability to win. Americans and the other NATO countries could see Vietnam War or even World War II level casualties.

Meanwhile we have sent our secret weapon to Kiev, Anthony Blinken was over there this meeting with Zelensky and his spare time went to a local tavern and got up on stage play his guitar, sing and perform, while a bunch of Ukrainian suckers were getting overrun by Russians.

On a more serious note, reports from the Kharkov region say the Russians are on the verge of taking the town of Lyptsi, which if these reports are true would put the Russians in artillery range of Kharkov, which they are sure to start shelling unmercifully.

Russia simply choose kill Ukraine’s military with firepower while building up their military. It has taken from 2022 to mid-2024 for Russia to match the massive q.2m Ukraine army. Russia has bleed them in their bunkers, which as of this week, have finally been taken. It was slow murderous kill zone work of necessity.

Ukraine lasted this long ecause the goal is destruction of the Ukrainian military before occupation and Uke defeat.

NATO is going to swallow a bitter pill economically on the road to seeing total Uke surrender.
