We can either be like her neighbors, who heard it all and did nothing to help her, or we can choose to help.
Last century, wearied by WWII and the need and struggle to rebuild Europe after the war, not unlike Kitty Genovese’s neighbors, the West looked away as Soviet Russia invaded and assimilated its neighbors.
This time, the West, mostly via NATO, is stepping up with aid and commitments to continue to help Ukraine stay Ukraine.
Is helping Ukraine the right thing to do? Or would it be more morally correct to ignore Ukraine’s pleas for help against its attacker?
I think we should defend our borders and help Ukraine defend its borders, also. That would be consistent with our values and our beliefs as stated in our laws and in our Bill of Rights.
War in Ukraine is the fault of US and NATO | John Mearsheimer and Lex Fridman
Ukraine….worst timeshare ever!
Apparently he’s not residing in the oblasts where men are being gang-pressed off the streets and sent to the trenches to die, in weeks or even days by the accounts of some miserable souls captured alive.
He is being fed the Big Lie from Kiev, and from even the US on behalf of Kiev, that somehow Ukraine has killed half a million Russians, and tens of thousands more every week. More likely the other way around, seeing the barrage of FABs artillery drones and missiles onto Ukrainian troops in poorly constructed trenches, hiding in buildings and basements, and in more sophisticated bunkers.
This factually distorted fairy tale of casualty counts keeps Uke hope pumped, and the western MIC awash in money collected for weapons.
We are making a needless enemy of Russia and pushing it into alliances with scoundrels. Our real enemy is the Biden regime, with leftist allies and billionaire financiers. And the real issue is whose ideology is going to prevail, not sovereignty or who started the fighting.
It is so cowardly of you to go behind my back to talk about me. Of course, it is understandable since you could never answer my points and simply hid behind your Ivy League pseudo intellectual zip wad.
Yeah, talk down to Ukrainians some more about their own country like you know something when you’re too much of a pansy to go there and actually learn something.
You are just a stupid and petty man.
Bull Shit.......Absolute drivel
You support Russia thereby supporting the Axis of Evil that includes Iranian terrorists that are now, today, seeking to kill American sailors in the Red Sea. The same terrorists you now support actively attacked Israel and cowardly, for the umpteenth time, time took hostages for ransom.
Some would call your action treason
Almost everything wrong today goes back to Obama and his handlers.
The globohomos never want to talk about the coup they perpetrated in Ukraine during the obama admin. Or about how, after the coup, their faggot hero started bombing eastern Ukraine, which was mostly comprised of Russian peoples.
But now we are told to believe that Putin is Hitler for wanting to stop the bombings and protect Russian people in Eastern Ukraine.
All because of Obama deep state sycophants meddling in Ukraine and subverting ‘democracy’ there.
They have put us on a path to ww3 and on a path to boots on the ground on the other side of the world.
Not a penny for foreign wars, and if you feel the need, pick up a gun and offer your service to The Zelensky!
Isolationists like you are a threat to national security.
Hold free and fair elections right now and I’d revisit my support for UKR
“Ukraine did not bargain in good faith with Moscow. It was just used to try and siphon Moscow’s resources with the intent of breaking up Russia.”
Total nonsense.
No! Certainly not to this extent. We are treating the Ukraine as though it has become our 51st state!
How many of these 150 wars should American taxpayers spend billions of dollars on? And after these 150 wars end, how many of these countries should we rebuild?
RED SEA!
HOUTHIS!
CHINA!
AXIS OF SHMUCKS!
TREASON!
ISOLATION!

Exactly. And don’t forget all the false flagging by Bolton and his fellow Democrats: Russia elected Trump; Russia had Asad wage chemical warfare against his own people; Russia blew-up its own pipeline; etc.
I’m a wheat and soybean farmer here in central Kansas who also raises cattle. I’m also a pragmatist, like everyone I know. So the question I must ask is: How did U.S. involvement in Ukraine benefit me, my neighbors, the people of the United States in general? I don’t see any benefit.
Territorial dispute. Russia is never giving back Russian speaking Oblasts. This isn’t the Cold War and NATO’s treaty was finished when the Soviet Union collaped.Mission accomplished. America has its own border war to contend with.
“I think Obama/Biden, Soros, and the CIA should have never got involved in Ukraine. If they hadn’t, there would still be peace.”
So, Putin/Russian overt and covert actions to (1) try to assassinate Ukraine leaders, (2) create a proxy war situation in the Donbas, (3) subvert the democratic processes in Ukraine to get a Ukriane leader pliable to Putin demands, all meant NOTHING and required no response by Ukraine or anyone else? Nonsense.
“I think that the CIA and the dirty politicians here that were profiteering from Ukraine should have been outed instead of impeaching a sitting POTUS for asking about the kickbacks”.
Which politicians besides Hunter Biden were getting kickbacks from Ukrainians? And how do they matter at all in relation to Putin’s decision to invade Ukraine? What that such things which are common in Russia with Putin’s mobacracy are a cause for war, by Putin, if they happen in Ukraine? More total nonsense.
“I think Putin shouldn’t have invaded. I think Joe Biden should have given Ukraine so many fighters that it would be impossible for the Russians to use helicopters or any other aircraft over the battlefield.”
Finally something somewhat sensible.
But a strong U.S. president did not even need to do that. A strong U.S. president (maybe a Trump) could have and should have said to Putin: If you are concerned about Ukraine joining NATO, then I can assure you that a Russian invastion of Urkaine will GUARANTEE that will happen, as a direct result of such an invasion, and sooner more likely than later.
“No western nation bargained with Russia in good faith”
How so???
