The mineral rich ethnic Russian Donbass. Vlad accomplishes his primary goal….I forget, what was the collective West’s stated goal? To “ grind down Russia”, FAILED, big time.

The Kursk Pocket debacle will spell the end of our stooges in Kiev. If Putin would stop fighting like George McClellan and get on with the “bloody arithmetic”, he could end this before DC escalates it to nuclear WWIII.

Oh please.

Maybe. Maybe not.

But I’m glad Russia is happy to be invaded, it’s a disaster for Ukraine, what a debacle! /s

So then what are the anti Ukraine pro Russia folks complaining about?

Shouldn’t you be happy? Ukraine has made such a big mistake, why are you insisting they correct the mistake?

As always, I have no prediction the ultimate result of the incursion. But the idea that Putin is so happy about it, is silly.

Wait. You are criticizing Putin and comparing him to McClellan?

That’s interesting.

Totally agree with your statement that Trump will resolve the war. And I accept however he does it.

Hence my shiny new tagline.

———-
Amen….and negotiations will pick up from the Minsk Agreements… the agreements the EU and Ukies violated….in any case, the Russian Donbass will remain Russian.

Of note: there have been five peace talks of this date, the Ukies backed out of all five…

Ukraine’s success was never based on itself, it was based on being supplied enough fancy weapons by other countries. Those countries are running out of weapons and Ukraine is running out of troops.

To put on a show, Ukraine had to go somewhere not defended and not strategic to the conflict. That didn’t work either.

The only questions left are how many more lives and how much material will be wasted before the conflict ends.

I compare Putin with Trump, he takes care of his citizens and country, puts them first, and does what he says…..both groups love their leaders.

Ukraine conscripts are not performing well.

Instead of going deep, wouldn’t it have been better to turn as soon as they crossed the Russian defenses and wipe them out from the sides and back?

Not even the American fleeing of Afghanistan have wasted so many resources.

Ouch...that's gonna leave a mark.

I like your tagline, yet here you are banging pots and pans together for a war that is none of our business. But if you truly turned a new leaf, that makes sense.

Straight out of Battle of the Bulge. Put all your resources into a narrow advance while the enemy cuts you off from behind.
