“They were your words. You seem to be assigning yourself as a free American some superiority over the free Ukrainian.”

Not at all.

Ukrainians are free to fight to the last man, woman, child and dog if they wish. I’m not judging them either way.

I know if I were an American in 1812, that’s what I would do.

I don’t care a whit what Ukrainians do.

But I would not use the American war of 1812 as an example of what Ukraine is doing. I don’t believe it to be a good analogy and I would advise the neocon think tank to toss that one.

Feel free to expound further, but I took the 1812 analogy from your comment that Ukraine was barely 30 years old. About what we were in1812. Both countries made free from an oppressor. Both countries attacked by that same oppressor some 30 years later. Both countries asking and looking for allies in their cause. Both countries in situations where, without help, they would lose. I actually think it’s a decent analogy, but happy to hear argument why it’s not.
