We shouldn’t have spent one thin dime.......................

Hate to break the news to you, but it turns out the Russians have no trouble making military stuff to blow the world up. The country that can't make ordinary s4it anymore is some 3rd world woke borderless corrupt wasteland run by a one party state called the US of A.
Whoever takes out the globalists and restores the US to a constitutional republic free of entangling alliances that protects its own borders and the interests of its own legal citizens [there I said the racist thing].
Gateway has gone all in Putana vs Ukraine...so it seems. They are good otherwise.
Launching 70+ missiles likely cost them well over 100 million dollars... And they haven't achieved anything of worth or advanced their cause in doing so... Fighting a war is about strategy and thankfully... Putin doesn't have any.
The Ukrainians do though... They just made Putin waste 70 bombs blowing up nothing of any consequence, that he could have used against advancing Ukrainian troops. Oops!
I wonder... Can Vladimir say Doh!!!
They were warned. They better not do it again.
Note the date.
Some people might want to reconsider all the over-the-top anti-Russian propaganda and cheerleading.
See my post #49 this thread.
The US could become energy independent and probably even run a surplus to supply Europe during emergencies. It would also make the outcome of the war much less consequential. That’s quite an opportunity even for neocons if they shifted their investment into a growing energy sector and US economy. .
There’s just no political will from politicians to help Americans. That’s the common theme that unites democrats and most GOP; destroy the average American and the middle class while making the US the worldwide target of contempt.
Putin and Biden are really on the same team by drawing the world into war, impoverishing the world making it easier for globalism and one world government to completely take over.
It’s time Kiev experienced the terror and destruction that Ukraine unleashed on the Donbass for 8 years.
So far and for the most part, the Ukraine has not attacked Russian soil. They have been warned by NATO an US, /to keep the parameters of war within the Ukraine. Russia has warned all the parties to the conflict, e.g., the best New World Order/NATO/US that any attacks on Russia Soil, retaliations would be on a scale of 10X as has been popular in war for over a 100 years.
Your leader Biden has already thieved his way to that goal. Are you mad bro?
Knocking out electrical generation and distribution points is what was hit mostly. The Ukraine will not tie into the EUs electrical grid until 2023. Rolling Blackouts in the Ukraine have canceled today, the Blackouts will now be mostly permanent.
Then why did Putin start it? Why did he try to overthrow the Ukraine government?
Don’t be fooled by:
1. the Uk military: they were very strong; one of the strongest in Europe, so it wasn’t going to be a cakewalk.
2. the corruption and bad intel given to Putin at the beginning was real. It will take some time to overcome that because it ran so deep. But war is fluid and it will be dealt with. The Russian Army will emerge much stronger after certain commanding generals and inspector generals find themselves with their backs against a wall; their executions witnessed by their replacements.
Dig into the history. Be your own journalist. Dr Steve Turley did several vids on this. But don’t believe him either— prove what he says, whether it is true or not.
The popular narrative, put out by those eager to see Russia defeated is that Putin has a desire to rebuild the old Soviet Union, even though there is little evidence to support that, and quite a bit of evidence to contradict it. Nevertheless, the narrative has been crafted and disseminated by the compliant media, and has been generally accepted by just about everyone. Perhaps because it fulfills a need to dislike Putin.
But the root causes of this go back quite far in time, as Ukraine has always been rather antagonistic to it's neighbors, not only in Russia, but in Poland, Hungary, and Romania- all of which had once governed parts of what is now Ukraine. More recently the areas bordering Russia have been engaged in conflict. The 2014 coup in Kiev precipitated this latest round of violence as ethnic Russians sought a level of autonomy from the Ukraine government. There was an attempt to resolve this with the Minsk agreements, but peace was never achieved. And so, after eight years of fighting, Putin and Russia stepped in to escalate the efforts of people in the Donbass to achieve autonomy.
We might think this escalation was unnecessary, and that's probably a reasonable position. But from the Russian perspective, their patience had worn out, and they likely viewed the push from the West for Ukraine to move to a more European-centered economy, and to perhaps join NATO, was the red line that prompted Putin to act.
The war is bad for both countries, and the losses are horrifying. But I'm sure that the bad guys are not as bad as they are portrayed in the media, nor are the good guys as good as we have been led to believe.
And Putin’s response is perfectly predictable, I’m not defending it, just saying those who think the Russians will keep taking damage and not respond are fools. We wouldn’t take that damage and not respond 99% of the time, neither will Ivan.
As for the comment on blowing up innocent civilians, have your looked at our record in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria? That is the pot calling the kettle black. That being said as much as it is condemned the fact is civilians are always going to die in war either from directed fire or as the military puts it collateral damage, it’s the nature of the beast.
I didn’t say anything about the innocent civilians. (???)
