“I was told that Ukraine was kicking booty and Putin was on his death-bed.”
>>>>>>>>>>>
Ukraine has indeed done very well resisting against the massive Russian Empire.
Russia is the first nuclear power on the planet.
Russia has the second most powerful conventional army in the world.
And to make it even worse... Russia isn’t attacking Ukraine alone!
It’s a whole islamo-neo-soviet AXIS teaming up against Ukraine! It is composed as follows : Russia, Belarus, Chechnya, IRAN, North Korea and the entire CSTO (Collective Security Treaty Organization) which is Russias NATO equivalent.
It would be cruel to let Ukraine fight all that massive force all alone.
Some help is a moral thing to do in order to protect Ukraine and prevent Russia to further invade the rest of Europe.
Americas economy would collapse if Europe would lose to Russia’s expansionism. Europe is Americas first customer.
Europe and NATO would crush Russia and its axis, in a week.
So, all the ‘Pray for Ukraine’ folks can put the….Russia is going to take Europe next….nonsense to be once and for all.
Ukraine is only in this fight because of the bell it’s received.
If Russia’s fight were actually against the US and NATO it would be over quick.
As for a moral thing to do, I’d rather our morals be directed at stopping MILLIONS of 3rd world savages from entering this country illegally.
I’d rather our morals would take into account the amount of money we’ll all soon be paying in increased taxes to pay for all of them and the millions more coming.
I’d rather our morals be concerned about the 400,000 anchor babies born in the US last year, with 100s of thousands more to come this year. And we all get to pay those hospital bills.
I’d rather our morals be more concerned with the people that are coming over, where we have no idea who they are, where they came from.
I’d rather our morals be more co fed ex about the terrorists that are fires of our borders.
I’d rather our morals be more concerned about the absolutely massive amounts of fentanyl and other drugs coming g across the border and killing 1000s of Americans.
I may be wrong, but that's been my understanding for a
long time. (I looked it up, and Russia developed their
nuclear weapon four years after we did LINK)
Russian leaders have talked about Moldova, Poland, Latvia,
Estonia, Finland, and Sweden, in terms it talked about
the Ukraine before invading.
IMO < Russia took actions that reminded me of Hitler's
moves at the start of WWII.
Making the Ukraine a hard target to excel in, was a wise
thing to do, again > IMO.
Yes $100 billion is a lot of money. It is still only
0.3225% of our current national debt, but pales in light
of what a WWIII might cost the United States to wage.
Using the illegal immigration issue to game the funds we
are expending in the Ukraine forgets some major facts. We
did not reduce funding, staffing, or equipment and
infrastructure on controlling the border. Biden simply
changed our policies. "Let them in!"

We just lost a 30 year war with a bunch of ragheads and now you wanta be a cheerleader for NWO WEF perverts and take on 1/2 of the worlds nuclear powers. BRILLIANT ...
“prevent Russia to further invade the rest of Europe.”
Not getting involved in the Ukraine does not mean we would let Russia conquer Europe. That’s a ridiculous argument. No one is going to let Europe get conquered by Russia, and Russia has given no indication they intend to try.
You seem to forget this little organization called NATO that exists precisely for that reason.
Ukraine is not a NATO member. If Ukraine falls it will not affect our country in any material way, and we have no treaty with them that obligates us to anything.

“One argument I often hear is that the war cannot be allowed to spread. That’s right, but the war will spread unless Russia loses. If he can do so militarily, Russian President Vladimir Putin will march on to Moldova and then proceed from there, so the only way to contain his war is to support Ukraine fully.”
Thanks to billions in US cash and military equipment.
BTW, Putin hasn't really unleashed his military, he so far has used mercenaries and contractors. If he wanted to, Ukraine would have fallen within days last year.
