One Year Later, Americans Still Stand by Ukraine
Gallup News ^ | February 6, 2023 | MOHAMED YOUNIS

Posted on 02/06/2023 3:06:15 PM PST by Timber Rattler

Nearly one year into the war between Russia and Ukraine, Americans’ support for Ukraine holds steady. A stable 65% of U.S. adults prefer that the United States support Ukraine in reclaiming its territory, even if that results in a prolonged conflict. Meanwhile, 31% continue to say they would rather see the U.S. work to end the war quickly, even if this allows Russia to keep its territory.

These data are from a Gallup web survey conducted Jan. 3-22, while the Russia-Ukraine conflict was at a relative stalemate and negotiations were underway among the U.S., Germany and other Western allies, who were contemplating intensifying their military support for the country to include tanks. Shortly after the poll was conducted, President Joe Biden announced that the U.S. would send 31 tanks to Ukraine.

(snip)

As the war in Ukraine enters its second year, Americans’ support for the nation, despite a prolonged conflict, has held steady. Although the degree of support varies, majorities of all party groups would like to see the U.S. support Ukraine in regaining its territory, even if that entails a prolonged conflict, rather than end the conflict quickly and cede territory to Russia.

Biden wants to fund war in Ukraine.

Everyone who wants the same is on his side.

You call that “nonsense?”

You are blind to the obvious.

Or just maybe it's the other way around.

Nobody polled me; if they had they would have been told “I hope the UKIES and the RUSKIES kill EACH OTHER UNTIL NO ONES LEFT TO KILL”.

I support that, only without us.

Hey, maybe we can take this bloody, destructive model to the Indians and Chinese and let them kill each other off.

It has been my experience, in this bluest of blue states I live in, that the very same houses I see on my 45 min drive to and from work that had the “RESIST” signs during the election, and “In This House We Believe” signs, and “Black Lives Matter” signs, nearly universally, are the same people with “We Stand With Ukraine” signs too.

Some of them have all four of them.

I don’t know of a single conservative, not one, who has any of those signs.

It seems pretty clear to me that the only people who “Support Ukraine” are the same people that support the Left.

Bar none.

People on this forum who post this Ukraine crap ad nauseaum are no conservatives and in fact, may be people who get paid by the post. Well, perhaps not. Those being paid by the post would be the smart ones, making a living off of it. The other ones are likely Leftist sheep.

At best.

If “standing by” means klacking on a keyboard” thousands of miles away while actually doing nothing then I guess, yes, they are standing by.

Biden stands with China.

China is the ultimate winner here.

Before 2014, when our CIA and State Department facilitated a coup and installed their puppet in the Ukraine, there was greater willingness to help the Ukraine.

President Trump asked the Ukraine to investigate the Biden family crimes in the Ukraine, but since the Ukraine is bought and paid for by the DNC/Biden/Pelosi/Schumer/Romney/State Department/CIA, they wouldn't help.

Ever since the public realized that the Ukraine is the Deep State's money laundering/graft/fraud Headquarters, the public turned their back on Zelensky. It's the MSM and Congress making it look like anyone not among the globalist elites supports their ongoing proxy war against Russia.

Some Ukrainian investigators documented some of the money laundering (Biden and others) and put it out for the public to see. I fear the investigators may have been killed for their actions. But we still have their evidence which put in the folloowing FR thread:

Many are standing behind Ukraine ... the distance is increasing daily as the reality hammer comes down.

I have a preferred player in this fight but my preference is slight and certainly not worth WWIII

Amazing how even with all the bruhaha over Serbia et al, for years, nobody was flying their damn flags.
