I’m fuming that Zelenski didn’t even put on a suit for the Pope. What a piece of cr** he is.

I don’t believe anything I am told about Ukraine. Let me know when it is over and who won.

I know what you mean. And there are no good guys at the top on either side. I feel deeply sorry for the ordinary soldiers on both sides though.

10,000 pieces of military hardware... didn’t we leave more than that in Afghanistan?

The Ukraine war has demonstrated some sobering facts to the world’s military. In this modern technological era, it is clear that helicopters, naval surface combatants, armored land vehicles and to a lesser extent low flying fixed wing aircraft are obsolete. Since mankind will continue to go to war until the crack of doom, tactics will have to change.

Baghdad Bob, Axis Sally, Tokyo Rose, Lord Has Haw, all rolled into one. The whole conflict is almost completely misrepresented in the media. Little snippets of (mis-, or dis-)information from every social media side. Agreed that the bottom line will be known long after the shooting ends.

Same here. And all of the people who have lost their homes, their livelihoods and had their lives shattered and upended.

Trump said it right the other day in that Town Hall. Stop the killing. Stop all the dying.

On both sides.

🙏

Reward Putin's invasion of Ukraine with annexed territory? That will teach China not to invade Taiwan.

“Ukraine’s survival is Taiwan’s survival. Ukraine’s success is Taiwan’s success,” “Our futures are closely linked.”

“Support for Ukraine is relevant to us because, first of all, ultimately it helps to deter. It imposes costs on the aggressor,” Hsiao said. “International support for Ukraine is also essential in affirming the credibility and reliability of the United States and your allies.” Taiwan’s representative in Washington, Bi-khim Hsiao

“Chinese made vodka”

Wonder how much methanol it has in it?

Blah, blah, blah, twist, twist, twist, distort, distort, distort…

You Ukies have been employing these tactics here for well over a year. We are impervious to it.

We get it. You want the destruction and the killing to continue. Most of us don’t.

Actions have consequence, and if you reward Putin with additional territory after initiating this invasion, what will be the example for China?

Dennis in with the Daily Mail intelligence narrative of the day!

I am still looking for the pic of the Chinese made vodka the stronk Russian army is swilling in Ukraine. There is Chinese writing on the empty vodka bottles that the Ukie army came across. Seems the Rooosky vodka makers cannot keep with the demands of Putin's craptastic Russian army.

If I was in the Rooosky army I would get drunk and surrender to the Ukrainians, any way I could. Why die for that idiot warmonger Putin?

The Russians are indebted to the Ethiopean engineers for this innovation


Actually, we led that type of field expedient innovation in Iraq and Afghanistan. Works well for various types of anti tank weapons. Looks stupid, but it ain’t stupid if it works
