The first player to land on Baltic Avenue always bought it.

Write Joe Biden and ask him when are we getting the thermonuclear war we were promised. Doesn’t he know there’s a overpopulation problem on this planet and he’s the savior of Mudder Erf?

“Such a move would help relieve Ukraine’s manpower crunch and allow it to send more soldiers to the front lines.”

I bet those Uke draftees getting a rotation will really appreciate that! Nothing like people who will backfill the easier billets in the rear to allow you to get back to the Eastern Front!

And Estonia... they have an SS “veterans” march every year. So I guess it makes sense.

They’re waiting for almost 2 1/2 yrs but they really, really want it!

Time is running out. By the end January 2025, this is either over or going to be over shortly thereafter.

WWIII any day now.

Someone may want to remind the CCP that the guaranteed Taiwan invasion is 1000days late.

This reminds of how happy our USN FMF Corpsmen were when chicks took up all the hospital ashore billets and they had to head out on another float with a Marine BLT.

Hey Ivan, guess what? Great news! The Estonians are going to cover your motor T job here in western Ukraine. We are going to be able to send you back to the trenches!

I really suspect Matthew Loh was never a grunt.

None of those countries has any battle plan beyond “cry to U.S./NATO for help.”

So they want to get their citizens killed and risk direct attack on Estonia. Seems that if they entire into hostilities, they become a legit target of Russia. Not my problem, not our problem. Just don’t involve us in Estonia!

And I wonder how many are quickly leaving the country for vacations elsewhere to be out of reach of the government?

They could kick it off around the election in order to play games and influence it.
They tried to get it started when ukraine launched the missile into another nation and claimed Russia did it.
Been waiting for them to claim our “advisors” dying was grounds for war.

For some time now I have been predicting NATO troops in open combat in Ukraine against Russia before the election

IMHO it must be happening by October, 2024

Let’s hope and pray that I am completely wrong

But England, France and now Estonia...
