Nothing new there. The rich never do the fighting, in Russia or anywhere else.

Two Deeply Inconvenient Truths About Corrupt Ukraine:

1) They have no democracy of any kind.

2) Zelensky is increasingly fighting with a conscript army, as his citizens desperately flee to avoid the draft because none of them want to fight

Ukraine just got $147 million from the EU that was originally meant for Belarus and Russia.

Russia's also down 2 more generals
I'm willing to assign 5% blame to the U.S., 10% to Ukraine. The rest is Vlad. Sorry. Originally Posted by HDGristle

As expected even though the ill informed leftists have tried to pretend otherwise over and over

Zelensky Holds Court With Ukraine's Most Notorious Neo-Nazi

Western media has dismissed evidence of neo-Nazi influence in Ukraine by citing President Zelensky’s Jewish heritage. But new footage published by Zelensky shows the leader openly collaborating with a fascist ideologue who once pledged to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade…against Semite-led Untermenschen.”

Ukrainian President Vlodymyr Zelensky has uploaded a video to his Telegram channel showing him holding court with one of the most notorious neo-Nazis in modern Ukrainian history: Azov Battalion founder Andriy Biletsky.

Ukraine's successfully down at least 2 Ka-52's today. 1 with a MANPAD near Robotyne. That Russia's risking its limited supply and losing then is important.

That makes about 41 of the highly capable gunships since the start of the war.

Because the US got involved and caused a decade of political chaos. All to get a few people rich, clearly including the Bidens. Rehoboth Beach remods and inebriated overnights with high dollar hotties at the Four Seasons come at a price.

This war of choice is 100% Putin's fault and bringing an end to it is 100% his responsibility. Not sure why so many in here refuse to see these simple truths, but that's on them (actually I do know why, but saying it will get me pointed).

Anyway, there is no "peaceful settlement" that involves Ukraine budging a single millimeter. Russia is illegally invading a sovereign nation. Russia, get the fuck out. Period. Originally Posted by tommy156

Ice age level cold, now.

As for fake asthma, yep, that's up there along with pretending to go to college and fleeing the country outright.

Thank you valued poster. Originally Posted by HDGristle

let's be real here .. this shit goes back centuries with these peoples, russia/ukraine. about the same time, 1860's of the US civil war Czarist Russia was conquering what became Ukraine from the Ottoman Turks.



so .. someone give me a good arg on why we're really involved here? classic US regime change? how's that worked out before for the US? not so good.



so tell me why we should keep repeating this mistake?

Ukraine has gained a foothold in Robotyne.

Russia has ceded further land near Urozhaine and are withdrawing further south.

33 different attacks across the line by Russia, no substantial gains.
