Coincidence that allegedly “the worlds best sniper” has joined ukrainian forces? I imagine there are a lot of badasses over there helping the good guys that we just don't know about yet. This. The SOA def is on the ground.

Fuck Ukraine. I hope Russia does win. It will be one less place for our politicians to launder money. That is what would be best for us. See Hunter Biden. On the surface, kinda crude but you are right about Ukraine being a shithole of corruption but when I read This post it reminds me of SNL of the 70’s, Point/Counter Point…….”Jane you ignorant slut”

It looks like Ukrainian Marines attacked a Russian controlled air port over night and destroyed a bunch of aircraft and infrastructure.
The more I read various accounts of the conflict, sanctions, military strategy, mental state of mind of the combatants, popular opinions of the civilians, etc... from various sources, I will be surprised if this war goes on much more than into April. I think there is a strong possibility in just a few weeks it will be over. The Russians are running out of steam.
I read a poll where 92% of Ukrainians believe they will win. 80% of Ukrainians are actually helping in the war effort. Having a positive mental outlook is super important in situation like this. The Russians have nothing to fight for. The Ukrainians have everything to fight for.
Both sides seem to be coming closer together, so like I mentioned in an earlier thread, I think one of the scenarios of a settlement is going to come to fruition. Russia will save face, and Ukraine can claim that they stood up face to face with the mighty Russian Bear and kept their homeland.
After that, the western democracies will rush in with massive amounts of foreign aid to rebuild Ukraine. Ukrainian government officials will get rich off our tax money and our "leaders" will get rich off our tax money funneled back to them from Ukraine.
Everybody's happy, everything goes back to normal, except all the families of all the people who got killed and the people who lost everything they had.
As the World turns... Man, I certainly hope you are right! But I see it different, I think you are spot on in the moral of the Russian troops, Ukrainians fighting for everything, the Russian troops are basically just going through the motions. The one wildcard in this is Putin, he isnt wired to make this massage buildup, move in, then back away, he is a narcissistic dictator that doesn’t care about the losses they are taking, doesnt care the cost of putting the old Soviet Union back together, Nor does he care about what the world thinks about what he is doing. This has been a calculated move he has planned since Nov, 8th, 2020. He’s crazy but not stupid. He has known Biden is weak, if the US does nothing, nobody else will either, other than tough talk. The sanctions are absolutely meaningless, The Russians have lived with Sanctions in one form or another for years. Brandon talks tough in front of the cameras, but behind closed doors the US still has Russia negotiating (ON BEHALF OF THE UNITED STATES!) with Iran on re-enacting the nuclear deal, there is still cooperation between NASA and the Soviet space program. Russia hasn’t missed a beat selling oil to Europe, (their main export) I dont see Russians giving up, this will grind down into the streets. The Russians have the numbers on their side, they will eventually take Ukraine, the rest of the world will talk big, do nothing and things will settle down until Putin decides to make his next move and it will start all over again. Putin has 2.5 years to put his plan together before someone with kahonies is back in the white house. I could be wrong and honestly hope I am..Time will tell.

the battle of voznesensk tells the tale of how vulnerable russia's battalion battle groups are to the apparently very well commanded ukrainian forces. story available on wall street journal. i don't subscribe so i couldn't cut and past. 30 of 43 tanks destroyed or abandoned. the lack of proper infantry screening is playing into ukrainian tactics with st. javelin.

Fortunately, the majority of American citizens disagree with you. I think the majority of Americans agree that we should mind our own business and stop trying to be the worlds police. The media says otherwise, but that's just more propoganda. Why should we send 14 billion dollars of our money to people that we know nothing about? there is nothing 'noble' about that.

One thing is for sure drone and missile technology has definately changed the face of modern warfare. I know anti-tank missles are not new but the power and range of systems like the Javelin are a game changer. Now one soldier can carry a shoulder lauched weapon that is A.) completely fire and forget; B.) can defeat the armor of any known tank, C.) has an effective range of 2500 meters and D.) has a 95% hit probability. The Russians may untimately win out but it's dang sure going to cost them a chitload of equipment.

Fuck Ukraine. I hope Russia does win. It will be one less place for our politicians to launder money. That is what would be best for us. See Hunter Biden. Fortunately, the majority of American citizens disagree with you. Yeah I don't want the US to put boots on the ground or expand this in any way that could lead to WW3, but at the same time I don't get all the Russia support I see at too many of the conservative websites I visit these days. I don't like Biden either but my dislike for him has in no way caused me to become enamored with Russia or Putin. Ukraine may have it's corrup politicians and shady dealings but hell so do we. Would these Puitn ass kissers like to see the US invaded? The Ukrainian people don't want to be under Russia and Putins boot. I respect their right to fight against that outcome. And make no mistake Putin is a rotten piece of ex KGB chit. He would love to see everone in the US dead so he could piss on our ashes. For the life of me I do not understand this infestation of Putin love that has for some reason become kosher.

Keep feeding Guns and bullets till they both exhaust themselves beating the daylights out each other. Ukraine and Russia deserve each other.

For the life of me I do not understand this infestation of Putin love that has for some reason become kosher. Exactly, no US soldiers involved but all the equipment and humanitarian aid they need. Putin needs to go one way or another. As to Ukraine corruption, they are a fledgling democracy and they are learning from us. They are no more corrupt than our own gov't. with Hunter Biden and Little Romney being prime examples. It is really funny to read Americans condemning Ukraine for having a corrupt gov't. when it is our politicians driving the car that keeps them on this road.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.
