That would be like National guard troops from Tennessee being sent to kill those in Kentucky.

Or like Massachusetts militia being sent to kill Virginia militia.

Civil wars are among the nastiest and bloodiest.

Dr. Lee Merritt does an interesting 10-minute section on Ukraine, starting at the 25-minute mark here:

“The propaganda is getting deep.”

I’m waiting for the stories about them Ruthless Red Menace Stormtroopers marching into veterinary hospitals and stealing incubators from Ukrainian kittens, stomping the kittens to death - then using their lifeless little bodies to make Kitten Flavored Vodka.
In response, the Ukraines organize a prayer chain for the invaders, make them borscht and shower them with lovely gifts.
This makes the now-repentant murderous invaders throw themselves on the ground, rend their garments while screaming at the heavens, “Blast that Andrei GromykoKhruschev and his 5 year plan!!!”.

Trump Supports Ukraine. Missed that one.

Could it be that sometimes whom to support is obvious to everyone, even people you disagree with?

Ever hear of the enemy of my enemy is my friend?

Thank you and YES! Putin/his minions are telling the Russian people how “evil” Ukrainians are. These acts of kindness, that will no doubt be related back to the families of these men, won’t go unnoticed.

Not every event in the world is about US domestic policies.

We have unbelievable things happening like notorious peaceniks Germany and Sweden sending large arms shipments now because even they understood that Putin is moving to recreate the once dead evil empire.

Zelensky’s message: “Come on in, America. Bring your guns and missiles with you, but you won’t need them because Putin’s already on the run.”

True?

I have heard this indirectly from people on the ground who are traveling through the Russian lines, and are being solicited for bribes of money or food to pass through. The stories that I am hearing from non political folks mirror the fact that the Russian troops are young, inexperienced, and were not told a good story as to what the hell they were doing there. I suspect that the morale is getting lower by the day.

Umm....the gov’t, or the PEOPLE?!! I don’t care anything about what those corrupt persons support. My only concern is those innocent lives being shattered. Unbelievable the attitudes of some of those posting here. Yeah, I get it. Ukraine is in the perfect location to get into Russia. It’s location, location, location as they say in real estate that all those politicians and entities in your post care about. Not one of them give a rat’s backside about the people. My reason for posting this article was to get our focus on the real, human issue here. Those being affected by the decisions of war mongers and the filthiest of the filth in power in this country as well.

All the wrong people and entities are pushing this.

Trump-”The Russian attack on Ukraine is appalling. We are praying for the proud people of Ukraine. God bless them all”. The whole world is condemning Putin and congrats some Stan countries support your position and Noam Chomsky.

quite abruptly this time, to Ukraine=Good Putin=Bad.

BECAUSE Putin invaded a free neighboring country of 44 million. No more bs of protecting Russian nationals.

So what if he is. I don’t think that was his point tho. It’s starting to Sounds msnbc when people vilify others for having an alternative view point. Reminds me of fighting during Covid. Calling others conspiracists because they didn’t agree with Dr I am the Science.

>location, location, location

Even that is not important nowadays. The importance of the Western Eurasian Steppe has greatly diminished after the armies don’t move on horses anymore.

Russia is lying about being worried about its security. Putin has said many times that he wants to recreate the empire.

20% of Russians aren't ethnic Russians but Tatars, Turks, etc. Not surprised a Russian mostly conscript army would have an even higher percentage of these ethnic minorities.

“Russia us in league with China and Iran, two countries that are our mortal ENEMIES. Let’s support Russia over the people of the Ukraine.”

America IS SCREWED when this many can’t make such an obvious choice on their own as to which side to be on here.

Speaking of confused and scared...where is Zelensky and why isn’t he putting a stop to this war?

Why not ask instead why the invading Putin isn't putting a stop to this? He's the one who is invading another sovereign country.
