Hopefully the European weather will be colder next year. They can use solar power and windmills to keep warm. They made their bed, now they can sleep in it.

Me too.
I was hoping the Euros would get pissed off enough and get rid of their Greenies. But it sounds like they got a pass this winter.

They didn't freeze. They just had to pay twice as much to heat their homes thanks to Biden's failed sanction war and because we blew up the Nord Stream pipelines.

Many European, especially in Germany, have the right to hate our guts as a result.

Neither have the Germans either, for various reasons specific to them. One is government subsidies.

sounds about right

using the 3:1 injured/killed ratio, that would mean about 70,000 dead Russian troops ...

over an area the size of Maine, and in less than a year ...

and it’s still not settled ...
