I hate to sound like Country Joe…but it’s one two three, what they fighting for?
I haven’t a clue
Putin doesn't recognize the right of neighboring Ukraine to exist as an free and independent country.
Would you rather live in a Russian empire? Or would you rather be an independent country?
“what they fighting for?”
The Ukrainians are fighting for their country, their families, and their homes.
The Russians are fighting to Make Russia Soviet Again.
I try to balance my Ukraine news, so I listen to Col Doug MacGregor every now and then. He regularly makes the point that this all could have been avoided if Ukraine had declared itself a neutral nation a few years back.
He also points out the folks like john mccain and Lindsay Graham were promoting war against russia years ago. I remember a clip of them promising arms to Ukraine. It was from before Trump, so I’m thinking about 2015.
My sense is that this is a globalist step in forging their globalist new world order. It has pushed russia into the arms of china. It will probably force the strengthening of the eu government authority over their member states.
