These filthy pigs view all Russians as untermenschen and support that ideology.

The Ukrainians actually have said that in the last few days..actually since they have supported the Nazi German view from WW2.

None.

Europe can and should pay for it all. Their back yard.

They could have prevented this war and failed

Stuck in the past conservatives suck down neocon swill propaganda like a drunk on a week long bender. Bring on another forever war Russia, how about Taiwan…oh-oh, I’m getting hard…China!

Hard truth, this is NatoStan’s war and so America got the war they wanted - Problem is, it is revealing the west to be more and more impotent every day. A corrupt political establishment, an economic system based on debt and printed currency. A military that can barely hold its own against a 3rd world rat hole. A toxic culture nurtured by a political class for their own ends means most Americans hate each other more than any supposed boogie man Russia.

“They could have prevented”

This war would of only been prevented by Russia because of its need to invade other countries. Much better that we help Ukraine then we having to fight Russia ourselves. We all benefit by a vigilant world that keeps and maintains the peace. A criminal in the other part of tow is a threat to everyone in the town. And that is exactly what Russia is.

"Ukrainian soldiers are being DRUGGED and forced to fight" Ex-CIA Larry Johnson | Redacted News

Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson: "If you go social media, you see row after row after row of Ukrainian flags fluttering after freshly dug graves. Thousands of them. You don't see that in Russia. So, right there, it tells you right away that the causalities are in Ukraine.

The average age of the soldiers fighting on the frontlines for Ukraine is over 40 years old. That means you might have one or two that are 17 and 18 but you have a lot more that are over the age of 40. That speaks to a manpower loss.

"To put the losses in context, right now it is estimated that Ukraine as lost over 500,000 men killed in action. During WW II, the British, the United Kingdom, it's entire killed in action in both Europe, Africa and the pacific, was 345,000. That was after six years of war."

McCarthy is just the panic of the week. Next week it will be something else. Emotions drive decision making.

Off topic but per Ben Wallace uke forces are now avg age over 40 but they are planning on more young conscriptions

Which is counter to what I hear from someone near the theatre dealing directly with uke forces being rotated out

Much, much better that the EU takes responsibility for their own continent and supports ukraine however they think is appropriate… including any fighting.

If they are not capable of this after +50 years of US aid, they are the biggest welfare state in history and it’s time they grow up and stop sucking on the USA teet.

We have our own border issues and economic issues.

Our border and economic issues are different from this and so are other issues. Russia has been an enemy for over 100 years. The only time they were not when Yeltsin ran thing over there. This is a golden opportunity to end it once and for all and it would be a crime not to do it. Th world needs to be at peace ad it will only happen when the Russian issue is taken care of.

Disagree entirely.

Our border is a defense issue. We are being infiltrated from the border. Our economic struggles make us weak and invite attack.

Russia has been an enemy for over 100 years.

Shadow of their former selves and Trump kept them contained. Not by funneling unlimited weapons and money.

This is a golden opportunity to end it once and for all and it would be a crime not to do it.

Possibly the most foolish and dangerous justification for war I've heard from a Zeeper.

The world needs to be at peace ad it will only happen when the Russian issue is taken care of.

True Straw Man argument. More foolishness. The world has never been at peace. The colors in Europe have been running for 1,000 years. This will never change.

Just take a look at Europe today. Does anyone think England and France are going to attack anyone or each other? Is the USA going to invade Canada, Is Japan going to invade Australia?

The last major country that want to go out and just take over other countries is Russia period. Until they are resolved there will not be a true peace and we will have to keep spending money on armaments for a possible superpower collision. No Russia is the last serious block. You are right that they are a shadow of themselves, but that does not mean they knew that until now. And the more they are defeated the more likely they are to have that sink into their thick skulls. I think I made a lot of sense so I don't think I am being foolish itis more likely you are total fool.
