    Big bro China says knock the nuke **** off. And Donetsk is not Russia. It's Ukraine. And you need to get off their land.
    https://fortune.com/2022/11/04/xi-warns-putin-nuclear-weapons-ukraine-war-red-line/

    Xi called on the international community to “reject the threat of nuclear weapons” and advocate against a nuclear war to prevent a “crisis on the Eurasian continent,” according to the official Xinhua News Agency.

    Its a lot more than the weapons which keeps civilian casualties down. TARGETING has to be able to hit as many military targets as possible and as few civilian as possible. Intelligence must be accurate and timely. And SA (Situational Awareness - where am I? where is my enemy? where are my friends? where are the noncombatants?) must be complete. One HIMARS round can put a piece of shrapnel in every square inch of a football field. It is an AREA weapon, about as far as you can get from a PRECISION weapon.

    Personally, I couldn't care less what happens in Ukraine... or to the Russians. I'm much more worried about fentanyl killing thousands of Americans, open American borders, the illegal immigrant invasion, inflation, gas prices, no baby formula, Americans freezing because they can't afford heating oil and all the rest. No one likes suffering. But we can't save the world anymore.

    So you're equating Russian soldiers with members of a religious order?

    You said "Russians" not Russian soldiers. Did you not realize that not all Russians are soldiers ?!

    Not a mind reader Dayton .. and assuming what's in your head is anyone's guess often flip flopping from one post to the next,

    but whether it was Russians ..or Russian Soldiers .. You are the one equating the Nuns with "Russian Soldiers" .. not me.
    You have it backwards Friend ..the position is the reverse of what you say ... I am not the one apologizing for the rape - torture - murder of American Nuns .. you are the one equating US Nuns with the Russian Soldiers .. minimizing both their deaths as a cost of war .. so don't try to tar me with that stank brush .. you are welcome to keep that one all to yourself.

    No, he's equating Russians with all other humans.

    You know, the Brotherhood of Man?

    I feel like breaking out with a rousing chorus of "We Are The World" or maybe "Koom By Ah"

    Just because you don't care about rape, torture and murder of US Nuns .. and less for El Salvadoran nuns .. doesn't mean others don't. Not everyone is a sociopath mate.

    No one said your lack of obsession was lack of caring. It was your lack of understanding that the act was one of terror - war crime - crime against humanity .. along with the other actions mentioned .. slaughtering inhabitents of whole cities (separating women from children and executing them) -- not a blemish on US policy - acceptable collatoral damage - because you claim these peasants were "supporters of Leftists" equivocating the slaughter of US Nuns - Missionaries and the town folks to the same level as Russian Soldiers .. Which is fine .. you can believe what you like .. is a free country yet despite the desires of you and Blue .. just don't Tar me and others with that stank brush .. you can keep your apologies for genocide and war crimes .. crimes against humanity .. to yourself.

    You were the one who lowered peasants and nuns to the level of Russian Soldiers .. why you trying to blame me ? Does misery want some company ? butt-hurt because position was crucified ?

    Russian backed separatists...you don't get to bullshit your way out of this. Everyone here is well aware of what Putin has done since 2008 ish and beyond.

    You don't get to pump separatists into another nation and then declare the land they are on "yours".

    Apparently you do .. Your beloved tyrant Vlad did .. .. took Crimea -- and now a whole lot more of the Black Sea.

    The Azov Battallion tried to stop dear Vlad .. but failed - even with NATO help the counter offensive done until Spring .. Winter is Nigh.

    In the mean-time - Russia has all kinds of time to secure the new territory... as as time ticks by .. the pressure on Ukraine to negotiate increases .. It is not such a large amount of land .. but that it was the "SeaFront Property" . a tough loss .. but at least they will keep the Odesa corridor ..

    And no one gonna say otherwise for 6 months .. till spring comes .. at which point the colors have settled somewhat on the map .. the war of attrition now favoring Russia ..

    Kherson .. is on the other side of the river the new border being the river ... you should look at a map .. google :) it is a natural border .. good luck taking territory on the other side .. for either side. You can see the new border quite clearly if you look .. gets hazy after the big lake .. source of big river .. into the Donesk region .. the main front line now that Russia has maneuvered to other side of River. towards the Black sea..

    Dreams of taking back Crimea -- a pipe of the Scottsman's bagpipes away ... way way in the distance .. the new reality setting in .. Mess with the Bull .. Da Horn coming your way... its how its gonna be .. this new Reality.

    Now China .. don't look the other way.. cause all this Ukraine war is leaving them unattended .. and everyone knows it ... and everyone knows this is where our focus needs to be .. Pressure to get this Ukraine irritant resolved ... in conjunction with China .. the Environment continues to be neglected .. in particular the Ocean.. Pollution being the number 1 Enviro issue .. concurrent with CO2 emissions .. two horses running towards the abyss .. unchecked at the moment .. fact bringing back Coal .. don't see no green infrastructure on the horizon any time soon .. and folks notice .. more pressure to get this thing done with .. some of the long term pain starting to kick in .. Sanctions have backfired .. benefiting Russia .. thus far . .and also China India and others .. the west taking the pain hoping for short term gain .. but now we got 6 months .. bracing for a cold winter. not much fighting ... so no movement in the war .. but increasing pain on the West ..

    Just how things appear to be going down mang .. chu no wat I mean mang .. ??
