    UAF was blowing out their old Soviet ammo....now they'll get NATO ammo and hardware.....I suspect Russki body counts to be through the roof.

    That means Biden spends billions defending Ukraine's borders while leaving our own wide open. The fact that his son made millions in the Ukrainian energy market comes to mind. I can't think of any Senate approved alliance or any strategic US interest in Ukraine at all.

    What is our interest in Ukraine?Historically it belonged to Russia and we did nothing. Why now? It's not NATO. What vital US interests are in Ukraine that we need to protect? Nothing but Hunter's bank accounts come to mind.

    Ukraine didn’t have a strong enough military in 2014 to prevent Russia from taking Crimea but in just 8 years they will be able to defeat Russia. Putin has been planning the invasion since 2000 and set up his manufacturing industry to make weapons and ammo and is doing it 24/7 now. What NATO country is doing that? The lie Putin would run out of missiles in 3 days when the war first started was proven to be just false western propaganda.

    Ammunition discipline is a taught skill.

    How many young Russian men are still fleeing the country to avoid inscription?

    Generally, around the world and among logical people, invading another country is an aggressive act.

    A few liberals left early...after that...no one.

    Ammo discipline is a taught skill....yessir...seems the US trainers didn't do such a good job with the ukie nazis as they still randomly shell the civilian areas of Donetsk, the largest city in the Donbass.

    No doubt more ukies left Banderastan than Russians leaving Russia. Well, that is, the ukies that didn't get shot trying to leave. Plenty of those.

    Were you trying to make a point?

    The US is using Ukraine to go after Russia and if Ukraine fails the US won’t hesitate to throw Europe’s NATO forces into the war. Will the US lead the charge is uncertain. Russia has always been the country the US has had designs on which is why NATO continued even after the Warsaw Pact was dissolved.

    The point.

    Defending an aggressor is silly.

    You are defending the US, which caused this entire shitshow. Anything else you want to add?

    That's a civil affair. Russia saw an opportunity to sieze the wife in a troubled marriage.

    It's slimy. They need to mind their business.

    Lol.

    The US as a scape goat for everything just screams of envy.

    Also, your not tough hiding behind a computer pounding away at the keyboard. Just FYI.

    Russia didn’t invade the U.S. or a NATO country. People here in the US could sure use some help. We could protect our own southern border from the invasion. Lots of American think the government a hypocrite.

    Uh huh.

    Just like the Crimea Peninsula and Georgia?

    Odd how Russia keeps attacking countries, and it's everybody else's fault and they are just being defensive.

    That's some kool-aid

    So? Israel was invaded multiple times since its founding. We didn't help them. Hungary was invaded by the Soviet Union in the 1950's... we didn't get involved. Argentina invaded the Falkland Islands in the 1980's... we did nothing. Why should we get involved in wars where we have no official allies in the fight and we have no strategic national interests on either side? There are dozens of wars going on right now. Should we get involved with them all?
