📰News Russia invades Ukraine
- Thread starter DocZaius
- Start date
So apparently Russia has lost a number of Generals in the field (how's that even happen?) and Putin has "fired" others.....
This army doesn't want to be doing this, they're just scared of Putin. This isn't going to end well for Russia. But the more I learn about Ukraine, I care even less about what happens to them

hahahahaha...if it's true.
the flip side of this is that Putin will just bomb the fuck out of more civilians and destroy cities.
Well that's all he really has, right? I mean, his military is getting their ass kicked by a much smaller force. His only chance to "win" is to kill civilians and hopefully make him submit or resort to chemical weapons or some other way to kill in large numbers. Right now it looks like a stalemate.Evil gator said:
I really don't get the end game here at this point. Russia doesn't have anywhere near the numbers to occupy and it doesn't look like the citizens are gonna just accept it. Ukraine has their own dictatorship, only lightly veiled as a democracy. At the moment, it really looks like the only choices are either Putin retreating and given up or WW3. And I think WW3 may be a bit hyperbolic. China and Russia are allies, but their wishy washy attitude seems to indicate that if Russia did something really stupid....China may be smart enough to let them go down for it and not get physically involved.
Side note - I saw an article quoting Biden about imminent use of chemical weapons. Like I said before the invasion, I swear Biden is instigation this shit. Putin isn't taking this yahoos calls. It's pure fear mongering, like he's prepping America to enter a war we don't need to be in so he can say "I told you so" and justify it.
Certainly Biden has bungled a lot of this, and the fact that you had national security, msm and the internet conspire with Dems to bury a now completely verified story about shady dealings of the Biden family with both parties it sadly leads to a logical conclusion that the President isn’t acting in American's best interest.
Not to mention that the Biden energy policy from day one benefits our enemies and screws over allies and more importantly Americans

Oh really? She sure didn't mind doing her best to weaken and fracture our Nation with Trump in office.

you're talking about the 2024 Dem nominee for pres so I'd ask you to be more respectful
Apparently the WaPo and NYT have posted articles demanding America send 85,000 troops to the region and NATO do the same. Liberals continue to force this into WW3. How did the SJW's become war hawks?
Every one of these news outlets, all of them, need to stop posting OpEds as news.

Yeah it's really weird that the traditionally anti-war people are calling to go weapons-hot against the Russkies. It's not like we'd be invading Grenada or Panama - this is a world power (even if it seems like they're ill-equipped for a conventional war).
Furthermore, I know it's popular to side with Ukraine because they were unjustly invaded, but Ukraine is only a few years away from its last revolution and hasn't exactly been the model for being a good world citizen.
Yeah, some liberal troll on a gun FB page tried to troll me yesterday when I called him out on his buillshit. Because citizens don't need guns. He immediately jumped to, "You gonna kill a bunch of ruskies" schtick. I flat out, I don't give a fuck about Ukraine.DocZaius said:
They are exactly the same as Russia, only smaller and they pretend to be democratic.
As usual, the liberals goose step to whatever Biden and the media tells them to. In this case, it's to cover Biden's ass. Somehow liberals don't care that Ukraine is fighting with neonazis or that opposing political parties were jailed or outlawed.
We're risking WW3 why exactly?
What if I told you its possible to realize that Ukraine is corrupt and has issues while still realizing that Russia is far worse and has no business invading and murdering civilians at the same time.
Let's no forget the real villian here: Russian backed environmental groups limiting energy production here and and western countries.
No way russia does this with cheap oil, its their only power.

Of course. I'm just questioning our level of provoking Russia since before this even started.

I’ve been questioning our f’n with most everyone worldwide, notably the ME. Definitely libertarian leaning on this issue, but likely good reasons we do some of what we do, but we’re operating in the red every year to give hundreds of billions away to people that basically hate us. I know this is a very simplistic view of complex issues

ukrainians don't hate us though, my husband was there a few years ago and they are very western.
Tommy said:
Same. I'm not isolationist, but I agree with largely being non-interventionalist. And if we're going to get involved, give us a legit and honest reason, such as "We want their f'n oil". Tell me that and I'm all good.
Fair. No offense to my current lady, but now would be a great time to be looking for a hot Ukrainian brideEvil gator said:
