Thousands of Ukrainians are dead .
Millions more are refugees, forced to flee their homes and jobs to other countries .
Cities leveled , farms destroyed, routine services eliminated or disrupted.
Billions of dollars the US simply doesn't possess ……money desperately needed to help our mentally will and homeless ; gleefully given away .
For the first time since 1962 ……the leaders of two superpowers are openly discussing the possibly of nuclear weapons being detonated in a combat zone .
But it's all a 'bargain ' …..a 'gift '
Ukrainian boys and girls are 'happy and eager to do the work'.
Gotta luv the internet.
It's a gift. Fight the small fight now or the big fight later. Lose a small number of innocents now or a mass number later. Stop the Lebensraum excuses now in Ukraine or deal with a remade USSR with aspirations to never stop growing.
This is a gift. Any chance to hobble a tyrannical regime is a gift.
A 'gift' only to those safely thousands of miles away .
A 'gift' Dems have worked on since Obama .
No and no. The Ukrainians would very clearly die on their feet than live on their knees.
Yeah those sentiments mean so much to grieving families who had their children burned to death or blown apart into fragments .
To those who have watched everything they have worked their entire lives for ….utterly destroyed .
This war is not about any misguided sense of machismo ….not a video game for our entertainment.
It is a tragedy…an avoidable tragedy that the United States had a direct hand in generating .
But most here will only wake up to the realities involved if and when it's US dead littering the ground .
The Ukrainians chose well. God bless them.
You are too geopolitically astute to be unaware ....that if Russia played the EXACT same game involving MEXICO .
With the final result being a military alliance between Mexico and Russia and the eventual placement of nuclear missiles in Mexico , aimed at the US.......
The US administration......regardless if Democrat or Republican ....would react as outraged as Putin . Would we have invaded .....I don't know.
But all kinds of hell would certainly be on the table.
This current nightmare is not 100% on Putin...not by a mile.
And its only the Ukrainian people paying the price.....so far.
May God help us all.
Disappointed you consider me to be a 'simpleton ' .
Guilty as charged with being repetitive.
However this the most dangerous situation our country has placed itself since the Cuban Missile Crises in the 60's .
And most of you younger guys don't have the slightest understanding of what is at risk or the consequences involved .
Worse, you are not remotely interested in evaluating how the US contributed to this ongoing nightmare .
Just the usual ' love it or leave it ' jargon so common during the early years of the Vietnam war.
