The Ukraine War

Then Poot-Poot should NOT have threatened NATO. Self defense.

NK troops are hired mercenaries? LOL !!! Ukraine did the same with NATO countries–hired the troops, etc. How and why they get paid is not up to Poot-Poot to say.

Keep in mind, when this war started, I proposed Putin barter the two things NK is chronically short of, food and fuel, for arms and troops. Does anyone think “rocket boy” sends thousands of troops far away, out of the goodness of his heart?

Meanwhile election results imply major changes in US support for Ukraine.

When will we know details?

And the other war. The noon news here in metro Detroit reported that TFG carried Dearborn, by a considerable margin. The population of Dearborn is 55% middle eastern Muslim. Apparently, the residents of the city were protesting Biden’s support for Israel. They must have short memories, as TFG is much tighter with Israel. Around 3:15 last night, ABC News read congratulatory messages from Macron and “Bibi”. “Bibi’s” message clearly showed that the bromance between him and TFG is in full flower.

The EU and DC will go their separate ways on Ukraine.

Yes, some see Ukraine as an EU issue. So up to them to provide most of the support. Will that be via Nato? Will the US participate or back away?

Oh this war is over, maybe sooner, maybe a little bit later, but over.

And not in a good way.

I saw one young Arab lady in Dearborn explain that, “When Trump was in office, he wasn’t doing the genocide in Gaza.”

There’s a lot to that.

Oh, and I’m pretty sure that the Ukraine War will be settled by Friday without Biden’s or EU involvement.

The Ukraine war is dumb. Flower of youth in both countries is dying.
End it now.

As I said “short memory”. It was only a few months ago when TFG’s son-in-law commented about how valuable all that beachfront property in Gaza would be, if all the Pals were moved into a concentration camp in the Negev.

Recall, it was the current Ukrainian administration that did not bend to US aid being withheld, and deliver the “deliverable”…reference first TFG impeachment. “Retribution”.

I think for SOME Arabs and Latinos need to remember you had dictators who murdered your family members and now you are here. Don’t bring that crap.

A super majority of Palestinians have peace and security with Israel. Those that don’t have been at war with Israel for 75 years with Russian backing.

5 wars in the Middle East region, Gaza is the least of them if you care at all.

If all you want is bigotry against Israel knock it off.

To the bigots we see you for what you are.

As far as genocide please tell me how there is any genocide at all in Gaza.

It’s a war.

Ever notice lame reporters and college professors send people on wild goose chases? Don’t be used by some of those who speak dishonesty

Biden waged a stupid war and it will be coming to an end is good. I suspect the war will come to an end through negotiations. Biden, and the entrenched political class of both parties failed to understand the mood of the people. They should have started the peace negotiations at least a year ago. Now complaining about “not in a good way” is shame. Ukraine might cede some territory so that Putin can claim victory and everybody can move on. It is what it is.

The bigger lesson for Europe and the world is stop letting, some voters in a US swing states determine your safety. US is not your nanny.

+1.

More importantly, there was a very small probability that this would escalate to a Nuclear WW-III under a Harris admin.

Trump will end this. My #1 reason for supporting him. It will be good for Ukraine as well as Russia and Europe.

Yeah, because conquest via war is a good idea that should be rewarded. When Mexico invades to take Texas back, we should applaud that as well. /s

“The population of Dearborn is 55% middle eastern Muslim.”


I seem to recall,way, way back in 2017, the Prez trying to ban Muslim’s from entering the USA. Remember after it got overturned, listening to a Muslim lady who had relatives in Canada describe how she had been refused entry back into Detroit, from Windsor, and that it had forced about a week long stay in hotels in Windsor before she and her family were allowed back in to the USA.

Apparently all is forgiven in regards to that ban, by the Muslims in metro Detroit. Hey, if they don’t mind, I guess there is no reason for the rest of us to care, right ?

Yep. Appeasing dictators and rewarding their murderous invasions is a great idea.

Yes, let us all recall how Chamberlain saved the world from another cataclysmic war. Isn’t that how it went?

This war has been a SUCCESS for US strategic interests.
The purpose of the Ukrainian war [for the USA] is to bleed Russia, with Ukrainian casualties, accelerating its decline.
We sent Boris Johnson to kill the Ukraine-Russia negotiations in 2022.
Boris whispering into Zelensky’s ear that he would have to full support of the West.
Zelensky obvious did not know the US propensity of tossing allies under the bus. Hungary rebels after stirring then up in 1956, Iraqi Kurd rebel after Gulf War, and S Vietnamese when Congress cut off funding. I’m sure there are more examples.

Exactly what I was thinking. Giving away a slice of Czechoslovakia really solved everything. Even the excuses are the same “the Sudetenland is mostly populated by Germans…the Donbas is mostly populated by Russians”

In a sense all war is stupid. But rolling over for Putin would have been a terrible decision. You might want to study a little history.

Reading Woodward’s “WAR” and it makes clear that, though not perfect by any means, the Biden administration had a good team in place from the State Department to the military to the intelligence community. I have no expectation that Trump will have any kind of truly competent team in place. After all, the man who ‘knows more about everything than anyone in the world’ doesn’t need good advisors, only yes me.
