  • Yeah, the Russians are winning at the rate of 1000 dead or injured Russians per day and are having trouble press-ganging more young Russian men to be thrown into the meatgrinder. Their own manufacturing capability can’t keep their troops supplied, their losses of artillery and tanks exceed their ability to replenish them, and they’re buying ammunition and light armaments from Iran and China with money they don’t have.

    And their three-day war is well into year 3.

    If Russia is rewarded for its aggression, they are not going to stop with Ukraine. You’re not getting peace by appeasing them, you’re getting a guarantee of more war, more massive civilian casualties, more refugees, increasingly close to currently secure Western countries. Russia will not stop until it is forced to stop.












  • Sovereign countries can’t choose their allies? Really? When long-time neutral countries have decided that not even being neutral will protect them anymore from invasion, your answer is that they should be invaded?

    Russia has the world’s largest land mass of any country, and the longest border. And they think they’re entitled buffer states all along that border? How is that in the interest of the people in those neighboring states? Most of them have already experienced the joys of having a Russian boot on their neck, and have voted with their feet to control their own destinies instead.
