He invaded cause he and many other countries are getting sick and tired of having their eyeballs screwed out by the hegemony of the the US, NATO and the EU. He got sick and tired of being hamstrung and waged war against via the fiat fake dollar. Then only to be told that if he doesn't follow suit, then he will be stoppped of all banking and monetary transactions globally. Not only that, he didn't won't woke crap at his doorstep.

This is not hard to research if you put some effort in it. Putin is very transparent. He's said for over 20 years that NATO in Ukraine, would be a redline. He is very clear on how he thinks about woke crap and says what he thinks; his actions have proven it.

C'mon man Chancey you need to quit thinking so much and just trust Biden and Co. I mean war is big $$$ and don't you think Biden and his crony buddies deserve to put a little coin in their pockets while spreading communism and wokism to the non-believers??

I hope Marty wasn’t on the Russian ship that went down….

I don't think most Americans hate Russia, just the older ones indoctrinated to hate them do. My mom, who I love dearly, is one of them.

The newest, well run and vetted surveys say that 70% of Americans don't like Russia. 72% of democrats don't like Russia. 69% of Republicans don't like Russia.

Besides our varying feelings towards Russia. You, Waggler, Marty and PCfed and I have pretty similar political views.

What do you actually think I got wrong. Like I said Russia is not overwhelming the Ukraine.

Do you think Russia is overwhelming the Ukraine?

By body count, yes. Whatever the true death count on both side is right now, its the largest killing of European men in 80 years.

By equipment destruction, yes. Do you think the U.S. government is now supplying cluster rounds for NATO 155mm guns because they just "feel like it" or is it that the American and NATO forces are down to critically low numbers of their own "high quality" HE 155mm rounds and are now using up old "cluster bombs" ones...? The U.S. MIC has not built any new cannon munitions plants since this thing started 18 months ago, they've only ramped up production somewhat in the existing plants. Vampires Jake and Vicky want the corporations to fork out the cash first to build new plants and then the government will get around to buying more shells if they can keep massaging Congress to pay for it.

The Germans don't want to see any more later versions of their Leopards burn so are giving the Ukies 1960s Leopard Is. At least when those have a catastrophic hit to the ammo store, the poor suckers inside won't feel much for long...
