"His demands are no state secret:

installation of a new Ukrainian government, prohibition of European security forces on Ukrainian soil, reduction or elimination of Western military assistance, and immediate recognition of Russian sovereignty over four eastern Ukrainian provinces and the Crimea.

Yeah...I am fine with all that. That was obvious before the war started. It is where the war will end up regardless but I guess the Dems wanted to kill off a few million people and waste billions of dollars before agreeing to it. Democrats are a death cult.

"So, your current alias seems to fully support Pres Putin's invasion of a sovereign country?
#17 | Posted by LampLighter"

I am against wasting a million lives and billions of dollars trying to stop something as inevitable as the sun rising in the East and setting in the West. This outcome was 100% certain before the first shot was fired and it is still certain today. So, what was gained other than your sacrifices to Moloch?

"So, you prefer surrender instead of fighting for freedom?
#19 | Posted by LampLighter"

There is no reason for US citizens to make a Masada-like stand (or pay for someone else to do so) when the results were certain from before the first shot was fired. You dumb dems still need to square the circle on how Putin is unable to take over the Ukraine after 3 years but is a threat to roll over all of Europe. Or that Biden's tough sanctions on Russia and policy weakened the Russian military to the point they were stripping refrigerators for computer chips and reduced to fighting with shovels yet their military is now stronger than ever. Maybe try to at least make an internally consistent argument.

You mean like the Japanese soldiers did during the Battle of Okinawa where they chose suicide over surrender? I don't find these soldiers to be heroic or morally superior because they refused to surrender in the face of the inevitable loss on the battlefield. You seem different. But, I guess it is easy to take your stance when you don't pay the tax money to support it and it is not you or your family being asked to actually do the fighting.

"We are fighting the terrorists over there, so we don't have to fight them here."

Actually, your liberal judges are fighting tooth and nail right now to keep the terrorists in the country.

"Well, we were doing that until a few weeks ago.
Until Trump decided Putin's terrorists aren't worth stopping.

How many times have the Russians invaded the US in our nation's history? How many terrorist attacks were carried out by the Russians against the US in our nation's history?

By not fighting in Ukraine, do you honestly think that number will change from zero?

"No, I meant like Pres Trump effectively surrendering to Pres Putin before the peace negotiations had even begun.
#25 | Posted by LampLighter"

With a blank check from the US, Ukraine would never offer peace. So, it had to be done. Given Biden's incompetent running of the military, we no longer can just threaten and get actions like in the past - military or economic sanction threats are both ineffective now due to Democrat impotence. So, you can either embrace the actual reality or you can join your Japanese WW2 heroes and throw yourself off a cliff before the Russians invade Chicago.

"Digitally or physically?

Physically - and proven.

What do you have?

Meanwhile, the US knowingly funded Islamic extremists since the days of the Russian Afghan invasion that still carry out terror attacks against Russia to this day. But, we are the 'Good Guys'...

"Wow, you're a ---- idiot. Bye, --------

You have the debate skills of a poop flinging monkey - typical for liberals. Go cry to your mommies. The one with a penis might tell you to man up but I doubt it.

"Ukraine has shown its willingness to fight for its freedom, with the help of weaponry made here in the US by American workers.

That probably explains the 'snatch vans' grabbing guys off the street to send them to the front lines.

Video? Like you think this only occurred 1 time? Are you dense? There are dozens of videos including them snatching up a clearly mentally deficient guy.

"So do most Ukrainian's as shown but their support of Zelensky following trump's orders to capitulate and him standing up to the Dumb and Dumber tag team in the White House.
#38 | Posted by GalaxiePete"

Yeah, so much support that he had to cancel elections because he, and his party, will lose. And when they lose on the battlefield and the ballot box, Zelensky and his cronies will flee the country because he will be afraid of the gratitude of the Ukrainian people.

"Trump is in the process of losing in Ukraine and humiliating himself and the country.
#41 | Posted by Zed"

Trump is not losing anything. The Ukraine war was lost years ago when Ukraine could not launch its spring offensive. Since then, it is just deciding how many lives must be sacrificed to satisfy liberal hubris. What is that number Zed because apparently 1M was not enough. Is is 2M, 3M?

"How many lives would we sacrifice for the defense of the United States in the face of an invader?
The Ukrainians are fighting a patriotic war.
#45 | Posted by Zed"

So the whole, "the village had to be destroyed to save it" mindset from Vietnam. I think you and Zelensky should be honest and admit that you are willing to sacrifice each and every single one of them.

"You care more about dead Russians than Putin does.
#50 | Posted by Alexandrite"

I don't care if it is a dead Russian or a dead Ukrainian. I just want the killing to stop. This is not some moral war like fighting to stop the holocaust. This is simply a territorial dispute after which the affected population can relocate to whichever side they like - as they have done for the last 15 years. No one, not even the whacked-out pro-War Dems believe that Putin will do a genocide against the Ukrainian civilian population like Israel is doing now in Palestine. Yet, you only feel the need to speak out against Putin. Why is that? You think Putin is treating Ukrainians worse than Netanyahu is treating the Palestinian?

Lastly, I find it really odd that you are taking this 'dying to the last man' to defend Ukraine while simultaneously fighting for the US to have open borders and likely would try to imprison me if I used deadly force against a home invader. Surely defending the integrity of my home would be a higher justification than some vacant field half way around the world. Why the double-standard?

"I don't care if it's a 9/11 hijacker or a WTC office worker in a cubicle. I just want the killing to stop.
Um, which one is doing the killing, exactly?

According to Obama's pastor (when he pretends to be Christian), it is just the chickens coming home to roost....so, the USA in Democrat thinking?
