Ukraine is not without military resources

They are 6th in the world with over a thousand self-propelled artillery vehicles, such as large field guns, howitzers, mortar launchers, or some form of rocket/missile launcher and also have 3600 tanks:
Additionally, they are ranked 7th in artillery, with over 2500 towed artillery and rocket launchers.
They also have over 12,000 armored fighting vehicles such as the Stryker M1126.
If the Ukranians don't turn and run, they are going to continue to give Ivan all he can handle.

Your artist’s renderings of equipment that hasn’t been able to prevent the enemy from encircling one of the oldest capitals in the civilized world has me convinced that the great Russian bear is on the verge of defeat

Don’t underestimate that Ukrainian forces have been engaged in a fighting on their Eastern border for years now. This is great experience that hardens troops and prepares them for the combat they are seeing now. Home field advantage is a big deal too. Will the Russians eventually overwhelm them with numbers. Highly likely. But at what cost. And then what? A prolonged occupation. It’ll be endless guerrilla warfare.

Who’s going to support and supply this endless guerrilla warfare? Us? We and the rest of the western world are going to abandon them after a few months like we have every other insurgency we’ve supported. Then we’ll have Cold War two

Our MIC is more than happy to provide the military hardware. CIA is more than happy to provide the cash. These people perpetuate conflict. Look at Afghanistan. 20 years and for what?

If your theory about the MIC is true, another Cold War with an evil empire is much more profitable than supporting a two but insurgency in Ukraine

Insurgency in Ukraine is part of what leads to another Cold War. We had Vietnam and Russians had Afghanistan. Cold wars aren’t really so cold after all.

You know what they don’t have:
Nukes
Or NATO membership

Yep, the Ukrainians are regretting the Budapest Agreement. Ukraine once held the 3rd largest nuclear arsenal in the world.
Now, lets see how much havoc an armed citizenry can cause a country with the largest nuclear capability ever known to man.
That is the propaganda. Yet Putin just wants to get our man out and his man in. the armed Ukrainian citizenry and major infrastructure losses are at a minimum right now.
I wonder why?
