Yeah man. And all across the globe we can hold hands and drink a coke.

No we cant because of guys like Putin and if we run home what do you think China is going to do?

But listen if you truly believe your country is evil, and you are a true believer, then leave. Problem solved. I certainly would not want to live somewhere I believe is evil. That has to be really frustrating.

My country isn’t evil. It’s leadership is. There’s a big difference.

your admitted goal is power. Those who seek it shouldn’t hold it.
Or we can just not commit atrocities across the globe.

We can protect ourselves and the Western Hemisphere and allow Europe to collapse. Creating a new influx of Europeans to America. That would be the Warhawks best goal.

Ask a more specific questions.

Not all treaties are equal.

All prior recorded history determined this a lie. The more things change, the more they stay the same. There will be war on this planet for one reason or another in some place until the end of man. If by chance war stops with man left on this earth it will be a result of global control of some form of govt and total subjugation of man.

It has been underway for at least a month. You just don’t know what you are looking at. Or you are intentionally not looking.

Ukraine doesn't lack in manpower but it does lack in combined arms and logistics capability from what I've observed. It has artillery, men but limited modern tanks and ground support aircraft (jets and attack helicopters)

I never expected a U.S. style offensive this early.

Special service troopers blow up another bridge near Melitopol, not a single freight train came from Crimea

Ukrainian partisans have blown up a railway bridge under occupied Melitopol.

This was announced on Facebook by Oleksii Arestovych, an adviser to the Presidential Office head.

"Yesterday in the area of Melitopol, our special service troopers blew up a railway bridge. The bridge was partially destroyed. Not a single freight train from Dzhankoi [Crimea] has come to Melitopol in a day," Arestovych wrote.

According to him, it is still difficult to predict when the occupiers will be able to restore the bridge and resume traffic, but "they are in a frenzy."

@AricToler
A few days ago, the Grey Zone (RSOTM) Telegram channel posted photos of a visit to the so-called Wagner HQ in the Donbas (Popasna). Prigozhin may have been there.

The photos were apparently easy to geolocate. Ukraine destroyed it in a HIMARS strike today.

We probably could've skipped the war of 1812 had we been more involved
