Not true. Ukrainians either have or want to leave the Mongol mindset, Russia never has and doesn't want to. The population of Russia is headed to majority Asian and Allahu Akbar due the Slavic Russians have made it the abortion capital of the world.

Incredible bullshoot here. LOLOL!!!!
How many times have you been to either Russia, Ukraine or both?
;) you guys don’t know what the frick you’re talking about. Brainwashed dolts.

Right, nothing but convicts now.

Not all are convicts. The French Foreign Legion has convicts as well. Regardless, the “convicts” are kicking your favorite Nazis asses on the battlefield.

The border issue was broader than that, and the issue was with Spain arising out of the La. Purchase from France ( who repurchased much of the territory FROM Spain).
Because the purchase did not define the western border of the boundary with New Spain, areas arose where no gov’t effectively exercised authority.
The most notorious was near the Robber’s Line ( now “Robeline”) in Sabine Parish.
Here you will find most of the “redbone” heritage, near Zwolle.

I have worked with both. You can trust Ukrainian craftsmanship but not Russian. Unfortunate for me, Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014 and an investment by Ukrainians in Russia to build some chemical plants was cancelled. Specifically GTL plants to turn stranded natural gas too far to lay a pipeline into synthetic crude oil.

Now what about you oh St Pete Troll Farm gobbler?

Good on you for not being afraid to share your stances. You shouldn't have to be ashamed to declare you value American lives over a regional conflict on the other side of the world.

The Poles simply do not stop.

Poland signs framework for 1,400 infantry fighting vehicles

WARSAW — As it continues to splash cash around on new armaments, Poland has signed a framework agreement to purchase almost 1,400 tracked infantry fighting vehicles, known as the Borsuk — Polish for “badger.”

The agreement continues a series of major investments in Poland’s armed forces since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In December, Poland’s top general told Breaking Defense he is looking to spend further, stating “We just took our suitcases with money and [are] going like hell around the world and trying to buy,”

According to a MND release “NBPWP Borsuk will cooperate very effectively with [Land Forces] units equipped with the Korean K2 main battle tanks, which will be delivered to, among others, 16th Mechanized Division”.

The start of the Borsuk program was aimed at replacing the Soviet-era BWP-1 IFVs in the mechanized battalions of the Polish Land Forces. Over 1,100 BWP-1s, delivered from 1973-1988, still form the backbone of 18 battalions (including one in the process of forming and three that are to be eventually equipped with Rosomak APC) — meaning the announced procurement will effectively be a one-for-one swap of the older Soviet equipment.

But looking at the planned increase the strength of the Polish Armed Forces by two additional divisions to six, and the increase in the number of brigades in a division from three to four, as well as the increase in the number of combat battalions in brigades from three to four (which is currently only the case of the 18th Mechanized Division) it is believed the demand may increase over time by several hundred more Borsuks .

are you OK with inevitably sacrificing American lives to do it

Does it matter? 9 months, 12 months, 18 months? It's a hypothetical question to see your stance on the issue.

damn. Doesnt seem very inevitable

It's very real. America has gotten too deep in this shite now to just let Ukraine fall to Russia. If Russia fully commits to this and starts to take more ground in Ukraine and realistically takes positions to move on Kiev, America will have to engage with manpower at some level to save face. It's a real enough scenario to consider how comfortable you are with it.

Do you draw the line at American lives, or if sacrificing American blood is what it will take to drive back Russia, are you OK with that?

Big Daddy Z said it best. America can either more strongly commit to support him, or we can send out kids there to die in a year or two.
