Russia took Kupyansk in early 2022 and lost it in September. They have been attacking the city relentlessly since then. Now they have half of a wrecked city if you can believe them.
Three years and how many deaths to get a few square miles along the front and JB is spiking the football
It's amazing. The Russians can't take a town the size of Slidell and people are posting like it's Normandy.
Again, it took the US and her allies ELEVEN MONTHS to go from Normandy, France to Berlin. The Russians can't take a town in three years and they think they're winning.

That is a stupid assessment, Navalny was as much about restoring the old borders as Putin is

Sounds like good neighbors to me.
Hell, if some dumb drunk started sending his drones over my property I'd want to know, too.

The one that was a part of Russia in the past 50 years or so? The one that overthrew their pro-Russian government,, threatening Russia with loss of access to Crimea? That one?
Nothing in your response justifies an invasion.

Same group of people in the same place doing the same shite they always do. But they used a different name and Leopold was completely thrown off the scent
Just not a serious person. Sorry.
So, conversely, when you have told me and others "uh... Russia/Putin is not the Soviet Union?'

I'm not saying spend 0 on defense. But If the only reason you're doing something is to prevent something that won't happen.... That isn't a good reason
You don't realize that the less you prepare for something the more likely you make it that it will happen? That's basic logic.

But European countries need to be prepared for an invasion. Right? Imminent only if there’s evidence of s as build up near your borders. But how much difference is there? Your defense needs to be strong and ready to go on short notice edprcislly is a neighbor had shown a propensity to attack their neighbors.
Don't be silly. Look at a map. The biggest threat to Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia is Venezuela!

Isn't this what NATO is for?
It's not just some collective strength thing. It spreads the risk out among everyone in it so countries in more danger won't have to over invest in defense and suffer elsewhere
NATO was to let the US control the security/defense plans of Europe, primarily in the interests of the US.
Now... it's probably no longer that...

Damn leeches
Just as we designed it. We took a continent of countries that had been fighting amongst themselves for 1000 years - with the last two big bust ups really being a pain in our arse - and lulled them into complacency.
Most of them were not strong enough on their own to make trouble with their neighbors... and they had little reason: they were all security partners together, and we made it much easier for them to trade with each other for things they needed rather than try to invade each other and steal it.
And the best part of all, our nukes protected them, so we didn't have nuclear proliferation. This was a very, very, very good thing.
The social programs neutered their homegrown Communist movements and parties, preventing them from taking over among a population in poverty because of WWII. What exactly pitch did they have left? "We'll give you universal health care, BUT with less personal freedom!!!"
NATO and European Socialism and Globalism was in our interests and we set it all up.
What changed is that American corporations got too greedy and used it all against the interests of American workers, and after the USSR collapsed American workers snapped out of the spell Reagan had put them back under to buck up and take one for the team in the fight against the evils of Communism.

Drones apparently have crossed into Poland from Ukraine via Belarus. Putin just probing probably to see what hes working with.

50/50 they are Ukrainian drones. They could use some attention the news cycle is pretty dead at the moment

You realize these missiles are specifically targeting women and children, right? That schools, hospitals, old people's homes and such are a part of the Russians formal strategy, right?

Incorrect. You must be confusing Ukraine with Gaza

No. I am talking specifically about Russia. It's so pervasive that the Russians post on Twitter the footage of themselves doing it:
Russian Embassy Posts Bombing Children's Hospital on Twitter
Twitter Link Video Russians Posted Bombing Man and His Dog
I'd be happy to share more.....

Once Again, Incorrect. Ukraine civilian deaths are low compared to other conflicts. UN OHCHR data shows ~13,900 civilian deaths in Ukraine since 2022. Compared to Iraq (~200,000+ civilian deaths, per Costs of War) or Syria (~300,000+)
