Why wouldn’t Ukraine go all in on this convoy with Drones and Fighter jets?

This seems like the deciding point.

Probably because they have a decided lack of drones and fighters jets while Russia has control of the skys.

No doubt. Look, I come from a family that served from Civil War/WW1 through Iraq part 2 but I didn't enlist.

I am not going to be a key board warrior other than if this was militarily happening here, I regret I have but 1 life to give my country.

Where are the Ukrainian Patriots other than the Ghost of Kiev, the Cougar of Kiev and some dumbass dropping Molotave Cocktails from an apartment window?

Something fricky going on? Something seems fricky compared to prior conflicts. Just saying.

I hear that, but either the media or somebody links a source saying Russia doesn't have control of the skies. For me, I just roll w/ all this misinformation and know we will figure the truth out one day. This whole "war" is weird.

Belarus sending troops, but they aren't, pictures of downed copters or blown up stuff, dead soldiers are years old propaganda or video games, photoshopped pictures.

One big, "I don't take any media reports now seriously"

Is that memorial from the shelling that I have seen a few videos on coming from Ukrainians?

They don't look too thrilled.

My mother just called me a White “supreme-ist” because I said wasn’t sure about this war. Then my only response was to say stop getting your news off The View

I think it’s from the attacks over the years

It appears Russia will soon unleash their full military might on Kyiv. Unless there is a peace deal, we’re about to see a scale of war not seen in Europe since the fall of Berlin.

The 40 mile convoy is expect to reach the outskirts of Kyiv within the next 24 hrs.

Apologies for not being specific but that is what I was referring to was from over the years of attacks. Saw a few of those videos earlier this morning on twitter.

I see lots of articles, is the BBC reliable? Plus BBC can't confirm if it's Nuland's voice.

However, the CATO Inst. article helps w/ credibility...

2014 US Ukraine hypocrisy

quote:

Washington’s conduct not only constituted meddling, it bordered on micromanagement. At one point, Pyatt mentioned the complex dynamic among the three principal opposition leaders, Yatsenyuk, Oleh Tyahnybok, and Vitali Klitschko. Both Pyatt and Nuland wanted to keep Tyahnybok and Klitschko out of an interim government. In the former case, they worried about his extremist ties; in the latter, they seemed to want him to wait and make a bid for office on a longer-?term basis. Nuland stated that “I don’t think Klitsch should go into the government. I don’t think it’s necessary.” She added that what Yatseniuk needed “is Klitsch and Tyanhybok on the outside.”

The two diplomats also were prepared to escalate the already extensive U.S. involvement in Ukraine’s political turbulence. Pyatt stated bluntly that “we want to try to get somebody with an international personality to come out here and help to midwife this thing [the political transition].” Nuland clearly had Vice President Joe Biden in mind for that role. Noting that the vice president’s national security adviser was in direct contact with her, Nuland related that she told him “probably tomorrow for an atta-?boy and to get the details to stick. So Biden’s willing.”

Only seen this posted on some randos account as I am sure twitter is blocking Russian info.
