The Ukrainian Russian Bloodbath?

02 Dec 2023 20:47 #11 by ramage
The U.S. continuing to support the war in Ukraine is beyond comprehension. KIAs MIAs, and POWs during the counteroffensive were conservatively estimated at 125,000, on the Ukraine side.
Ukraine has said that 1.1 million + have been lost since the beginning of the conflict. What is left of this country? Keep in mind that Russia has been scrupulous in not bombing Kiev and other major cities.

At what point are we enabling more death and destruction? Does Ukraine have to ask themselves how many more of our men and women die to get back that last 10% of their nation? And Russia's population has been crashing for decades, why are they still killing the few young left in massed human waves?

Per the WSJ, Ukraine might finally have got smart. They are now choosing to build fortifications rather than attacking Russian prepared trenches.
And Russians themselves may be starting to wise up, tired of dying in infantry clashes with limited support, they are starting to surrender in droves. It might be better spending our money offering a $5,000 bounty for any new Russian deserters.

Correction, it is the Ukrainians that are surrendering and tired of fighting. But not to worry they are now conscripting any male under the age of 70 and also women, both are going to the front line without any significant training.
Recall the expression, don't throw good money after bad, minus 10% for the big guy.

The money that the U.S. is giving to the Ukraine is the only thing keeping this conflict going. A general in Israel stated that Israel is totally dependent on the U.S. to keep the invasion of Gaza going.
Where else can we find a war to fund? Armenia? Niger? Taiwan?

I think we're already sending our hard earned deflating dollars to Taiwan, or did I hear that wrong? I think it's a 4 year deal that goes up to 2 billion a year before China even fires a shot... then we dump the big money on another hopeless cause like Ukraine.

It's amazing how many wars started and have US dollars going into them since Trump left office. The Abraham Accords didn't interest the media but these wars are great for ratings. You'll also never hear anything from the msm that discusses WHY all this world chaos is happening and if the state of our leadership has anything to do with it.

It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy
