321 tanks is a lot of tanks. I think Russia is in trouble. Europe is actually starting to step up.

I don't think the "Putin will use nukes" argument is being used by those who want to defend Ukraine. It's being used by those who are afraid to "poke the bear."

Step back and honestly ask yourself if you've been duped by their lies on other topics before, and then consider that maybe - just maybe - there's more you don't realize you're being lied to about. Chances are that the mainstream narrative on Ukraine is cut from the same bovine excrement cloth as the other mainstream narratives. Believe it or not, it's possible to believe that leaders of both Russia AND the United States are corrupt.


G4L, you have fallen into the trap of "the Democrats and the Republics need to disagree on every issue." Also known as, "I'm a Republican, so therefore I'm required to believe [xxx]."

The Democrats are lying pieces of shit, no argument there. My thoughts on Ukraine and Russia have nothing to do with the Democrats.

You know how we gun folks like to use the Nazis for our arguments against gun control? "That's how the Nazis started, they took away everyone's guns." Well, I see Ukraine in a similar light. "That's how the Nazis started, they rolled tanks into Poland."

I don't believe that Russia is a benevolent force, just there to liberate their cousins who are being oppressed by a horrible Ukrainian regime. I think they are there to conquer Ukraine, and try to regain some of their former USSR glory.

If Ukraine isn't worth fighting for, how about Romania? Poland? Germany? England? Canada? How close do we let them get, and how much of the world do we allow to become USSR 2.0, before we decide it's worth fighting for?

Oh, they speak your language, therefore you need to annex and/or invade that territory? And you'll just stop there at the well-defined line where the language changes, right?

You left out Afghanistan and Tibet. Why? China killed way more people than the USSR ever did and is exponentially worse.
Libs would look at the list you wrote and point out you listed all primarily ethnically Caucasian countries, now come brown/yellow people don't make the cut? Of course I don't think your a lib but I am still amazed we're fighting a war primarily at the agitation of liberals and given the racial disparity in who they help vs who they don't that contradicts 99% of their ideology it seems crazy.

Also, no thoughts on the emails in Hunter's laptop that now connect to classified docs on Ukraine that daddy gave him illegally in 2014?

What are you looking for here?

Hunter and Joe should probably both be in jail. I'm on your side on that topic.

My thoughts on Ukraine/Russia have absolutely nothing to do with the Bidens.

Well, no. They and other actors in his and Obama's admin have been driving events there even to include the color revolution. They have everything to do with it, and profiting from it.

Except that were involved with destroying our currency for Ukraine because of the Dems... as opposed to Afghanistan, Tibet, etc.

Not with the wrong people in charge. What happened to auditing the money sent? Oh that's right, calls for that dried up when the sports cars and yacht photos started getting posted.

Let's not be suckers, and worse, let's not be suckers to be used getting into WW3. Double fucked.

Actually, Steve, the fact that Republicans and Democrats alike are aligned on this issue is what concerns me the most. When the two parties focus their energy and power together, they can get a lot done. The problem is, they both lie to further their own agendas, one of which is to enrich themselves at the expense of the taxpayers. And I don't doubt for a second that there are some seriously corrupt Republicans who are backing the mainstream narrative on Ukraine for their own selfish reasons. So I'm not approaching this as a Democrat vs Republican issue, but rather as a government vs citizenry issue. I don't trust the federal government to tell us the truth on virtually ANYTHING anymore; they have betrayed that trust far too many times. I think this Ukraine situation is also a tangled web of lies, to cover up scandals and corruption. Keep your eyes wide open on this one.

Why does the US have to be the one to step in and spend our blood and treasure? If this was happening on our continent, maybe I'd agree, but it's not. Let the European NATO countries step up more - I'm done being their military sugar daddy.

On that we can agree.

The only thing worse than our federal government is our state government.

Best solution. Make Ukraine a US territory.

Yes, it would likely trigger WW3. But what's the difference if nukes flying today or a year from now?

I believe nukes are Putin's end game.

You need trained crews that can act in a coordinated manner with other tanks and branches, e.g. infantry, air support. This requires continual combined arms exercises to practice this. In addition, do their radios talk to each other (radios are not straightforward nowadays) in a secure manner? In addition to their other gear?

Are there recovery vehicles trained to ascertain repairs and evacuate to a secure place with the crew?

Are spare parts managed to have enough on hand for common repairs but to know what to order when something unexpected happens?

Is there a fuel train ready and available to fuel these monsters? With trained fuelers, and appropriate vehicles? Where do they get this fuel?

Even with a trained military with a secure line to the rear in good times, it takes time to properly maintain equipment, in addition to returning vehicles to operation. Adding different militaries to the mix, with different tanks, it's going to be more difficult.

Just a few thoughts, I'm sure there are many other considerations I haven't considered.
