When are you going to tell us how this ends? It's been two days. By now, you should have been able to locate Ukraine on a map, and type up a summary of how this ends. Are you scared to say how this ends because your previous predictions were wrong?

Barring Putin's assassination or overthrow this war will either go nuclear, drag on for years, or end in a settlement that allows Putin to save some face.

Those predictions are a big change from the earlier one: "Kiev has 3-4 more days left and then Zelensky will flee to his sponsors in the US.”

It's almost like your predictions follow whatever emotional state you happen to be in, whether it's gleeful, cynical, pompous, bitter, etc.

remember: Russians are right wingers, culturally conservative and autocrats so they are good. They cannot be defeated, just as Trump cannot lose an election. It's just math.

Putin is a devout Russian Orthodox. Those guys are hard-core and make Amero-Christians look like right pikers.

Every morning, Putin prays to the god of Russian Orthodoxy to help him kill Ukrainians. And Russian Orthodoxy leaders pray that Putin rule the Russian empire and guide the Russian serfs in their daily toil.

You guys live in cartoon world

Right. It’s not. Until Ukraine kills a bunch more Russian soldiers, blows up a bunch for Russian tanks, shoots down a bunch more Russian aircraft, and destroys a bunch of Russian infrastructure. The more expediently they can do so, the sooner Russia’s invasion will end. Why do you want to prolong Russia’s invasion?

Oh stop... Putin is a narcissist. Narcissists aren't devout about anything but themselves.

He was proud communist for decades, he was in the KGB, and he pines for the "good ol' days" of the USSR.

Solid propaganda. LOL

Could have been written yesterday, or in March. Same exact narrative.

Only difference, of course, is that as of yesterday compared to March: Russia controls upwards of 25% of Ukraine, several other parts of Ukraine have been destroyed, thousands of Ukrainian soldiers have been killed or flat out surrendered, and the rest of the world has made it clear they are done with the disingenuous US-NATO agenda. BRICS+SA has told the US to “Go F yourselves” multiple times, including just last week, when OPEC+ cut oil production after Brandon begged for an increase. Oh, and how’re those sanctions working out? How’s the Ruble doing? Probably just transitory, I’m sure.

When Russia and China made that joint statement in February- a month before the invasion- the West should have listened.

Today's Russia reminds me of the Germany of the 30's and 40's. Germany lost WWI and Russia previously experienced the collapse of the Soviet Union. Both countries were vulnerable to a war monger authoritarian leader promising to regain esteem for the country (and land too) through nationalistic land grabbing wars. Both leaders ruined their countries and caused much death and suffering.

History repeats.

And how did WWII end for Germany?

For Russia?

Still asking for the perfectly acceptable conditions Russia laid down before they invaded a democratic country?

Or is it another lie to add to the hundreds?

I think you completely missed the point. Ask mommy to explain it to you.
