After months in Ukraine training soldiers, Ret Col Andrew Milburn of @TheMozartGroup mercenary firm gets sauced on camera & spills the beans: Ukraine is a "corrupt, fuched-up society" run by "fuched-up people" Ukrainian soldiers "kill dudes who surrendered," commit "atrocities"...
War Crimes. NATO committing war crimes. Providing explicit instructions to all in theatre... no cameras!
It is absurd how many people think Ukraine is this thriving democracy full of wonderful people.
Ukrainians and Russians are the same. They are as different as people from New York are from people from New Jersey. The differences are negligible.
Of COURSE they're committing war crimes. This is how these people always behave in war.
this is exactly the attitude Putin has, and wants Americans to have - that Americans have low tolerance for pain, that we are weak and decadent, that the public will turn against the war. If we go that route, Putin gets what he wants - a quarter of Ukraine and time to rebuild for the next invasion.
Putin thinks time is on his side, and if many of us think like Deno, he is correct.
How much of Ukraine will be left six months from now?
Plenty. The important point is that Ukraine will still exist. You are aware that like 99% of Ukraine is undamaged, right?
Most Americans think that you and the bow tie are whack on Russia and Ukraine. Over half of each political group support either maintaining the current policy or increasing the amount of support.
I do NOT support sending the MAJORITY of it when it's a EUROPEAN war in EUROPE while Europe has as much money as we do. Particularly when Europe only has anything it has because we've already wasted TRILLIONS protecting them since 1945.
Yes, the poll is designed to fool people by asking them to provide answers to questions.
If I'm reading your positions correctly, you support everything that Biden is doing, but you want to reserve the right to complain about the Europeans. Maybe you should go find letsrun.com Europe so that you can air all of your grievances in a more productive location.

It's designed to make stupid people think a majority of Americans want to send infinite money to Ukraine forever because they checked the "I support sending aid to Ukraine" box on a survey.

You've spent so much time yelling about Ukraine winning, that you missed out on how badly Ukraine is damaged.
"An ongoing study from the Kyiv School of Economics calculates that every week, Ukraine suffers about $4.5 billion worth of damage to civilian infrastructure, and the country's total economic losses could rise to around $600 billion."
"More than 11,000 buildings have been partially or completely destroyed in the Kharkiv region alone, according to Ukrainian officials."
"You can see the extent of destruction. Only one figure - 140,000 residential buildings destroyed. This is only data on residential buildings, not to mention the infrastructure"
"UN: Half of Ukraine's Energy Infrastructure Destroyed by Russian Attacks"

No worries, Democrats and neocons will volunteer America to pay for reconstruction with American tax dollars.

The questions are intentionally vague.
You find these questions intentionally vague? They are more specific that your own stated positions.
The USA really does need to let MrZ know that we can't keep this up much longer so he really does need to get serious about giving up a little so we can wrap this up. You won the war since Ukraine is still Ukraine and you are still ruling, but this must start coming to an end, let Putin have something if that will get him out of Ukraine and end this crazyness.
How about thinking about trying to end this, April.....sound good? How about we are here for you until April 1. After that you are own your own.....ok?
Putin thinks time is on his side, and if many of us think like Deno, he is correct.
What, you think it's a bad idea to give an enemy a date on which you intend to quit fighting? What harm could possibly come from that? It's not like the enemy can just change strategy according to that information or anything.

No, everyone knows how happy you and NoName Carmine are about destruction of Ukraine by the Russians. The world media reports on the pain, suffering and terror of Ukrainians almost daily.
You don't have to wait until New Year's to get lost. Do everyone a favor, get a head start, and disappear now.

Bro, you are the one who voted for 4 more years the Iraq war after seeing it first hand. It doesn't get more neocon than you.
John Kerry abandoned his platoon in combat to pursue his political career. But not before he gave himself a few Purple Hearts. There wasn't a single man in my company who didn't think Kerry was useless POS.
You'll notice when specifics are used the majority of Americans all oppose.
Indefinite aid all oppose including 47% of Democrats.
What is the "current level" of aid?
If you actually explained what was happening to reasonable people and gave them specific questions these surveys would say something much different.
The poll confused you apparently. That was a multiple choice question where people had to pick one of threee answers. 40% supported maintaining the same level, but an additional 27% wanted to maintain the same levels while also intervening militarily. So that is 67%, versus only 29% who chose gradual withdrawal.
Russia's military strategy has always been mass casualties and mass artillery.
They aren't losing men because they are incompetent they are losing men because they don't care. Their strategy has always been to out bleed their enemy.
Never in Russian history has Russia negotiated for peace before they lost at least 500,000 dead in a war.
Look how well that strategy is working for these Russian Nazis.

What is the "same level". That's vague. You have no idea how much aid we've given to Ukraine and you think you're informed. You think the average person who doesn't even know where Ukraine is is following this??

and remember, this is the fault of the United States of America and NATO. The might of American hypocrisy knocked over those buildings.
