Absolutely not true for many reasons. One of them being that if they let Russia keep what they occupied, it will give Russia time to regroup and keep going.

Number 2, they’re torturing and killing those who don’t support the Russian regime.

So yea, while “stopping the bloodshed” sounds good in theory (That’s why Trump keeps repeating it), it will only embolden Putin and give him time to strengthen his forces and attack again later. This is appeasement and it doesn’t work.

Yea, what a POS he is for pretty much admitting this. Not that we didn’t know this already.

Yea, that infuriated me.

You’re absolutely right. That’s why they’re surrendering en masse. Because they had no intentions of being involved in any war.

If nothing else, it makes it harder for Russians to shoot missiles into Kharkhiv, as they’re being fired from Kursk. Believe me, the Ukrainian military know way more than any of us do and are at a much better position to make calls as to what is and isn’t an “effective strategy”.

Everyone learns as time goes, Russians AND Ukrainians. Everyone has to adapt their strategies sooner or later. It’s the reality of war.

You don’t know what their plans are or what they “hoped” for. The truth it, Russia is sending missiles on Kharkhiv from Kursk. If nothing else, making it harder for Russians to shoot onto Ukrainian territory is a win in and of itself.

Russia is using this territory to shoot missiles into Kharkhiv. At the very least, it’s creating a “buffer zone” to make it harder to shoot into Ukrainian territory. Believe me, the Ukrainian military knows way more than we do and are at a way better position to make decisions than you and I are.

Experiencing your native country at war changes your perspective on A LOT of things. It makes it easier to understand the wars of the past, and also, puts them in perspective…amongst many many other things. I will consider watching that documentary if there is no actual gore in it, because that’s not something I am willing to watch. My relatives are physically ok right now, but they’re angry and emotionally drained. It is scary seeing them talk about a recent nearby explosion and making sure everyone is ok.

But yea, it doesn’t matter who was “right” or “wrong” prior to war. As soon as you invade, everything prior to that gets overwritten and you’re 100% the bad guy, no matter how you justify it.

I’m Ukrainian who has lived in the US for almost 30 years. Only now, after Ukraine has bee invaded, did I realize what having that yellow ribbon in “support of our troops” meant. It doesn’t matter what kind of “altruistic” reasons you assign to it. Any time a country invades another, they are the bad guy because ANY war means the deaths of innocent people and should be avoided at all costs, no matter the reason.

It would be so cool to get one to develop that’s even close to the size as the one on reddit. Ever since I got off Reddit, I’ve missed those subs a lot. But I REFUSE to go back.

I love noncredibledefense and get a lot of my news from there. But unfortunately it’s not as active as on Reddit, but I REFUSE to go back there. We need to do something to recruit more people.

It sounds really weird to me too!!!

Yea, me too. It’s an effective workaround but I believe you shouldn’t have to do it.

I mean, I kinda knew that there is a way to do it (I’ve looked it up already). I just feel like it’s way too complicated for such a simple tasks.

Thanks!

Is it available for iOS? The native podcast app is unbelievably confusing.

Wow, I’m surprised I’ve never heard this before.
