You really think Putin expected to be engaged in a never ending war on it's own border with Ukrainian troops shooting Patriot missiles and driving Abrams tanks?? 🤣🤣
Hell No... He saw how easy it was to take Crimea, watched the Jan 6 attack, the debacle of a withdrawal from Afghanistan and thought the time was right to make his move with a weakened/divided United States.
He thought he'd roll in there and have a Putin Puppet in place within 2 weeks.
He totally underestimated Biden, NATO, Zelenskyy, and the will of the Ukrainian people to have a future democracy in line with Europe and the U.S.
Putin has demonstrated that his Russian army is a paper tiger. Russia's standing in the world is dog sh** and he has no other choice now but to keep this disaster of a war going till someone puts a bullet in his brain.

He totally underestimated the architect of the Afghanistan disaster? Lol.

He thought Biden would roll over, NATO would choose cheap gas and it would be a giant Crimea land grab. Biden is a senile old man that screwed up the Afghan withdrawal but he's just smart enough to know that appeasement never works with tyrants. Two different things can both be true at once.
Dumbazz Putin bit off more than he could chew and united NATO like no other time since the cold war period.
He F'd up.

I don't know, but I know they have control of the area they were after from the start. You missed the point though, Ukraine is not going to drive them out without US or European troops involved.

You think 31 Abrams tanks are going to do the trick? Don't you see whats happening here, or do you just not care? We're fast approaching the point of no return, is Ukraine worth thousands of dead young US soldiers? This won't be like Iraq or Afghanistan, Russia has a modern military. This is a losing proposition we've gotten into.
 
No one wants to say, "They'll lose if we don't get this to them," out loud because it's demoralizing. But it's true.
Those 31 tanks won't make much difference.
This is awesome 😂🍺
I hit 3 stages of laughter on that one. You know when each one kicked in. Only thing funnier would be a video of her watching that for the first time.
Vaccinations have saved millions of lives.
Little late with this, but I agree. Vaccines used to save lives and some of them still do. Not the Corono vaccines though. Tricking the body into producing an antibody is one thing. Messing with DNA and RNA is a totally different arena.

This is a manufactured virus that may or may not have been purposely released on the public. I doubt that it was created for shits and grins, just because they could.

Don’t worry. Joe’s advisors may have mismanaged literally everything they’ve touched since he was elected but they won’t screw this up.

And if you doubt that, you’re a transphobic white-supremacist anti-vaxxer so you should educate yourself on why you’re wrong.
 
Kennedy is notorious for his questions about the Constitution. This judge should have been prepared for these questions, as I am aware that judicial nominees go through prep sessions to deal with these very types of questions. Having said that, these US Constitutional questions are not things that would ever come up in her work as a State Court judge. She was definitely incompetent in answering these questions. But I have no clue if she's incompetent in her state court judge job and neither do you.
I wasn't sure about Article V, but I immediately knew what Article II deals with. According to her answer, I could just as easily be a judge. Tell me your story, they tell me their story, I go back and look up the law to see what my decision should be. I am qualified because I know how to read.

That is absolutely correct. Bill is a hand wringer. He's been afraid of Putin for the past year.

That's your opinion, it is far from fact. The Russian people are getting sick of this, the people around Putin are getting sick of this, Russia is struggling with supplies, money, troops and are totally devoid of morale. It isn't likely to require anything more than supplies for Ukraine to eventually destroy every Russian soldier in Ukraine. Just wait and watch.

You'd be surprised.

Yes, atleast 5-10% of the Ukrainian movement against Russia is rooted in that level of hate. The rest of the nationalists were/are sympathetic enough as a means to an end.

I posted some articles/clips ofUkrainian Jews in the now defunct war thread that triggered some mod so much it got the post deleted and the thread locked, so I won't go there, but the loser pictured here next to McCain was literally the head of the national socialist party, named the Ukrainian equivalent of Time Man of the Year.

Who told you it was fantasy? Just something you read, right? That's the fantasy... the good guys vs bad guys media narrative is the fantasy. I've personally looked these sort of people in the eye; they still exist to a far greater degree in Europe than you realize.

Simple question. How many Jews have died in Ukrainian death camps? What percentage of 6,000,000?

They basically won't get used at all. Abrams contain several top secret proprietary systems that will have to be removed, they run on jet fuel, they require a complex logistics infrastructure, and training is completely different than anything the Ukrainians have used before. All of that is months if not years out. The only reason the Abrams mean anything is because Germany said they wouldn't approve Leopards until the US approved Abrams. And as the Leopards are German made they have to approve all transfers of them, even ones owned and in other countries that had already agreed to send them to Ukraine. So those 31 Abrams are meaningless in terms of actual use, it's just that they allowed the flood gates to be opened for Leopards to start flowing in from all over Europe. Expect Poland, Finland, Spain, Norway, and the Netherlands at least to send some.

Russia has exactly what they set out for from the onset, and they won't be driven out unless the West uses it's military to do it.
No they do not, they absolutely do not have what they set out for and if they didn‘t employ human wave attacks due to their blatant disregard for human life, their very minimal gains would be nonexistent.

Aside from a gratuitous mention of J6 notwithstanding, maybe he became confident that Trump would not be POTUS to cause him to not invade...so if that day was the day Biden was going to be in charge then I am with you. Certainly AFGHAN retreat showed him that Biden was clueless and that he could do what he wanted in Ukraine without opposition. He likely did not anticipate the US paying for everything as we have. I say that as I support what we are doing....fight thru the Ukraine military rather than ours. Putin is a paper tiger with Oil and nukes. Hopefully someone in RU will take him out...or cancer.
 
Let me google that for you.

Until the fall of the Soviet Union, it was believed that about 900,000 Jews were murdered as part of the Holocaust in Ukraine.


So to summarize:
Between 1941 and 1944, more than a million Jews living in the Soviet Union, almost all from Ukraine and Belarus, were murdered by Nazi Germany's "Final Solution" extermination policies and with the help of local Ukrainian collaborators.[8] Most of them were killed in Ukraine because most pre-WWII Soviet Jews lived in the Pale of Settlement, of which Ukraine was the largest part. The major massacres against Jews mainly occurred during the first phase of the occupation, although they continued until the return of the Red Army of the Soviet Union.[8]

I clearly have been talking about The Ukraine, not the old USSR or by Germans. We have people who are angrier at the Ukraine than they are Germany. GERMANY is where the Nazis came from. Lets bomb them.
 
The larger the paddle the less the pain. But schools did not paddle to hurt a student physically it was done to embarrass or humiliate them in front of their classmates.

The big problem for a student was when they got home. When a parent found out their son or daughter was paddled, they would paddle their kid much harder than a school ever thought of doing it. I don't know of a single incident where a parent told the school they could not paddle. ( I attended public schools from 1949 to 1961 )

My mother and father told the teacher if I was paddled to let them know. I think I got two in my 12 years of public schools. In elementary school and the second in Jr. High. I was in a group of boys who were smoking and a gym teacher told the Dean of Boys. I didn't smoke and never have but I still got a paddle for being there. This happened when I attended Ponce De Leon Jr High in Coral Gables, FL They were strict in those days.
What about the time you broke into Porky’s with your friend Meat? That was worth a paddling.

Here they are honoring/reenacting today.

That's absurd. It's no better than the constant witch hunts in New York. The election was stolen. The way it happened can't be proven but only a blind man or a partisan can't see the obvious. At any rate, California is simply toeing the liberal line and doing their part to kill their boogey-man. This is all getting pretty sad. Can you imagine if people really gave a damn about the corruption in the Biden family? That's real corruption but liberals simply don't care. That is the state of our country and the reason the divide between right and left isn't likely to change for a long, long time. It will most likely get much worse and more violent.
 
So what. Ever seen a civil war reenactment? How about Larpers doing midlevel stuff in the woods. So what.

Yeah, that's not what this is.

I understand it's hard for you to believe. The world is not like Kentucky. What's going on over there is not just some extrapolation of what occurs here. It's not same-same, ho-hum.

Funny. But why no credible evidence and why are elections only stolen when Qooks lose?
 
Where is that photo from? I'd like to see it's full context.

I don't know, just a google image search... probably an Israeli source.

You have the internet, tHat's all you have to do... check Jewish sources from before February 2022. I already knew about all this.
 
However, respect of OTHER PEOPLE'S PROPERTY IS and has long been recognized as a human right/requirement. Yet among the stats that show KY has 2x the eviction rate of other states, they don't show how much is lost to owners in property damage by tenants each year.

If they saw half the property damage I've seen and cleaned up/repaired, they'd be looking to pass new laws protecting landlords rather than helping the criminals continue to destroy other people's property and drive rental pricing skyward. Cause that's exactly what that does
One way we limit damage is to have a number of our units as subsidized Section 8 renters. They don't take care of our property, we inform Boone County & out they go. They're pretty conscientious about hanging on to that $500-1000/mo. OTOH, the county doesn't pay quite top dollar, so it's a trade-off to achieve steady income & maintained units.

Ukrainian ultranationalists sided with Hitler.
Yes, some, but you paint with a ridiculously wide brush. There were around 100K collaborators but that isn't much of a surprise. There are evil and weak and cowardly in every society.

They do not have what they set out for. And somehow you feel the need to state the obvious on how they will leave.
