Guarantee we got guys talking to gov members in Russia, letting them know we can just make all these sanctions go away if there was a new boss at the helm.

Laughed about sanctions last week. This week they can't even leave their borders or swipe their cards. I think that's called a strong negotiating position. Get someone reasonable in power and with a flick of a switch, back to being partially equal members of the civilization again.

It’s becoming increasingly obvious that RU will eventually surround Kyiv and Z will be required to discuss a truce. I can’t imagine Putin doesn’t demand that US led sanctions be a part of the peace talks.

 The remove kabab guys are team Putin. The guys who really want to rumble with this rabble may or may not have their own copies of Mein Kampf


 I doubt they’re going to be in as high of spirits when they meet Saint Javelin but they are well trained,well equipped,bizarrely motivated and have experience in Donbas and Syria. They’re not unwilling conscripts but they’re just assholes with beards,I have no doubt those Ukrainian boys will fuck em up.

Also put it in the perspective of we had about 7,000 American losses in Afghanistan and Iraq over 20 years.
Russia has half that in five damn days, and they really don't have much at all to show for those losses.

I keep seeing the comparisons to how many US troops died in Iraq over the entirety of the time we've been there.

Either way, lots of poor Russian mothers whom will never be seeing their kids again.

Would love to see the USAF fly over Ukraine right now and fuck up some Russia scumbags.

We have all grown up in a country where we greatly admired the American flag for what was accomplished before our time. The honor brought to our country during WW2 may never be repeated.

That luster will never be forgotten or lost, however if we stand my and just watch this massacre and do nothing, the USA will not come close to having the respect we all grew up fortunate enough to enjoy.

That's what I expected from the start. Rolling artillery/rocket barrage (possibly lasting > 1 day) and a large assault. That's what Russians do.

It's not like they're going to worry about international condemnation now.

Well, your savings is now her savings.  

Hate to rehash again but that's what I don't get with the absolute hatred of every living Russian by some posters here.

They're under the thumb of a dictator who could give two shits about their suffering.

Can you fathom how long we have been blue-balled with the idea of killing Russians only to have it never come to fruition? And now the Ukes get to get some? Lucky bastards! (I am being facetious but the sentient is genuine and heartfelt)
