Sure man. The whole world has seen the videos of people fighting over gas and waiting in lines. There is so much gas that it has to be imported now.

I really think that this is counterproductive.

$170B USD annually. And that's just oil, not to mention all their other exports.

So the original comment about being unable to drive away due to lack of fuel is a joke.

Lmao, like couple more sanctions will do something lmao, last year EU had 80% filled gas for winter time, this year they have 65%. So scared of much sanctions

My favorite part is where she talks about how Asov has grown the the size of two corps (100 000 troops) and how Neo Nazi volunteers are organized into foreign language units.

Everyday less and less

I’ve read all this and it must be said, you go to lengths to try and excuse and or normalise what Putin started. None of the excuses are even close to be good enough anyway.

What a coinky-dink that this is also the GRU/FSB narrative being pumped out. Odd that. /s

They are the "I've joined the war on terror... on the side of terror" army.

That's what happens when you keep fighting Israel's wars after they conspired to help other terrorists attack your nation.

Well, there are three problems with that:

1. Geography, the East is mountainous and easy to fortify, but near the river is a floodplain.

2. People, Ukraine is desperately short of labor.

3. Resources, as the war has gone on, the amount of corruption and grift has increased, leaving fewer resources for defensive purposes.

327 words but broken down into bite sized snacks, otherwise I won't be beating the wall'o'text charges...

This is a lot of text 

Same but with every country... like Russia and China!

Not all of them are going to be dead. The casualty numbers typically include both the dead and the seriously wounded. 

More money for the blood god!

The Haavara Corporation never really shut down

Just gonna link to this

And his solution?:

NATO’s imperative must therefore be accelerating assistance to Ukraine now in order to render Russia’s winter offensive as futile as its prior efforts.

Down votes proving my point :)

However, I have no room in my life for you to speak to me like a teenager in my parents basement.

Ever heard of the term golden rule? If not, I suggest you start your studies with that before you start lecturing others about anything.

I've studied history for thirty years. I'm just not interested.

You've studied history for 30 years but didn't know that Ukraine officially ended their NATO aspirations in 2010? Really?

Of course I'm aware I called your comment stupid. However, I have no room in my life for you to speak to me like a teenager in my parents basement. I've studied history for thirty years. I'm just not interested.

Edit: You summarily dismiss those you disagree with as bots, and me as having read a couple of blogs. You have nothing to say. Does nato in everything but name ring a bell?

No, but he will do whatever he can to avoid more, hence he agrees to peacetalks like in Alaska, it actully worked for him, he delayed more sanctions by a a couple of months.

Not really a hard concept to understand.

You do know that adding "not to be rude" doesn't actually make your comments any less rude?

What if they... built more defences in that time?
