Ukraine is game to you?

Mariupol's main public cemetery - satellite image taken on May 8, 2022, less than two months after Russia's invasion. In case you weren't sure, those are freshly dug civilian mass graves.

 
For what it’s worth, most Americans don’t need that much convincing that our government should help rebuff Russian advances. Not so much the same with that other situation
 
This is tied to Israeli aid, Taiwanese defense, and border security regarding drug overdoses. Fund it all, NOW.
 
i mean that was 87% of the soldiers it had before the war started, meaning basically all of it's "trained"/professional soldiers?
 
Any points of view out there on how this ends? I have a hard time seeing a peace agreement anytime soon - it might just settle into a “non-active” detente at some point (similar to 2014) with Russia now holding more territory. But I’m afraid UKR ain’t gonna move them out in any kind of significant way (unfortunately).
 
Afraid I agree with LK; Putin is not letting go and will, if he has to, commit every resource Russia has to win in Ukraine. He's effectively set back Russia 20-30 years to satisfy his territorial ambitions. He is indeed the Stalin/Hitler of our generation. Netanyahu a close second but gaining.
Why each of us should include on our Holiday wish list, someone off those SOB's in '24.

“An order was received to destroy the enemy with a daring Zhukov maneuver, just like 80 years ago,” the blogger added, referring to Russian general Georgy Zhukov, who has become notorious—fairly or not—for claims he cleared German minefields by ordering his soldiers to just ... walk across them. As a result of the recent Zhukov-style attack across reseeded minefields, the Russian 104th Air Assault Division “lost unique specialists,” the blogger wrote, “but the situation on the battlefield did not change.”
 
On Tuesday, Russia's Defense Ministry said Moscow's troops were using the new Russian Yastreb-AV counterbattery radar in Ukraine, designed to detect artillery systems like the U.S.-provided HIMARS as well as howitzers and mortars commonly used by Kyiv's fighters. But within just a few hours, Kyiv's special forces said Ukraine had hit a Yastreb-AV system at an unspecified location in the south of the country with one of its dozens of HIMARS—the very artillery system high up on the Yastreb-AV's list to detect.
