This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

I’m not rooting for wwlll, not rooting for us troops on the ground. I guess I wonder


Agree with all of this, and then i think if Putin is not stopped now then we will inevitably be pulled into something much larger down the road. It’s vital he fail in this endeavor.

Putin still hasn't crossed the attacking NATO line, he will be dealt with if that happens, what's going on in Ukraine is tragic and horrible but this isn't a situation akin to before WW2 when the western powers attempted appeasement with Hitler.

Incredible how effective the bayraktar drones are. Makes you wonder if tanks are relevant anymore.

The film makes a bit skeptical. How many missiles does a drone carry?

Putin is happy those people are leaving. They are troublemakers. He wants the docile sheep type. Long term it makes economic prosperity even harder for Russia if anything approaching democracy is created there.

Alright folks, I'm paying for a new passport tomorrow. I need some funds for travel, etc.. I may not come back for 4 kids and wife when I fly into Poland. Whether I enter Ukraine armed and ready or feed refugees, I don't care. Time for for Jimmy to put his words back to real action.

My wife is fully supportive of me doing this. I'm one that looks out for service above self.

If HROT doesn't want to help out, that is fine. To each their own.

CNN reports that Russian State TV is now discouraging people from panic buying, which will, of course, increase panic buying.

But but but the Nazis did it, right Vlad?
It will be interesting to see Russian millennials fighting for food in empty grocery stores. They’ll finally understand what their grandparents were telling them about.

Is this for real? Dude your family needs you. Why not set up a gofund me for refugees? You'd be doing just as much help.

Are we seeing an unfairly optimistic portrayal of the situation now?

It seems Ukraine's military is suffering heavy losses and also running out of weapons.

Putin’s forces may move to an attritional phase as dearth of information dogs assessment of Kyiv’s capabilities

Yeah. I think if he goes, @Jimmy McGiII should stay in Poland and help refugees.

He'd be more useful there than as cannon fodder in Ukraine.

Not a bad plan if you expect this to end soon, somebody has to repopulate the country

I appreciate the advice. It's going to take some time to get updated passport. But I have always done service, and I think that my posts on here are not doing enough. I feel compelled to serve the greater world. Am I crazy? probably. Would I find death alright knowing I did humanity a fist bump good. Yes.

I don't know what to expect. Online shows it willl be 5 weeks min to get new passport. Travel is about 800 one way. I need someone more intelligent than me to give advice on phone/internet/social media.

Why not just give $$$ to help Ukranian refugees instead?

 

[HawkFan1298]

How does this war benefit Russia or Putin?

Am I missing something?

You are not wrong. But we can not all be bystanders. If I can feed a child or elderly person, it is worth it.

Shoot, the war might be over before I get passport,

Poor oligarch yachts

Dozens of sanctioned superyachts seized from Russian oligarchs still hang in limbo, racking up millions in maintenance

Superyacht maintenance can cost over $100 million annually — without proper care they could deteriorate in a matter of weeks, experts told Insider.

Do you have any relevant training? If not, it'd probably be better for everyone if you stay away.

Ukraine requires it:

Don't come fight for Ukraine unless you're already trained, foreign legion says

For Canadians looking to help in Ukraine, sending donations of money and essential supplies is likely more attainable than volunteering to fight on the front lines.
