We're gonna get pulled into this eventually.

Cases like that make me think we should be supplying the Ukrainians with incendiary munitions. When Babushka back home sees that the kids who surrender get treated well but those who deliberately murder civilians get burned alive with napalm...

A real president issues his civilians machine guns instead of crack pipes.

Ukraine disperses at least 18,000 machine guns to volunteers to fight against Russia

Ukraine's Armed Forces said on Twitter, "We give weapons to all patriots!" as the country handed out thousands of guns and encouraged residents to prepare Molotov cocktails to aid in the fight against Russia according to reports.

Thank Dumbass Biden for causing all of this.

Pulling US crude and down stream products from the world market caused this spike in oil prices.

The spike in prices for Russian oil is financing all of this.
Putin is smart to be doing this when the rest of the world is paying the bill.

I've been back in Florida for a week or so. Haven't watched a lick of news (or Democrat Leftist boot licking) and don't miss it a bit......

Did hear Putin is targeting civilians.....Thank you Joe Biden.

Let me make this perfectly clear, because words matter.

Putin caused this, not Biden. His troops invaded under his orders.

Biden is enabling Putin, but it is all Putin's doing. Is Biden and his entire cabinet and administration completely incompetent and making mistakes at every possible moment? Yes, yes indeed. But the one thing none of Biden's sycophants nor Biden himself did was order Putin to invade Ukraine.

Putin is not smart, either. He is no better a leader than our current band of merry transgenders. He is ambitious, petulant, elitist, and drunk with power. He will not survive this from his own people. They will eventually Ras-Putin him, i.e. bag him, club him, stab him, and drown him in the river. Things are about to get medieval in Russia as their economy ceases to exist.

Just hope he keeps his nukes in the barn when he gets REALLY desperate and frustrated.

Well....I won't argue with you.

But the White House Dumbie set up the financing for this...

I expect to wake up one morning to hear that Putin "jumped" out of a 10 story window, or maybe someone slips some novichok or dioxin in his tea. He isn't going to step down willingly so something like that will be his fate, and he earned it. .

My money's on the traditional Excedrin Headache Number 9x18 "accident while cleaning his Makarov."

Putin will have this wrapped up in a week once they begin. I doubt any other countries are going to get directly involved in helping the Ukrainians out. Once it starts it is going to go really fast, IMHO.

Well this quote sure aged well.

The Russian Ministry of Defense claims it has used a thermobaric rocket launching weapon in its deadly attack on Ukraine, the United Kingdom (U.K.) announced Wednesday.

Moscow "confirmed the use of the TOS-1A weapon system in Ukraine," the U.K.'s Ministry of Defense tweeted.

The statement was accompanied by a video of the Soviet-era weapon, which launches rockets from atop a tank body that suck in surrounding oxygen, creating higher temperatures and more damaging explosions that last longer than conventional blasts.

"The impact of the TOS-1A is devastating," the U.K.'s Ministry of Defense said in the video. "It can destroy infrastructure and cause significant damage to internal organs and flash burns, resulting in death to those exposed."
