Russia Ukraine war, page-222581

Are you autistic, mate?

I said I wished that the Ukraine won this war
but as a political realist my reasoning and
my knowledge of history tells me that that
simply wont happen.

Better still, I wish that this war never happened and that
the Ukraine and its people are now as they were pre
2014. But decisions were made by NATO in 2008 and
later confirmed by the post Maidan Governments which
led to this war because Russia , rightly or wrongly felt
threatened by NATO creep ..particularly in the Black Sea region..

This is not a matter of right or wrong but simply the endgame
in Geopolitics ....in this case war between a Great Power
and a smaller/non-Nuke power. And while the West supports
the Ukraine and deranged barrackers deluge Social Media with posts
advocating more Western involvement to the point of WW3,
sane/sensible people have to ask: Is the fate of the Ukraine worth
a Nuke WW3? IMO no and that's not being biased....that's simply sane.

There's a difference between feeling and reason mate
We'd all love to win Lotto but our reason tells us that
more likely than not, that wont happen.

In that context I'm neutral ; that is I simply don't
barrack for one side or the other ; just offer my opinion
based on history and the war to date and as such
the Ukraine is loosing. Just look at the BBC war map.

To claim that the Ukraine is winning is wishful thinking

The bottom line is that I abhor war and I regard it as
a failure of civilisation and that those who support
it fall short of being fully civilised and the only good thing that
could emerge from this war is that it would serve as an
object lesson of how to avoid such wars in the future.
