Thursday

The Russians are getting the shit kicked out of them in Ukraine.
NATO might not officially be in the war, but is definitely helping Ukraine in so many ways.
They have lost so much in men and war material that they’ll be impotent for a long time, especially if the conflict drags out.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the give up trying to capture Ukraine soon.

I agree that the world is a better place without Iran being a regional bully, but I’m afraid of what comes after our intervention
