War in Ukraine


That the U.S. has invaded other countries, sometimes with moral authority and others perhaps not, is a given; how does that endanger or excuse Russia at this moment? Or you're saying the U.S. can't or shouldn't object because Vietnam, etc, even knowing a new USSR is Putin's goal?

What was the point of the post?
Add Trump to the Ukraine supporter list.

Interesting MOS jump - are our med labs on tank turrets now? lol

Well as a 68k, you should know - wouldnt there be more cryo and containment equipment in a BSL3 or BSL4 lab (pressure suits and the like)? also, it was a children's hospital, not a lab really but I grant you, probably the same equip for a low level lab in every hospital.

I didn't change MOS's they changed the ID designation after I got out. 91k used to be a medical lab tech, now it's a heavy mechanic or something. I didn't change...

When I first started, I think medical lab was 92B before it changed to 91K. Now it's 68K.

EXCLUSIVE: 'We are not leaving. We Will Stay With the Animals.' Caretakers at Ukrainian Rescue Shelters Refuse to abandon Thousands of Pets left behind throughout their war-torn country as Food and Resources Grow More Scarce

  • Thousands of dogs, cats and other animals are in rescue shelters throughout war-torn Ukraine
  • Their devoted and courageous caretakers have refused to leave the animals behind
  • Animal welfare veteran Laura Simpson, who is the founder of Harmony Fund, an American based non-profit, has been providing extensive care to the Ukrainian shelters for years
  • 'We have enough food for a few days, but if nobody helps us and if NATO does not close the sky over Ukraine, I am afraid these dogs will have little chance for survival,' Dilly added
As millions of Ukrainians flee their war-torn country, thousands of dogs, cats and other animals remain in rescue shelters throughout the war-torn country with their devoted and courageous caretakers who refuse to leave them behind.

Animal welfare veteran Laura Simpson, who is the founder of Harmony Fund, an American based non-profit dedicated to helping the most desperate of animals across the globe, has been providing extensive care to Ukrainian rescue shelters for years.

'We know these shelters and the people who run them, they are all like family and now more than ever they need our help,' Simpson told DailyMail.com. 'I have spoken with several shelter owners and of course they are scared, but they won't abandon their animals. I have seen so much heart in Ukraine. These animal rescuers are their own distinct breed and they will never give up.'

Marina Dilly is the founder of Shelter Friend located in Dnipro and home to some 650 dogs and 200 cats, plus additional animals being brought in almost every day.

'Our city is empty now, no vet hospital. They shut down. There is nothing,' she said.

Despite the lack of food and supplies, Shelter Friend continues to take in animals that have either been brought in from veterinary hospitals that were forced to shut down because of the war or left behind by those who fled the country

'There is no dry dog food available and rice is rationed,' Dilly told DailyMail.com. 'There is a big shortage of cat food. It is not possible to get food or material items to the shelter. We have enough food for a few days, but if nobody helps us and if NATO does not close the sky over Ukraine, I am afraid these dogs will have little chance for survival'. Empty food bins are seen in stores throughout Ukraine

Shelter Friend, which opened its doors ten years ago, has been a safe haven for the abused, hungry, disabled and left behind. Dilly calls them the 'forgotten souls' and has no plans on leaving them behind.

'There are just four of us looking after the animals, but we are not leaving. We will stay here with the animals.'

'We just brought in two injured dogs that had been abandoned and we are now helping them,' she said.

I've stated it; unless there was a racial theme I overlooked, I don't think American transgressions disqualify our denouncing the Ukraine invasion nor does the disposition of Ukraine - as either member of EU or NATO, or defending sovereignty in Donbass/Luhansk - or the U.S., threaten Russia. Because nukes.

It came across as Russian apologia (or caricature of it) but I thought I'd ask rather than assume.
 
Have you got a source for the statement that “he intends to remake the U.S.S.R?”
No, the best they will come up with is Putin saying that the biggest mistake or tragedy was the break up of the Soviet Union.

No different than when they intentionally spun the words of Ahmadinejad and his alleged comments about wiping Israel of the map.

Oh no... not the dogs. Oh lawd Putin has done it now.
 
Those of you comparing this war to the war in Vietnam is sheer lunacy, they have nothing in common other than being unpopular. The Domino Theory was a very real belief at the time as was the notion that communism was a real threat to World peace. Looking back we can see that Ho Chi Minh had nothing in common with Mao or Stalin and therefore it was a terrible reason to go to war. There is nothing about Ukraine that screams threat to World peace or threat to Russian peace.

Lord have mercy now you are defending Iran, you may be the worst judge of character in the history of mankind
 
Half is not 'some', and yes, I'll think that until you reveal where he recovers that half, by estimates from Bloomberg and BI to be a $1.5 - $2B loss.
No one really knows how much. It doesn't matter to me if he makes or loses billions. I'd just like to see him go away. I'm with Luther, the man is a terrible human being.

Okay. That's fine. Let's give Desantis and Candace Owens a chance. Glad you agree.
