US has no good options in Ukraine

[Anonymous]

Russia said “Nyet!” to a ceasefire at the negotiating table - to no one’s surprise.

But inside Ukraine, we must treat the Russian invaders just like the terrorist Osama Bin Laden:

- shoot them in the face. All of them.

Putin would love that. It would hand him an issue. Ukraine should treat Russian prisoners as prisoners of war according to the Geneva Convention.

Russia is now up to 6,000 dead troops. Putin said he will compensate the families of dead soldiers 7.4 million rubles. https://www.interfax.ru/russia/826107 That's now down to $66k USD apiece. But with 6,000 dead that's already nearly $400 million dollars he has to pay out.

But meanwhile they are still lying about the death toll on their end and the families of a lot of guys sent to the front to die will be told their sons / husbands / fathers / brothers were never in Ukraine and instead died in an industrial accident or some bullshit.

Yes of course! I never suggested otherwise; YOU made that up and read it in, all on your own.

But any Russian uniformed invading soldier is subject to the laws of war: including being shot in the face on the battlefield.

Meanwhile, the Russian military is indiscriminately bombing and shelling purely civilian targets. Putin is a war criminal.

We are helping. We can’t help directly while Ukraine isn’t in NATO and Russia hasn’t attacked any NATO countries.

Too bad this is a lie. Ignores that facts that Israeli foreign minister has spoken out against Russia over this, has voted to condemn Russia in the UN, offered to mediate talks, and sent something like 100 tons of humanitarian aid.

Sorry, israel is charting it’s own path on this.

Even Lindsey Graham, the most Jewish of gentiles, is mad.

Israel has made it clear that it's a country that stands for absolutely nothing. It will still have transactional relationships with the West, while it continues to be useful, but the veneer has rubbed off.

Russian oligarchs landing in droves in Israel over the last two days, yikes.

Israel stands for the Jewish civilization. It has to make decisions that reverberate for 500-1000+ years, not 10 or 20

Is Russia still fighting in Syria as well? Do they have 2 fronts?

What about the Jews in Ukraine? Do they not matter? Just the oligarchs that fund the Holocaust Museum?

Europe has to take the lead. This will become a defining moment for Western democracies.

Modi isn’t driving the posture in this issue.

There is extremely broad based support for neutrality in India except for the very small…like 5% of people who are ameri/anglo-philes.

Yep. As much as DCUM likes to think Indian politics is driven by Hindutva, it actually doesn't work like that on the ground in India. Plus, when India was a Soviet ally, the Congress party was in power.

Not to mention that there is an element of racism in how the US treats India vs how the US treats Israel.

Good point.

People are definitely a lot more mad at India when their Russia policy is pretty similar to Israel.

Hmmm I wonder why

Decisions that reverberate for 500-1000 years are made out of very strong moral convictions. Israel is making the same kind of short sighted transactional decisions that led to Jewish woes in the past.

“Fighting” in Syria isn’t really what they do. Assad handles that. They just assist when needed.

It’s not really a front

Why can Ukraine just bomb the hell out of that long line of trucks heading their way?
