I believe that degrading the army of one of the US greatest geopolitical world rivals at the cost of roughly 3% of the DoD budget is money well spent. In that there is no US blood is an added advantage. The Ukrainians are fighting this war for their own purpose, to reject tyrannical rule. That's something that's happened for a millennium, including the American revolution.
The US didn't impose this war, 100,000 Russians invading did. As France helped the US during the revolution, the US helps Ukraine.
They're not gonna let you into the club just because you lick the boot leather. I believe the 100.000s of dead ukrainians are more important than some vague US geopolitical goal.
The ukrainians are forcibly conscripted and banned from leaving their country. They do not want to fight.
Yeah one day putler just woke up and felt like invading, that's what happened.
If you think this is such a good war, go volunteer.
The Ukrainians could stop this war anytime they want, as could Putin.
Reality is the Russians invaded. They rejected world order.
Lol, lmao even
