Some are rightwing nationalist nazis, those are on the second fronts. Some reacted against Russia when the invasion started, like it's normal, most are now trapped in an impossible situation, they try to escape, dessert, or surrender. Ukraine is a de facto fascist regime that persecutes any dissidence to this nonsensical war. The morale is under the ground. What you gotta stop your thinking based on your wishes instead of the reality. The evidence is overwhelming, Russia is winning on the battlefield and advancing faster, there's no way Ukraine can reclaim what it lost, Russia has the support of its people, and it restructured its economy to its BRICS partners successfully. This is done, the longer it gets, the worse for Ukraine.

Yes, seems the war will be over soon, this is unsustainable. If the Trump cabinet keeps flushing money, it will take longer, the outcome will only be worse for Ukraine. Zelensky is an unintelligent puppet playing the role of his life, filling his endless money sack from what the West is sending there, and like him a lot more in his cabinet. Even being a puppet, at some point he should have stepped up for the people in his country, and tell the West enough is enough, end this madness, and sign a peace accord with his bigger neighbor for good. He has probably part of his brain damaged for excess of cocaine.

Putin just won overwhelmingly the Russian elections, in the middle of the war, he has the popular support for what he is doing because they see what the Western coalitions have been trying to do to them, and they are happy about the favorable result for their country in the field. The one who has not ratified what he is doing is Zelensky, if they had a chance of winning the war, he would have the support, but people are not blind to the reality. At this point they want this madness to stop and not die, because it's a lost cause anyway. Putin gave a speech about the historic relation of Russia and Ukraine, by an historic perspective you can rationalize any border you want in any conflict, who cares. The thing is, Ukraine's journey, starting from a coup in 2014, the continuous Western military presence, and the blatant unwillingness to abide by two peace accords signed in Minsk, Putin finally opted for the war, they gave him the excuse. There was almost an accord to end it as soon as it began, which the West rejected, because they foresaw that a war would weaken Russia to an inevitable collapse. It didn't. There have been more peace offers since, each one worse than the previous for Ukraine, that's where we are, and how it's going to continue to be. In any case, it seems the peace deals will be happening this time.

First of all, counting since February 2022, it's 3 years. You don't even realize how much you mold the reality to fit your wishes. It's as ridiculous as your predictions of the collapse of the Russian regime or the false casualty numbers the Western propaganda machine has been sprouting since day one, like that would win them the war, instead of efficiency on the battlefield. Russia has the main objective of kicking the intentions of NATO about Ukraine away, not taking the whole of Ukraine, but the amount of land it will grab will depend on how far they make them go. The trend is very favorable for them, they are winning, and can continue doing so, that's why they won't settle for any less than the four territories they've already almost taken. But if the West and their puppet want to continue, it will be more. Ukraine is never getting back what they've lost.

I'm European, I wouldn't live in the US for anything in the world. The two main reasons are the ones you cite, their healthcare system, and the lack of gun control. Here you know you are covered whatever you get, and guns in the street are not even a thought in my mind, criminality is low. The cost of housing is a big problem in Spain, more than in northern countries of Europe. Boomers had it quite good, below them it has been getting worse and worse. This is similar to the US here, from what I hear.

Good for you.

They don't have any other chance than dying for nothing, many of them are scaping, deserting, or surrendering. Their government is deciding for them in an expired term, and what they are seeing is that they are having funerals of their youth regularly in exchange for an Eastern land that they know is out of reach forever. This is ridiculous and cruel. Russians are dying too, but they know they are winning the war, and they are much more motivated to fight, not only or that, but with much better incentives. They know they outnumber the Ukrainians and that they will win, but yes, they want this to end too, nobody likes to put his life on the line.

No, I'm not lying, I'm analyzing the hard facts, and the reality of the situation. The Ukrainian government is making the decisions, not the people, whose term ended last year, and it was elected with the promise of maintaining the peace accords of Minsk, that's what they should have done. They didn't and Russia invaded, which at first created an understandable reaction from Ukraine and its people. But as time has passed, and the factual reality of the war is what is it, not favorable for Ukraine. They are tired of trading funerals for an Eastern land that they know they will never be able to recover, which was quite Russian friendly since always anyway. The West had the strategic objective of weakening Russia, that's what this has been about, and the US military industry has made a ton of money and got rid of the obsolete weaponry and equipment, which is good to renew from time to time. The way Ukrainians have been used is extremely shameful, and common people there don't have any way out, any dissidence with this nonsensical war is persecuted.

Man, you know they kicked him out of DOGE saying he was annoying as Hell?

Russia comfortably holds 20% of what was Ukraine and has the capability to keep advancing. Ukrainians don't want to die for what's clearly a lost cause, they are deserting and escaping in huge numbers. The more time passes, the more unsustainable the situation is. The West has been predicting the collapse of the Russian regime since the beginning, and some fools continue to do so, but it's not happening. Russia won, it can be admitted now, or it can be admitted later in much worse terms.

Russia has taken about 20% of what was Eatern Ukraine and have shown the capability to maintain it, counter any attack in other fronts, and keep advancing non-stop and faster. This 20% is not going back to Ukraine ever, and if the other side is not willing to sit and negotiate based on reality, it will continue the war and grab more land. So yes, Russia is winning big.

Russia is winning the attrition war, Ukraine capability to defend get's worse and worse, that's the metric that matters. Russia outnumbers Ukraine's manpower by so far, and its economic viability is good. Yeah, those matter too. This is not about me, it's about people dying for nothing. There is no way on this Earth Ukraine can win this war against Russia, the best they can do is negotiate based on reality, as all their before-the-war predictions, and first year of war ones, have failed to be as they expected. If it continues it will be worse. Trump would continue helping Ukraine if that led to their victory and Russia collapsing and getting weaker in the world, he was totally involved in the de facto NATO militarization of the East of Ukraine in his first term pointing to Moscow. The potato exploded in Biden's hands, who was in the same page anyway or more. The West and Ukraine have two options, face the awful facts now, or face the even worse facts later. They made their bet, they lost, and as conservatives like to say, although they don't apply it for themselves, actions have consequences.

No, that's wrong, some are aware that they are fighting a lost cause that started not for their interest, but the strategic interests of NATO. Those who are not aware yet, they don't deserve to die either. This war is not a race, but Russia's acceleration rate is very good, they take more land faster as time goes. It's pretty clear Russia doesn't want the whole Ukraine, but does at least the Donbas, Crimea, and the two Eastern oblasts that connect them. But if the other side is unwilling to negotiate, they will keep getting more, until they do. Ukraine is not economically capable of maintaining this, and at some point, their donors, who are not helping in good faith, will stop, because they have problems on their own too. Not to speak about the required manpower, they don't have enough men, and they are not willing to die for a lost cause, as it's normal. They wanted to lower the fighting age to 18, they are struggling big. Ukraine is losing, confronting a much bigger nation was suicidal. You could argue that before the war started anything Putin said was a bluff, but it obviously was not. All other expectations of Russia's economy failing and military capabilities being insufficient have been proven wishful thinking by the West that didn't come to reality, as much as they tried to manufacture the reality with their propaganda machinery, it didn't work.

No, I've not been proven wrong at all, the facts from the battlefield are what they are. The trend has been clear since the disastrous counteroffensive of Ukraine, Russia has kept gaining more land and faster, and it will only get worse. There's nothing Ukraine can do, nobody is interested in a nuclear escalation of worldwide catastrophic consequences, only lunatics incapable of a second thought. Then we have the strategic failure of the Kursk offensive, since you don't like me to repeat myself, let's analyze something different. They can't even defend the four oblasts in their territory, and they open a new front that will need to feed equipment. They advanced some miles in an undefended land with well-trained men and good equipment, but Russia showed the capability to counter it in the following weeks. Then Ukraine had one more front to feed, as said, and what could be interpreted as a morale boost for their side at first, I would argue that the men losing and dying in the fronts of Zaporizhia or Donetsk, of course, they must have thought, why didn't they send those troops here to help us? Not that it would have made a difference in the long run, but they would have held a bit longer in those areas. Russia is not going to exchange anything, is going to win the war. The only thing they would exchange is the posibility of them continuing to advance, and anyone with a brain would accept that at this point. Russia rapidly changed its trade partners to the East, the sanctions have damaged Europe more than they have Russia. Europe is a nice market for producers, but China, India, Brazil, and Indonesia are huge, and they are Russia's partners in BRICS, among other smaller ones. I would even say these hard sanctions helped Russia to rethink its economy, nationalize some industries that were in Western hands, or Russian ones but with outside banks, which was an improvement for them. Its economy is healthy and can continue the war, now they'll have to adapt for peace, they have some work in reconstruction, for example. Although I'm sure they'll keep their military power somewhat latent, which is normal in the world we are living.

Russia can continue with the war, its economy is doing well. Ukraine is the one that can't hold it for much longer, that's why they're losing more land at a faster pace, and it will only get worse. But it's in Russia's interest to end the war at some point too, in the terms they've won on the battlefield, stop their own men from dying too, and give a try to a peace economy. If NATO and Zelensky don't accept, or set terms that are not acceptable from the standpoint of a country that took big risks and made big sacrifices to win, Russia will be more than ready to continue.

NATO's future is uncertain. Trump is setting new economic terms for the European countries of the military coalition, and also making direct threats like the Greenland comments at the same time. On top of that, the Ukranian war has been a disaster.

I don't mean they want the war to stop in generic, because war is bad. They want it to stop now in the terms the country that has defeated them sets, because any future terms are going to be worse and they've started to grasp they have been used. The terms are no NATO and at this point concede the four territories of the East, in short. The terms were better before, and they will be worse in the future if they continue, plus thousands more dead, mostly on their side. I don't know what you guys think it's happening on the battlefield, but I'll inform you that Russia has been gaining more land and faster as long as the war continues.

Ukrainian people want this to stop, they live in a de facto fascist country now, with the excuse of martial law. Any dissidence with Zelensky and his madness is a prison sentence at best. But that's better than going to a certain death in the grinder of the East. The USA and Europe have attempted to use Ukraine against Russia, this didn't start in 2022. What a shame to use other country's men to try to weaken a rival bigger than them in your place. The chances for negotiations were many, everyone rejected by the West and the clown puppet. Thousands of deaths on both sides, much more on the Ukrainian side, we can see through the propaganda. If there was a chance to win against Russia, Trump would take it too. There is not, there wasn't before either, the blood is in the old man's hands, Biden. This war should not have started, could have ended in 2023, or even last year the latest. So Trump is doing now what any sensitive person would have done sooner, face the reality as it is, and negotiate the peace terms with the winner of the war, which is Russia. The terms are not the same now than a year ago, two years ago, or when the war started, obviously. The Democratic Party is totally highjacked by warmongers, they have outcompeted the Republicans, who are delighted by the situation that only favours them. Another approach is needed, more diplomacy, and competition with other countries making yourself better, not breaking the leg of the competitor, as this ice skater sportswoman did. That's America now, a sportsman who tries to win by breaking the leg of the competitor, instead of training, and being better in the race. Europe is just stupid and bought, there's no better example than what happened with the Nord Stream pipeline, which damaged its economy more than any other including Russia. This was done by the USA, their supposed allies, it wasn't Russia, neither Ukraine.

Don't blame yourself for what Trump is doing. You voted with another expectation, probably based on his words, but now it's time he proves himself for the things he promised and things he does, not you. Observe and learn, that's what you can do about it. Don't be hard about it, it was just one vote. Consider that making mistakes or misjudgments is part of the process too, personally, and collectively.

There have been 1.5 million direct colonizers since the 90s, which means many of them are still alive. That's a lot considering the size and total population of that land. You didn't understand what I wrote, almost half of the total direct colonizers arrived after the 90s, that's factual. That's not the same as half the total population, if that's what you understood, because obviously, these direct colonizers have had children through the years, that's how colonization works. Apart from the systematic violence, the apartheid system, periodical ethnic cleansing, and mass murder campaigns that the Zionists have inflicted on the indigenous people, who are the Palestinians.

Read well, I said mostly from the ex-soviet countries, not all, and I clearly wrote since the 90s. So if it was a million from there, the rest from other countries, and yes, in total, they are close to half of the total colonizers. Above 40%, so they are pretty much alive as said and of course they have had descendants, as the ones that previously went to that place from others, that's how colonizations work. Immigration is something different, people move from one country to another and adapt, keeping an understandable link to their roots. Going somewhere else in mass and changing the name of the country, its flag, and making it an ethnostate for your kind, that pretty much suits the definition of colonization, in short. They could have moved to Palestine, lived there peacefully, and adapt to the laws of there, that would be immigration. But going there murdering and stealing their land, that's colonization to the letter, with periodical ethnic cleansing campaigns, the last one we've just witnessed.

Hamas has paused the hostage exchange until Israel complies with the terms of the ceasefire agreed between them. During the ceasefire, Israel has kept killing unarmed civilians in Gaza daily, in smaller numbers. They've also increased their military presence in the West Bank, killing civilians there too, like they've transferred part of their Gaza troops there, one could deduce. Remember there's no Hamas in the West Bank. These things directly violate the terms of the agreement. They are also not allowing in the aid they agreed to, basic things like tents. They don't want to comply with what they signed. Do they even know what making a deal means? Israel’s communications minister, Shlomo Karhi, has backed Trump’s call to let hell break out in Gaza if all the remaining Israeli captives are not released by Saturday. They cannot even comply with what they signed up for in the first phase. I thought it would take them a bit longer to back in their word, at least until they had all their hostages home. It seems the ceasefire is going to collapse soon. Let hell break out, Trump says, so more genocide, I guess. It didn't last long.

Well, but about half of the total colonizers arrived after the 90s mostly from the ex-Soviet countries like Russia or Ukraine, those are pretty much alive because it's recent. Understandably colonizers that stole the land and homes of the native people by murdering and displacing them have had children born in occupied Palestine, but that's how colonization works. Yet they want to kick Palestinians to Jordan and Egypt, that's the conversation now. But they are not leaving.

Palestinians want to stay and rebuild Gaza, so I guess they thank Trump for his generous real state development offer, but it's a no. An offer done during the visit of Netanyahu, responsible number one of the killing of hundreds of thousands of innocents living in Gaza and the total destruction of their homes, roads, towns and cities. They are not leaving.

Settlers are like the KKK terrorizing black people in the USA 100 years ago. Apartheid state to the letter, he describes in the video that he was afraid even of defending himself because a man in his village spent 18 years in prison just for pushing a settler. A huge number of organized settlers surrounded him and stopped his jeep, one of them threw a huge rock through his window to his head. He lost consciousness, woke up hours later with 80 stitches in his head, and thanks god for being alive. This is Israel, it has been like that since it was born.
