    Let him double down. He knows his army has been nothing short of an embarrassment. Slava Ukraine! I’ll always love the video of an elderly woman telling Russian soldiers to put sunflower seeds in their pockets so flowers can grow where they die.

    My first Post!

    I think, as always, hindsight is 20/20 on this one. The projected death toll would be in the millions. The US military hasn't even gotten halfway through the Purple Heart stockpile that was ordered in anticipation of a land invasion. As counter-intuitive as it sounds, think of how many lives...

    "All of Vlad's forces and all of Vlad's men, are out to put Humpty together again."

    It's just interesting the morale difference between Ukraine and Russia. While I was in Ukraine I met a young boy (had just turned 13) and he had told me it was recently his birthday. I asked with the war if he was able to celebrate at all, he ended up telling me he spent his birthday making...
