no its not, its nato helping ukraine to arm itself against a russian invasion. ukraine is not a proxy, they are defending themselves
I would not be surprised if some of the post-WW2 annexations into the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic are reversed or become protectorates of NATO countries.
Poland and Ukraine have had a special agreement that allows free movement between the two countries since last summer.
Zelensky recently visited Poland and had this say:
Come on Ben.
and what? you’re the one claiming its something its not
Ben it is so emotional (not for me.)
The innocents caught in the crossfire are the ones i care about.
Ukraine is not worth the loss of even one of our children or grandchildren and that is exactly where that fool Biden has us headed.
Just like LBJ.
We have no interest there.
I wish Ben would figure it out. I normally have a lot of respect for him. Ukraine has really flipped a lot of people out.
it doesn’t matter how many times you repeat this, its just not true.
and i do not now nor will i in future support us troop involvement
It is true Ben. Throwing good money after bad.
It is true. We should not be the world’s policemen and we have no particular interest in Ukraine.
You say you don’t support troop involvement but this is where this big time support leads just like in Vietnam.
LBJ said our troops would never be sent there (Vietnam) either.
It is worse than that. The US government has been actively promoting policies in Ukraine that are against the interests of the American people.
Most Americans would like to see Ukrainians to live in peace and prosperity, while minimizing expenditures from the US government. Most Americans want to minimize the risk of nuclear war.
On the other hand, the US policy since 2013 has been to spend billions to support violent extremists to create civil war and misery in Ukraine. Since Biden took office, the US has provoked a Russian invasion and spent tens of billions on a proxy war with Russia that could easily spin into a nuclear war.

I have never seen an official announcement of a “winter offensive” from Russia.
I have seen plenty of speculation about a Russian winter offensive in western media. The fact that Russians have not met western expectations is interpreted as a Russian defeat and not the result of faulty western analysis.
In reality, the stated Russian objective has been to destroy the Ukrainian army, not taking territory.
Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of Russia’s Wagner mercenary group that is helping lead the fight for Bakhmut, said his troops have primarily centred their efforts on demolishing the Ukrainian army there . . .
“Our task is not Bakhmut itself, but the destruction of the Ukrainian army and the reduction of its combat potential, which has an extremely positive effect on other areas, which is why this operation was dubbed the 'Bakhmut meat grinder.'”
War of attrition: Russia's stubborn fight for Ukraine's BakhmutHere is a description of Russian tactics, which agrees with observations from the battlefront.

Exactly. The left does not get this news. Bakmut is a meat grinder. Sadly, it Looks like Zelenski it going to keep going with a new offensive. Lot’s of great Ukrainian fighters will be lost and have been lost.
The only thing that provoked a Russian invasion was Putin’s meglomania
That and a US-backed coup followed by years of shelling of ethnic Russians in Ukraine.

It is true Ben. Throwing good money after bad.
That’s the nature of wars …
The truth is hard for some to handle.
Great sumation, may i add.
Wrong again. Bill responded well.
there was no coup and russia killed more citizens in donbass in a month than ukraine had in 5 years
no, bill responded with false russian propaganda
