    I’m saying the Ukrainians should not be expected to negotiate, given that it is their land being invaded. If Putin doesn’t like that, he can pound sand and leave.

    If someone invades your house, you wouldn’t just given them a room and bath to have them clam down.

        I’m saying Ukraine should take their aid and push Russia back, as they are doing quite well. Russia isn’t doing too hot there right now.

      Or he can keep grinding Ukrainians that are poisoning their own soil with mines, cluster ammo and depleted uranium because I assure you Ukraine isn’t winning this and even their NATO backers are announcing it now that the “spring counter-offensive” has failed.

      I sure am glad that libs are aware that international relations are complex issues that cannot be boiled down to household analogies. It sure would be frustrating if they tried to make this into some simple black/white scenario with good guys and bad guys separated from material reality and historical context
