"No One Gets Out of Here Alive."

 IF it weren't so deadly a cost to innocents, I'd be laughing at the American media cheering this war on as if it were another sporting event.  Lighting up our buildings and bridges in "our" team colors!  Declaring victory and celebrating the foes' mistakes so early in the game...

Friends, you do understand this is the Russian Army, right?

Backing Putin into a corner -- as we are doing by crippling Russia's economy and pitting her people against the world -- is a costly way to bring "peace".

Who's gonna pay to clean up Ukraine?  When will Zelensky die?  He very well can't leave Kiev now, with everyone touting his bravery and willingness to die with his troops.

The city is encircled.  The Russians are marching on, and the map is getting redder by the minute.

I don't have a dog in this fight, nor does America.  Biden has a distraction, but in the end, March Madness will hit, baseball will open up again, and America will look away.  We're not committed to freeing Ukraine, and most of us don't have business interests there.

As prices continue rising here at home, it's not likely Americans will willingly "sacrifice" for our Ukranian brothers and sisters, or cheer the deaths of Russian soldiers.  I don't think Biden is stupid enough to back Putin into a corner where he'd use nukes, but I don't expect him to die a Ghaddafy death at American hands either.

They likely wouldn't nuke Chicago, or a Midwestern city as we are too close to feeding the nation.  New York or DC is where Russia would want to attack to shut down American finance and business the way we are choosing to leave Russian no options but to fight on, using all of their military resources.

"I have not yet begun to fight..." Mother Russia is telling us.

We are so stupid, our military leadership and the media pundits who get so excited about participating in another world war (flashback to what... 1914?  Yay, how exciting, war!)  But America lacks commitment, always has.

Nobody here supports Russia invading Ukraine, but despite the propaganda you're seeing, nobody here is going to be following this once Spring hits here, our sports teams are back in action, and our lives go on being lived.  

Once personal sacrifice is called for, and the Ukrainians start admitting their losses, America will lose interest in backing the brave little country that could...

It's a shame we do this to people across the globe. Someday, they'll learn not to put their faith in America to protect them.  We can't even care for our own anymore.
