My buddy Kyryll near Dnipro saved a life last week with a tourniquet that we helped him buy. A missile hit his neighbor across the street, and he was able to use the tourniquets to stanch the flow of blood from an unlucky passerby when the missile hit.

I just watched a BBC story from Ukraine. Young kids are receiving weapons training. It's surreal when you see a 12 year old girl practicing drawing a pistol. She dropped out of the theater club to take the weapons training.Comment

This is fascinating. Ukraine is apparently supporting Sudan's govt in their civil war to complicate things for Russia/WagnerComment

I'm not sure what you mean by this response, but it does seem like a pretty big step in moving from a proxy war to direct hot conflict with a nuclear nation. Am I misunderstanding what this would mean?Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostComment

Elon seems to be against anything that benefits Ukraine and sometimes sounds like a Putin shill.Originally posted by YOhio View Post

Are you suggesting or thinking that NATO could admit Ukraine in the middle of this war? I haven't heard anything like that.Originally posted by YOhio View PostAin't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

I think Elon's kind of been exposed with Tesla and Twitter in the shitter and him being laughably wrong and proven wrong at every turn lately. Why does anyone still care what that incel has to say? Oh right- his money.

It seems unlikely to me that Ukraine could join NATO until after the war is over. Russia will make membership for Ukraine a deal breaker for any official peace settlement. Because of that, I don't think there will be any lasting peace moving forward. Even if the scale of the war ever diminishes, Russia will stay engaged, even if on a small scale so that a Ukraine NATO membership would be too high an escalation with a nuclear power.
But why are we dragging our feet on sending military aid to Ukraine? The degradation of Russia's military assets alone is worth the investment. It's pennies on the dollar.Comment

I don't buy it. My best guess is Congress has intelligence estimates that lead them to think they have time to play political chicken.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostComment
