Where are the tens of thousands of fighting age Ukrainian men lined up at conscription centers to fight back?
Just like the last time Russian came in. There is almost zero resolve to fight. No wonder Zelensky is now begging people to fight and wants foreigners to come and help with the defense. Americans have no clue how corrupt and dysfunctional Ukraine is. Why would you defend it?
I stand with neither government but I definitely feel for the average Ukrainian.
Our govt is corrupt as hell and if we were invaded I'd still fight back and hope others helped as well.
I can differentiate between the Ukrainian people and the Ukrainian .gov the same as I can with Americans and American govt.
do you stand with all of the Ukrainian men refusing to fight for their corrupt and failing. country? There are millions of Ukrainian nationals living outside of Ukraine now. Do you see airplanes fun of Ukrainians flying back now to defend their failing and corrupt country ? Americans, who never spent much time abroad, think every country is like America
Young men think they want to fight, until they taste and witness the horrors of combat. It isn’t a video game.

I'm all for helping out and lending a hand. I'd be more than willing to open my house to some of those single, beautiful, maybe homeless Ukrainian women, that might of gotten their apartment bombed.

Well said
As corrupt as America is it’s still better than most places and I’d fight for our ideals and Constitution. Ukraine has so such ideals or Constitution. Russia isn’t out to kill random civilians and life will go on more or less the same for the average Ukrainian after the fighting stops. Given those parameters there’s nothing worth dying for IMO for a typical Ukrainian.

They might be worried about being starved to death...again.
Ukrainian men are fleeing Ukraine in droves to avoid conscription to fight for a hopelessly corrupt country and that shows leadership
Tells you everything you need to know about what's really happening there. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Zelinsky may be a leader, but he's the leader of the west's money laundering operation.

Scary part since Trump was in office the MSM constantly painted Russia as the bad player and gave China a pass. If anything the Russian people are more like us than the Chinese.
Something seems real fishy about all of this. I know there is a Biden Crime associated with Ukraine somehow. Maybe if Putin takes over the country he will expose the Biden's.
That alone puts me in the Russian bleachers cheering them on.

I support sending weapons, foods, medicine and accepting some refugees. I am pragmatic person, therefore, I do not mind if they call some battalion 14th SS Waffen Grenadier Battalion. They are killing Russians!
