Zelensky's Speech...

So, I watched Zelensky speaking to Congress standing there in front of Pelosi's gavel.... I have to say that the whole thing made me feel very concerned. I've been pretty good about "enjoying the decline" lately. But, this just reeks of massive past mistakes from my grandfather's generation. Putin is right to say we are carrying out a proxy war. I think we're being really stupid at this point...for many reasons I won't get into. My question to my fellow Gulchers is - How do you think this will end? Any guesses?

    Zelensky is and has been from the beginning a con artist. When he and the wife posed for the glamour shots I laughed my head off. He is one of the best con artists I've seen in a while. He is getting uber rich conning Biden.

      I agree. I don't see Zelensky as one of the good guys, but he is currently convenient for the deep state to accumulate more wealth and power and drive what's left of Free America into bankruptcy and poverty in a third world weak state.

    Me dino does not know how that war will end.
    I will say that should the Ukraine be conquered, top Ukrainian government officials will retire into exile made filthy rich with our printed money.
    I would not be at all surprised should Zelenksy makes it out with them to live in splender.

      The war won't end. Less than a year after the end of the Afghanistan occupation, the Russia-Ukraine conflict starts. When was the last time that there were no wars?

        That would be 1918 when "The War To End All Wars" ended.
        And that really worked out ever so nicely, did it not?
        BTW, at that same The Great War aka World War One's start during the Summer of 1914, all sides believed it would all be over just in time for Christmas.

    Like every war the US has been involved in, in the past 162 years, it's the corrupt state
    helping bankers and state-loyal companies steal from the People, crush competition,
    and increase power of the state over honest People.

    It has been said that statists always pursue war when their policies fail. I get the distinct feeling that biden is headed that way. He is goading Putin at every turn, and inviting Putin to use more and more effort to win in Ukraine, while the USA is just dragging things along (at the expense of the lives of Ukrainians). USA doesnt want Ukraine to "win", or "lose", just spend money on the military industrial complex. Its another stupid Vietnam and AFghanistan all over again.

    This proxy war is just part of the larger picture of the deliberate destruction of the greatest nation state in the history of the human race by gangsters with no understanding whatsoever of the evil they are perpetrating. All of humanity will suffer because of this poison from within America. The end will be ugly, very, very ugly.

      Besides that, me dino has read about top Ukrainian government officials somehow coming up with enough money to buy land in Switzerland.
      Nice place to flee to should Russia win. Even Hitler wouldn't mess with Switzerland.

    I couldn't find my anti nausea medication so I had to skip the rhetoric. And what's the point to listen to the drivel. They lie about everything. Their spoken agenda is never the agenda. Follow the money - pure and simple.

    I have not followed the situation particularly closely, but I read multiple news sources every day. From what I can tell Putin will either annex Ukraine, or there will be so little left of it that it is not worth annexing. I don't think Putin is capable of admitting defeat.

      Why would he admit defeat,
      Ukraine is having its ass handed to them. Putin has shown great restraint. You will see The cokehead Queer Zelensky back to bribe the US , next month and the month after.

    What I hope is that Congress impeaches the Grifter with Dementia (who stole the election) getting us into a nuclear war over a giant money laundering scheme.
    The reality is: at best the country continues the circle the drain. At worst everyone who live near a military base or major cities dies in a nuclear fireball.

    It will end with Putin withdrawing to some border, he decides will save face, and an end to the overt hostility, with decades of border skirmishes, spying, and political subversion.

    The Ukraine will probably join NATO. Russia will saber rattle, but do nothing, because they know they can do nothing. We'll have another banana republic in NATO.

    The real battle will be China, and they are watching and analyzing for how their version will go in the South China Sea.

    Ultimately, I think we’re headed for another world war and hoping I’m wrong. We’re overdue and the morons in charge keep poking at one another. Sooner or later some idiot will think he can win a nuclear conflict…

    I cannot make a specific guess. But, it will ONLY be good for democratic politics and NOT real Americans. I almost want Putin to use the first nuke so that REAL AMERICANS can start the recovery.....I said almost

    While the Ukrainians are dong god's work....namely killing Russians......I would not have had Zelenski here in the US. This is in fact a proxy war but there is no point in being so up front about it. The only off ramp I can see is if Putin assumes room temperature at some point. Then maybe our military industrial complex can find some group of Schmucks to kill Red Chinese. If the Reds will be stupid enough to try to attach Formosa we will be able to have another fabulous spending of American taxpayer money to support the military industrial complex without the inconvenience of American troops getting killed.

      Please Understand, Zelenski and his followers are Nazis'. Not Nazi-want-to-be's but actual real Nazi's with swastikas tattooed to their arms. The penis-piano-playing Zelenski was installed in a CIA color revolution in 2014. They have 48 bio-weapons labs (Source: the Pentagon), They are arms, drugs and Child sex-slave trackers They are the biggest money laundering country in the world. For the last eight years they have enacted genocide against the Donbas region of their own country And to all agreements to the contrary, they insist on joining NATO.
      I'm not a Putin fan, but put the shoe on the other foot: If Russia did the very same action in Mexico AND Canada (Bring in troops, missiles and start mass killing on the opposition party) What would you want our country to do about it?
      Russia is not losing the war, as the world will soon find out. After a history of 500 years of not losing wars, poking a well-armed bear, over and over, is an extremely unwise idea.
      I Worked in the DoD for 35 years.Their weaponry and defense systems, while not as sophisticated as ours, are quite formidable, robust and exceed our numbers by an order of magnitude. (Source: Jane's Defense)
      Start a shooting war with Russia we will both lose significant portions of both our populations. You can take that to the bank. Do you really want to go there? Over the most corrupt first world country in the world? We won't defend our border against 30,000,000 illegal aliens invading our country, Yet we spending billions we don't have to support very bad people in what amounts to a regional 500-year-old conflict that we have no business sticking our nose in? It is nothing less than national suicide where the only beneficiaries are the Military-Industrial-Complex and the Central Banks.

        Spot on ! The problem is brainwashing. We have been told to hate Putin. Very few look at what The deep state did to Russia over the last 200 years.
        Since replacing Boris the Drunk, Putin has arrested deep state oligarchs and he was absolutely vilified by the fake news. NATO wannabe Ukraine provoked Russian security and the sixteen year plan interrupted by Trump was to have a degraded US military lose in a nuclear war with Russia.
        That’s what Uranium one was all about.
