    Defeating Putin's pathetic army in Ukraine makes sure he can never threaten the rest of Europe again. As for money, the average German makes many, many times what your impoverished and pathetic people make. I mean you think you have a good salary making just $250 a week on the troll farm. That is sad.

    So they have to contain the "threat" of a "pathetic army" that is losing to a third-rate backwater? You are getting your CIA talking points confused.

    Someone who joined in 2018 and only has about 500 posts, all of them pushing US GOV propaganda, is accusing me of being on the dole.

    Hilarious.

    How often do you collect your government check? Is it weekly or monthly?

    US VET... let me guess... you sat behind a desk somewhere and now like to pretend that you're some kind of hero?

    Just the ones who follow the pattern of sharing Russian disinformation and propaganda talking points. You inow, the ones who never engage in honest discussion yet always spew the later Kremlin B.S.. I am sure you are aware of this as that is what you continuously do.

    And it just so happens that "Russian disinformation and propaganda talking points" are anything you disagree with. Coincidence, I'm sure.

    Would be nice, but my fellow Germans tend to dislike the military.
    Trust me, I live in Germany. :)

    One thing that I like about the US is to greet soldiers and veterans with "Thank you for your service". This is absolutely impossible in Germany due to the common pacifist & leftist mindset. :(

    You live in Germany, but have a Ukraine flag.

    You seem confused.

    Ukraine has nothing in common with the west except their skin color, which is responsible for at least 50% of the support they receive from dimwitted liberals. Rest assured, if the average Ukrainian was black or brown, liberals would not notice or care about what was happening there.

    No, I served in two designated war zones and went outside the wire six day a week while on combat tour. Please tell me about your military experience and why you have not volunteered for Putin's glorious war of aggression. Or are you one of those racist Russians who support wars but are afraid to serve and think only ethnic minorities should fight and die? I bet if you got call up papers then you would be on your way to Georgia or Uzbekistan.

    Like the television propagandist and pretend tough guy Shoigun. The guy endlessly calls for war and nuclear destruction on Russian propaganda tv yet when called gets made and claims "there are millions of ethnic minorities which can die in battle but I am more important here.". Typical cowards.

    "designated war zones"

    Sounds like the only way to know you were in "war zone" was because it was "designated" as one.

    "outside the wire six days a week"

    So you were a POG who got escorted by grunts.

    Not really. I simply hate Pooteen. Germans once fought ruZZia but failed miserably. Today my Ukrainian brothers have to do the job. :)

    We have lots in common, such as democratic values and a desire to be free of dictatorship.

    You mean German Nazis once fought the Russians. Your "Ukrainian brothers" seem to be taking the Nazi part too literally, however.

    "failed miserably"?

    Overall the Germans kicked a lot of Russian ass and inflicted a terrible toll on the Russians before being driven back.

    Zelenskyy is a dictator. But aside from that minor detail, you are spot on.

    You mean before the US ultimately saved the Soviet Union and handed them half of Europe?

    We sent them quite a bit of aid but you have to give the Russians credit. Ultimately they were the primary heavy lifters in the war against Germany.

    Ukrainian women are quite hot. That is true. One more reason why they enjoy such effusive support from westerners.

    He's banned political opposition and opposition media, jailed political opponents, unleashed neo-Nazis on his own population, lied during his campaign, etc. Yup, sounds pretty dictatorial to me.

    We're not allowed to give the Russians credit for anything. Everyone knows they are all evil and very bad and that Putin has them hypnotized.

    They shouldn't take on the Nazi or Napoleon role. These were embarrassing losers. Ukrainian fighters must tear down fascist RuZZia for the benefit of all mankind. :)
