It doesn't really what the Europeans think. What is important is what does Ukraine think.

The same thing Europe thinks and most Americans think.

Fuck you trump and fuck you Putin.

[Vrede too]

Fuck you trump and fuck you Putin.

True. A lot of RepuQs, too.

Of course it matters what the Europeans think.
1. European resolve materially affects the ability of Ukraine to continue fighting.
2. Europe is next in line for war criminal Putin's aggression.
3. There's a good chance that European troops will be on the ground as peacekeepers to provide the NATO tripwire as a security guarantee for Ukraine.

Apparently, Faux Noise doesn't discuss any of these geopolitical realities.

Any troops should be European. Their countries are the countries threatened by Putin. I visited Estonia and Poland some years ago and those folks are dedicated to keeping Russians out.

[O Really]

...

Yes, because we all know the world is just too big for anything that happens in Europe to affect the United States.

I get your point, but we sure don't want troops led by Dementia Don to be in Ukraine. Anyhow, the only serious discussions I've heard about are for European troops. Plus, I don't think most Americans will accept GIs there. I wouldn't.

[GoCubsGo]

Don't think DonOLD's surrender plan is going to be accepted anytime soon.

This might be the same battle, an associated one or entirely separate:

The world is watching.

WTF is an understatement.

Is he turning on Putin now or just rage Twoothing and not reading what he's posting again?

Only The Shadow knows.

Grain of salt with the NYP, but Putin has consistently been an asshole while Dementia Don has blown hot and cold about it for years. We'll know he means it if he sends Tomahawks.

Dementia Don didn't send Tomahawks.

4 years.

[Vrede too]

WTF is an understatement.

Israel and the US want to see Iran succeed. It sounds a little strange but NuttyYahoo and Dementia Don are very generous in their feelings toward Iran succeeding.

WTF


Thought while listening to a report on the Paralympics breaking with the IOC and their own recent history by allowing Russia and Belarus athletes to compete under their national flags - How is the invasion of Ukraine any worse than the US/Israel War on Iran?

[O Really]

I don't think there is any difference. I'd be open to anybody trying to differentiate with verifiable facts, but I don't see it.

[GoCubsGo]

It's so simple.

Just give Putin everything he wants and you get peace.

Zelensky: no.

[GoCubsGo]

Not to be outdone.

[Vrede too]

Not to be outdone.

Ukraine strikes Russian port of Tuapse again as environment crisis deepens


Smoke rises from the site following a Ukrainian drone attack that caused a fire at an oil refinery, amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict, in Tuapse, Krasnodar Krai, Russia, April 28, 2026.

Ukrainian drones struck Russia's Black Sea port of Tuapse on Friday for the fourth time in 16 days as authorities struggled to cope with a mounting environmental disaster from toxic black smoke clouds and ‌oil leaking into the sea.

Ukraine's SBU security service said drones had again struck the sea port and refinery that make Tuapse an ‌important hub for Russian oil exports.

Reuters could not confirm the latest strike on the refinery, which has been hit and set ablaze at least twice since April 16 in previous attacks ​that have halted production....

Good news: Impact on Russia.

As economic despair mounts, Russian official admits the country has had enough of Putin’s war on Ukraine. ‘We can’t even take one region’

Vladimir Putin is losing the Russian people as the economy and his war machine go in reverse amid withering Ukrainian attacks.

On the economic front, Putin himself recently revealed that GDP contracted in the first two months of the year. And on the Ukraine front, Russian forces suffered a net loss of territory last month for the first time since 2024.

After Russia launched a sudden invasion in 2022, Putin has not only failed to defeat Ukraine, his forces have been unable to take full control of the Donetsk region.

“The overall mood is that’s enough already; you’ve been fighting for long enough,” a Russian official told the Washington Post last week on condition of anonymity. “It seems to everyone that it’s been going on for longer than World War II, the Great Patriotic War — and at the same time we can’t even take one region.”

With Western military aid and innovations from Ukraine’s now-thriving domestic defense industry, Kyiv has weakened Russia’s economy and military.

Long-range drone strikes deep into Russian territory have damaged key oil-export hubs and “shadow fleet” tankers transporting sanctioned crude.

At the same time, new drone technology is also giving Ukraine a battlefield advantage, helping to roll back Russian troops, who have also been cut off from Starlink internet connections that were vital to their own drones.

In a tacit acknowledgement of the heightened threat from Ukraine’s drones, the Kremlin said Wednesday it would dramatically scale back the annual Victory Day parade in Moscow’s Red Square later this month....
