They have no integrity, all agenda…….all 3 of them

they aren’t worth any normal humans actual effort. Just feed on their troll tears
I let the "que" go the first three times you did it. I figured you might jut be tired of embarrassing yourself. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa...

Oh, and it's "band" together, not "ban" together.

And you won't even give straight answers to questions after making bogus claims. That's way worse than a grammer error.

Don’t like the answers more like it. Got a question, fire away. The right answer, the best answer, all that counts. Pickett’s charge cost much more than it was ever worth. Lofty sacrifice, big mistake.

Yup, I wasn't keen on expansion back then and worried about how the Russians would perceive it. Can't say I blamed the Baltic states and Poland for wanting protection though. Now? I'm very glad expansion happened and look forward to welcoming Ukraine too. I don't care a bit what the Russians think about it anymore. And frankly, expansion was just a fig leaf to justify what the Russians can't help doing. They can build a wall between themselves and NATO and disappear behind it forever.

Just go back to post 3620 and start there with clear answers. So, now you're comparing the Ukraine war with Pickett's charge. Do you think that proves your point?? Just a plain asnwer will do. Yes or no.

A question counselor, do you have one? Yes or no? Don’t lead the witness. For example, T fork range in west Texas, ever heard of it?

I agree. This is nothing like Pickett's charge. Pickett actually had a chance of busting through, then pivoting to turn the flank of the Union Army, and winning the battle. In fact, it was the two remaining cannon of 1st Lieutenant Alonzo Cushing that found themselves at the point where the Confedeate charge would have broken through the line. Loading the two cannon with canister rounds of grapeshot and chain, they were the final straw that broke the back of the charge.

but no, this is nothing like that. The Ukrainian attack has no realistic chance of getting to Moscow, 600 miles away. Russia has a lot of reserves, the Ukraine does not. This seems more akin to the Billy Mitchell raid - designed raise morale of a Ukrainian populace that has recently seen little positive movement in the war recently.
