I saw a BBC report today that the Turkish Prime Minister, who is apparently involved as a mediator, indicated that the two sides were very close on the critical issues. We'll see.......

This has been an object lesson as to what happens when you invest one person with unchecked power, especially one with control over thousands of nukes. Hint...hint!

I think Putin was suprised the Biden was able to rally much of the civilized world against this invasion.

I hope it is over and not a diversion that Putin starts back up when he thinks this had been put on the back burner.

It's not over, but the conclusion is not in doubt. You can clearly see that the Country is going to be cut along the Dnieper river valley. The population density is largely to the East of the river.

No it's not over. You don't do this much damage to a country and then just walk away. Putin had his objectives and he's bent on fulfilling them.

Last I heard, Putin rejected Ukraine's last proposal, so no, it isn't over and won't be for a very long time is my prediction.

If those Russian made anti-aircraft batteries now in the hands of NATO countries like Turkey and Poland, show up in the next couple of days or weeks, if Ukraine can hold at that long, it would take this war to a whole different level. If Ukraine starts shooting those missiles and aircraft out of the sky, Putin will rain down holy hell on Ukraine and what we are seeing now will look like a skirmish.

Which begs the question, are we helping or hurting in prolonging a war with "probably" only one outcome? If the Russian powers that be, if they exist at all, can't stop Putin, nothing will.

Nothing has upset the Commie Democrats more than the fact that Reagan crushed those fcuking Reds. But now a new generation is selling us down the river to the ChiComs... Some things never change.

Don't think it's over. The Russian military has had more casualties than the Ukraine military. Russian tanks have surrendered because they got lost, ran out of gas or ran into an ambush because of poor intelligence.
