(1,584 posts)That Ukraine sent troops to Afghanistan. They are and have been an ally. We have done a lot to support them and could be doing more.

(38,427 posts)Other world leaders haven't got a clue about the word.. "class."
One more idea...the past president (the one directly before Biden) is the exact opposite of class..
(His name rhymes with dump)
Much lower than the word..."trash." (apologies to all devotees of ..trash.)

(22,656 posts)Oh, say! can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming;
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:
Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In fully glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution!
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Oh, thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust":
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

(12,536 posts)As Reagan said so long ago; "He thought wrong"
Putin also expected a disjointed NATO to not respond
Again, "he thought wrong"
He thought UKR citizens would welcome them
Ditto
He thought it would be a Quick operation.
Ditto.
Putin now has revealed RU as a paper tiger, he has a NATO as strong as its been in years, he has increased the size of NATO; and he's relegated RU a a pariah state for years to come. No treaty with them will ever be trusted.
