Wow. It just occurred to me that, oddly, I am rooting for a war.

[Kablooie]

I think this is the first time there's been a war that I support.

This time it's not about oil or religion but about defense of people who were attacked for no reason other than to satisfy the grandiose ego of a fool who wants glory for himself. The same essential motive that Hitler had in starting WWII.

I can really see how the unprovoked attack on Pearl Harbor would have motivated America to transform into a fighting machine in record time.

I've been pretty anti war my whole life but when it's in defense of an unjustly attacked people I feel a need to support it.

1. Or wanting to fight in a war

It’s also making many people want to take up arms themselves and declare Glory to Ukraine.

Most everyone I speak to of many nationalities feel we are all Ukrainians now.

[BigmanPigman]

2. I'm a pacifist so wanting a leader assassinated is not what I normally

would be pleased with. Times change and right now I'd donate a week's income (about $700 after taxes) to put a contract out on that muther. I would even do it myself if I was guaranteed I'd be successful and I'd do it for free as well. So much for my pacifist nature. I know he will not give up...ever. This is his Swan Song.

3. Big difference between "rooting for" and walking into the meat grinder

[WarGamer]

4. I wish the Ukrainians the best.

We have no business participating with US troops.

[Sherman A1]

9. Precisely

Those rooting for war are to me very worrisome.

Some folks need to be very careful what they wish for……….

[FreepFryer]

5. We've been under attack by Russia and her agents for a good while...

...and it feels good to have a righteous reason to call them out and stop the abuse.

6. I keep hearing the phrase put out by those who have already have been through this..."War is hell."

8. Here's what we used to say when the dogs got a bit restless

Waiting to go into the show ring:

"KENNELL DOWN"

ffs settle down son.

[Chuuku Davis]

11. Ukraine s taking volunteers,

In many needed fields.

[Sherman A1]

14. Precisely

Just contact the embassy in Washington.

[BlackSkimmer]

19. Yep.

Next stop, Ukraine!

[C_U_L8R]

12. Nobody wants to fight the bully, but it has to be done.

[Sherman A1]

15. Feel free to do so

The Ukrainian Embassy in Washington is certainly in the phone book. I’m sure that they will be happy to hear from you.

13. There is a huge difference between "waging aggressive war",

which was determined to be a 'war-crime' in the Nuremburg trials,
and fighting a defensive war for your own survival....


Every people in every nation deserve the right to self-determination, and when outsiders attempt to take that right away, at the point of a gun, they deserve to be met with lethal military force-- and in such cases, 'war' in self-defense is "righteous".


In Ukraine, there is absolutely no argument about 'who is in the right'...

[Wingus Dingus]

16. I totally get it.

[Demsrule86]

17. Sorry that is insanity. It would be nuclear.
