This is a huge victory for the Ukrainians. Doesn't mean everything is peachy keen yet but Ukraine has been kicking ass for the last 4 days with substantial territorial recapture to show for it.

Good for them. Good for us all bc the ultimate outcome will have a profound impact on the Western Alliance and our shaky democracies.

Ukraine has become a huge reminder of what it takes to defend your homeland and fight for freedom--skill, faith and raw, unrelenting courage.

Bravo!

most bully regimes, they are so bellicose, so full of it, and then when it comes down to hard fighting, those fighting to preserve their lives and Country against the thugs under Putin, they are stomping these people into the ground. They say that over 51,000 Russians lost their lives and perhaps up to 2 times more possibly more had died not reported.

Russia is a shadow of itself, and is nothing of what they had always proclaimed themselves to be in the past, a superpower.

I wish Ukrainians the best, and I wish that they continue to kick Russian ass, along w/ Putin's.
