The MIC demands we continue this war and Ukraine doesn't have the man power to do so.
Looking forward to the US sending in the marines. Russian forces would quickly learn, they don't stand a chances.

Hopefully, this won't become a trend.
I did read about this. But what was said in addition was that like the US who is letting Ukrainians do their fighting for them, the French are letting mostly foreigners do the fighting for them as well by using the Legion. Nice and nifty, no need to use your own troops.

We'll see if the US has the guts to do that. By the way, the Marines are a tiny force compared to what the Russians have in Ukraine, and a lot of those troops are still sitting on the sidelines. But hey, the Marines are supermen, right?

Russians have amassed over 25,000 troops north of Chasiv Yar, which at this point is nothing more than rubble, to deliver it in name only to Putler on parade day...

Why is Chasiv Yar most important to the Ukrainians? Is it more symbolic or do you think it has strategic significance as opposed to any other place on the line.

Not going to happen. The US doesn't even want its weapons being used in Russia..

The U.S. does not "enable or encourage" Ukraine to use American-made weapons in targets within Russia, according to U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink.

I know folks want this to become WW3, but its not. The weapons given to Ukraine are to only be used in Ukraine, with no US Marines either.

France has deployed their foreign legion to Sloviansk, Ukraine. If they are killed by Russian forces it could trigger a larger NATO response.

there are currently less than 100 French Foreign Legion fighters in Ukraine..but 1500 are close to getting their marching orders..Russia has officially let loose saboteurs in European countries to bring down their military and infrastructure..if you ask me, WW III has already started..
