Where did I say Ukraine had 2 parties, uniparty, etc? It was clear I was talking about the US, there was a new paragraph. Sure I didn't use proper structure for an essay but who cares it was obvious.

You may think you have choices but who had the most money behind them? Who had the media backing? It wasn't the guy who lost.

That's exactly what they have done. There are limited ground troops and battles right now. They took out defenses and have basically been waiting for a while. They aren't destroying Ukraine like they easily could do. The further this goes, civilians and buildings will be impacted as I don't see Putin stopping as he is fighting for Russia's future independence.

Wars are terrible and generally solve nothing long-term but its clear why Putin views this as him being forced into this. The question is going to be if the globalist around the world are willing to start WW3 for Ukraine, although they could use it to try can crush Russia.
