It does suck for Ukraine, but without the intel and weapons being provided they'd be a puppet state by now.
It does seem to be getting worse every day. I'm hopeful that the aggressor nation is running out of resources and will soon be unable to hold onto gained ground. I hope they can be pushed back to their original borders and brought to the peace table. But like so much else these days, it's inexplicable how things just keep getting worse and worse seemingly without reason.
I find myself in complete agreement with
@mjcouvi. I simply don't understand it.
Maybe Sartre was only partially right... It rambles a bit and is tortured, but does raise some food for thought. I only found it trying to validate the quote which is the title came from Sartre.
