    I disagree with the premise. There is an exit strategy. Get Russia out of Ukraine. Seems pretty straightforward to me.

    Unless we want NATO forces actively involved then the most expedient way to end this conflict is to continue providing Ukraine with the tools necessary to fight Russian aggression for as long as Ukraine would like to fight. Democracy is either important, or it isn’t. I think it is.

        Ukraine overwhelmingly wants our help. Afghanistan wanted the US out. Nice try with the whataboutism though.

          I was referring to that. If Democracy is so important, we should have stayed. That is all.

            Then you should have read the whole reply because it answered your “just asking questions” in all of two sentences.

            for as long as Ukraine would like to fight.

            Enabling self determination is kind of how democracy works. I honestly expected you to know that.

    Exit strategy: russia loses, russia stops, putin dies.

    Those are three viable options. What isn’t an option is to let the terrorists win.

    Endless war my ass.
