Ukraine/Russia war is like…….Rocky

[rightwinger]

In Rocky, Rocky Balboa is a club fighter that has to fight Apollo Creed, one of the greatest Heavyweights in history.
Everyone laughs at the fight and argue over how quickly Apollo knocks out Rocky

Before the fight, Rocky just says he just does not want to be embarrassed.

However, once the fight starts, Rocky realizes he can take Apollos best shot and that he is capable of handing out his own punishment. Apollos corner tells him, he doesn’t realize this is just a show, he thinks it’s a real fight.

Same thing happened with Ukraine. Experts wondered how quickly Russia would defeat Ukraine.
But once the war started, Ukraine realized they could take Russias best punch and replied…….You ain’t so bad, You ain’t so bad

Cute analogy. But Rocky didn't have to fight 10 Apollo Creeds.

Rocky still lost the fight.

Puerile adolescent dreams of glory and conquest from someone who let a bunch of Middle Eastern goat herders kick his ass for 20 years.

How do you like living in a mediocre second-rate country led by a bunch of incompetent "America Last" weaklings?

Very true, but if you remember the movie, Apollo Creed is saved by the bell

There is no bell in this war

Neither does Ukraine.
Unlike Apollo Creed, Russia has no heart in this fight

Today’s Republicans are more like Rocky IV

While the whole crowd is chanting……..Rocky, Rocky, Rocky
Republicans are cheering for Ivan Drago

"Whole crowd chanting" = "collective IQ that may have (legally [italics]) placed the CIA puppet in the WH."

You really don’t understand what an analogy is, do you?

That is the worry. Endless taxpayer dollars sent somewhere where it does not matter how it ends. All of the dirty money swishing around the world has to cross at points. And Ukraine is a doozy. Ukraine is a Russian sphere of influence. The globalists are gambling no nuclear conflict will come from this. They also know the white areas will suffer the most in an exchange therefore cementing their power. The wildcard is China. Also, another wildcard is that Russia is white and if it comes down to it, will the globalists go through with their insane plans.

That is the point
It does matter how it ends

Allowing Russia to annex Ukraine just opens the door to Russian expansion into Belarus, the Balkans, Finland and Poland

Very true
How did it work after Putin took Georgia, Chechnya and Crimea?

Was he done?

Nope. Still needed to protect the Russian majority in the Donbas.
Then he's done.

Ea#y enough to create another pretext

Go watch another Rocky movie so you can maintain your overly simplistic view of geo-politics, Bidenista.
