I'm not sure who's going to win, but I know who will lose. All of the people on both sides that will be missing friends and family members because of the actions of those in power.
Exactly correct. The Russian and Ukrainian people will lose. Boeing, Ratheon, and Lockheed Martin will win.

So true.
According to credible independent estimates, 500k to 600k Ukrainians have lost their lives, and approximately 1M are injured. (Official numbers are suspiciously low, ~35k deaths)
Here's a quote from a blog post I was reading today:
Few yet understand that the extent of the losses to Ukraine is already more severe than the generational losses England suffered in the first and second world wars.
Very sad, if true! 😪
I tend to believe they keep the numbers artificially low to justify the plundering of Western citizens. Every dollar that is stolen from us and our children to fund this war is matched with at least the death of one Ukrainian or Russian soldier. They won't stop until we're all dead...
Such a rare find to be so empathic!
what kind of solution do you have in mind? When so many individuals or at least claim to be individuals fight for their countries cause? At the end, normally awarded a plack with their name on a little little space.(when the wars over typically and many years later)
