    Really wondering what’s the plan to get Russia out of Ukraine AND stop them from continuing. Someone is benefiting from the war continuing (military industrial companies obvious), otherwise Putin would have been binladen’d already

      China needs russia alive so their anti-western axis doesn’t look like a joke, the west needs a bulwark against Russia so they can focus on China.

      This is a hard war because literally everything is on the line for geopolitics.

      Wars start and last until someone is profiting from them, it is probably same in this one.
