    This reads like a FUD piece. Every decision Ukraine is making is a last resort to protect their lives. Some DU contamination obviously outweighs losing their country, lives, and culture. They are fighting for everything.

      Plus scaremongering articles like this are treating DU like U235.

      It is. If you check NightOwl’s post history, you’ll see everything they post that’s war related is FUD/anti-Ukraine

    Wait what, a tank in a warzone got blown up? Who could have predicted something like this could have happened? Totally unexpected and I am sure no one thought this was possible before sending it in. It’s almost like there is a cost to war.

    wow it’s a good thing that we care so much for our Ukrainian friends that we give them all sorts of weapons that are totally safe for them to use

          Safer than negotiating a ceasefire as a theory, maybe. Safer than negotiating a ceasefire with the RF? No.

            How many dead Ukrainians is Luhansk and Donetsk worth? How many dead Ukrainians is it worth to thrash against a multipolar world for another couple years? Fifty thousand? A hundred? Two? The price doesn’t really matter to the beneficiaries, the beneficiaries aren’t the ones to pay for it, but it’s a good question to think about nonetheless. I personally want fewer dead Ukrainians, but you’re entitled to your own feelings too.

              I know you are trolling, but Ukrainians were minding their own business before Putin stuck his nose where it didn’t belong. Putin has the sole power to end this by pulling his troops back inside Russia’s borders. Ukraine will stop overnight if he did that.

              Ask yourself many Russians have died for nothing in this conflict? How many more will have to die before they get sent back to their borders? As a NATO citizen, I am very, very happy to keep spending tax dollars to prevent Putin from killing innocent people.

              Russia is going to lose this conflict either way. It’s just a matter of how bad their economy gets hurt and how many have to die for one man’s ego. Ukrainians have everything to lose, Russians have nothing to lose.

              Well, seeing at the beneficiaries are Ukraine, yes it would be worth it. I know you’re either paid to believe or have been huffing the glue that is the reasoning posted on lemmygrad, hopefully you’ll recover your morals or your senses one day.

              edit: For reference to the glue sniffing

          Your one correct statement in this thread: Negotiating a peace with Russians is more dangerous than anything that happens in the war zone
