Will this really be a long war?
Allahpundit Mar 02, 2022 11:31 AM ET

I have no doubt that both sides are willing to make it a long war. Zelensky and his people have proved they’re willing to die for their freedom. Putin has gambled his legacy on subjugating Ukraine. Neither will blink. Which has the makings of a very long war indeed:

Quote
Given the durability of the Ukrainian resistance and its long history of pushing Russia back, the U.S. and Western powers do not believe that this will be a short war. The U.K. foreign secretary estimated it would be a 10-year war. Lawmakers at the Capitol were told Monday it is likely to last 10, 15 or 20 years — and that ultimately, Russia will lose.

I think it will be a war as long as needed for those to fulfill their political agendas; political leaders around the globe included and yes, that includes the U.S.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Time for the CIA to back anti-Putin insurgencies in Kaliningrad, Moldova, Belarus, Georgia, and other former Soviet republics and satellite states.

Considering the CIA's track record, and the current uber-woke status of its senior staff, that might not work out very well.

Could we contract this out to Poland?  The Poles hate Russians as much, or more, than Ukranians.
