  2. Most buffer zones look to create a buffer where fighting is already happening… control and expand a "greyzone" under your "control"… this is an incursion… but call it what you want. Its still a media diversion as the whole Eastern Front is rapidly losing ground and cities… Zaporizhzhia needs a buffer about right now… not Kursk. But hey, most CNN viewers are still looking at maps for Ukraine (or not even bothering).

  3. If Ukraine goes any farther into Russia Sarah Failin will be able to see her cult leaders gay buddy get raw dogged. From her window 😳

  4. When the Russians reach out and touch US soil I don't want to hear anybody in Washington DC crying about it. You've invaded them first.

  5. C, n, n, I've been thinking about this. How do we know that the filthy? Rich is supporting hamas to continue the war and fight and this way, they can blame Israel if they succeed in taking how much oath they would want to have the rights to the front. Of Gaza because it's a ocean front and they can open up motels resorts. Whatever they want to get money and I believe China, Russia, even the United States has something to do with it. They'll filthy riches always put in their nose where don't belong? And I believe you guys should go after him. And get these filthy rich people out of it.Cause I believe that two's causing all this problems.
    That's my opinion

  10. CNN has never, in its reporting, identified that the billions sent to the US backed part of Ukraine, is intended to kill Ukrainians who want to the right to self determination. Not a single report of the atrocities committed against fellow Ukrainians. The reports from Russia about the atrocities are dismissed as Russian propaganda, rally our nation to support the irresponsible expenditures that only benefit our arms industry. Biden is now sending our most sensitive weapons to Ukraine. This technology will be sold by unscrupulous Ukraine officials to the highest bidders.

  11. Yet the great U. S. of A. supports, finances and weaponizes the far right genocidal state of Israel. SHAME, and Why? does Israel control US policy?

  13. Imagine if Mexico staged a surprise invasion into America. The response wouldn't be weeks in coming. Russia is tired and already pushed to the max.

  14. Ask voters, would you rather throw money at Ukraine or secure our southern border. Perhaps secure our social security as well.

  18. Gods the copium.
    This is a trolling mission. Ukraine just sacraficed its best troops to troll Russia, and sabotage any peace negotiation. This dude got talking points from an acid hallucination.

  19. Putin is willing to throw 1,000+ dead per day at the Ukrainian defenses, but there are fewer troops to follow up any successes should that unlikely event take place, meanwhile, Kyiv is willing to occupy Russian territory and snatch POW’s to extert pressure from the one demographic he can not control, mothers.

  21. Россия в 140 раз больше Нью-Йорка. Но экономика Нью-Йорка больше, чем у России. Да, это остров площадью 300 квадратных миль! Российская экономика — полная чушь, потому что нацистский террорист-диктатор Путин забирает все деньги у русского раба.

  28. The buffer zone might be part of Ukraine’s goal of their invasion of Russia but I think the main reason is to force Putin to move Russian forces in Ukraine to try to eject Ukrainian forces in Russia. What’s left of the Russian army’s real soldiers and equipment are in Ukraine. All Putin has in Russia are secret police, border guards, and untrained teen conscripts. The Ukrainians have battle hardened vet’s armed with deadly American weapons. Putin can’t recapture Russian land without using his forces in Ukraine. And everyday Ukraine occupies Russian land is more humiliation for Putin. Sooner or later he’ll have to move forces From Ukraine to Russia

  29. The incursion into Kursk is to cut-off supplies of munitions and food to Donbas, Luhansk, Kharkiv and Crimea. Negotiating chip is secondary.
