Western officials warn of a potentially long war in Ukraine

Some western officials say it's possible the war in Ukraine could drag on for months, or even years. Retired Major John Spencer, chair of urban welfare studies at Madison Policy Forum, joined CBS News' Enrique Acevedo to discuss what we could see in the future and how the war might end.

[princealex]

Of course, they want to fight this war until the last ukrainian!

[agathakirk]

Is anyone trying diplomacy? What is it that Putin wants? What is Putin saying that will bring this war to an end?

[austinsun]

Another 20 years? We are used to it. The US has been at war 225 out of 243 years since 1776. No big deal.

[asianguy]

Russian artillery has longer range, though

[amc]

Not if U.S air power gets involved then its a wrap..

[UnitedEmpire]

Of course it’s going to be long.. since when has wars ever lasted a few months.. this could go on for ten years for all we kno

[chrisedwards]

There will be an immediate need for a lot of temporary housing, provisions for santitation etc when the war ends before a major rebuilding.
I'd like to see the architects, builders craftsmen and quarries of the world come together to replace the historic monuments lost with some new and awe-inspiring buildings which the ucranians can be proud of and the world can be inspired by.

🚜🇺🇦 Keep talking about it, bring it up with the people you meet throughout your day, and don't give up the good fight! We, the united free citizens of the world are a beacon of liberty, and a bastion of democracy, and we, with the world alongside, have a responsibility to protect. The responsibility to protect (R2P) is an international norm that seeks to ensure that the international community never again fails to halt the mass atrocity crimes of genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity. 🇺🇦🗣️

[_jmnyoo_]

They’ve been fighting since 2014. So yeah I’m guessing it will be.

[rc-stpg]

Because we are involved. Every war the US is involved in lasts for quite some time. THATS THE FRKIN POINT!!

[edyann]

Wow, I didn't know this anchorman was on CBS news! Proud of you, paisano!

[roseschulkers]

Why has Biden sent the National Guard to the Hungry/Ukraine border. We now have soldiers on the ground I want to know how without Congress.

[Divedown_]

For me, every analyst in news is just there to promote a book they’ve written sitting and guessing

A este Sr. Periodista lo he visto en las noticias del canal de televisión en Español.
¡Qué orgullo de este paisano hispano

"warn"? Their openly stated goal is to "weaken russia", by continuing to pour in arms in a prolonged conflict, using Ukrainians as cannon fodder, like Afghanistan in the 80's. And we all remember how well that worked out.

PHILOSOPHY

Ukraine Democracy: USA's Involvement In World Affairs

One of the reasons the USA involved itself in Vietnam was to allow the people of Vietnam to have a democracy, or at least that was what was proposed by the American government. However, it lost that proposal and war to the Communists.

Staying Out Of World-wide Democracy Promotion

What does the USA think it can do for Ukraine as to the issue of staying democratic in spite of Russia's desire for Ukraine or at least some of its provinces to be under its Communist rule? The USA would have to throw out the idea of world-wide democratic advancement for other nations if it decides to stay out of the argument militarily because Ukraine cannot defend itself with American weapons as such it has now. The usual promotion of fighting for democracy would be waived and Ukraine would no longer have its freedom once conquered by Russia.

Personally, I think the USA should stay out of the conflict militarily, other than providing Ukraine weapons that they purchase and put up the money and collateral: debt that cannot be repaid must be avoided. The USA should not be a member of NATO. Since it already is, it must not cross the line and send Mig-29's to Ukraine because Russia has stated that would be considered an act of war. The USA must not become involved militarily with other nations of the world as it has previously done. It must not be so warlike. It actually owes it descendants of the founders many great retributions for what they have unduly suffered in the last century, especially as to Babelist real estate and demographic demise, diminishment of their posterity and potential inheritance. The Congress should be thinking how to revive them and the nation even as ancient Israel used to protect its patrilineal, homogeneous race and descendants of the founding posterity: See Numbers 36.

George Washington, our first president in case some of our immigrants do not know, recommended that the USA stay out of foreign affairs. This was good advice, but it was politically mocked unnecessarily with WW I and II. Since that time, international conflict became a bad effect of the status quo for the military complex to incite war on a global scale. Today, people of the American government don't really have a good idea of how peaceful that it could have been--without propaganda and war that was not promoted by our early politicians.

Economics

Why trade with Communist nations when their end-goal is to overcome other nations! Why make your enemies prosper to the point they can destroy you. Trade and prosperity must be limited to countries that favor national freedom and the right for individuals to pursue happiness. However, this must be restricted so as to prevent our nation for fighting for their problems.

On The Other Hand: War With Russia

Nevertheless, logically, if the USA decides to eventually back up Ukraine with our military in case of a conflict with Russia, a nuclear war could evolve. This could be catastrophic to the USA, and perhaps many other nations.

Babel Religious Moral Among Nations

If Hitler had not made the mistake of discounting the Slavic people, perhaps they could have helped him fight Communism and won the war against Russia. A Ukraine under German influence in his time could have made Europe homogeneous, great and prosperous. Today, Russia (and Ukraine as well) promotes accursed, Babelism and anti-Christian culture as Lenin and Stalin, and since WW II, Europe and the USA have also become Babelistic. There needs to be a national reversal of this back to homogeneity and one-people nationalism. However, it is not time for the USA to get involved in other countries' disagreements. We need to guard and protect our own borders.

Russia inviting soldiers from other nations, especially Muslim-oriented, gives Ukraine the right to invite NATO. Putin has no respect for the people who honor the Christian Bible in Ukraine, or probably elsewhere. This is proved by his actions on accepting anti-Christian soldiers from those other nations. He not only invites Muslim Babel, he is against his own professed religion!

Ukraine must seek homogeneous negotiation with Russia and allow the Russian people who want to go to Russia to do so. No nation should fight for mixture and Babelism. Losing some former land is not that important: Give Russia's demands for the Eastern provinces it claims. Making an agreement for Ukraine not to join military alliances would also be acceptable to end the death toll. However, whatever the scenario, the USA must not involve its people in this conflict. When George Washington and our military conquered England, we did not have help from outside sources... we (French and English: Japhethic [white] peoples) did it ourselves. The French have a long history in North America. New Orleans is still known for its French culture. Both the English and the French were also anti-Babelistic at that time: The moral of sovereignty, dominance and superior position had not been overthrown through NWO media and propaganda lies.

This is a big money trick by all the world's billionaires

[oliviamiller]

Sweden should give 100, to 200 M 3 Carl Gustaf's into Ukraine to be used to take down Tanks and also other types of armoured vehicles and also possibly even Russian aircraft's as well too also!

[MRdeLaat]
