Being “excited” is not an excuse for being ignorant.

Ignorant? The excitement is based on things that actually happened, things that had real strategic consequences. For instance, the Russian army had to retreat from the North. So I don’t know why you are saying people are ignorant.

Assuming we could just roll in and start bombing the Russians without the massive risk of global thermonuclear war is laughably ignorant.

Yes, and they are still grinding forward in the south and East.

I did not suggest otherwise.

It's true that Ukraine has remarkable success thus far, and also true that Russia is grinding forward in the South and East, with grinding being the operative word. We are likely to see a long war of attrition. Yes, Ukraine faces enormous odds. But Ukraine doesn't have to beat Russia in order to win, it need only survive. Ukraine wins by not giving up.

Numerous posters here have.

We’ll see. As I said before, the war’s far from over.

Yes, the war is from from over.

Also, the Ukrainians have had remarkable success thus far.

Both things are true.
