    Also from the NY Times:
    Europe
    Russia, seeking a bigger army, moves to raise the top age for military service.
    If the full Parliament approves the bill, Russian men as old as 30 will be subject to the country’s mandatory year of military service.

    I find it funny and desperate, how people like you and gwb-trading reply back with internal Russian politics to my posts that show the evil being done to Ukrainians by their own government.

    My tax money is not going to fund Russia, i care very little about what Russians are doing internally to their own people. Not my business, the Russian people themselves voted for and love Putin.

    I care 100x more about the evil things that are being done with my money in Ukraine.

    You are muttering nonsense again. Over 70% of Americans support providing aid to Ukraine to stop Russian aggression. Rational Americans understand that this is an investment in stopping World War 3 by not appeasing a brutal dictator, Putin. The world has learned a lesson that appeasement does not work -- as shown clearly before WW2. The money spent on military aid for Ukraine primarily goes to American armament manufacturers and create jobs for numerous U.S. citizens -- thus supporting our economy.

    Even Republicans have now recognized that supporting Ukraine is a winning formula -- as outlined by the Wall Street Journal.

    Oh.. .do you have information showing Terny and Yampolivka are still in Russian hands? Well, good luck with that. Each recent day, Russia is losing ground while taking over 1000 casualties. The Kremlin's offense has sputtered out without meeting its objectives. Don't believe me? Well then just go read the Russian telegram channels from vatniks.
