[lbo-talk] [a-list] Ukraine regime military losses-Breaking Point

[Dennis Redmond]

I'm not sure what the Putinoids are smoking, but in two weeks, 10,000
Russian troops with modern armor were unable to seize more than a few
border villages from an underequipped and untrained Ukrainian army.
Mariupol remains firmly in the hands of its Ukrainian citizens, who voted
for Poroshenko and who do not wish to become a Russian colony.

There was a time when Leftists were proud to defend progressive
anticolonial revolutions against imperial invasions. Now the orthodoxists
fall over themselves to defend the land-grabs of verminous gangster
plutocrats. Cheering on Putin's 2014 colonial war on Ukraine is the same as
cheering the 2003 US colonial war on Iraq.
