This is the crucial word - expensive. Expensive to who?
Obviously to the 51yo Ukrainian that's now being handed a AK. He's going to die - expense to him, and his family and friends.
Ukraine divisions are also drafting women now.
Ukraine as a country has now been gutted for long before this war started.. Brain drain, how about muscle drain = dead, all dead. You don't have a choice, here is a gun - go and defend what Victoria Nuland wants Ukraine to be! Dead, dead, dead, dead, dead.
Keep the bombs going, keep the death going - dollar bills have to be brought back into circulation.
I reckon if we both sat down with a beer, we'd both agree on a lot of things - just the world of internet is geared for hatred.
