"It's in his DNA" to join the fight in Ukraine, she told the news outlet. "He approached me, came to me after work and said, 'We need to talk, I can't watch this on TV, I need to go help these guys,'" she said. "It's been a struggle for me, worrying every day," Tina said. "He tries to call me when he can but sometimes he can't and my mind goes a little worried." "I'm super-proud of my husband, he's my hero and he's met a lot of great people over in Ukraine," she added. More than 7,000 U.S. citizens have applied to join Ukraine's newly established foreign fighters' force, the International Legion of Territorial Defense of Ukraine, according to Ukraine's embassy in Washington. The embassy told Newsweek that "not all of them are approved and not all of them are going to Ukraine." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomas. Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I am wondering if NA is more enthusiastic about war than Europe because NA hasn't been in the middle of an international war where nobody is spared destruction. In both world wars, it really didn't matter if you were neutral or not, chances were you were going to get caught in the crossfire. So all those countries know what it is like to have entire cities absolutely leveled. Over here in NA we have the best natural defenses anyone could ask for. We as population have never experienced boots on the ground war in our homes. I am not saying we are dumb or we don't have empathy or we don't understand what war is. What I am saying is we have been so far removed from real conflict while remaining on top of the world power shit pile. It is hard for us to have real perspective of what it is like. Obviously this doesn't this doesn't apply to every single person who lives in North America but well informed, leveled headed individuals rarely make policy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet when there's ambitious assholes like the Putin clan roaming Eastern Europe swallowing up countries to fulfill some weird ideology of destiny, something needs to be done. Putin has never met any resistance in any of his conquests. This is the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
