You might want to take a course on strategic warfare. Look back at history, no insurgency has ever been ultimately defeated.

The French found that out when Vietnam beat them.
The US found that out when Vietnam beat us.
The Russians found that out in Afghanistan, a tiny little country.
The US found that out in Afghanistan too.

Insurgencies just have to outlast invaders, in Vietnam it took them what 50 years? But Vietnam is now sovereign. It not only freed itself from France but freed itself from the biggest strongest military power the world has ever seen.

The other STRATEGIC factor is... like it or not semantically, the Ukrainians are killing fascists for us... they have become titular proxy agents, and dying doing it. The longer they do it, the weaker Putin gets, and the more right wing Russians begin to question the right wing doctrines Putin barfs out. And while that happens no Americans are shedding blood... except a few Lincoln Brigade Americans.

Of course American fascists as per usual are on the side of other fascists. They're conservative enough to want us to return to prayer instead of science. They wish to bring back the good ol' days... the dark ages of European anarchism, with no central government power, when might made right and the rule of the most brutal and immoral reigned. Ironically this is why banks when multinational, everyone carried arms but no one could go anywhere carrying gold or silver so banks set themselves up to take checks. An Italian could carry a check to England to buy wool and cash it there instead of carrying gold and weapons.

That's the world they want to return to. Castles... fiefdoms... serfs and slavery. The good ol' days.

All we have to worry about now is what extreme right wing conservatives are warning us about... Trump.
