And will you just look at all the blood thirsty libs piling on this. Fighting to the last Ukrainian is the only way the west will accept this war ending.

Why settle for the best peace now when they can have a worse one later, with more casualties?
Are you two really naive enough to assume that Russia will respect a peace agreement?
Russia attacked several countries against international law, and Ukraine already had security guarantees from the US and UK following its voluntary surrender of their nuclear weapons.
International law and security guarantees meant fuck all when Russia invaded in 2014, and about as much in 2022.
Why do you think, Russia would respect agreements this time? They made their intentions very very clear.
It’s funny that you should be so suspicious of Russia respecting agreements.

That's great and all, but how does any of that justify an invasion?
What you're doing here is whataboutism. You don't address the actual problem, instead you're derailing the discussion.
