The coming battle for Donbass in the southeastern region of Ukraine will be the linchpin as to what our future looks like. When I say our, I mean all of us human beings. This isn't a battle being waged by Russia against Ukraine sovereignty in a vacuum. It is the whole of the democratic western world against the autocrats. Yes, even China will be affected by the outcome of this battle. I want to say here right now that despite the great advantage in manpower and armaments by Russia, they don't have what Ukrainians have, the will to protect what is theirs. It has been obvious over these last many weeks since this Russian invasion began that the Ukrainian forces are far superior to their Russian counterparts.
The will to fight in Ukraine by the Russian invaders is tepid at best which is why Russia has brought in so many mercenaries to fight alongside their inexperienced regular army. Despite that the Ukrainians are killing off the Russians soldiers at a clip of about 10 Russians for every Ukrainian soldier. Of course what isn't factored into this 10 to 1 ratio are the civilian casualties on the Ukrainian side. Although the Russians are torturing, raping, and murdering civilians at will the Ukrainian forces are even more determined to wipe the Russian army, and putin in particular off the face of the Earth. So the strategic gathering of Ukrainian defense in the Donbass region is to end the Russian invasion and destroy all things Russian while pushing the Russians back into Russia.
The Russians want the Donbass region as well as Crimea but that is non negotiable with the Ukrainian people. They will not relent in fighting the Russian aggressors until all Russians are off the soil of Ukraine. Even then don't be surprised if the Ukrainians continue on into Russia to clear out offensive bases that would further jeopardize their safety. What happens in the Donbass will dictate who gets to manage the peace after the murderous Russian invasion. That is when the autocrats will find out that democracy doesn't suffer fools lightly and a price will be paid for the inhumane acts perpetrated by putin and his Russian patsies. The death or rebirth of democracy will be determined in the Donbass region!
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
