I have been to the front in Donbass.  I was there during the 2022 invasion, dodging Russia paratroopers and cruise missiles in Kyiv; I walked across the Moldovan border.  I appeared before House Oversight Committee attorneys on Ukraine.  I had a Ukrainian refugee family in my house for eight months.  I have a lot of friends in Ukraine.  The Ukrainian people have been good to me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, we are not helping the people of Ukraine.  We are killing them, decimating the society, and their culture by keeping this war going, in favor of some &#8216;new culture&#8217; in the future, I&#8217;m afraid.   <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My colleague, former Special Unit Commander Pete Blaber, and I host a <em><a href=\"https:\/\/armedforces.press\/category\/ukraine-sitrep\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ukraine SitRep<\/a><\/em> podcast weekly to detail our point of view, which is the truth. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The truth is what is important.  Telling the truth allows for good foreign policy.  Above all, we don&#8217;t want American forces involved in the Ukraine conflict.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is why I was disturbed when I heard NATO&#8217;s SACEUR General Alexus Grynkewich describe what is going on in the Ukraine war this way:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The Ukrainians are taking casualties too, but the Russians are taking many, many more casualties killed in action every single month,&#8221; said Grynkewich recently at the Munich Security Forum. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;That has long-term impacts on what Russia&#8217;s future viability is and what kind of prosperity they could have at some point in the future, long after this conflict is over.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately for the General, and the Ukrainian people for that matter, his statements are simply not true.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s some evidence to that fact.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Russians have an order of magnitude higher population.  It is Ukraine who&#8217;s viability in the future is in doubt, due to NATO&#8217;s policies of running a proxy war against the Russian Federation, fighting to the last Ukrainian. Ukraine has lost about half her population to death and emigration.<\/li>\n<li>Ukraine is &#8216;mobilizing&#8217; every man it can find on the street.  &#8216;Mobilization&#8217; is a bad description.  &#8216;Kidnapping for certain death&#8217; is a better way to put it.  There are tens of thousands of videos online of this forced consription.  It is cruel and barbaric.  You can find the videos <a href=\"https:\/\/busification.org\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here.<\/a>  Free nations, people who want to fight for their freedom, don&#8217;t get press-ganged like this. This isn&#8217;t happening in the Russian Federation, which has more volunteers than she needs to prosecute this conflict of attrition.<\/li>\n<li>The body exchange ratio between Russia and Ukraine has been consistently around 10 to 1, sometimes lower, sometimes higher.  The Russians bring 10 Ukrainian bodies to exchange for one. <\/li>\n<li>Polish Prime Minister Tusk last week said Ukraine is losing 27,000 soldiers a month. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The cost of war: a white body bag.<\/p>\n<p>\u200bRussia and Ukraine have completed a significant exchange of fallen soldiers.
