Perhaps let Russia occupy Donbas and let it have Crimea
WTF does this have to do with Ukraine being totally fucked in the land war that matters?

Nothing.
Any day now, Putin will crawl into Ukraine upon his knees begging to surrender. ROFL
Russia is not winning to a country smaller than the state of IL and likely more corrupt.
this is like iraq war, except we use ukrainians to die for us. kinda fucked up.
You are sooooo uninformed if you have deduced that Russia is solely up against Ukraine's military budget alone.
Ukraine has 1/5th the GDP of Illinois for fucks sake
These people are small dick morons that think they can just punch each other in the face and they won
If killing people is defined as winning a war, Russia will and already did. That's never what it was about.
Russia is not a threat to anyone globally

And they're backed by the most powerful nation (for now) in the world with all of the surveillance and intelligence assets we have
This is like Texas invading the Southern portion of Arkansas and Arkansas is holding their ground. I don't care how much backing/fraud Ukraine gets, they have conceded nothing. And yes, they will lose.

Yep
Yep, playing battleship. But there is always the nuclear option. Do you have a punch line for that?

Wow! Wookie and Socal agreeing!
I think we agree on most things other than Tesla.
The bear lives half way around the world. Why do we insist on poking the bear?

Well whatever animal you want to call them, their rockets have been giving our astronauts rides to and from the ISS ever since our fancy shuttle program was shuttered. (At least until Elon made his rockets available.) Elon and the Russians are better at rockets than the US government. So again, don’t poke the bear.
They are not deploying the best of their forces.
Rockets are rockets.

Russia Defense Spend 2023: $100 Bn (previous to War, <$60Bn)
USA Defense Spend 2023: $817 Bn!!!
Russia cannot demolish its neighbor with supposedly the 2nd strongest military on the planet.

Russia is the second strongest military...in Ukraine.
The Russian fleet, which the day before conducted military exercises off the coast of Syria, was practicing intercepting cruise missiles with characteristics similar to American Tomahawk-type missiles. This is reported by the American portal about the US Marine Corps. According to the source cited by the authors, the Russians demonstratively conducted exercises and conducted part of the negotiations on open radio frequencies, showing that it was not difficult for them to destroy American missiles.
Meanwhile, the command of the Russian Navy did not provide any official information about the type of exercise.
Let us recall that the United States fears that Russia will transmit to Syria all information about the situation at sea and in the air, which will significantly complicate American aggression against Syria.
One of these days, the “aircraft carrier killer” missile cruiser “Moskva” will approach the shores of Syria, and in addition to it, the Black Sea Fleet patrol ship “Smetlivy” will approach the shores of Syria in the near future. On September 29, two more Black Sea Fleet ships will arrive in the area of the Syrian coast: the missile boat “Ivanovets” and the small missile ship “Shtil”. On Friday, a detachment of ships, including the BDK Novocherkassk (Black Sea Fleet) and Minsk (Baltic Fleet), as well as the reconnaissance ship Priazovye (Black Sea Fleet), passed the Dardanelles and became available to the command of the Mediterranean squadron, RIA Novosti reports. http:/ /telegrafist.org/2013/09/11/86228/
In any case, the Russian fleet, regardless of the surrounding situation, will scan the sea and air space in the area where the fleet is deployed. At the same time, as information has already flashed in the media, Russia, in theory, can transfer this information to the Syrian air defense.
Syria is armed with the latest Russian Pantsir-S1 air defense systems, which are capable of destroying American Tomahawk-type cruise missiles. The Pantsir air defense missile system was (and still is, apparently) designed primarily to combat incoming Tomahawk-type cruise missiles and low-flying (maneuvering) enemy targets that for some reason broke through the air defense barrier. Tests of the Pantsir have shown that the complex is capable of shooting down low-flying missiles, including at a record low altitude of 15 meters. http://telegrafist.org/2013/09/11/86228/
