I thought the worlds economic sanctions were going to bring Russia to its knees.  What happened?

They are going to default on their debt next month.

So what does that mean exactly in terms of their ability to continue waging this war?

From my limited understanding, if they default it will mean very little on their ability to wage a war.  But it sounds like they are going to argue they had the means to pay the debt but are basically not being allowed to.

Negotiate for peace.

they seem to be under the strange delusion that fighting off the country that launched an unprovoked war of territorial aggression with an army that immediately began murdering, raping, kidnapping and enslaving people as soon as they crossed the border offers their people a better chance to live their lives and pursue their happinesses.

As long as the US is happy to pump billions of dollars of weapons in to Ukraine and Ukraine is happy to accept and fight I think this thing can go on for a long time. But I think there are plenty of questions as to whether that is a good thing from a number of perspectives.

It's only a bad thing if they ultimately end up a Russian puppet state, anyway. It's still a good thing for other small countries in the area like Moldova, though.

I know nothing about Moldova, but it sounds so cosmopolitan. Like Monaco, or those bad person elitists in Liechtenstein.

I actually thought her point about virtue signaling was a decent one, although I don't agree with it, but she just kept talking and woof. She even knew she took it too far.

it's still pretty weird to phrase the question in a manner that excludes the party that precipitated the action and is still the only party involved that can unilaterally terminate all hostilities from a discussion of how long the war will last and whether or not it's a good thing.

Unfortunately our hot headed mentally incapacitated war mongering President and the merry band of #neocons he has surrounding him are going to keep pumping billions of dollars of weapons into Ukraine so more people can die.

Funding the Nazi's

By a recorded vote of 130 in favour to 2 against (Ukraine, United States), with 49 abstentions, the Assembly then adopted draft resolution I, “Combating glorification of Nazism, neo?Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance”.

SteveDave:  As expected is extremely pleased that Joe Biden instructed his ambassador to the UN to vote against a resolution to combat the glorification of Nazi'ism.

Joe Biden and SteveDave stand firm in their unbridled support of the Nazi's of Ukraine.

SteveDave loves his Ukrainian Nazi's.

Apparently some on this board haven't been reading your favorite news sources very closely lately.

https://jacobinmag.com/2022/01/cia-neo-nazi-training-ukraine-russia-putin-biden-nato/

SteveDave's all in . . .

Despite sometimes open acknowledgement of its Nazism — its former commander once said the “historic mission” of Ukraine is to “lead the White Races of the world in a final crusade for their survival” in “a crusade against the Semite-led Untermenschen” —

It goes without saying a unilateral withdrawal by Russia would be the best result, but that is very unlikely. So looking at the more likely scenarios I genuinely don't know what a multi-yr conflict would look like but I imagine it would involve a lot of killing so trying to look for alternatives is something we should be doing.
