Will Russia Be a Victim of Her Own Good Intentions?

The pumpkin's invasion of Ukraine is a shit-show.

To the dismay of all Greeks, the Turks are coming to the realization that Russia is a second-rate military. Best to keep in good graces with America :(

Johnstone still performing hypocritical mental contortions…

“ Wars end in one of two ways: with diplomacy and negotiation, or with mountains of corpses.”

lol they are prevented by continuous negotiation (dialog) …

This was the Trump approach which I’m sure she is Trump deranged AT THE SAME TIME…

An exchange of verbal insults is still dialog…

This the thing with these hypocrite Art Degree anti war people… they won’t admit war simply represents the ultimate failure of their moron methodology….

This is the true reason they are anti war… don’t want it exposed…

Why didn’t Putin just pile up a bunch of warriors and weapons armed to the teeth at the eastern border and then force a dialog with Zalensky to provide better protections for the non right wing citizens in eastern Ukraine?

Just keep negotiating?

Peter Pan said...

PCR is asking why Moscow didn't launch a 'shock and awe' operation based upon Russia's overwhelming military superiority. (According to blog sites like The Saker, Moon of Alabama, etc.)

This would have caused heavier casualties, to be sure. But Russia is losing the PR war anyway. The more time that passes, the greater the risk of an insurgency.

When he's right, he's right.

"Why didn’t Putin just pile up a bunch of warriors and weapons armed to the teeth at the eastern border and then force a dialog with Zalensky to provide better protections for the non right wing citizens in eastern Ukraine?"

He's right again. Damn right!

Dumbest pumpkin in Russia? The pumpkin Putin.

Pete key is China…

If China assesses that Russia has shit the bed here militarily they are going to fuck them…

And current reports on the anti Russia sources (caveat emptor) that China is growing impatient with the Russia military operation…
