    I think you will find lots of pro Russian people living in Ukraine.

    The ysanks placed these puppets into power in Ukraine and Russia has said fk you and started 2 retake control of certain regions

    Business Insider Headline:

    Russia's soldier shortage is so severe that it is recruiting in homeless shelters and considering pardons to criminals to fight in Ukraine, reports say


    I mean, that's one way to lower homelessness and empty the prisons. Economic plusses for Russia on both accounts. Fewer homeless to feed/police. Fewer criminals to house and feed.

    Both canon fodder to protect the real troops

    Maybe. I don't think BI is a propaganda mouthpiece, but whoever they get their information from could be.

    It just sounds typical of the kind of propaganda thrown out there.

    Anyway surely they would've gone to the gulags first. <laugh>

    lol, it had nothing to do with America, it was about joining the EU. There was a referendum, the vote by the people was clearly in favour of joining, but Yanukovych went against the will of the people because it wasn't what Putin wanted. Massive country wide protest occured because of it and he was ousted by his own parliament, not that it mattered as he'd fled anyway.
    Not long after that the FSB turned up in Donbas and a couple of months later the place went to ****.

    Since the 15th century, in fact. John Wayne should have it sorted out by Friday tea time though.

    lol, you know nothing, as usual. I guess the Euromaiden protest is too long ago for your drug addled brain to recall.
    And I'm not surprised to see you go against the will of the people when it suits your conspiracy narrative.
    You are a joke.

    Russia have taken a proper pasting over the last few days, Ukrainians suckered them into the south and then attacked through the north east and have advanced to within 50km of the Russian border.

    I was just thinking, this is just going to be a cycle. Russia takes territory, Ukrainians take it back, in a couple of weeks Russia will take it back and so on.

    Russians have to go all or nothing, if they think they can decide on when to stop that's never going to happen because the Ukrainians will keep fighting until they retake all the territory. So all or nothing on both sides then, which looks unlikely for either. Seems endless this.

    Nah, this is their D-Day, Russia have lost, it's just the matter of how long it takes them to accept it. Personally I think they lost when they failed to take Kiev, much like when the Nazi's failed to take Stalingrad.

    They didn't accept Afghanistan for 10 years mate. They may well have lost but they're persistent bastards and it's the length of time this goes on.

    You can't compare the 2 at all, and Russia didn't start getting it's ass kicked on the battlefield until the late middle 80's in afghanistan, they weren't getting some of their main battlegroups routed within 6 months.

    The scary thing is, how does Russia handle the tide of war turning. I just hope no one does anything stupid-er.
