I worry that this is like another person (song?) said earlier. They are sending in fodder right now to tire and drain the Ukrainians before sending in the more experienced ones
That wuz me that said it

I had to change my avatar to Vitali, one of my fave fighters ever. It was Fedor before but seeing some nationalistic Russian on my page just felt wrong right now, while I am watching interviews with Vitali about how he is ready to take up arms and fight a bloody war. A real man worthy of respect, true fighter.

God these conflicts make for interesting bed fellows
I always think of this Churchill quote.

“If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favorable reference to the devil in the House of Commons.”

I'm assuming Russia wins the battle to go into and ongoing slog. But what happens if they lose?
Does Putin escalate and send more and more into the meat grinder? Tactical nukes?
I don’t think he will nuke Ukraine, Kiev and Odessa are very important to him. Then again, if he can’t have it maybe no one can?

and I’m sure he will escalate to massive aerial bombardments if he thinks he’s losing

So what is turkeys play here? Use this as a chance to shore up it's NATO affiliation?
Turkey and Russia have had better relations in the last 5 years but maybe they still aren't really that great.

i get it, but im very anti-forced draft. people should be free to fight if and only if they are willing to fight

some people would prefer to bend the knee. it is what it is
Disappointed. If you have enjoyed the benefits of your land you should be willing to fight for it. Fuck I was bummed out a couple of months back I couldn't go to Ukraine and get some contractor cash because I'm hurt. That turned out to be a blessing, I figured it would just be manning borders and posturing.

Zelensky should shoot a missile at Putin's palace on the black sea.

I assume most nearby countries are thinking they could be next? I know very little about Turkey.

I have been predicting that the Russians are fucked, but people should also calm down about reports of 'stunning Ukrainian victories' on literally day 1.

We still got 20 days of Baghdad Bob before the Yanks reached the capital and that was barely even a fight.

Fwiw Russia has struck a Turkish boat and fuck all has happened. Nobody cares about turkey because they are ghastly.
