Ruskie Paratroopers hitting the streets now, so the bloodshed is going to ramp up significantly.
Just think of being a Ruskie parachuter, you gotta jump out into a war zone who knows, unless you are on the mark and fall into a safe zone, hundreds or thousands of people are roaming around, expecting you and want to kill you.
And it’s not very nice for the soldiers friends, loved ones kids and their parents. Also, they are not deploying all their military gear, so their soldiers are at the higher risk.
I’m pretty sure the Russian army is not too kind to pikers etc.
So for the Russian people as well, we need to end the war.
An honourable peace now.
Ukkie government into exile and the west can wait for the sanctions to work over time etc. Wait until the Russian people have had enough.
Once again, the Putin era is temporary.
My prediction is that the Russians will win militarily and the ukkie government will eventually have to flee. So no point in killing and maiming thousands along the way.
Six days of war and all we’ve managed to do with the Sabre rattling and posturing is get the Belorussians to change their constitution so as to invite Russian nukes into their soil. So more threat and potential death.
Western policy making so far has been knee jerk and a total abject failure. Putin hasn’t given up an inch.
All of the money heading to Europe for the war should be ploughed into the humanitarian causes.
We need long term strategic thinking, cool heads and a greater appreciation of life.
