Just wondering if the Russians took into account that even if they “win” the war, they will be dealing with rebels in Ukraine for decades, further adding to the human and material losses they have already suffered.
They thought they would take Kyiv in 3 days.
Now, they are just trying to avoid a devastating defeat.
Russia could always decide to turn the lights out permanently in Ukraine and flood Europe refugees if that happens.
But, here you advocating turning Ukraine into Palestine. More proof of what despicable POS you neocons are.
