—”No it won’t.”
Putin and his gang for years declared ALL of old Russia/USSR as belonging to today’s Russia.
Kind of like Finland, Transnistria, Georgia...
Right, in a country pre-invasion of 44 million, hundreds of dead will result in "no men to rebuild Ukraine."
>Right, in a country pre-invasion of 44 million, hundreds of dead will result in “no men to rebuild Ukraine.”
Try a 150,000, minus all the men that fled before the conflict (probably another million).
150,000 out of 44 million= 0.0034 of the population
Men didn't leave Ukraine, pretty much just women and children. There is a law banning their exit.
"It also said the Russian army was using its own soldiers like cannon fodder in Bakhmut, Spiegel added."
Losses in WW1 England
Over the course of the war(WW1), 880,000 British forces died, 6% of the adult male population and 12.5% of those serving.

Really? Tell that to Reverend Mother’s favorite unemployed Ukrainian airline pilot propagandist who slickly avoids being drafted and ordered into the very busy meat grinders.
This crap reminds me of the Viet Nam war body counts.
This week in Viet Nam 211 Americans were killed
3574 North Vietnamese and Viet Cong solders were reported killed.
The ultimate source is “Der Speigel” a major German media outlet.
About a million Ukrainians and Russians men each fled before Feb 2022.
It makes sense for Germany to change sides.
What price Königsberg?
I believe your units are off
Probably mean millions
Have only seen reports of considerable numbers of people fleeing after the invasion.
Some of the goals of this war are:
- Prop up the Federal Reserve and the dollar’s status as reserve currency.
- Implement the Green Agenda of depopulating the World. Starting with killing as many Ukrainians and Russians as possible.
- De-industrialize Europe.
- Redirect energy, resources and manufacturing to China.
- Pay off US politicians, especially Joe Biden.

This was so easy to forecast a blind man could have seen it. The Russians through attrition will eventually win unless the neocons get their wish for WWIII, then we all will lose. I don’t think they realize in a conventional war we have Milley and his prancing joint chiefs and a hollowed out woke military, being led by their president BiteMe. If it goes nuclear I don’t think the warmongers have figured it out that ICBM’s and their H bombs will not give them special consideration and let them live.
A negotiated end to the war is in all parties interests except for the US and it’s warmongers who want the $ war generates for the military industrial complex and the never ending death and all for something that has no strategic value whatsoever to the USA.
I think French is more his style.
Germany has real and legitimate commercial and political interests to salvage with Russia.
Real interests.
NATO, Democrats and neocons want to force it as a moral issue that nations must address...despite none having any real interests in Ukraine.
Destined to fail.
“If the USA ended its support of Ukraine tomorrow, the war would continue and probably Poland would intervene directly. “
Dumbasses might believe that.
No thinking person does.
Britain has never fully recovered from the 2 world wars.
Their standard of living is’nt comparable to our own,even after 75 years.
Britainia no longer rules the waves and the sun has set on the Empire.
The cowards who run are not the “can do” Alpha males who are giving their lives.
The betas will return after the war to populate their societies with sons of similar ilk.
Sissys.
