Groundskeeper Willie has never said a truer thing. Apart from: "The kilt was only for day-to-day wear. In battle, we donned a full-length ball gown covered in sequins. The idea was to blind your opponent with luxury."

No, you listed items that the Soviets didn't really need to outproduce the Germans in. Did the Soviets ever have raw material shortages? Can you drive a ship through the plains of eastern Ukraine?

No but that's not the point I was making.  If you want the conversation to be productive you need to make a vague effort to understand my points.

The loss is felt across the nation, I'm sure.

... and for serious sanctions to start, not silly ones that have no impact at all.

Possible answers

1) When "rebels" will get aviation
2) When "rebels" will get tactical nukes
3) When "rebels" will appear in Baltic states?
4) When "rebels" will appear in Germany (I am sure that idea to restore GDR can be used)
5) Never


Light red\Pink = DNR\LNR. Yellow - liberated territories that were under Russian control (and no , there are no guerrilla warfare in yellow... so strange. They are waiting for something. Oh, I know. Everyone is dead after Right Sector arrived)
That big map shows how the whole South-Eastern Ukraine rebelled against American puppet-gay-Zionist-Neonazi junta

For an aggressive violator of Ukrainian territorial integrity and the next Hitler, Putin is incredibly inert. If he was actually concerned about conquering Ukraine (or at least Donbass), he would have sent Russian army divisions to Ukraine back in March or April. Or, at least he could have manned and supplied the rebels well so they wouldn't have to take WW2 tanks off war memorials and be on defensive all the time (and eventually retreat).

The probability of anything described by UR actually occurring are as great as the probability of Belarus invading Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine and Russia to reclaim rightful Belarusian clay.

Also, according to Guardian, Russian expats in London complain about the rise of anti-Russian sentiment in Britain, which is fuelled by British mass media.
Called it.

If all Putin really did want was to secure the black sea fleet and fuck up a potential future EU state he's already accomplished his goal. Trying to outright conquer Ukraine would carry the risk of causing the world to explode, so it's much safer for him to do nothing and look inward to consolidating Russia. He doesn't really have moral issues with invasions, he's a pragmatist.

If you haven't noticed, the world is kinda already exploding.

Just look at the amount of wars waged today in all regions of the world. Much higher than 10 years ago.

You have said this so many times I have lost count. I don't know why you keep bringing this up when we've been over this 150 times.

The only likely thing he said is the Baltic thing. I've known Russo-Latvians and I don't think there's anything "Latvian" about them.

Baltic states are in NATO and are very anti-Russian. Conquering them would only give us problems. So no, not very likely.

It doesn't matter if Latvia is in NATO. Do you think that if Ukraine joined NATO all of its problems with Eastern insurgents would go away?
