    Good. As long as it doesn’t target civilian areas.

    Soldiers can always defect or surrender. Don’t want to face Ukraine’s army? Don’t be in Russia’s army. It’s that simple.

    I consider every Russian soldier complicit in this invasion of Ukraine. Otherwise they wouldn’t be there.

      It is anything but simple. Lot of them don’t really have a choice.

        A lot of them also believe getting captured by Ukraine is a death sentence, or worse.

        Their news is constantly talking about how Ukraine is inhumane towards their prisoners of war. Yet it’s Russia that does that.

      Guess you’ve never been threatened with Job loss, homelessness, starvation, or anything of that sort before. Must be nice.

        Actually I have. But I didn’t use it as sn excuse to invade Canada, and start blowing up schools and hospitals in an attempt to take over Canadian land. I didn’t run around killing others for my misfortune. But if I had, I would FULLY expect the Canadian military to do anything it could to kill me.

      Careful. Cults are a thing; and powerful for a reason.
