a very complex problem, not linear, and not clear what, where, who, and how ?
"will question fighting people that worship like them, look like them, eat like them, dress like them, speak the same language, and perhaps have the same uncle"
there is something intrinsic to being just like you are, so it might be Applied to both sides, but consider that didnt stop ukranians killing pro-Russians in the Donbass these last 8 years, apparently…and they were also members of the same family...also who started that ? i dont know
“Sadly, every Russian soldier has been exposed to government run news agencies etc since birth. They are just puppets thinking they are doing the right thing, rather than thinking. That's sad too. Different ways of stealing a life.”
yes, just like every other soldier…and citizen,...just put another country instead of "....every xxx soldier...", ethimologically soldier comes from "soldius" (latin) salary, we dont bite the hand that feeds...
“And that was a pre-nuclear world. There's lots of nukes now and I've always thought the only time you'll ever see them used, other than some rogue terrorists, is when a nuclear nation is backed into a corner and has nothing else to lose. Obviously Putin is threatened by NATO expanding to his door step, taking ex Soviet states in. How much will be push back?”
very good point, then add the economic pressure, and publicly sending weapons to enemies (the west has been sending weapons before, but that was not made public), it seems that there were many different interests in creating a war, it would benefit some, but always is the "suffer little children" those will be forgotten
"Putin has too much to lose to back down now.
And don't believe much of what is being portrayed as news during wars."
very true....
i think is terrible to even consider that someone can start a war for any interest and send people to kill others, but i do not have all the answers, that said war is unnaceptable
a war is an animal that has been fed for a while, you know when it starts but you can not be sure of when it will stop,
