    I agree. I wanted to say it’s kind of immoral to write that propaganda when you’re not even fighting yourself. And it’s twice as immoral when you know that no one wants to fight anymore and people are forced against their will. Not that something should be banned.

      Do you know how effective military forces are, when people are fighting against their will?

      What’s your explanation for why Russia outnumbers Ukraine about 20-to-1, is outspending them by about 10-to-1, and is stalled about 100 km from the border, after three years of fighting?

          km, not km². The red part at the eastern edge of Ukraine is about 100 km thick.

          My point is that that’s an incredibly poor showing for Russia fighting against a massively outnumbered enemy that’s mismanaging a war fought by people who don’t want to fight. And, on top of that, they have people giving advice to NATO and the EU about how they should organize their militaries, as if they have a bunch of authority and insight as to how to do it. What’s your explanation?
