Prediction Thread: When Will Ukraine Conquer Russia

[The Mad Monk]

Even in PTG's time, corruption in the quartermasters of the army was rampant. As was abuse of the rank and file.

They had Peter The Great and Catherine The Great. All the others? Not So Great.

Communism? Bah. Look at the Tsars. Go back as many centuries as you like.

The Russian culture is so grift AND graft centric that I have trouble crediting that anybody over there really believes in anything.

Probably a consequence of 70+ years of communism and the Kleptocracy which followed.

Lies upon lies upon lies.

Well, at least he'd die for a cause he believes in

[The Mad Monk]

Nobody deserves that.

We are getting off track here.

Ukraine is clearly doing well because Serb hasn't posted recently.

Maybe he got 'volunteered':

The Russian military appears to be increasingly recruiting older Russian volunteers in order to sustain ongoing crypto-mobilization efforts. Russian opposition outlet Verstka reported on October 9 that a source in an unspecified Russian Airborne (VDV) unit operating in the Kherson direction stated that 40 percent of the unit's contract recruits and mobilized personnel are over 50 years old and that over 75 percent of new personnel are over 50 years old.

[The Mad Monk]

I call this, "The Serb Index".

No, but they ARE hiding behind them. The Ukrainian government evacuates its civilians from those areas that see the heaviest fighting. That is the difference between governments and terrorists.

To be fair, it's Gaza. Where, exactly, are they going to evacuate them?
