An interesting thread by a Kazakh on the Russian mentality for supporting the war.

Replace the world Russia in that thread with Britain or America and you can see how our own populations will have been able to justify wars throughout the years.

The result of the 20 hour bombardment has raised concerns among the Ukrainian battle field commanders.
Several have complained that it was to much, and that it should not be done again.
And that there are too many dead Russians to process, and also that it was inhumane.
When even Sl****ska is green in the face and start to say that "they did not deserve this..." about Russian Mobiks. Then it is bad.
Who pays to rebuild Ukraine then???
Well reparations from Russia for a startWho pays to rebuild Ukraine then???
Agreed. Don't want anyone killed but the quicker the dictator's army are out of ALL of Ukraine the quicker lives stop being lost. Surrendering is not the same as regroupingDon't think I would agree with this, fair enough if they were surrendering, or trying to get out of the country, but they weren't they were just trying to get from one part of occupied Ukraine to another.
Of course, the loss of life is not good, it never is, but the hell unleashed there might actually improve the chances of a full withdrawal, which would ultimately lead to less "lost lives" from both sides in the future, and Russia would be firmly back in their box.
You can bet your hat that if it was the Ukrainians running, then Russia would be doing the same, and that's in Ukraine. If this was Ukrainians running away, in Russia then it would have been 100x worse.
Yes, some of the Russians won't want to be there, probably the vast majority, but they are there. The Ukrainians don't want to be fighting either, but they've been put in this position by Russia, and they are the weaker nation which has the right to defend itself from the occupiers by any means they see fit, providing it's not war crimes etc.
I think the rules of engagement that we use say you can't shoot at someone running away, but that only applies outside of war, and these rules get changed for times of war/ invasions etc.
I do hope so. I just want this to be over and the killing to stop.Ok, I will elaborate where I can, but things have moved on and my source is now unable to say as much for reasons I shall explain later but, a hint is that he is on his way to Indonesia.
In short, Surovikin has contacted Ukraine direct and asked for a 24 hour cease fire while his army withdraws. Where they are withdrawing to, not yet known, but it seems that they are looking to get out of S.E. Kherson, S. Donbass....basically to Crimea. It appears that Ukraine have granted this as, currently there is no artillery fire from either side.
It has taken two months but we are nearing The End. My source is now directly involved with negotiations to end the war, so can't say as much as before.
He says that there will be all kinds of rumours and threats over the coming weeks ...missiles, nukes etc, but to disregard them as diplomacy is now fully at work.
Off to run up a big hill now but will add more later, directly from him.
The End is hopefully within sight.
A further snippet. Both miliary and civilians outside of Crimea have been ordered to evacuate to Crimea. That is all I got as an update.I do hope so. I just want this to be over and the killing to stop.
That is all well and good, but the war crimes commited by Russian " citizens" against the Ukrainian population will not be easily forgotton. In towns and villages, its not just the politicians . It will take decades to forgive .Let’s hope for an end where the two countries politicians can live side by side as peaceful and harmonious neighbours for the good of the citizens.
