re: Looks like Ukraine is trying to create a mother of all motti's with Kyiv perimeter

Russia could squash this resistance in 3 days if it wanted to. Its trying to demoralize Ukraine into capitulation and accepting its fate.

Believe 20% of what you hear.

Putin is a bad guy but something about this whole thing stinks. There's seems to be more motivation to this than whats being broadcast.

I can't support Ukraine or Russia. I won't pretend to understand either side's POV or motivations.

I just refuse to paint with a broad brush after watching the US dick around the ME for 20 years and accomplish nothing in the name of "freedom".

The stiff Finnish resistance forced Moscow to ultimately commit over 760 000 men, 6500 tanks and 3800 airplanes against a nation of only 3,5 million people.
In the it was just a war of attrition that nearly depleted both sides, but with smaller resources Finland was forced to hand over most of Karelia to USSR.
Despite a nominal victory and enough lands to bury the 170000 dead Soviet soldiers and go gather their thousand knocked out tanks, the humiliation was unbearable for Stalin.

What can we learn from the Winter War

War doesn’t need one man, it requires every man and woman rallied around a common cause.

Survival and duty motivate far better than fear or glory.

Quality can outmaneuver and outgun quantity.


Moscow will always lie.

The Finnish war is overrated at this point, do people not know that the Finnish still lost?
