So draining
Over the past two months, Russia has (officially) lost one tenth as many soldiers as the Germans lost in their invasion of Poland (and de facto annexed two or three million Ukrainians). So draining.
The Moskva costs almost 2% as much to replace as the 2014 Winter Olympics. So draining.
In 1999, Russia had one third more births than Germany in 1917. So draining.
Quit being idiotic. And if you aren’t, ask your neighborhood pundit to stop being retarded. If North Vietnam -a country as populous as Yugoslavia and an economy vastly less than the British in 1943- could afford a war of reunification at the cost of one million dead, so can Russia at the cost of a hundredth of that and with an economy six times the size of the British in 1943.
But just how did Ukrainian military strength compare to South Vietnamese military strength? True, the South Vietnamese had the US on their side, but the US left eventually. In Ukraine, the US and the West provide the weapons and technology while the Ukrainians fight by themselves.
