every russian woman young enough to bear children ive spoken to but 1 wants out. Desperately. These arent happy people who love putin. They're scared miserable people, most of whom are held together by the collective blaming of the west for their problems and the fear of what happens if they let slip they think anything differently. And quite a many who are just ashamed of where they're from.

100 percent fact. It's no coincidence that it is quite easy to get a smoking hot Russian mail order bride.

Putin points to boomerang effect of sanctions

“For example, they limit the exportation of our fertilizers – and their prices go up, far more than here. They try to limit our energy exports, and their prices go sky-high. They even try using my name to label their inflation, but the reality is we have absolutely nothing to do with it!” he said, to laughter from the audience.

The latter appeared to be a reference to US President Joe Biden’s insistence that the record price of gas at American pumps was a “Putin price hike,” though polls show most Americans are not convinced.

Wait... what??? LOL...
“This is solely the result of the huge mistakes they themselves made,” the Russian leader added. "And now they’re trying to, forgive me ladies, cover up a certain spot by blaming everything on Russia.”

I am no fan of the Russian loser Pootin, but sanctions are dumb, and have always been dumb. They never have the intended effect and only cause a butterfly effect. Check out fertilizer prices globally. Will lead to a poor harvest this year in many parts of the world.

I have no problem with sending Ukraine some of our weapons to use against the Ruskies. It's proven to be very enlightening to see how effective they are against our one of our rivals, but sanctions only cut off our nose to spite our faces.

The three idiots in here love to talk about how great Putin is and Russia. Don't even see the obvious dictator staring them in the face. It's why I believe they all have HUGE daddy issues.

Ironically, Putin isnt even a "strongman", but with the Western culture becoming so feminized, he seems like a strongman in comparison to the weak pathetic effeminate politicians in America.

Not sure what that has to do with his comment, but either way 90%+ of those that "serve" are the equivalent of the DMV in uniform. And they function about like it too.

I got the impression that he was trying to paint the Russian military as being on a holy mission and were conducting themselves with the utmost decorum and respect for the local Ukrainian civilians. But, all armies are the same once they’re in a combat zone. Zero ****s Given.

The places they are taking are majority ethnic Russian. I would assume a good percentage of the pro-Ukrainian folks got out of town.

Biden is senile and shows clear outward signs of being on his last leg. There is no evidence of Putin missing a beat. Plus, Putin is out and about fielding questions from the media and having meetings in public without scripts or teleprompters. Meanwhile, Biden has to be handled.

Yeah, we got the same intel and info in Syria.

How does our weaponry measure up? What have we learned?

Yeah... you inserted an image in your own mind. I've clearly made my points without you having to read tea leaves or trying to parse my words. I'm not going to say that with a large group of men engaging in violence and war that you are not going to have incidents. But to allude to The Red Army's behavior in Germany and extrapolate that into being indicative of the Russian Army throughout history is a ridiculous and disengenious claim and you damb well know it.

We have learned that our anti tank weapons are highly effective against their armor. That our stingers have no problem taking down their best planes. Harpoon missiles can smash their best ships, and we will soon get to see how effective U.S. artillery with the detect systems works.
