Invasion of Ukraine was a mistake

Even if Russia wins will it even be worth the cost?

Putin has no way to save face

He shouldn't even try. He should call this misadventure to a halt and get out.

When supposedly the "strongest military in the world" can't defeat a rag tag military using toy drones to drop mortars on soldiers his face is too far gone to save. Having his most sophisticated tanks taken out by our shoulder fired Javelin's enough that it stops them in their tracks.....yea...time to just leave.

As far as I know... Russia didn't supply the Taliban and the iraqi resistance with weapons to kill american soldiers.

So I believe a revenge attack (maybe a russian sub sinking an american warship).... a revenge attack that killed 2000 or 3000 american soldiers would be in order.

Now... good luck finding a way to exact this kind of revenge without starting WWIII.

Because America wasn't the aggressor after 9/11. Russia is, big difference.

Extremely stupid idea to invade, and it just showed how bad the army became under Putin's leadership.

They used up most of the resources, so there will be a lot less if Russia needs to defend itself. NATO won't attack unless Russia escalates, but Russia may escalate. Plus if Russia is very weak at some time, China may want a piece.

Plus the idea to draft random people, give them very little training and just send them to die cannot go well with the Russian people.

What alternative did Putin have?
If (when) Russia wins Ukraine will be demilitarized and de-Nazified which were Putin's original stated goals.

Burning up half of NATOs stockpile in Ukraine, and burdening their own people with more debt, was a mistake. And Ukraine isn’t even a NATO member…
