It's a war. People take sides in war. This isn't cartel guys knocking each other off in Mexico

I really doubt it. He might get "taken care of" before that could even realistically happen.

For some reason I couldn’t quote OP so I’m quoting you
This is a US website. Go figure. If this was a Rus or Chinese or Indian etc it would be opposite

A moment of silence for the local pro Russians and wannabe edgelords.

Question to you. How is what Rus MOD saying about retreating on Kharkiv front is different from Ukr MOD talking about “evac” from Azovstal or tactical retreat from Severodonetsk? You obviously supported Ukr statements back then, but absolutely trashing Rus move

Duntez, I am the closet thing to an impartial observer around and I can assure you this is completely different and Russia is in big trouble here.

Russia is in big trouble I acknowledge it. I don’t see how is it different from calling surrender of AZOV people an “Evac” or retreating Ukr forces from Severodonetsk as tactical ( which I actually agree with, they were in danger of getting surrounded) from Russian retreat from Izum and so on to not get encircled.

Because in the initial phases it was to be expected to have to leave stay behinds and such. This was needed to delay as long as possible and achieve the buildup used for the current offensives. They went pretty smoothly too. I agree with Severodonetsk as well, that was a masterpiece of a withdrawl, the exact opposite of what Russia is doing in their withdrawl to Lysyschansk right now.

Now I could be wrong and buying into PR, but the news tastes correct at the moment.

You're comparing a few hundred Azov guys getting evacuated or captured in a single industrial complex in Mariupol to a huge amount of Russian troops getting captured or retreating out of an entire Ukranian oblast because the Russian war effort there is clearly no longer sustainable?

Russia should be trashed. And fortunately their military leadership sucks, and Ukraine's doesn't. Absolutely got their asses handed to them on a silver platter, Zaluzhniy and the guy in charge of ground forces in Kharkiv did a masterful job of this, I'm still shocked at the speed of this

I love Russia, I want this over with and no one else to die and then we can all party. I hate the Orc/Khohol crap. Fortunately the military leadership is helping this go faster. Almost like it's what they want too.
