Yes and that is why I shared the link to the rules, I helped draft them many years ago when PDF was in its infancy so you don't need to share them with me .

Yes, but video will not open. It goes to twitter site so should not be a problem.

Ah ok. So you can post it like that.

I know right, made me laugh how his question was batted away.

Russia screwed. Even If you wanna sell the whole Ukraine, it won't be worth that much.

I still don't understand how Putin made such a mistake.

It's a military victory, but a geostrategic blunder.

Don't want NATO on your border? Well, now you're guaranteed gonna have NATO on your border, because suddenly, Russia's European neighbours are very nervous.

Russia first day losses (Ukraine Claim)

7 Aircraft
7 Helicopters
24 Tanks
20 Armored Vehicles


(The loss of Ukraine, on the other hand, probably larger than that, especially its air defense capacity was largely neutralized.)

OSCE will temporarily evacuate all its staff from Ukraine​

So if you parachuted 82nd Airborne on an airport near the capitol of a country on first day, you believe its all over?

From Bush's POV, 'mission accomplished. Our belief does not matter.

That's a completely misguided view. Sometimes you're backed into a geopolitical corner and you have no choice but to fight out of it. The "blunder" was the USSR adopting a defective socio-economic system and not being able to maintain the gains they made in WWII. Putin is just trying to clean up this historic mess.

Russia doesn't want NATO on its border, but it doesn't have a choice in the matter. There's no amount of "nice" Russia can be that will cause NATO to move away from the border. Yeltsin was a Western stooge yet NATO still expanded. Self-defense is never a blunder.

Russia is going to get NATO on its border no matter what it does. The best it can do is strengthen its position as much as it can.

By completely having it's economy destroyed. Yup.

Russia should have stopped at the rebel held areas, and called it a day. No one would have cared, and sanctions wouldn't have been so severe.
