Some people, perhaps including Putin, seem to have no understanding of what can go wrong when you get your country into a years long war and earn the hatred of your opponent.
Ukraine says it worked on this for 1 and 1/2 years. Never would have happened if Russia sought peace anytime up until a few days ago.
Trump had been telling everyone how dangerous this war is and it needs to stop.

This just shows what a sham all of ukraine's talk about desiring peace has been...

especially all the gloating that has occurred after the attack on russia

Time for Trump to withdrawl his diplomacy team and all arms intended for ukraine and let them and europe manage their conflict.

Who writes this crap? Guaranteed Russia will step it up now. We will be lucky if we make it through this war in one piece.

“ Agree, it’s like demanding that the US surrender after the Pearl Harbor attack.”

Yeah. Just like it. If the US had attacked and invaded and was waging war against Japan three years earlier.

It’s amazing how stupid you are.

Right, because after Russia launched one of its largest drone and missile attacks on Ukraine, they were not allowed to respond?

Russia on Sunday launched the biggest number of drones — 472 — on Ukraine since the full-scale invasion in February 2022, Ukraine’s air force said. June 1, 2025

I assume we too are unprepared. New tech yields new tactics.

Idiotic article. Heavily biased. Ukraine just sealed their fate. There was a chance, now there isn’t. It’ll be a miracle if anything from Ukraine is left of that country. It’s sad. They could of had peace but instead dawdled around and kept pushing peace talks and now we know why. This is a huge escalation which won’t end well.

The people who have egg all over their faces are no doubt Pres Trump and VP Vance, who belittled that guy in that Oval Office and arrogantly told him “you don’t have any cards left“… And there he is smiling, knowing behind the scenes his SBU has been brilliantly planning this attack on aging strategic nuke/cruise bombers at diverse bases all throughout RF for over a year and would he would deploy them soon… Others humiliated certainly are Putin as well as his Soviet useful idiots or assets here on free Republic… And I’m here for it… This Operation Spiderweb is one of the most stunning military attacks in modern military history. A major black eye for Moscow.

No, it's an excellent way to assure Russia responds with such force that Ukraine is forced to surrender.

If you really wanted to see Putin go, then you should be hoping he doesn't respond sufficiently.

There is no chance the Russian masses are going to tolerate anything less than an act of overwhelming force.

Absolutely fantastic…. I hope this gives Putin a brain aneurysm and Gerasimov a heart attack … I have more friendlier thoughts towards his supporters here on FR though. Hopefully they’ll come around and realize what a silly farce the former Soviet Union is.

Conclusion: Россия и ее сторонники полны дерьма.

So, how long do you think it took for ukraine to create these drone launching platforms, get them transported to their attack sites, and have all the people involved, trained for the attack?

So, sure... claim this was a response to an attack russia that occurred, what? today? to gaslight for ukraine...

if ukraine was serious about wanting peace, they wouldn't be targetting putin with drone attacks, nor committing any other attacks...

because zelensky really doesn't want peace to occur, this drone attack by ukraine would have happened at some point anyway....

Right before Ukraines attack, Russia launched its LARGEST attack on Ukraine, since the start of the war. 472 drones and seven ballistic and cruise missiles were involved in a wave of attacks on Ukraine

Russia on Sunday launched the biggest number of drones — 472 — on Ukraine since the full-scale invasion in February 2022, Ukraine’s air force said.

How could you possibly know what’s going to happen? Why do you think everything that happens to Russia is “the end of Ukraine”.

You seem to think nothing can happen to Russia, then when it does you insist Russia will destroy its enemy.

You don’t control Russia or Ukraine.

I do know Russia just lost some big chunk of its strategic bombers, and apparently they aren’t easy to replace.

Ukraine had agreed to the US proposed 30 day TOTAL ceasefire. Putin rejected it.

Yup, under nightly russian drone and missile attacks on its cities, Ukraine should just do nothing. Okay
