So you support the invasion of a sovereign country by a bunch of bullies and savages? Would love to see what you would do if Mexico ever decided to take Arizona back.

The only good Russian invader is either a dead one or one who surrenders/retreats.

They could be home right now enjoying their grandkids and a nice pension.

Lots of letters going out to lots of families.

The flip side is if he stayed home there are Ukrainians who would be alive and living their lives right now, and whole cities that would not be in ruins.

These guys all have to face their maker.

If the NWO,WEF,Soros,The Media (tm)., Clinton,Biden, LGBQTWQE all came out and proclaimed water was wet, you would object. Thats how bad your hatred blinds your moral compass.

The death of generals and officers in combat is the fastest way to reform a military because it makes the war real to the officer corps.

American generals and staff officers are always safe behind the lines so war is just a game and a path to profit for them. The next major war is going to expose our woke Princesses of the Pentagon even more than Afghanistan.

I’m still waiting for the right Russian or Russians to get fed up and take Putin out.

Lighten up, Francis.

And if it gets to us (”you and yours”) that will mean you and yours too. Think.

“Russia confirms that Maj Gen Vladimir Frolov, deputy commander of the 8th Army, was killed in combat in Ukraine.”

Don’t anyone blame me. I only shot the sheriff!

I just don't understand how it is that the Ukrainians have such an innate sense of where these Russian generals are going to turn up all the time.

It's like they have someone listening in on their phone and radio conversations or maybe even stealing their emails or something.

Maybe it's Martians.

signal traffic analysis such as used by NSA can spot location of nodes of even encrypted messages. C&C would be at the center of the comms signal web...Bang!

Actually it’s Putin’s way of getting rid of generals who don’t support him.

It may not be the Ukrainians. It might be a Russian conscript who got slapped around or beaten up one too many times, on the orders of some general. Or who wants Putin’s stupid war to end sooner so he can go home.
