Wow… how do they have time for intramural fights between shelling their own nuclear power plants, their own multibillion dollar pipelines and their own bridges? Enquiring minds want to know. /sarc
In 67 to 69 AD, during the first Jewish Roman war, Jerusalem came under siege.
Now it initially had enough food to rude out a decade long siege.
But the defendants decided that, under siege by the most formidable juggernaut army, they would have a civil war. Between the conservatives, the Zealots and the Idumeans.
They burnt each others grain stores and by 69, there was no food in the city and people resorted to cannibalism.
If people could go into civil war in those circumstances, no wonder Putin’s coterie are going so now.
