Putin is going to get the Czar Nicky treatment if this keeps up.

There is nothing to “suspect” here. Russia has lost its war against the Ukrainian military and will return to its specialty of “fighting” women and children. Frankly, it’s all the Russian military is capable of. It’s designed from the ground up for this “mission.”

“Historically the goals of the Soviet Union mirrored that of Russia.”

Link please.

Yes, Stalin was Georgian, just as Hitler was Austrian.

But Stalin was a Russophile, and favored ethnic Russians, uprooting populations of more fertile lands who had lived there for centuries, in favor of ethnic Russians, also mandating that the Russian language be the main language taught throughout the entire Soviet Union.

Yes, Stalin rejected Lenin and Trotsky’s Internationalism, in favor of the traditional Russian geopolitical aims, a buffer in central Europe.

Russia started a war, assuming the rest of the west would let them do it.

They assumed wrong.

And blaming someone who is defending themselves is like blaming the victim of rape.

Russia starved a lot of Ukrainians. They are not very happy about Vlad trying to do so again.

That's an interesting view. Time will reveal if it is accurate.

Russia hasn’t declared full mobilization yet. I suspect she was trying to avoid that, as the costs to the economy and social fabric will be VERY high. Imagine the US doing so.

The question is what resources are left to fight with?

Remember the Hypersonic missiles that were supposed to wipe out Nato? Those are mostly gone. When you buy ammo from NK and drones from Iran, things are not going as well as hoped.

All because homo-erotic dancer Zelensky wanted to join NATO.

Germany declared war on Russia in 1914, because the Russians didn't stop their mobilization. Nicky and his cousin, The Kaiser, even wrote to each other trying to stop it, but to no avail.

By declaring the contested territories Russian land, they can send conscripts.

That is happening.

I also suspect that by doing the above, they can then claim Russia has been invaded and use their alliances to pull other aligned nations in to the fight.

So Belarus, which has been quietly sitting by since the opening days, will be compelled to attack by their treaty.

A legal fiction, but such is diplomacy.

I fully expect denial and hand waving, but there is a reason they welcomed the Nazi’s at first.

Bit like welcoming a wolf pack in to drive away a bear.

That sounds kinda national-socialisty...

“I don’t believe that Russia was a country in the 1930s..”

Really? Russia sure believed it.

“and the person running the Soviet Union wasn’t even a Russian.”

What’s your point?

Sorry, but that was a DIFFERENT country, vastly different.
