Of course they do. That’s what happens when you invade someone, the someone you invade also hits back at you.

In fact this is basically the only way for the war to end. By capturing Russian territory Russia now has a reason to come to negotiations to just call everything off to get their land back.

Russia is just lucky the land is tied down or the farmers would have towed it back home…

Ukraine captured land in kursk and this did not cause the Russians to come to the negotiating table, nor signal that they will weaken their demands. In fact, they simply started taking land even faster in Ukraine because Ukraine had committed resources into kursk instead of the front lines.

All it goes to show is that westerners have a complete non-understanding of this war.

We have a strategy-god here everybody!

“Westerners” have a great understanding of this war. You cannot win a war by just defending your land from your own land.

Fuck russian terrorist shitheads.

Same applies for Palestinians, Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam. You’d be totally fine with that.

Absolutely! Imperialism is bad when Russia does it, and when American/Israel does it.

Nonono you’re not supposed to have principles, you’re supposed to just pick sides instead otherwise ‘what about USA’ won’t work as a gotcha. Just think of the poor tankies, whatabout USA is all they have, would you really tankie that away from them?
