 I’m guessing had attempted desertion or something,can’t think of any other reason. I had read about rumors of using unwilling gunners in Sturmoviks in WWII and chaining truck drivers to the steering wheel in Vietnam War and perhaps they got the same idea. I’m forgetting the term Russians were using for volunteers in Ukraine other than “polite person” but possibly one of them that thought it was a good lark up until it was a real war but of course do not know.

OMG! Putin was right all along![/tinfoil]

Hard to say what's going on here. It looks to me like the guy could have undone his boot and slid his foot out. I think OOB's theory of ensuring the Russian didn't run away in the face oncoming Ukranians makes the most sense.

I don’t think there is anyone on here who dislikes Russians more than me. I am 100% in favor of killing them in droves and dearly wish  there was a video of a disintegrating IL-76 spitting out 125 of them on fire but I cannot support shooting prisoners.



  There is a manor house in the woods just 10 minutes from me that was used by the NKVD for interrogations and killings. Nothing has been done with it as quite frankly there is no desire to dig up the literal skeletons on the grounds. We know that Putin will react quite forcefully due to Russian embarrassment so it has been untouched. It’s impossible not to think about what evil took place there every time I walk by. I don’t think that evil should be embraced.

Well, yeah, when enough Mexicans move to Texas, they should just make it Mexico again, after they kill all the people who ain't Mexican, and say that Lousiana did it, or something like that. That would be okay, right? Heck, they could invade California while they're at it, and just say that all of America used to be theirs.

Now Brandon’s policy with respect to sanctions has half the world’s population looking to do international trade with something other than the dollars they used in the past. And yes, China, India, and Russia is over half the population. When the dollar is no longer  the defacto international currency, then the majority of dollars that are in existence, which aren’t inside the US economy will come back into the US economy. What will that do to prices?
This is how Putin can win this war even if he loses. He wanted to destroy the US dollar and the power it gives the USA, but he wasn’t able to. Well until  our president handed him this.
Of course anything that shows a possible Russian win is propaganda, at least that’s the acceptable Ukraine position in this thread. Maybe Zelensky is smarter and playing the game with Putin? When the dollar dies commodities will skyrocket and Ukraine exports a lot of commodities like Russia.  Could be quit profitable for the leader and savior of Ukraine…

The govt must borrow (sell bonds), or print. They just use the Fed to make all that easier for themselves.

But as for what you're saying about Russia and the cold war, yes. Anything could happen. A Serb could assasinate an Archduke and start the ball rolling. Could. But it's not likely.

And if you'd not been so quick to dismiss the rest of the lecture, you'd get that. Russia ~ and China ~ will not be likely to feed themselves, much less take over the free world.

Came here to say this.  I think what he is getting at is that even though old folks spend less, politicians tend to print money to take care of them. There are not enough young workers paying taxes to take care of all the aging boomers.  In the real world where decisions are made based on political considerations, demographics CAN drive economics.

The other difference is that Ukraine is a functioning state and military; its much easier to train up and upgrade an existing competent force under a national government that wants you there.

Afghanistan is not a real nationstate so much as a collection of tribes, militias, and villages occupying a geographic area. Muchhhh harder to make them into a real military.

I talked to a military chaplain, he had some interesting anecdotes from his soldiers. Apparently some of the troops are hanging Ukrainian flags on abandoned/out of fuel Russian equipment and covering up the IFF marks so the next Russians that come along blast them.
