Russia Ukraine war, page-23144

Stalin was probably worse and the nilitary hated him for the purges which were cynical attempts to remove anyone competant that could be a threat - but he survived and died of natural causes .
Seems Putin also purging though not killing his people as Stalin did .
Wouldn't bet against the evil sanguinary illegitimate .

But I really can't see this war , in it's current form at least , lasting too long .
Too much attrition - troops and equipment both ,and while the west is re-supplying Ukraine Russia might be scratching to manufacture enough to be sufficiently combative after the big offensive is finished in a month or so .
