Blackout in Moscow: over 600,000 Russians are reportedly without power, according to Russian media. No official cause confirmed yet, but it follows earlier reports of a Ukrainian drone swarm targeting the region.

(79,926 posts)Ukraine would be easy to invade. Ukraine is weak, evil, powerless.
The Russian military is the best in the world.
Putin's lies are all being revealed.
The oligarchs are not stupid, they know exactly who is to
blame for their dwindling fortunes now that the Russian economy is tanking.
Russia simply does not have the resources to fight a long war.

Strange, since putin worked hard with the NRA to get weapons into the hands of the dumbest people in the US.

(25,979 posts)A modicum of sympathy AND simultaneously; what Putin has put both the soldiers and cvillians of Ukraine through - Moscovites are finally getting a taste of their own medicine!
Maybe it'll start the snowball downhill to push putting out! It's a slingshot, I guess.
