Yes they will. The West will never forgive him for the massive casualties and deaths
I won't forgive or forget that Obama (who has really excellent skin colour and a Nobel Peace Prize for being a great colour or something), Nuland and gang started the war.

The USA invaded Vietnam, half a world away, not right next door. Russia wanted to prevent being chucked out of Sevastopol and to avoid atomic bomb rockets and all the rest being installed ready to attack Moscow. Vietnam was no threat to USA half a world away.

USA killed millions of Vietnamese. Have you heard of lt William Calley?

USA fried many with napalm and a lot more besides.

USA favoured one side in Vietnam. Russia favours one side in Eastern Ukraine.

There's an easy and happy and immediate solution. But the murderers in USA and Kiev don't want it.

They had better be very careful because nuclear Armageddon is perhaps just a day or 4 away. I'm predicting the first atomic bomb on 12 March. A wake up and look into the abyss warning.

I don't know where but I guess it will be in international waters and perhaps high over, ummm, maybe an aircraft carrier fleet. That would get some attention.

At present, the arrogant bullies ruling the Euroserfs, Yanks and other countries think they can gang up on and crush Russians.

They are very short sighted as China will win very bigly if Russia is ruined. Or if the USA, Euro, Russia gangs destroy each other.

Vietnamese seem to bear no animosity. Just as I don't bear animosity to Japan or Germany. The Ukraine conflict is trivial compared with Germany, Japan WWII attacks, USA attacks on Vietnam, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, East Timor, etc. As years znd decades roll by, people look to the future. Even old combatants are not treated badly.

I blame Obama, Nuland, Power, Clinton, Kerry, Zbigniew, Clapper, Brennan, Jarrett, Rice, (maybe both Susan and Condoleezza), and those I forget. Oh, of course Bidens ... Joe10% and horrible son Hunter. I'll throw Klaus Schwab in there too.

There's an easy way to peace but Ukraine and Biden10% and the Pentagon and kickback cronies don't want peace.

There was much virtue signaling just 4 years ago about 100 years since WW1, never again, lest we forget, bugles, and they have already forgotten.

UN yesterday reported over 360 civilian deaths in Ukraine. That’s very sad - it’s tragic. But, does it fit the narrative of unrestrained bombings for so many days? - of total warfare against dozens of large cities and population centers? Not quite. If it were true, it would be many times as many.

RB, generally I like your posts, but this subject you need to think over a bit more attentively. You think that after decades of won battles and lost wars (including the recent capitulation in Afghanistan, to a bunch of determined peasants) we can simply waltz into Moscow, arrest Putin, give him a fair trial and then hang him? i don’t think so. Besides, what’s the point - their next president would be doing the same thing.

They’re offering to stop hostilities provided their demands are met? Take them up on it. It’s consistent with what they wanted since the 90’s. They would stop. Much smarter than keep flirting with end of the world scenarios. The Ukrainian people would probably be very grateful. And so would be the “normals” of the rest of the world.

My rule is not to try changing people’s minds. It’s a lot of work - and practically never works.
In this post, if you haven’t seen it, I describe my view, in brief. Message 33743413

PS - and… Putin destroyed the global economy and caused inflation? In one week?

Yep. Think it over.
