View submission: War in Ukraine Megathread
1. Fuck the Russians. My dad was also an armor dood in Europe in the early 80s, so fuck them.
2. As bad of a situation as this is for Ukraine, this is potentially the best thing for NATO in terms of intelligence on Russian capabilities and learning definitively their order of battle, and how they fight and move.

Agree on both. We got a good peek at their capabilities on a smaller scale in Syria, but now Europe can witness it first hand.
Honestly, this is the worst thing Putin vould have done from a geopolitical standpoint unless he is desperate to wag the dog or really has lost his mind and thinks hes on a grand crusade to reunite the SU or bring all Russian ethnic groups back into the fold
