  Well what's the alternative? If Ukraine stops fighting, their land and people are occupied, and we've seen endless examples of how well Russia treats people they've occupied, hell even how they treat their own people. 
  If Russia stops fighting, life goes back to normal and internationally recognised borders are restored.
context: Toward the end of World War II on March 19, 1945, Adolf Hitler issued his infamous “Nero Decree,” which called for the systematic destruction of Germany. The order was largely thwarted by Hitler's armaments minister, Albert Speer.
  Putin is dragging Russia to a point that eventually the country itself may break up further just like Yugoslavia did. >
  
  Yes, Putin go all in, he already a old man and whatever happend to russia in future is not his problem soon, maybe some of russian minority regions want to break out? >
  
  It's very hard to think of a war that didn't go on for some time. >

  The USSR's last futile war was Afghanistan. Now it's Ukraine. Mother Russia is poised to repeat their mistake. >
  
  It fucking doesn’t have to be that long. It’s not like Ukraine is asking for that much. Just give them enough to take Crimea and the kremlin will fall shortly after. >
  
  Carthage must be destroyed. Oops. I meant Russian must be destroyed. >
  
  Genius prediction >
  
  Honest question, how long must it go on? If the conflict continues as a war of attrition how will Ukraine keep up with replenishing their troops and personnel with 1/3 the population of Russia? How many Ukrainians must die fighting over a stalemate?
  But I’m sure the revolving door of defense officials and military contractors don’t care for these questions as long as the money and weapons keep flowing
