  Why the f16 not f15 though? Can someone shed some light
context: Medvedev is kind of a dick. >
  
  He’s a special kind of dick >
  
  A very small, limp dick >
  
  More of a flaming asshole, imo >
  
  And dicks fuck assholes. >
  
  Russian attempt at genocide is foiled 
  Russian yells about genocide 2.0 
  That’ll show them pesky countries that deliver supplies and support >
  
  Russians so proud murdering Slavic people in Ukraine. >
  
  Medvedev talks too much. >
  
  He talks too much in an attempt to terrify westerners with the prospect of WW3. >
  
  It's for internal consumption >
  
  I think Medvedev and a lot of Russian propaganda isn't necessarily supposed to be for internal consumption. I think they're intentionally trying to come across as unreasonable and intransigent in the hopes that eventually over a long period of time the west will grow tired of supporting the war knowing that Russia cannot be reasoned out of Ukraine. 
  They're trying to make it known that the only way Russia is leaving is if they're kicked out physically and hope that maybe after a prolonged conflict the west will give up trying to do it and cut our losses. 
  I hope and don't think it will work but no one can predict the future. >
  
  The thing is, the only country with real losses that is supporting Ukraine is Ukraine itself. Everyone else is just kind of trading equipment for a weaker Russia, most of which is outdated anyway. That and monetary support, but that also goes towards weakening Russia, which is something I'm sure much of the west wants.
  I highly doubt Ukraine will give up, and I don't really see a reason for support to stop, as even outside the obvious moral reasons for it, the west enjoys weakening Russia without putting much at all on the line. >
  
  West does want a weaker Russia.  We are now seeing what happens when they have decades to gain strength.  Ukraine isn't their only target. >
  
  Why do people keep saying this?
  They are having enough fun trying to take and hold Ukrainian land. They have no way to sell a massive war effort towards anywhere else unless attacked. >
  
  This conflict is the proof that this wouldn't be the last time, if the international community had just let them do what they want. About five minutes ago they invaded and annexed Crimea, and everyone just shrugged, thinking that it might be a one off. Putin and his cronies didn't have to sell this conflict to anyone. Putin has control of the decision making organs of Russia. He just mumbled "uh well nazis" and the vast majority of the common people of his nation fell in line, both because they're down with it and because they have no other choice. The international community doesn't want WW3 so they won't intervene directly.
  If everyone else had again done nothing, this would very likely already be over and Putin would be sniffing out the next ex-soviet country to invade. Dude has imperial ambitions and doesn't need anything else.
  But of course the international community DID do something and thus for now Russia's capabilities have been curtailed. Mission partially successful at the moment from the perspective of everyone else, and now the goal is to bleed Russia as much as possible to buy a decade or two of reduced Russian ability to pull something like this again. >
  
  5 minutes*a big-ass number=8 years >
  
  I'm old AS SHIT and I just double checked, it was deffo 5 minutes ago. >
  
  I thought they were rescuing Ukraine…I guess burning means the same in Russian. >
  
  From their point of view, it is the United States that is the aggressively militant, hostile, and belligerent rogue nuclear state, with NATO as merely an extension of their military might; therefore any military aid sent to Ukraine on behalf of any NATO country is, in their view, sufficient evidence that they are justified in continuing the war even if it ends up destroying the whole country.
  While I have some serious doubts as to their ability to do so, I still believe that they will try. That is the part I really worry about; that, in the last year, they have not given up the fight despite fierce global opposition and getting sanctioned by virtually every country on the planet. Unless a critical mass of their troops mutiny against their commanding officers, they may be forced to fight to the bitter end.
  Which raises the following questions: in the ruthless calculus of war where the preferred outcome is minimal loss of life, is intervention to preserve the sovereignty of Ukraine at the cost of potential escalation towards a global war? If the preferred outcome is in status quo ante bellum, is it worth the cost of turning the war into a protracted conflict that goes on for many years longer and potentially affect as many people? These are the sorts of questions that must be thought about and answered right now, and honestly, they are questions I bet absolutely nobody, not a single person in our entire alliance ~~of glorified vassal states eternally subservient to the glorious American Empire~~, had any interest in answering. >
  
  Yeah let’s just let Putin destroy the country and do whatever. The US didn’t give a shit about Russia till they pulled this. Love the dictator apologists >
  
  Why, I’m surprised at you. “Just turn a blind eye and let them do whatever they want” seems to be the prevailing attitude here in the Western world regarding everything America does internationally. How do you not see yourselves in the mirror that is this entire “special military operation”? This is what the Gulf, Iraq, and Afghanistan Wars looked like to everyone outside your bubble: a rogue state invading another country under the extremely flimsy pretence of ~~civilising~~ ‘liberating’ them from ~~all their natural resources~~ their own culture. Mass killings, strategic bombings of schools and hospitals, torture and execution of civilians—atrocities you would never hear the end of if it were anybody else; but not only are people okay with this, they have a remarkable capacity for never even hearing about it. Don’t you have a sense of empathy? Don’t you care about the sanctity of all human life regardless of who they are? De-escalation is what I was hoping asking these questions would lead to, not ‘follow war with more war’. >
  
  Yes what America did in Iraq was wrong, what Putin is doing in Ukraine is wrong lmao
  It’s not that complicated, don’t invade sovereign nations and cause mass destruction. >
  
  This all sounds very complicated when it isn’t: learn to empathise with people, even if you totally disagree with them. That way, you can understand their motivations, their goals, and therefore, develop the best ways to counter them. Understanding how it looks from the other side is not the same as siding with them; wish that bit of knowledge would get through your notoriously thick skulls. >
  
  Lmao yeah we know what the Russians think and they are completely delusional. America doesn’t want to end Russia they never did. Russians are fed a steady diet of propaganda by their dictator.
  We’re not going to sit idly by while Russia steals land and commits war crimes. This can end any day when they give Ukraine their land back. Or I guess maybe you think they deserve that land?
  I wonder if you would have tried to empathize with Hitler too? >
  
  Well, you know how all the propaganda here paints the enemy as completely delusional? That is what they think of you, and the result of thinking your enemies are irrational, driven by bloodlust, and regularly commit atrocities (i.e. atrocity propaganda) has always resulted in more atrocities committed by everyone who has a stake in the war because they feel any action is justified. I don’t want that, and neither should you.
  I’m also not asking anyone to stand idly by; I’m asking people to think through this more carefully instead of getting outraged by the mass propaganda tailored to make you feel outraged. What happens today will affect the course of this war for years to come. We can’t afford to do anything rash, yet we also can’t do nothing. A very difficult position indeed, but not impossible, and it’s one that can be solved by having some compassion for the people, not by ruthless fanaticism. >
  
  We are fucking outraged by the invasion of a sovereign nation and the horrific war crimes that have followed. This isn’t propaganda it’s video of the crimes in real time. Get a fucking grip >
  
  And you see how it’s affected your inhibitions? Anything can be propagandised if it’s presented with an agenda; and an angry populace is easier to manipulate into being okay with committing atrocities in return than a thinking one, and even though that anger is righteous and fully justified. You need to get a grip. >
  
  Whatever happened to freeing Ukraine from Nazi's? I thought they were on a special liberation mission? >
  
  The special military operation's stated objectives are to protect the Russian people in Ukraine (anyone who speaks Russian, has ethnically been Russian, or has a Russian passport even if given by force/coercion) in the Donbass and beyond, eliminate Ukraine's neo-Nazi movement, protect Crimea, and de-militarize Ukraine. Add on to that now that they've formally laid claim to 4 oblasts, by Russia's territorial claims, they are the ones being invaded and defending themselves.
  There's no longer any shortage of ways to twist this and justify it to their people and allies. It's horrible but Russia has smeared so much bullshit around that it needs their own people to see beyond it to actually get held accountable for their hypocrisy, and they don't seem motivated yet. >
  
  Holy fuckin - slow clap - to that. Well said my dude! >
  
  Again? The problem with using the same threat every month for literally everything is that everyone just ignores it. >
  
  You will burn for this! >
  
  "and how much will burn if no more supplies?"
  ALL OF IT! >
  
  3,000 Grave Threats of Russia >
  
  3000 Final Warnings of Russia >
  
  3000 last calls for alcohols >
  
  Why do Russian officials sound like the belligerent children in the COD lobby??? >
  
  Cause nlaws are noobtoobs. Use a proper gun. >
  
  Switch 'Ukraine' with 'Russian invaders', please get on with the reality. >
  
  Russia's Medvedev says more US weapons supplies mean 'all of ~~Ukraine~~ Russian invaders will burn'
  "Ah, fuck, how will we even fucking exist?"- Dmitry Medvedev >
  
  By threatening big d1ck energy while flaunting baby d1ck energy >
  
  Weren't they just forced to halt one of their advances because it had become a meat grinder where Ruzzian soldiers went in one end and fertilizer came out the other?
  Probably not the best time to be making threats. >
  
  Hey, record it and send it to me when they grind Putin into fertiliser! >
  
  His remains will be more like salt to the Earth I'm sure. >
  
  Medvedev is just being loud and dumb on purpose. He plays the role of loud, obnoxious clown so that no one could doubt his "patriotism." After all, he had many houses in Europe, and his son was a USA resident for years, so now he must shout really loud about his loyalty to Putin. Also, it is done as a protection from paranoid Putin. If he behaves dumb enough, no one will see him as a threat to replace Putin, especially as he was president before.  Lastly, he currently has no real power, so he shouts weird obscenities to draw attention to himself as a "patriotic citizen," hoping that someone gives him some measure of power because of it. So, there is no reason to pay attention to him whatsoever. >
  
  Plus, Putin's old court jester (Vladimir Zhirinovsky) died last year, so someone needs to step up as the crazy to make Putin seem restrained, and Medvedev needs to earn his loyalty by trying to seem like a insane choice for a replacement to Putin >
  
  It's like they gotta know they're talking like they're James Bond Villains.. 
  but they're so narcissistic they probably actually think they are the good guys. =/ >
  
  someone should deepfake the "are we the baddies?" sketch with putin and medvedev faces, lol. >
  
  hahaha XD >
  
  
  all of Ukraine will burn
  
  Sounds like a nice guy, with the world's best interests at heart. 
  These Russian oligarchs and twisted beauraucrats make the QAnon-infested GOP look like cub scouts. >
  
  Yawn. 
  There was a time when I'd get seriously anxious about Russian threats. Nowadays they elicit at most an amused chuckle before I keep going with my day. >
  
  Can't wait to watch you swing. >
  
  Russia needs to stop whining like a little bitch. The Russians are the ones who invaded and it is the Ukrainians who are being forced to fight. >
  
  From what?? We've seen your bribery-riddled weaponry. >
  
  Only the bad guys talk like that in movies >
  
  That doesn’t sound like something a liberating country would say hm >
  
  Maybe he misspoke and meant to say half of Moscow will burn. Hey, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. >
  
  Like this? >
  
  Medvedev just confirming that the Russians are just evil. >
  
  US will up the ante by providing more offensive weapons down the road so Russian soldiers will feel the wrath of Ukraine. >
  
  Least genocidal Russian >
  
  If I have to hear about Russia for another year, I will fly to Russia and stab these two old boomers in the face with a soldering iron, myself. >
  
  This show sucks. Somebody tell me if they get a new writer. >
  
  What, you're not enjoying the Russian Bond villain schtick? >
  
  Well, without Russia, it wouldn't burn at all.
  Medvedev doesn't care, he just show Putin he doesn't deserve to fall from a window. >
  
  He has to yap loudly to himself because no one has taken him seriously for a long time, both within the Russian government and abroad. >
  
  BlahBlahBlah >
  
  He really is a bad propagandist. 
  He's also petrified at the prospect of Russia facing US-made weapons. Medvedev knows Russia is not even remotely equipped to go up against modern weaponry with their 1970s technology. >
  
  I think he meant more Russian troops will die and Russia will go bankrupt losing a war. >
  
  Yeah I'm sure Ukraine would rather get no weapons while you murder and rape... you Russian dogs. Russia has really outed themselves as having diverged from civilization. >
  
  The United States giving them weapons just frees up space for next gen weapons for the United States. 
  Is a win- win
  The weapons they're getting aren't old,  they still are effective. >
  
  He's super serious this time you guys. >
  
  Putin's cockholster had time to open his mouth last week and all that came out was pro-war gurgling mixed with cum. >
  
  Good luck with that. Feel free to recklessly overextend yourself and kill off another hundred thousand Russians. >
  
  Putin seems to be committing genocide against Russians as well. >
  
  okay Medvedev, lets get you your meds and then get you up to bed... >
  
  Thanks for all the money you wasted on all the world's politicians. None of it worked! >
  
  All of ukraine will burn… with passion to fight for their country!!!! >
  
  Someone throw that barking dog a bone . >
  
  Big talk. >
  
  Interesting cause I’m pretty sure it means the opposite >
  
  What a coincidence, that's exactly the same result if there were not more weapons supplies. >
  
  Well, the locations of Russian troops anyway. >
  
  Correction: the parts of Ukraine where Russians are will burn. >
  
  u/Speculawyer: Sore loser says he will commit more war crimes. >
  
  Yknow what, just for that… F-16s are on their way
