Happy conscription day eve!
If Russia leaves, peace ensues, it’s not that hard of a concept. >

The only thing standing in the way of an armistice/Russia gtfo Ukraine is Putin’s pride. >

and Putin’s life >

I remember this BBC documentary series about WWI, and one of the episodes was called "For Such a Stupid Reason, Too." De-nazification? OK >

WW1 was the ultimate stupid reason for war. Then again, the old have never needed a good reason to send the young off to die in their wars. >


WW1 was the ultimate stupid reason for war

Not really, many MANY wars have been fought for stupider reasons, I'd say the assassination of the heir is a pretty decent reason as war justifications go. >

"Justification" is a bit much though, WWI was a war in search of an inciting incident. Europe at the start of the 20th Century was a tinderbox desperate to go off, if it hadn't been the Archduke it would have just been something else. >

At the end of the day it still was the Archduke, you can hypothesise about alternate incidents, but regardless the incident that kicked off WW1 was fairly justifiable was wars go. >

Bullshit. I'm lying in my bed in Moscow unable to sleep due to the enormous volume of fireworks. >

But are you SURE they are fireworks……..? >

Peace starts when the borders are back to 1991 lines.
