"The Russians", it isn't a country that decides to go to war. It is a handful of people at the top. Do you think that these young lads want to risk their lives in gunfire, or would they rather be at home with their friends and families? They are there because someone far more powerful told them to be there. Why not direct your anger towards them? Cheering their deaths like it's sport is disgusting.

Do I think they want to be at war? No.

Do they bring war though? Yes.

If you would shed a tear for killing someone who would oppress you, who would kill you, or your family, then that’s fine.

I will not, however.

Why would any sane person cheer deaths. If we could have forced your hypothetical invading Germans to retreat with minimum loss of life then I’d have been happier than killing thousands to achieve it. Feel free to cheer on people with families being killed but don’t expect most decent people to join in with you.

Because the "deaths" will be people who are coming to kill, in this case coming to kill people who had no interest in fighting. Fuck them all.

You said you’d risk nuclear war to defend Estonia, but not Ukraine. I would risk it to defend both. That is literally the only difference here but you’re acting as if you’re somehow better than me.

Lol. I don't think that. I don't even know you. I just think your analysis is hugely naive and massively flawed. I can't explain it anymore to you. But opinions and all that. I just pray Johnson or Biden won't send the troops in.

The "Boots on the ground" are soldiers mate. In their eyes they are doing their job. It's what they do. It's what I did as a serviceman. Do as you are f***ing told. They probably hate it as much as some of our lads that were in Iraq. They are probably thinking "what the fuck am I doing fighting this f***ing war, that has fuck all to do with me.
Its the Politicos that need stopping.
Cut the head off the snake mate.
