I mean it's what the whole conflict is about.So

Apologies marra,
It’s a fast moving thread and I was just agreeing with @Cow that there has to be better ways of dealing with this than jumping in with all guns blazing.

Agree no idea why that post is above like but it can stay have a look at a map

The Canal was captured by the Russians on the first day of the invasion and the water started flowing again on Saturday. There's more to this than NATO.

People like her are best ignored. They say controversial nonsense to further their aspirations of getting a 15 second slot on GB News. Drown them out with silence.

Yes, that totally justifies shelling cities hundreds of miles away. FFS.

I think that’s exactly what Starmer is on about, people trying to justify Putins actions.

Apparently any Russian soldiers who refused to take part in the invasion were shot by their commanders…I think it’s fair to have sympathy with the ones who don’t want to take part in this fight but have no choice.

Hmmm I'd love to see a source on this. That story reeks of wartime propaganda mind. Send them to prison sure, but shooting them? Surely we'd of seen families take to social media and actual names would be broadcast. If it is true and they had names of the shot soldiers it'd be a fantastic way to show how mad Putin is etc.

I agree with the sentiment though. None of the soldiers want to be there and that's why theyre seemingly surrendering/giving up so easily (outside of the elite squads who will fight to the death of course)

Why not?

They’d be sitting ducks. If true it just shows the idiocy of those running the Russian army

No one's forcing them to join.

No one’s forcing who to join?

A good thing to see, feel sorry for the Russians but they will realise why this is happening the more their lives are disrupted the more they will turn against putin.

Yes I know some/a fair few will support him but if they know the reason why and how it can be stopped.

Any of the countries that joined Nato.

Can't imagine the Russian general public tolerating this for long

Oh well let’s just scrap it then and we’ll all just fend for ourselves

I think it's perfect. More disputation to their lives, the more people go hungry/ can't afford what they need, the more people we'll see on the streets night after night.

Love how what looks like an older lady who still uses actual money gets through while all the younger ones are left stuck

My point is that saying this is somehow about supplying water to an illegally annexed territory is silly as invading an entire country has no reasonable relationship thereto. I don’t think that’s too hard to parse.
