As an employee of a neutral newspaper Washington Post, I would just like to loudly say that WE ARE PROFITING FROM THIS WAR, THAT IS WHY THIS WAR IS GOOD.

On a short-timeline view (which is exactly what we have now in this conflict) that “stalemate that just feeds people into the grinder that doesn’t achieve a military objective*” is exactly what we had at multiple points during the colonial period. Wars like Father Le Loutre's War also spilled over to non combatant citizens just like Russia’s Soldiers have targeted. For that matter, that’s been true of just about any period where one nation invaded another to claim them. The only real difference now is we have gotten exceptionally effective at killing people so the totals are far higher.
Crack a fucking history book. Justification of aggression and invasion against a sovereign nation is a new low.
*- keeping an invading force from progressing is an objective, just ask the North Vietnamese. But you probably think they should have surrendered too based on your logic.
Simply stunning
I can't believe everyone isn't recognizing the sacredness of these administrative borders from a country that no longer exists. Won't somebody think of the sovereignty? These borders were very convenient for the richest people in the west and they deserve every advantage in their efforts to rob the people of Russia.
