I don't think Putin is crazy as has been suggested, I think he is a nationalist with the idea that Ukraine is a part of Russia, and he has been building up Russia's military strength step by step to the point he is certain they can take it, which also has been done step by step for many years now with this as the climax. I always thought Russia would win this and I still do, I was in denial and thought it could happen with minimal bloodshed in the way it happened with Crimea, now bloodshed is certainly bloody enough but if Ukrainians get sacked in the East and surrender, and Kiev surrenders as well maybe it won't reach the bloodiest level still if you will - for the record I still think it is _wrong_ 100% - just from a nationalist Russian perspective, doesn't it all makes sense even? They can take loosing the Baltic states, they don't really care about Central Asia, with the exception of Gruzia perhaps but they can take it as well, but they can NOT take loosing Belarus and Ukraine, and that's what we are seeing now? -- underground experts united https://dataswamp.org/~incal
