"Russian soldier abandoned by fleeing comrades on armored vehicle leaving him stranded in Donetsk" Either these guys were seriously spooked by something and were desperate to get the hell out of there...or they just didn't give a damn. I also couldn't help but notice at least a few of...

More construction workers getting sent to the trenches? God this is depressing.

I suppose this goes here? I don't know what to make of this. :oops: "A strange game. The only winning move is not to play." *

Oh, without a doubt. Current events have just shined a bigger light on this now and framed it in perspective.

That’s not enough. Russia wants Belarus reintegrated with Russia. EDIT: If Russia takes control of Belarus that allows it to exploit the potential Suwalki Gap utilizing its holdout in Kaliningrad. Poland could find a chunk of its own northeast territory cut off along with the Baltic States if...
