That wasn’t my point at all. I just meant that it is sad that this shit is happening but that it is what was elected by the majority. I am absolutely not saying people should not protest. My “good luck” was not sarcastic or anything, I really meant it.

Late reply, I didn’t get a notification until now for some reason.

Ubuntu 6.04. It was really simple to get it up and running even back then.

Good luck… But I’m afraid this is what you voted for.

Sounds like a great place to live!

What he is trying to say is that “My presidency is at risk if pattern of war continues”

Thank you for making a serious and accurate reply to a pretty silly post. For real. Others may see it that actually do not understand what it’s all about.

Thanks. :)

Yes, you’re probably right.

Fair enough. I just rather pay some tax money to weapons that go to Ukraine than to fight in the next war myself against Russia. Because that is what is likely going to happen in Europe if Russia wins.

Gladly

Send them Gripen as well.

More like the whole world. Damn, this is getting really scary.

You have a good point here, didn’t even think about that at first. It’s of course always about the money…

Why are you saying this? Do you believe pro-ukranians are on Zelensky’s side rather than the Ukrainian people’s side?

True. To say that Russia is winning/Ukraine is losing is total bullshit, but with that said, it is still really unwise to underestimate Russia.

Jets can be used to shoot down missiles. They can also be used to win a war.

Send them jets already. Jas Gripen, come on Sweden.

Fair enough.

It was never my intention to come across as defensive towards the IDF. I simply wanted to point out why it doesn’t make sense to compare civilian casualties between the two conflicts. Me saying a war in Gaza would always result in a lot of civilian casualties didn’t mean Israel has done a good job. I’m very sure they could have had quite a lot lower casualties with better tactics, but it would probably still result in high civilian casualties. A war in an area like Gaza will always result in hell on earth.

Meanwhile Russia has every possibility to avoid cities, yet they are still bombing cities pretty much daily despite there being no military activity there. This is again not me defending the IDF. I’m just trying to keep the topic on topic.

“Came across”? Right. Then I could say bringing up an unrelated conflict, no matter how terrible, in a discussion about what Russia does comes across as a putinist move.

This thread is about Russia. I was not the one bringing Israel up.

But no, I don’t think that is a good thing. But it has nothing to do with Israel being “more evil” than Russia. Russia cares zero about civilians and would have killed at least as many had Ukraine been a mostly urban warzone with Russian air superiority. But Ukraine isn’t, so therefore less civilian deaths.
