Your under the assumption that Russians support the war because of Putin, when in reality they understand that this is a war of necessity
Moralists always ignore: Somalia, yemen, iraq, libya, serbia, afghanistan, vietnam, syria, bahrain etc
West-ukranians are free to fight to their best efforts, just as Russia is, just as US/allies was in every of the above examples, stop with the fake tears when West/Us have been aggressors in most events of the last 50 years.. It is a battle of wills, resources and politics.Infantilization and propaganda won't mean shit in the end either way, it never has, it never will.
No tears here. My country did not allow a fascist dictator. What happened to Russians after WW2? Allowing despots to rule above decree, it is weak and embarrassing.
I only stand to rubbish the justifications for Putin's war.
Denazification? Equally as many Nazi's in Russia. Demilitarisation? Ukraine is now the most militarised region on the planet.
Protection of Russian speakers? So where is next to be invaded, New York city?
Halting NATO's advances? NATO just accepted 2 new members because of the invasion. Not to mention the free testing range for NATO weapons.
Just call this what it is, a landgrab. An illegal invasion. An indiscriminate attack on Ukrainians, for little less than wishing to exist.
A maniac who thinks 40 million Ukrainians are expendable to improve the popularity of his own domestic regime and Russia's sphere of influence.
100% the US has been aggressors in a lot of conflicts. Those are equally as pathetic. The peacekeeping in Bosnia was warranted in my opinion, to avoid a genocide.
That gave Tony Blair and Bush a taste of international interventionism. Both are war criminals by anybody's measure, apart from maybe Putin himself.
NATO/UN ought to have got involved in Rwanda.
Removing the Taliban was warranted but an overall failure.
The US funding Saddam against the Iranians and then fighting two wars to remove him, was ridiculous.
That being said, this false narrative of Putin's war being justified simply does not wash. It should not be condemned not apologised for or justified through false narratives.
