If we are serious about UA regaining all territory, they must be allowed to expand the war into Russia. It’s the only way a state can be reached where “return to the status quo ante” is a gain for both sides.
- Sanctions do provide some leverage too.
  
  Mostly just hurts the Russian people, Putin doesn't give a shit.
BOMB ST PETERSBURG AND MOSCOW.

OR RISK STARVING CUBA. THEY have not received any grain from ruzzia this year and are LITERALLY STOPPING BREAD PRODUCTION (each registered Cuban gets one bread roll a day: Not For March 2024!!)
- Are you alright? The problem with Putin and Russian army is that they're committing war crimes, and you call for war crimes from a "civilized" side as well?
  
  Yes, do it now or pay high cost later. Many Europeans will need to go into active service if this doesn't stop soon. That's not good.

  They are going to starve then, because the impotent old men who 'lead' Western countries are too afraid of Russia to do much to discomfort them.
  
  You can't starve ruzzia...
  
  HOWEVER RUZZIA STOPPED EXPORTING OIL!!!!!!!!!!
Oof that's not a great idea. Protecting sovereignty is a hard enough sell internationally. Selling an invasion isn't something the international community is really showing an interest in right now.
- They just mean weapons should be used to strike targets in Russia, not an invasion.
  
  I support striking Russian military targets. I don't support a ground invasion. So if what your saying is true I agree.
  
  Ukraine is already doing that. Though in a small scale.
  
  The issue is escalating where Russia feels the need to use nukes. That is a no win for everyone.
- Exactly. I think long-range strikes on military infrastructure is A-OK but actually expanding the frontline into russia would be a gigantic move, with potentially unpredictable results.
  
  Now that we're solidly on the same page, I wanted to reply to:
  
  Selling an invasion isn’t something the international community is really showing an interest in right now.
  
  Unless you consider everything that Israel is doing. The international community is apparently perfectly fine with that kind of invasion, being complacent (at best) while thousands of innocent people are killed. Israel can at least offer the disputed claim that Oct. 7 caught them off guard and that hamas must be eliminated (I agree with the latter... fuck hamas), but russia has no ground to stand on for justifying their current attempted genocide. There's obviously some shady shit happening behind the scenes.
  
  Russia does not officially recognize Ukraine. How often do people like you have to hear that? To understand that it means that Russia wants to kill ALL Ukrainians and erase them from the history books. Why do you think Putin and the Russians don't want to call it a war? You can only wage war against a country that you recognize. So Hamas + supporting Russia + Palestine killing Israelis + Palestine going hand in hand with Hamas is ok? Disgusting and so rotten inside.
