Why didn’t Putin wait till next year to invade? What’s the rush?
Lines in donbass were frozen for years.
Economy could have been much stronger and COVID most likely would be gone by then. Russia could prop up Chinese trade in advance too.
And they might even have had some T-14s in service which are (so they say) are protected against NLAW’s and Javelins.
For me this war and its timing makes no sense.
Does Putin know something we don’t or he is just an idiot?
That's actually all fake, you morons.
that would just be an extra year for the US and Britain to arm and train Ukraine
Got a military friend who worked in the pentagon and shit for the Air Force. That’s the big question he gets from his old military contacts when they talk about Ukraine. Why the fuck right now? What was so special to make Putin want to choose this moment to strike and now 6 months down the line?
Either Putin is an idiot that has been bungling his was through the years of KGB service and 20 years of running the show and is literally big dumb dumb return to monke OR the decision to act was deliberate and thought out. I refuse to believe he’s this “emotional tyrant” that MSM has been calling him.

There was a 60k buildup of Ukrainian forces that were probably gonna try to decisively defeat separatists this year. That's what the bulk of the entrenched army that the Russians are encircling now is
If he waited till Ukraine actually attacked he’s have had a lot better justification
Maybe he’s really dying of brain tumors
America is experiencing hyper-inflation.
How many jews have died in this "war"?
Ukraine was massacring Russian ethnicity at the east in a ever increasing rate, even those outside the new republics. They were planning a big offensive this year, probably they would even use bio weapons, that would grant access to NATO (or they thought it would), if Putin didn't act now it would be too late.
Because nazis were about to have biological attack diseases ready. Nato was already delivering nuculear chemical weapon from tsernobyl and start the war!!!!! This is special defensive military operation!

Cockholes planned an escalation in March. Now they'll pay for shelling civilians for eight years. And for their other sins.
>Does Putin know something we don’t or he is just an idiot?
Never attribute to malice, what can easily be explained by stupidity.
best guess is russian economy was doing even worse than expected and putin and his government werent able to hide it for much longer
according to an indian maj general, ukraine was selling fissile nuke material. so i guess they did not want nuke proliferation or a dirty bomb.
Worse compared to whom?
Stupid, you didn't outline any advantages to waiting another year. It's better to invade sooner than later as Biden is in office and won't do shit.
Ukraine had built a dam and cut off Crimea's water supply.
He has cancer and it' came back fierce after being in remission. About a year ago.
