    Whoa… maybe not brightest for this, but i hadn’t even considered the Afghan war comparisons. Its incredible how so much fewer troops perished then, and we still look at the war as critically destabilizing the USSR.

    Heres hoping for much worse of the same this time.

      Yes, it’s also sad. Back than Russian mothers who lost sons in the war were able to organize and push back. These days they can’t even wave a blank flag.
