(#5409) Russia's losses in Ukraine are unsustainable

      Russia has scraped the bottom of the barrel for infantrymen to do the front line dying and are now left with sending their average citizens into battle. The average Russian citizen who is not a criminal nor conscripted Ukrainian traitor is not likely to want to die for putin. I can feel the ground start to move a bit when it comes to the stability of the current Russian government. Not a movement formed out of noble or honorable principles but one of which the fear of dying is starting to show its face. However the Russian people get to the point where they say enough of this and create a backlash to putin and the kremlin is ok by the rest of us.
     We don't need a real Russian hero to step forward and reverse the death spiral track that Russia is on. We only need pressure from within the nation of Russia to build up enough steam to change the course of Russia's military ambitions. Stopping this putin/kremlin cabal from further activities in Ukraine will satisfy not only the unsettled Russians but as well all of Ukraine and those of us who support them. If Russia is not stopped from its campaign to annihilate the Ukrainian people through the annihilation of its own citizenry then nothing but devastation is plausible. As winter is starting to set in on the Ukrainian invaded battlefield the dark thoughts of the average Russian soldier must be building into plots and strategies to save their own skin instead of being thrown into a continuous killing field.
      The Russian economy is already shrinking and despite it war spending will eventually become even more restrictive. Between the western sanctions and little innovative opportunities for the Russian workers the daily life in Russia is not one of much pursuit of happiness. Fewer younger Russians exist in Russia now with nearly 323,000 dead so far and more to come that the hustle and bustle of an ordinary society is tempered with sorrow and a gaping void. As Russia loses by a thousand paper cuts the realization will soon set in that the folly of war for nothing more than greed is not be born by what's left of Russia's younger generation. How many more Russians will die in Ukraine before the rest of Russia says enough?
