@ozgirl512 [quote]don't forget, the average Russian has no access to anything but government news ... Once they know ...[/quote]
Only in the last few weeks at most, but don't forget Russia isn't China or North Korea (yet?), Russians could access western media just as easily as they could access their own, before this war, and even while forces were being amassed near the UA border, and on the first days/weeks of invasion. Heck, even now a lot of them use VPNs to circumvent regional restrictions, the information definitely get to there. Putin has been consistently re-elected for over 20 years, he didn't get installed yesterday. They know who he is, what he did, how he treats the opposition, and the great majority of people still support that.

I don't think this is the issue here, rather, I think that assuming the Russian people would cheer at the removal of Putin is the very same identical mistake (with parts reversed of course) that the Russians made when assuming the Ukrainians would've welcomed them with open arms after removing Zelenskyy.

@Elessar what you say is true, perhaps i should have added their belief system, in that i mean who they choose to believe

@sunsporter1649 Phased array is a method of electronically steering a beam without a rotating dish. Has nothing to do with whether or not it can see over the horizon.

So, Einstein, where do those OTH coords come from?

Plus, you just finished claiming

@sunsporter1649 You think the Russian Army was beaten back from Kiev with blankets and MREs? You must be misinformed by the misinformed!

@Diotrephes I have never used the word "cockamamy" before in my life. But you have spouted cockamamy theories that would win awards if they gave them out for most ridiculous.
