Someone said that SECOND once posted "I found out the only thing I was good at was killing people" ... or words to that effect.
SECOND's lesson from Vietnam wasn't that you shouldn't wage stupid wars, but that you should wage stupid wars better!!!. Which means killing more efficiently with fewer munitions
If that quote is true (and seriously, that level of self-honesty from SECOND is unheard-of) when the only tool in your personal toolkit is murder, then killing is solution to everything.

It seems to me that War was fought without objective
I have yet to hear the goals explained to me
if there was a War against Asian Barbary Pirates hijacking American ships taking them hostage, then it would have an objective
if there was a War to kill Hitler, blow up Hitler's base on the Moon and or remove the German Fascist Nazis from France stopping it from expanding to British shores and defeat Germany, that means it had an objective
if there was a Real war to fight a Communist North and establish a 38th parallel which divides a Democratic South Korean people from North that is still an objective
People going to their Deaths in Nam went there for no reason, less life was lost in new battle in Afghanistan but it was also a War without purpose...in a ways I agree with the Biden withdraw not the way it was done looked bad, once bin Laden was captured and killed from Pakistan, what was the reason for all that lost blood and treasure? Also What is Yemen for? What is the purpose to all those Civil Wars in Africa during the ColdWar?
I am also unsure as to what happened in Syria 2014–present ...to get rid of Assad when some of the other protestors and shooters were ISIS? Or is Assad now a 'good guy'?
I suppose one positive is the genocide of Yezidi was prevented.
Russia will probably have another Afghanistan in Ukraine, Russian men with bodies broken their minds damaged for nothing perhaps, refugees on the move again, meanwhile the mom at home suffers, global food prices and oil prices will suffer.

I can't say if that was a quote of his or not. Either it happened before I stopped drinking or I just missed it if it was after I sobered up.
It doesn't seem to be something he'd outright admit to, but I have gotten him to go off script when I get him on tilt so maybe.

Russian President Vladimir Putin paid tribute to Tsar Peter the Great on the 350th anniversary of his birth on Thursday, claiming that modern Russia is once again on a historic quest “to return and fortify” its lost lands. Temporarily erasing any doubt about the true motivation of his invasion of neighboring Ukraine, Putin told an audience of technology students in Moscow that the lot of re-conquering Russia’s former territories fell to their generation.
Russian state television pundits who asserted for months that the “special military operation” was never about occupying any of the Ukrainian territories have changed their tune in the blink of an eye, brushing aside the legend of the mythical Nazis in charge of Ukraine’s government, as well as complaints about “NATO enlargement”.
I wish Putin had said "Believe me" when revealing the new Truth about his Ukraine War. That way we'd know he really means it, this time, unlike previous times. This is final Truth, not some interim Truth before the final Truth.

If I was a European I would be concerned about how big a chunk of Europe Putin will conquer when I google 'how big was the empire of peter the great'. I might be concerned enough to send NATO into Ukraine. Since Putin sent the Russian Army into Ukraine, he opened the borders of Ukraine. If NATO does what Putin already did to Ukraine, it would only be fair.

“We need to make sure that NATO is able and prepared to respond effectively and calibrated to the threats it faces,” Romanian President Klaus Iohannis told reporters after Friday’s meeting. “The alliance needs to be able to defend every inch of its territory.” BY THE WAY, Romania is an inch of NATO territory.
If Iohannis was thinking clearer, he would tell NATO to make its move before Russia crosses an inch into Romania. A convenient place for NATO to practice its moves would be in Ukraine because Ukraine has asked for NATO to practice on Russians who wandered into Ukraine. The Russian soldiers would not agree but they tacitly gave permission for anybody who wants, including NATO, to kill Russians as long as they are on the wrong side of border, inside Ukraine.

You saying so doesn't prove anything. I've got far worse out of you archived.
I still know you're a murderer, Arthur.

Old Russian saying: "Truth is for weaklings with no imagination." Lying is truly freeing - you can say anything you want when you are unrestrained by facts and Truth. For instance, Claims made by the Multimedia Museum of History in Yaroslavl, Russia.
1. The Latin alphabet is Russian.
2. Christopher Columbus was a Russian.
3. Genghis Khan was a Russin.
Bonus: South America was discovered and colonized by the Russians.

Quote:And Putin's Prime Minister supported Putin, until he didn't:
Originally posted by SIGNYM:

He was Vladimir Putin’s first prime minister but Mikhail Kasyanov never in his worst nightmares imagined that his former boss would unleash a full-scale war on Ukraine.
Speaking to Agence France-Presse in a video interview, Kasyanov, Russia’s prime minister from 2000 to 2004, said he expected the war could last up to two years but he was convinced Russia could return to a democratic path.
The 64-year-old, who championed close ties with the West as prime minister, said that, like many other Russians, he did not believe in the weeks ahead of the war that it would actually happen.
Kasyanov only understood that Putin was not bluffing when he saw him summon the country’s top leadership for a theatrical meeting of the security council three days before the invasion on February 24.
“When I saw the meeting of Russia’s Security Council I realised, yes, there will be a war,” Kasyanov said.
He added that he felt that Putin was already not thinking properly.
“I just know these people and by looking at them I saw that Putin is already out of it. Not in a medical sense but in political terms,” he said.
“I knew a different Putin.”
After being sacked by Putin, Kasyanov joined Russia’s opposition and became one of the Kremlin’s most vocal critics.
He is now the leader of the opposition People’s Freedom party, or Parnas.
Kasyanov said Putin, a former KGB agent who turns 70 in October, has managed over the past 20 years to build a system based on impunity and fear.
“These are the achievements of a system that, with the encouragement of Putin as head of state, has started operating even in a more cynical, cruel manner than in the final stages of the Soviet Union,” he said.
“Essentially, this is a KGB system based on complete lawlessness. It is clear that they do not expect any punishment.”
Kasyanov said he had left Russia because of the war and was living in Europe but he declined to disclose his location out of concern for his safety. His close ally and fellow opposition politician Boris Nemtsov was gunned down near the Kremlin in 2015. Putin’s best-known critic Alexei Navalny, 46, was poisoned with a nerve agent in 2020 and is now in prison.
Kasyanov predicted the war could last for up to two years and said it is imperative that Ukraine win.
“If Ukraine falls, the Baltic states will be next,” he said.
The outcome of the war will also determine Russia’s future, he said.
Kasyanov said he “categorically” disagreed with French President Emmanuel Macron’s suggestion that Putin should not be humiliated.
He also rebuffed calls for Ukraine to cede territory to end the war.
“What has Putin done to deserve this?” he said. “This is an overly pragmatic position.
“I believe this is wrong and hope that the West won’t go down that path.”
Kasyanov believes Putin will eventually be replaced by a “quasi-successor” controlled by the security services. But a successor would not be able to control the system for long and eventually Russia will stage free and fair elections, the former prime minister said.
“I am certain that Russia will return to the path of building a democratic state,” he said.
He estimated it would take about a decade to conduct “de-Communisation” and “de-Putinisation” of the country.
“This will be difficult, especially after this criminal war.”
He said trust would have to be re-established with European countries, which he called Russia’s “natural partners”.
Critics have in the past accused the Russian opposition of being hopelessly divided but Kasyanov said he was confident things would now be different.
“I have no doubt that now, after the tragedy that we are all witnessing, the opposition will unite.”
Russians will face a huge task rebuilding their country, he said.
“Everything will have to be rebuilt anew. Essentially, an entire set of economic and social r
