Stranded, lost Russian soldiers have no idea what's going on

[mainer]

They ask Ukrainian driver what the news is saying.

1. Good God in Butter is what I'm reading this AM on DU right?

That some of the Russian troops are begging for food, out of gas, lost, really don't
know why they are there, dying by the thousands, and surrendering to the Ukrainian
troops and or people?

[Boomerproud]

2. That proves only Putin wants this war.

How about a mass exodus from the Russian army guys. Save yourself.

4. Where will they go to save themselves?

I listened to Putin and I agree with the experts, he sounds extremely deranged, not with it mentally.

Maybe he and MF45 are suffering from syphilis of the brain?

[panader0]

6. They both caught it from Melanoma.

[Bluethroughu]

18. Wow, I think you nailed it.

Definately syphilis in the brain.

The Russian people need to reject their leadership.

This video shows the oligarchs don't care about anybody but themselves!

The Russian army should head back to Moscow and throw out the oligarchs and their supporters!

3. I'm not feeling sorry for Russian soldiers just yet.

[Happy Hoosier]

15. I can feel sorry for them individually

I can’t imagine many of them actually support this mess.

But that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be shot at.

[BlueIdaho]

23. I'll feel sorry for them

When they lay down their weapons, burn their tanks, and ask where the nearest hospital is so they can help heal the wounded.

5. Yep, pretty close to it.

Putin has badly miscalculated European, NATO and just about the whole world's reaction to this illegal invasion, and on top of that, him and his military advisors badly underestimated the Ukrainian Military and it's capabilities.

He also united the EU and NATO like no other time in history and shown the world the actual weakness of the Russian Army, which would not stand a chance against NATO, and his military advisors know this.

Just my opinion, but as Mother Russia's sons and daughters start coming home in body bags, internal opposition is going to get a lot worse than it is right now.

If I were Putin, I would keep my head on a swivel and be careful of what I'm eating or drinking.

7. Putin brought a mobile crematorium, so there may be no body bags.

8. I know, I meant that rhetorically,

when the sons and daughters fail to return home, then it's going to get a lot worse internally,

[gab13by13]

14. Yes, now would be the time for a coup,

even paranoid people like Putler have enemies.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

16. Just like in Tom Clancy's Red Storm Rising,

that would be the ultimate solution to have the Russian military remove him from power, along with those advisors that told him it would be a cakewalk and the US, NATO, the EU, and pretty much the whole world would do very little to help the Ukrainians.

They were wrong and deserve to be deposed and brought before the ICC on charges of crimes against humanity.

[Disaffected]

21. That's the "Please God" scenario

I'm hoping for.

[Botany]

9. And lots of the parents, family, and friends of the Russian KIAs, wounded, and or taken prisoner ..

... will be on the streets of Russian towns and cities protesting. Putin might very well be
thrown from power and end up like Nicolae Ceausescu.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

11. That would be the ultimate solution to his crimes against humanity,

the Russian people removing him from office, alive or dead, matters not to me as long as he's removed.

[honest.abe]

10. A bit like Battle of the Bulge.

Tanks stranded due to lack of fuel.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

12. The perfect comparison. nt

[VGNonly]

20. Russian tanks

The T14, T80, T90 have a maximum range of between 200-340 miles, depending on whether external fuel tanks are added. Full speed operations will reduce range.

13. K&R, Vidman was mentioning this too; RA supply lines are being attacked and are now running

... out of resources.

[mitch96]

17. Seems like a common problem with a blitzkrieg.. Patton also ran farther than his supply lines

During the breakout of Normandy. Stick your neck out to far and it might get chopped off..
This does not bode well with putins invasion. Along with loosing 300 elite Spetsnaz troops
in Kyviv.

19. Alert - russian hardware has large white Z painted on every side. no Z on this

"tank"

[maxsolomon]

24. Agreed. Very hard to believe any reports coming out of this war.

Ukraine will use propaganda as well, and I really can't blame them.

This could be staged; it could be real.

[lame54]

22. They're saying you lost. Go home.
