I don't even know what to say. Do you understand the cost and logistical challenges of such a troop movement? Is it lost on you that Russia already invaded Ukraine once in the last 10 years? The false flag attack has historical basis and is so obviously plausible that I'm convinced half of the commenters here are either astroturfing or are just trying to score cheap "don't trust the govt, man!" points. This is a serious issue, millions of lives hang in the balance here, and all the commenters here want to play armchair general. I'm in disbelief.

> Do you understand the cost and logistical challenges of such a troop movement? It's a fraction of Russian forces already close by, then there's another 2 million reserves just waiting around at home. Supply/movement costs are barely a rounding error and it's bizarre to hear otherwise as though they care about taxpayer waste? Spending the most on nothing is basically a political sport there. Then there's this: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/03/world/europe/putin-sanctions-proofing.html https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/03/world/europe/putin-sancti... Putin is in an excellent position to weather any western sanctions from stirring the pot, and we all know it. Germany, the de facto leader of the EU just threw away it's nuclear powerplants becoming ever more reliant on Russia for its vital energy needs for the next few decades. They know how strong a position they have and are going to cause trouble over the Ukraine NATO thing without fear, that's pretty much the extent of it. It's the usual 5 eyes nonsense where our media hypes it up for months and then nothing. You should try talking to some South Koreans or Taiwanese about this phenomenon, it will be their turn again next year. It's far too late in winter to be invading anyone.
