I wonder what their plan is. The nation states would be dissolved like half an hour into the war.
The elite need a professional army that protects them and force the population to starve to death.
Conscripts are a liability. You need the type of person that like violence and self selects for it.
This pretending there would be some nice and coozy gentleman's war is lunacy.
- fifilura 2y agoUkraine did not dissolve. In Northen Europe we have seen enough the last couple of years in Izium, Bucha, Kherson, Mariupol to understand that fighting back is preferable to murder, rape and every war crime in the book. And we prefer a stable democracy before living as a Muscovite vassal state with ruling based on power corruption and lies.
- rightbyte 2y agoI don't see the relevance of that war for the scenario. Also, the concept of "fighting back" is silly. Infighting would be the only fighting. There would be no military manouvers and glorious tank battles and nice HD videos of cool ambushes.
- fifilura 2y agoCan you elaborate, I did not understand anything about what you are referring to in your comment. Isn't fighting back what is happening now in Ukraine? Is that silly you mean? And yeah the military manouevers I guess are a bit different than the text book, particularly with the wide use of drones. But they do need people (including conscripts) to fight back.
- egorfine 2y ago> Ukraine did not dissolve Barely. And the country is absolutely drowning in rampant corruption at levels never seen before even in dark ages after the collapse of the USSR. I don't think Ukrainian state will emerge from this war unchanged and unchallenged. Source: am Ukrainian.
