Sucks that they're essentially forced to go into battle, or risk prison and/or death back home if they choose avoid fighting in the war. |

I really don't get why people criticize Nazi officers so harshly for that excuse. If disobeying orders gets you shot, then there's not much you can really do, is there? It's a much better excuse than many of the ones people have today in much more free times. |

Some people just want to go to war, while others are forced into war. It's not like men in the Russian military have a choice in the matter.
I'm glad that military in America isn't mandatory. |

are they also forced to rape and torture the civilians? or is it just the few bad apples hired from prison doing that? |

Dude im not the greatest guy ever, but if you gas bunch of children because you'd rather not be punished, you are a monster. Also, if you are able to live normal life after such incident, something is wrong. |

I'm not disagreeing with you, but I can name quite a few peace activists, (much better people than I am), who have at one point either had a fond view of mass murder or praised mass murderers. Bertrand Russell for example, was jailed for peace activism and just before his jail time wrote an article criticizing WW1, but also saying wiping out lesser civilizations is not something that people should regret. That's interesting information to me because it tells me how easy it is, even for pretty decent people, to have a genocidal worldview. There's nothing factually wrong with calling Bertrand Russell a monster, It comes down to a value judgement I guess. |

15k seems low for what's going on over there.
If you ask Russia, they'll say the number is a lot higher.
We'll never really know, but it gives us something to talk about, so there's that. |

It seems that Prigozhin strong armed Putin into some consessions.
It's good that the muscovites felt some fear as tanks rolled in, makes it harder to support a war if you are aware that it might be your house that is going to be destroyed. |
