Trying to remember the chant, hey hey, LBJ, how many kids did you kill today.

Really? Those are some serious stats, haven't seen them before. Totally believable, Russia's military has been shockingly inept on every level.

I don't understand what Putin views as his end game in all this. He's making NATO stronger and the EU larger and, at this rate, is liable to re-lose Crimea, too.

There's a good novel by Anthony Marra, A Constellation of Vital Phenomena, that deals with the brutality of the Russian occupation of Chechnya. And Russian troops were famous for the vast numbers of German women they raped at the end of WWII.

Fuck 'em.
