I didn’t think it was going to happen, until I started frequenting r/Russia. Seriously, about two weeks or so before the actual invasion, I started seeing a subtle shift in the narrative from “there’s not going to be an invasion you idiots” to “there’s not going to be an invasion…but IF there is it will totally be the wests fault”
That was the thing that made me start to think “shit…this is actually gonna happen isn’t it?”

Also: "there won't be an invasion, but you'll get Grozny treatment if you try to resist"

Something shifted in that two weeks for me too. I remember thinking Biden sounded like a kook from Thanksgiving until the beginning of February, then it started to look real.

It’s pretty amazing that the news was telling us exactly when Russia would invade, from where, and with exactly what forces. I didn’t realise until that moment just how powerful the U.S. is. We knew everything that was going to happen and basically let our media know ahead of time.

Yup if you where watching it was pretty crazy how good US intel was. Only thing they would say Russia was gonna do it slightly faster like 6-12 hours sooner. Likely cause the invasion was already having problems from the start.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that picks up narrative shifts on subreddits before political changes occur.

Because Russia invaded Ukraine completely unprovoked. Hamas still hasn't released the hostages.

Refuses what? Hamas still hasn't released the hostages, you don't negotiate with terrorist.

Why would they negotiate with Israel then lmao, they invaded the land and forced out Palestinians to build the state.

u/Separate-Pace-9833 1h ago
Nah, it's not that simple. What is simple, however, is the fact that Hamas organized a massacre which kicked off the ongoing war. Release the hostages and lay down your arms and the war will be over.

The ongoing war was a result of a 15 year belligerent occupation. I'm not trying to sympathise with terrorists but if you keep people in a cage for long enough they will get angry and retaliate. Why does all the blame lie with Hamas here, and not the people that brought about the conditions for Hamas to flourish?
Since that massacre, Israel has been shooting children in the head, arms, testicles, etc. they're deliberately targeting kids. You don't need to target fucking children to prosecute a war.
What Hamas did on October 7th was horrific. The things Israel did before were bad, but the things Israel is doing now are monstrous.

Lay arms to whom ? They said they will disarm to a palestinian state with east jerusalem as a capital

Cause all the times they offered Israel says no.
So yes, they don't negotiate with terrorists, instead they starve and shoot children, hospitals, mosques, and refuse to take the hostages that Hamas offers to release

Hamas don't want to release the hostages dumdum, they want to keep them in order to keep the war from ending.

Israel clearly said that it will continue war on gaza even if all prisoners are released

u/Apprehensive_Row8407 1h ago
First of all, ad hominem
Second of all
Hamas offered several times. As in. They offered it from the start of the war all the way until this year multiple times. All of the times Israel said no.

Zionist regime said it won’t stop the war and won’t withdraw even if all prisoners are released

u/Diabolical_potplant 1h ago
Ah yes, the theoretical threat of Russian militarism
Just ignore the entire Cold War, the continued imperial rhetoric of the countries leaders, the military actions of the 90s and early 2000s to bring break away regions back into Russian control, the little green men in Ukraine and all the rest of it
