The Ukraine war thread

They come across as incredulous as to what happened or is happening. That or the plea to Putin has been staged for domestic consumption; it will play well throughout Russia but especially so in rural areas. As if they had no idea as to why “foreign” troops (note at no time do they say Ukrainian troops) invaded their territory.
I suspect it was staged. A propaganda tool right out of the old Soviet playbook. The People’s earnest appeal to the Leader.

President Putin is at a loss with his armies getting stomped in Kursk and in desperation, he summons the ghost of Jozef Stalin.
Stalin says: Why have you summoned me?
Putin: Help. The Nazis have returned to Kursk and my Aries are getting crushed! What can I do?
Stalin: Do what I did in 1943. Send the best Ukrainian troops to Kursk and ask the US for weapons.
