    I’ll give a serious response to the first half of your comment though: you asked where the “3-day special military operation” idea came from, and I gave some reasonable answers.

    While indeed Putin himself was not recorded saying these words specifically, it is obvious that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was anticipated to be quick and easy. Three years later and that’s clearly proven laughably false.

      I understand that but do you not think it’s weird that almost all at once a while back every lib on earth almost in unison decided it was a 3 day special military operation gone wrong despite no one in the Russian government saying anything of the sort as far as I can tell.

        The libs will not only eternally repeat every media spin against designated US adversaries, they will make that claim the central pillar of their world view and defend it as if their life depends on it.
