    Perhaps Im cynical but I feel like some people such as the Pope just use the war as a means to propel themselves to the spotlight.

    Probably a vacuum bomb or munitions depot but still a scary as fuck visual.

    It was in Fátima that on July 13, 1917, seers reported the Virgin Mary had told them that one day she would ask the pope, in concert with all the bishops of the world, to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart.

    “If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church,” the seers said Mary told them. “The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated.”

    I would be willing to bet that a large number of those have just abandoned their posts as well.

    Official wording as opposed to off the cuff. Bound to make them mad.

    It's not about what makes sense to normal sane people, it's about what a crazy, isolated religious egomaniac in Russia thinks makes sense.

    Yeah I am not the slightest bit religious so I'm just going by what experts are saying. This is something that has a lot of meaning to Russian orthodoxy apparently. It all seems crazy as fuck but a lot of religious crazy people are very influential in the world unfortunately. Seeing the potential through war in a holy war lens is necessary. See also Israel refusing to join sanctions on Russia and Trump pushing to move the embassy to Jerusalem. Christian dominionists believe that it's necessary for their end-of-days prophecy that Jesus' will return and defeat evil including catastrophe and wars. It's uh, NOT good.

    https://www.vox.com/2017/12/12/16761...p-evangelicals

    This is a movement in Christianity that’s as old as Christianity itself. You have this group of people looking around for signs of the end time, and in the 20th century when Israel was founded, this was seen as a major sign. This was electrifying for that community because the gathering of all the Jews in exile to the Holy Land is a prerequisite for all of these events unfolding. So for the subset of evangelicals in the 20th century, support for Israel became a really, really important political position.

    No way Russia casually loses this fight without chemical or nuclear weapons

    The borders have still obviously changed but I've never seen "Ukrainian counteroffensive" on any tactical map before. Things must be getting somewhat better
