    Russians started the war with the childish notion that they can bomb ukranians all they want and that ukranians wont bomb them back.

    The sowed the wind, now they shall reap the whirlwind.

        I don’t know what they were expecting.

        They got too high on their own propaganda and copium supply

        They had planned for Ukraine to be taken in a matter of days. Take Kyiv, replace the government with their own puppet, and done. So much for that plan when they find themselves targetted by drones, a short-lived military coup, tank and infantry warfare against NATO gear, and the rest of this mess. Imploding Russia’s credibility as a military power.

        After Georgia and Crimea, probably not. A Yes Man advisor probably got asked about invasion scenarios and told Putin what he wanted to hear.
