Now explain to me why the ratio in Ukraine is so low, especially considering the vast majority of engagements have been in urban areas.

Please do explain mate, I'm interested to be hear the reasons why.
The Ukrainian data in that table is from 2014 to 2019 so does not cover the most recent conflict or the any of the civilian casualties suffered.

“ The recent Ukrainian armed conflict, which started in March 2014, and in the aftermath of the 2014 Ukrainian revolution, has engaged Russia-backed anti-government separatist groups and Ukrainian Army, National Guard, and voluntary organizations. The conflict has all ingredients of a proxy and hybrid war, in which different parts claim superiority over the others with high impacts on civilian life. The United Nations (UN) reports over 13,000 deaths from April 2014 to February 2020. The number of civilian's deaths reported is 3,367 from April 2014 to July 2020 (civilian death rate = 26%). The reported number of military and voluntary forces deaths are conflicting (64–67).”
 
Listing what provoked an action isn't justifying it mate. It's explaining why it happened and how it could have all. been avoided.

Pro Putin - only answer that can be honest is to seperate pre 2022 and post.

In terms of policies for Russia - the state of Russia when he took over to what it became then he was very very good for Russia as a whole.

This entire thing now, no, it's one where there can be no winner at least in terms of the normal people's lives in Russia, Ukraine and the rest if the world. In short it's a utter f'ing disaster for pretty much everyone all round - especially so in spades for the average Ukranian who just wanted to life a normal life rather than be a chesspiece in a much bigger game (sounds a horrible thing to say that last part but yanno what I mean)
Dont feed the troll fellas, kind of obvious they're loosing now and he wasnt expecting that to happen, and its all come crashing down for him.
 
Absolutely no time or respect for any poster defending a man who, among many other atrocities, is trying his hardest to drive America into full-on fascism.

We (possibly not as individuals but as am general population) elected Trump and Johnson but there's no doubt in my mind Russian interference, financial greasing and propaganda did and probably continues to play a major role especially with regards to Brexit.

The Russian government actually assassinated someone on British soil and killed British citizens in the process and we did nothing. Why would Putin not feel absolutely able to do whatever he wanted in the face of such cowardice?

Russia is absolutely a terrorist state and I don't care how long it lasts, we need to back Ukraine absolutely and get any Russian influence out of our corridors of power and safeguard ourselves from digital and physical aggression.

Some interesting stuff from our man on this subject.


And on the political landscape.


There is a clear trend and lots of posts in lots of threads supporting Putin, Russia and with an anti-western narrative from @bluestevon Even though the below quote is something of a light hearted comment the thrust follows the trend of its posts. ?
