I've always found the Russians a decent bunch when I've met them...

Can't label an entire country, despite what we're seeing today. We certainly have our share of idiots abroad.
You're correct - I don't think you can label an entirely country and as you mentioned we have and had our fair share of idiots over the years.

However, historically, you could argue that as a nation they have form for such behaviour: indiscriminate attacks of the population, rape, torture and mass killings.

If the hat fits and all that, plus this isn't one or two cases committed by bad eggs, but rather planned attacks or at least those not suppressed by those above.
 
Some of the stories and pictures from the now liberated places are horrifying (and that's putting it mildly)

A surviving rape victim said they never expected them to be so cruel. They thought they would've been spared.
They painted red crosses and warnings about women and children on their shelters only to be raped and killed when the fighting was over.

Shocking to see how fast humanity descends back to the lows of the second world war.
Equally distressing is that the war will probably go on for months in the east before the people there are relieved.

Same, been there a few times and worked with loads, there sound in general. Got loads of mates from Odessa also, sound as.
