    Cleansing the people? Thieves, rapists and murderers. Ethnic minorities that might rebel at some point…etc. In the era of social media it’s also easy to find potential political dissidents.

    For example. Stalin had a warm place in his hart for Ukranians. When Soviet Union attacked Finland in 1939. It was mostly Ukranians. Wave after wave towards Finnish machine gun emplacements. No real tactics. Those who retreated were shot.

    Win-win.

      Yea, as russian myself (that so in-love with current regime, that eventually fled into Serbia without any money), I can’t find another reason for that stupid war, if it not for clearing minorities and freeing some space in prisons. Welp, “you do you” as they say, I never ever will go back in that shithole called country for some reason.
