I mean the Soviet Union spent the better part of a decade accomplishing nothing in Afghanistan but still managed to annihilate much of the country. It's all well and good to cheer for Ukrainians doing well against Russia but you also have to deal with the probability of Ukraine being decimated by this war in a way they won't be able to recover from. This is not going to end up being a feel good David vs. Goliath story.
