Comments by "Emanon" (@Emanon...) on "Roman Legions vs Russian Army - Logistics, Training, and Corruption DOCUMENTARY" video.
You're absoutely right about "the human element" with regards to the invasion. I (like many others) sure as hell didn't expect Russia to invade, based on a simple cost/benefit analysis of everything short of an absolute perfect outcome for Russia in Ukraine. It would simply not make sense for "a rational actor" to attack Ukraine. Which is frightening when you suddenly realise that nuclear armed Russia is no longer to be considered "a rational actor". But like we didn't factor in all the elements in the decision, Putin and the regime didn't account for the ineffectiveness, low morale and poor state of their army. And they definitely didn't account for the fierce Ukrainian resistance.
