Putin definitely deserves the Noble Peace Prize for his use of restraint in the Ukraine war. without his wisdom, Biden and the British would have had the entire world nuked already. Putin couldve ended the war long ago by wiping out Kiev, but he isnt going to because he doesnt want war or any more people dying.

The Nobel prize is a joke and not worth having, but thinking people around the world clearly recognize Putin's actions involving this very difficult and complex problem and respect him for his wisdom and restraint. The victors write the history books, but if the West are the victors in this thing it implies that humanoids will not be writing anything for a long long time.

What? I haven't read such nonsense for a while Nobel Peace Prize for Puting for his sestrain in war? Interesting logic, because if not Putin, this warwouldn't even happened.
Putin didin't wiped put Kyiv because he cares about people's lifes? Then wy he wiped out completely cities like Bakhmut, Avdiivka, Chasiv Yar and etc?

That's pretty absurd. Russia fought in places which were being defended by Ukrainians and stopped when the battle was won. They didn't do any old-school razing of any places after chasing out the Zionazis. Given that a stated (apparently truthful) reason for expending Russian blood and treasure was to save the Russian speaking populations from the ethnic cleansing and genocide being quite vocally implemented by the the Western populations of the state, it would not make any sense to do so and would be counter-productive for future operations.

Indeed, the main reason the Zionazis from the West (both Ukrainian and global) was that it was determined to be the most promising way of getting Russia to respond which has been a goal of the neocon controlled global West for a long time. It did eventually work, but it took longer than was hoped. Looks like one of the reasons why Putin was so slow to respond was that he knew that the Federation needed to get some ducks in a row (e.g., Oreshnik) to address anticipated contingencies.

I have developed a lot more respect for Putin and Russia more generally over these last 1000 days because they have been quite scrupulous in avoiding unnecessary loss of life. Even non-nazi Ukrainian troops/western mercs to a ridiculous degree in the early days, but those days are gone. Russia continues to adhere to basic rules of war even while facing an extremely dirty-fighting adversary. Putin remains laudably conscious of loss of life of his own troops, and to civilian populations of all flavors. That continues to be the results of my daily read of events.
