They are so secretive that they will conceal casualties?

Most RUSSIANs thought they were winning in Afghanistan. They couldn't understand all the body bags & funerals.

Don't get me wrong, but would you like giving the terrorists a reason to celebrate, when all they hear is "Oh yeah, no soldiers died..."

Oh I do, the whole VDV (Airborne) portion of the Russian Army died in that war except for like 4 people.

Though I'm just saying, in this current war where these terrorists use one mans bombing/killing as a martyr why should we give them any reason to celebrate?

Yeah because they are looking for the political victory to take attention away from economic problems at home.

Well you gotta think from the Russians shoes, back during the Soviet Union, they supported NK more than China did. So I'm pretty sure Putin is just trying to be like "Hey we go back long ways, can you cut the shit?"

I might be wrong, but that's just how I can see how they are logically trying to get NK to stop their rabid dog behavior that's going to be met with extreme prejudiced.

Austin Hocutt - it was even that way after Vietnam except Vietnam went it's own direction kinda pissing off the both China and Russia which is probably the basis for our moderately good relationship with the government of Vietnam.
