  • They've been brainwashed for decades.

    My girlfriend's grandfather who came from Soviet Union and lived here in Lithuania for 50 years still doesn't speak a word Lithuanian and he hates Ukrainians with all of his heart. "They're not people" he said.

    My girlfriends uncle, who seems like a decent guy, well off and everything, even he got into a discussion that Crimea and whole Ukraine should be a part of Russia.

    These are people who've been living in a free country for many decades but been consuming Russian media so one can just wonder how brainwashed are people inside Russia.

    Brainwashed yes, but to me that alone doesn't explain the level of cruelty. There are irredentist conflicts everywhere, but few of them involve cluster ammunition intentionally aimed at children.
