or maybe would have planned this invasion.

I read that they really did send most of the soldiers in thinking it was training, with half ammo and gas so they wouldnt be suspicious even.

And like only the top brass knew what was going to happen? That is just totally insane to me lol

One of the ways US intel knew Russia was about to invade was the fact they knew they were shipping blood bags to the border.

Apparently blood bags are in short supply and are fairly perishable. Something you don't bring along for training.

I also heard Russia will activate conscripts (something that isn't legal in Russia) by holding referendums in combat zones within Ukraine. Once they vote to join Russia, then they are allowed to send conscripts to "Russian territory" when in reality, they're on the front lines of the war.

They already are activating conscripts. Some of the ones being arrested for protesting right now received conscription letters, according to today's news.

So yes once the fake vote ends they'll be sent to the Ukraine. It's going to be a disaster. You think the regular troops' morale is bad? Conscripts will desert in droves.

Russia also only has ONE base in country dedicated to training.

While not all 300k will be conscripted (reserves are being called up) there will be a log jam in the way of training. If they want to alleviate that, they can either send them to the front without training or wait for more bases to process the newbies.

Either option is not good.
