    3 hour tour is an old English idiom, I can understand if it’s unfamiliar to you.

      You put it in quotes and called it a special military op instead of a tour, so it was a little bit obfuscated

      Edit: not that you meant to, of course, but it is what it is

      As an aside, I think Putin was probably right, but under the condition that he carpet bombs multiple major cities from the first available moment. The war is brutal, but Russia has not been carpet-bombing for a litany of reasons (and it is good that they aren’t)

      Lmao so now you’re claiming Putin was using some old English idiom in a private conversation with a Portuguese politician? Then said politician quoted Putin as saying a different phrase?

      Truly wonderful, the mind of a liberal is.
