Incidentally, the further you get away from the equator, and the colder it is, the smarter you have to be to survive. Take a look around... There's still some truth to that, right Yoopers? (Canada is an exception tho...😂)
For decades, Finland and Russia, who share a border, had zero problems with each other. You could transit through each country with ease. Finland's corrupt government decided to join NATO and against the will of the people. And now the border between them is a heavily militarized zone. Finland fucked up is a big way. IF something kicked off, Finland would be overrun by dinner and NATO couldn't care less. They just want to use it as a rally cry for war. NATO doesn't give 2 shits about Finland as a country and couldn't care less about its people being destroyed.
The Finns had incredible pressure put on them to join NATO, doing so has wrecked their economy and their society. I pray for them, that they will not only survive but thrive.
They would fight like hell if they believe it is justifiable. Maybe that is why Ukraine isn’t doing so well. They don’t want to fight Russia for the deep state and the cocaine addict.
SISU enters the chat... 😂😂😂
Yeah, but they have been soy laden for decades.
I know but it's a fun fantasy....
Good movie if you like watching Nazis get eviscerated...
The Fins were “no joke” back in the day.
Yep ... Vikings were no joke.

Seems like the Eskimo’s would be building starships by now out of whale bones and polar bear skins, I guess there’s a flyer in every box.
Well, they started to, but realized it was a waste of time 😁

Wait Russia is #2??!! But the democrats keep telling me Russias military is like bad and ancient and stupid and stuff!!
We really do have the dumbest democrats, don't we folks?
What made Finland so difficult to fight in WW2 no longer exists.
They are no longer an agricultural society, having turned towards industry after ww2.
Everyone had a gun and knew how to use it during ww2.
Today, it is a very different Finland.

The top two sure do have a pretty pathetic score card lately.
Finland IS NOT ukraine. I shall point you into the direction of the Winter War. the soviets might have won that one, but it was very costly...
Finland indeed is not Ukraine, Finland would have not survived even single day against Russian military might.
I agree with this. Every Independence Day my wife (Finnish) puts on Finnish winter war movies. The fight they put up was remarkable.
Manerhiem was an amazing leader. Using tiny resources and topography to decimate the Russian forces.
But they lost Karelia due to the following Continuation War when they sided with Germany (to get back the lands lost in the Winter War).
It’s a complicated situation that devious WEF politicians have leveraged to stir up emotions to get into UN etc. Not much logic going around.

It’s not justified, that’s the issue.
Don’t forget cross country ski’s.
