The shortest war in world history was the Anglo-Zanzibar War of 1896 between Great Britain and the African island Sultanate of Zanzibar. It lasted about 40 minutes.
The war (excuse me, special military operation) to liberate the Peoples Republic of Belgorod has already surpassed that benchmark and is likely to continue for …. well, at least till tomorrow.
The world’s 202nd country probably won’t last as long as the Free State of Jones. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Russian Volunteer Corps and the Free Legion of Russia beat a hasty retreat back into Ukraine in time for breakfast.
So while the Peoples Republic is still a thing — and Twitter runs amok with sarcasm — let’s celebrate it.
The UK has already offered two Challenger tanks.
This is technically not an attack inside Russia in violation of American wishes. It is a war to drive the Russian occupiers from the Peoples Republic of Belgorod.
I wouldn’t mess with the dude with the beard.
Naturally, there are T-shirts. I’m waiting for the official coffee mug.
And every special military operation needs a corresponding marketing campaign.
The Peoples Republic of Belgorod does need a national anthem. Just sayin’.
Russia should be willing to cede the Belgorod Oblast in the name of peace.
Moscow is under attack! Surrender Putin!
Why does NATO continue to deny membership to the Peoples Republic?
Tankies are reaching new levels of histrionics.
Don’t forget the F-16s and the ATACMS.
