Ukraine is making massive headway against Russia right now. Putin's forces are crumbling all over the front line. So my question is this.

Should Ukraine keep hammering Russia even after they have regained all of their territory?

Because all Putin will do is lick his wounds and rebuild. (if his own people haven't taken him out that is)

I'm not saying stepping onto Russian soil, but simply continue to destroy Russia's military until they're so broken they will never recover quickly. If at all.

What do you think?

Here's a good joke on the subject:

Putin dies an predictably goes to hell. However, his whining annoys Satan who, after a few years, tells him to go back to Moscow and get some goddamn closure. Putin is suddenly back in a shiny modern Moscow, clean, orderly, everyone is happy. He goes to a bar and orders a vodka then asks the barman how things are going since the end of the Ukrainian war. The barman says that things are great, the country is once again a leading world power, their military is highly respected and the economy is the strongest it's ever been! Putin thinks that this is great and asks how much for the drink. The answer? Three hryvnia.
