Looking good for 400k KIA by Valentines Day.
And 12K APVs by Monday morning.Looking good for 400k KIA by Valentines Day.
He was going through the fact that Poland (like the USSR) moved in with Germany to dissect Czechoslovakia after the Munich conference.I saw were Putin said that Germany had no choice, they had to invade Poland!
Here is a reminder of one of the reasons he has to make Poland the bad guy. And also a reminder that the Soviets murdered thousands of Polish officer POWs at Katyn forest then tried to blame it on the Nazis. (Which is easy to believe.) Also an attempt to justify his invasion.
Small in numbers, but Russia seems to be pressing Syrian mercenaries into action in Ukraine. This article mentions around 1000. That is not significant in itself. What is significant is that the might Russian Army needs to bring in illiterates from Syria to catch bullets. Their manpower and morale issues must be staggering.

Will fall short.Looking good for 400k KIA by Valentines Day.

More from Krasnodar.
"Last night, Ukrainian drones attacked an oil refinery in the region of #Krasnodar ."
Honestly I don’t believe these charts anymore.
By giving away old military equipment that was otherwise destined for the scrapyard.Honestly I don’t believe these charts anymore.
Putin still in power. Russian economy not collapsed. US dollar losing leverage as the fiat currency for international trade. Ukraine draining our treasury and increasing our deficit. A protracted stalemate seems like it is in Russias favor.
I have skepticism on some of it, but it is part of my morning routine, and it is the information we have. As some have suggested, perhaps the troop count has shifted from kills to kills and casualties, and perhaps the tanks destroyed does not mean they were so destroyed that they could not be recovered and fixed. But I still believe in what they are doing, and you are not accounting for the dollars remaining right here paying our ourselves to drawn down our own stock, and paying own MIC and such. It’s not like $50b was just deposited in Ukraine’s coffers. And even if it was, it is the best bang for our Buck we have ever gotten achieving miltary objectives, or damaging our enemies’.Honestly I don’t believe these charts anymore.

Wouldn’t we be better served by catching up to Russia in terms of offensive weapons than financing Ukrainian oligarchs?I have skepticism on some of it, but it is part of my morning routine, and it is the information we have.

You think this has put a dent in R&D??? And if you frame the issue as financing oligarchs, there is really no reason in having a discussion.Wouldn’t we be better served by catching up to Russia in terms of offensive weapons than financing Ukrainian oligarchs?

Wait, what you've learned from this whole thing is that the US is woefully behind Russia in terms of military weaponry? Really??Wouldn’t we be better served by catching up to Russia in terms of offensive weapons than financing Ukrainian oligarchs?

Beat me to it. The Europeans are quickly realizing a return to power by Donald Trump means chaos and emboldened autocrats like Xi and Putin.If accurate I am surprised they were not doing it already since it is mainly NATO sending all the stuff.
