I have spent a couple days trying to make sense of the logistic problems Russia has in Ukraine. I first world army should never be seeing any of that nonsense, and I was looking for reasons why.

What it looks like to me is that the money that has gone into so many people's pockets in Russia has come from a lot of places in the military, and in a lot of different ways. What is left now is a paper tiger that can only just barely get out of it's own way. All of those missiles/rockets/bombs that are littering Ukraine are not an accident. All of the rubber tire vehicles that get stuck, break down and run out of fuel are not an accident. The absence of CAS to cover ground forces is not an accident. The absence of hundreds/thousands of precision guided cruise missiles is not an accident. The absence of proficient first line ground troops is not an accident. This was done systematically by skimming at many levels and the forces are now quite literally hollowed out by the politicians and oligarchs. I would bet a lot of money at this point that even if Putin decides to fall back and concentrate on Donbas/Luhansk/Crimea, that moving all that equipment back to Russia's border will cost Russia even more than it cost them to get it into place spread across Ukraine, and it will be more costly in Russian lives lost in the process.

That equipment has all been stressed beyond it's maintenance requirements getting into position to be used. They have taken a [bleep] load of piss and vinegar out of the troops. They have lost a sizeable percentage of the equipment to combat, breakdown, fuel exhaustion and abandonment. The retreat to Donbas/Luhansk/Crimea will be much harder to accomplish of and by itself. The huge arms flow into Ukraine will just amplify the losses in the pull back.

I think there is an excellent chance that just getting the hell out of Ukraine without making the situation much worse might well tilt things far enough that the calculus of fighting a better armed more determined Ukraine for the foreseeable future makes Russia abandon any hope of defending Eastern Ukraine, much less annexing and keeping it.

Ukraine on the other hand will be able to make an unchallengeable argument to NATO that they have a military well and truly capable of adding hugely to NATOs capability, and deserving of entry into NATO.

Putin will very shortly be history.

What the Ukie’s have lost .. They’ve Lost forever..
Putin will have to Consolidate he’s not running the Board..
I’m of the mind that the Ukie’s aren’t getting the Volume Offensive Weapons needed to push Putin back..
Reason is Putin will challenge any Supply Delivery and we haven’t had any Clashes with NATO or Euro supply efforts..
If we do then all Bets are off..

It appears that right now, Ukraine could beat Russia.


The problem is, Russia still has a lot of cards to play. Draft more soldiers. Tactical nukes. Etc.


Ukraine, on the other hand, has all their cards on the table. No ace in the hole.


Who wins this war will come down to how bad Putin wants to win it.

I wouldn’t think based on this war, that the Russian military is a paper tiger. I think Russia’s biggest problem is getting their soldiers to get behind bombing and killing Ukranians. I mean wouldn’t this sort of be the same thing as sending our military into Canada and telling our soldiers and airmen to bomb and shell cities in Canada? There are a lot of Russians spread through Ukraine.
Posted By: JamesJr Re: Ukraine might just win - 03/26/22
The old Soviet Union would have won the war with Ukraine in a matter of a few days, because they would have sent wave after wave of soldiers, nonstop, until there were no more Ukrainians left. It would not matter if they lost 20 times more men than the enemy did, because life was cheap and unimportant to the Commies.

Now days, even though you still have some old Commies running things, they don't have the control over the people as they did during Stalin's time, and they can't sent wave after wave of men to their death. Also, I suspect that the Ukrainians have a lot more to fight for than do the Russians soldiers, so that plays a part in why the Russians haven't won yet. Russia still has the ability to win this war, but at what cost?

No, it won't. Putin cannot win in Ukraine now and he knows it. He cannot take any of his objectives so far, much less hold them against an insurgent action that will apparently go on forever. That's why he's trying out the sales pitch of pulling back to Donbas/Luhansk. He has no Chem/Bio/Nuke option available, because he knows that if he should try that it will bring the full force of NATO down on Russia and he for certain dies somewhere in that. Maybe he tries to back off, rebuild his military and in 10-15 years down the road try again. It takes a long time to put that military back together, and he has enough civil unrest already that the leash he is on won't extend that far.

They cannot keep trucks running. They cannot keep tanks running. They cannot keep fuelers running. They cannot put anywhere near the number of aircraft in the sky that they need to, much less unchallenged. Their bombs are not exploding, Their missiles do not hit their target, the missile warhead do not explode, Their tanks are basically target practice and instead of losing one or two they lose whole columns. They can't feed the troops, They can't equip the troops. They can't shelter the troops from the weather. This is system wide breakdown and not all that damned far from collapse. It takes a long time to train an individual just to be cannon fodder. It takes a lot longer to train them to repair and maintain the equipment needed to fight. All of that costs a LOT of money, and he just tanked the Russian economy with this failed war.

Right now, the Ukrainians have more tanks than when they were invaded. Tanks THEY know how to operate and maintain. Maybe not state of he art tanks, but tanks that can fight on at least an equal footing against the army they took them from.

That said, Russia has now floated the idea of a full scale offensive in Poland, the Baltic states and Kazakhstan as well for "de-nazification" according to the MP Savostyanov.

That changes the calculus for Ukraine quite a bit.

There is that, but Russia's most pressing problem is they have so poorly prepared for this that they do not have the logistic and people to support the troops and equipment to prosecute the war. They have demonstrated that in spades. When the US goes into battle we have 10% of the people doing the fighting and 90% of the troops in the logistical tail. Heavy equipment without adequate maintenance is not fighting, it's a stationary target.
Posted By: rem141r Re: Ukraine might just win - 03/26/22
logistics is arguably the most important part of any military. for every bullet fired theres a metric schit ton of work that goes on behind the scenes to get it there.

I suspect that most of that is right. The calculus of the speed with which thousands of troops can die today makes a hell of a difference though. Just a simple thing like Russia's inability to clear a path alongside roads the must travel on almost by itself makes it not worth the cost to try to use the road.

On a serious note, when officers on every level were skimming money intended for equipment, maintenance, and personnel, your logistics are going to be a cluster.

That kind of talk out of Russian mouths is worth about as much as Russian currency now. Russia cannot even get into Ukraine, much less through it to attack Poland. All they can do is bluster about Chem/Bio/Nukes and we have EFFECTIVE tools to shoot down a lot, maybe all of what they might try to use. And they have to worry about not enough getting through to do enough damage to prevent their own incineration.

That changes the calculus for Russia a lot.

Exactly, and I am pretty certain that is precisely why Ukraine turned into such a cluster fck for Russia. They stacked up 200,000 troops on the border and sent most of them into the country to fight (die).

Something sure isn't adding up. Ukraine is whipping Putins ass so hes thinking of taking on Poland.

Sorry it bothers you but let's not act like Russia has never resorted to hyperbole in the face of disappointment like they most certainly are experiencing in the Ukraine. A 3 day military op that's turned into 2 months. Thousands of casualties.


The bio lab attack narrative doesn't hold water, they're using the wrong troops the wrong way if that was their plan. Neither does timing or Trumps protection of them/Ukraine if he and Putin were set on taking out the NWO cabal.

Protecting 2 separatist regions doesn't hold water with constant offensive attempts elsewhere.

"De-nazification" isn't all that believable either. Are there nazi weirdos- yep but the Ukraine isn't a nazi state, neither is Poland, Kazakhstan or the Baltics.

And before you go on your rant, I actually served in the military you claim is in control. I am still talking with folks still in that military who are SMEs in Russian language, culture and OB. Believe what you want but at least be credible.

If you understand what's really going on, you don't need to read or hear anything.

Putin isn't at war with Ukraine, actually. He's drawing a line against the decadence of the west moving into Russia.

In other words, Putin doesn't want to have gay pride parades on the streets of Moscow and he doesn't want transvestite story time at the local Russian libraries.

Globohomo was attempting to stream into Russia via Ukraine.

Putin said "no".

America's attempt to establish a Portland, Oregon in Russia is having a very bad effect on America and Western Europe. Additionally, it has forced an alliance between Russia and China.

Think back a few years, The US chased the Taliban out in a month. The US destroyed the Iraqi military and govt in a spectacular display of combined forces capability in a matter of a few weeks.

Then the trouble began. We lost more troops and spent more billions after the initial victories than we did on winning the initial war.

Insurgencies favor the the occupied and the ukes seem to be pretty capable of a prolonged and bloody insurgency. National will is often the deciding factor. I wonder about the number of troops and rubles the russkies will be willing to expend on an opposed occupation.

A little knowledge of history is more valuable than depending on utube and msm pundits.

I think there are 5 different types of people in the "green movement". First you have the true believers that actually think the world is going to come to an end in the next decade, and they've been saying that now for 3-4 decades. Then you have the people who are using the green movement to enrich themselves, like the best con men out there. Next are the people who just jump on any cause because they're weak and need a cause to champion to feel better about themselves. Then you have the sheep who will push any agenda solely because the Democrat Party promotes it, whether it's stupid or not. Last, and possibly the most dangerous, are the people who are using climate change as a cover story to promote their Marxist wealth redistribution and population control tactics.

I think the danger is WHEN he said it, as opposed to after things stabilize, he did it during instability.

When the dust clears, and the Russians are 'defeated' they will have Donetzk, Luhansk and probably Kherson and it's port facilities....if you call that a win then we did win in the middle east eh?

Most definitely- I was talking about last time a German said America needed regime change - as example.

Putin should follow Biden's lead, cut and run tomorrow, and leave a few 100 billion worth of weapons behind. That, way, if there's every a need to go back in, it'll be 3 times harder.

I have very little doubt there are biolabs in Ukraine. For that matter BSL 4 labs are probably in most of countries with educated populations. We study all sorts of pathogens that require a BSL 4 lab to work on them. Crimean-Congo virus being just one of them. and just maybe one of the pathogens studied in one or more of Ukraine's bio labs since they might have a proprietary interest therein. There are no labs at higher BSL level than 4. That Ukraine may be studying BSL 4 pathogens and may have a few BSL 4 labs means nothing. Not like their neighbor who had a lot of labs dedicated to not just weaponizing pathogens, but also to manufacturing some of them like smallpox in mind boggling quantities, and have never offered anything other than a claim they got rid of it. Russia's credibility is a little more suspect after their claims they weren't going to invade Ukraine.

We have at least 4 BSL 4 labs in the US.

Insurgencies favor the the occupied and the ukes seem to be pretty capable of a prolonged and bloody insurgency. National will is often the deciding factor. I wonder about the number of troops and rubles the russkies will be willing to expend on an opposed occupation.

A little knowledge of history is more valuable than depending on utube and msm pundits.

On the bio lab issue, when you're a hammer, everything starts looking like a nail. People are trying so hard to microanalyze and propagandize what's going on, when they come across some novel information, they try to force it to fit into their narrative.

I believe they’re there, I don’t believe they invaded to take them out as part of a Q plan. Not like this.

Interesting articles attached above. I was an anti-armor platoon leader in South Korea 30 years ago and a rifle platoon leader in the 101st. Unless the Russians use chemical weapons and mopp up as they advance or deploy infantry support, those armor units, supply lines and artillery are going to be picked apart. Maybe not with the speed we could do it but now the Ukrainians are armed to the teeth with javelins. I was watching a video the other day and it looked like one half of the soldiers in a maneuver element had some type of anti armor weapon slung.

Russia simply did not have a required 3:1 advantage to even begin this attack, much less a 9:1 advantage to seize Kyiv.

Just wait till their small navy starts getting patrol boats with harpoon missiles. They are gonna give hell to all the resupply ships in the Black Sea.

I’m not commenting on the Ukrainian government as a whole, nor Biden. What I’m saying is that Ukraine appears to be pissed off, motivated, and up for a fight; and with us pumping in boatloads of weapons, the Russians can’t sustain a campaign unless they use NBC, which would be very stupid.

I have friends who were over there until the week before the invasion and they have been training the Ukrainians in small unit operations more akin to our fighting style. I suspect we have driven home the idea of small unit leadership at the NCO and junior officer level.
Putin wins or WWIII, he is the number 1 gas exporter and number 2 oil exporter. Just guarantee Ukraine stays neutral and out of NATO and end this. https://www.iea.org/reports/key-world-energy-statistics-2021/supply

If Trump was still in office, I bet a metric schit ton of fuel would be flowing through the Keystone pipeline and there would be many tankers of LNG heading to Europe right now. As opposed to Biden telling Europe they need more solar.

As of December ‘21, Europe was paying something like 585% more than the US for LNG. They started seeing prices shoot up in April last year.

That should have and could be happening without the Ukraine issue. The market was ripe for disruption.

Sounds like a profit opportunity that someone like Trump would have bounced on. Hell, before leaving office in one of his last trips to Europe, Trump specifically warned the European leaders about their dependence on Russian fuel. If he was still in office when the prices started to ramp up, it's logical to think he would he followed up that warning with a plan.

That equipment has all been stressed beyond it's maintenance requirements getting into position to be used. They have taken a [bleep] load of piss and vinegar out of the troops.

I think there is an excellent chance that just getting the hell out of Ukraine without making the situation much worse might well tilt things far enough that the calculus of fighting a better armed more determined Ukraine for the foreseeable future makes Russia abandon any hope of defending Eastern Ukraine, much less annexing and keeping it.

Ukraine on the other hand will be able to make an unchallengeable argument to NATO that they have a military well and truly capable of adding hugely to NATOs capability, and deserving of entry into NATO.

Putin will very shortly be history.

Some say that.

Many are bleating what you quoted me saying. The same sheep (not men) that line up for shots, boosters, and masks and openly argued for mandates of the same.

I’m saying, from my perspective Ukraine is worse. We as Americans are better served by having a strong Russia than a polyglot of random nation states with/without nukes. Point one, that’d be easier for China (our real enemy ) to gain ground, and secondly it’ll cost me the humble taxpayer ever MOrE FÜCKING money as the evil ones not only launder their money through it but provide “aid” and “infrastructure “

Not a fan of Russia or it’s leader here, but if I had one bullet and the chance to take out Putin or Zalensky, the gay Jewish comedian would be in hell while Putin rode a tiger shirtless through the taiga.

I'm not going along with anything.

Russia is the world's azzhole, right along with China.

I am happy to watch them bleed.

Especially since all the arguments of "corruption" Putin supporters use to justify invading could be used to justify invading the US, since our government is also full of corrupt scum.

I think we should be selling weapons, not giving them away, but payback for Korea and Vietnam is being served nice and cold.


But, in still waiting on one of the Putin lovers to articulate why they like/support someone who is a literal thug dictator.

It’s absolutely hilarious watching the liberals lose their empty minds over Ukraine. The left wants us to continue to police the world and to continue our nation building with the blood of our sons but for the last 50 years they’ve been screaming for us to stop interfering in the business of other countries.

The left doesn’t know what they want other than the fact that they want us weak and vulnerable.

It’s funny watching a cuckhold coward like Jeff0 yapping his obnoxious cock holster with his tough bravado but I don’t see him signing up to go kill him some Russians. It’s easier for those dipshits to send our sons to protect their Ukrainian corruption.

If it was possible I’d start a go fund me account to send every tough talking liberal that opened their mouth about what “we” should do in Ukraine a one way ticket. It’s time for them to protect what they value (money and power) instead of relying on the men to do their dirty work.

There’s no way Russia “wins” this thing. That ship has sailed. It’s a question of how they lose, and even that is out of their hands.

You can choose to get into a phone booth with a bobcat. But whether you get back out again, with all your pieces and parts, ain’t up to you.

They can’t. What they REALLY support is the notion of a brutal autocrat suppressing liberties that chap their asses. They are AGAINST liberty. And some of them want America to be a white ethno-State. They want America, to be like Russia. They can’t say that, so, here we are.

It’s the elephant in the room.

I also hope lots of Russians die for what they're doing. Ideally with weapons paid for by other European countries.

Quote
Ukraine's defence ministry says another Russian general, Lt Gen Yakov Rezantsev, was killed in a strike near the southern city of Kherson.

Rezantsev was the commander of Russia's 49th combined army.

A western official said he was the seventh general to die in Ukraine, and the second lieutenant general - the highest rank officer reportedly killed.

It is thought that low morale among Russian troops has forced senior officers closer to the front line.

Lt Gen Yakov Rezantsev was reportedly killed by a Ukrainian strike on the Chornobaivka airbase near the city of Kherson.

He was promoted to lieutenant general last year, and was commander of the 49th combined army of Russia's southern military district.

He is said to have taken part in Russia's military operation in Syria.

But, I also don't think the fact that the United States has lots of corrupt politicians means we, as a nation, should be invaded.


You idiot, they aren't going to invade us.... they will win the economic war.... we are so economically weak and they know it and are making moves... talk about simple minded .... good grief...

If 2/3rds of demotards leave I hope we get invaded tomorrow.


Ok, I concede that point.

Um, I was making the point that the justification the Q-tards are using to support Putin invading Ukraine would support doing the same to us here.

But, apparently that was too deep for you to figure out.

Legitimately, if you can't understand why the conflict cited wouldn't garner the same attention as the RU v UKR would in the States....

Real answer is that intellectually sophomoric individuals reflexively go with "Biden, Soros think A, so B must be good."

And Q-tard stuff.


That doesn't explain all the rabid Ukraine supporters, I can see older guys who grew up or served in the cold war era being opposed to Russia somewhat. My first enlistment was all big war training to fight the Russians. I see way more rabid pro Ukrainians posters on here than pro Russia regardless of Putin dick sucking accusations. Seems to me from way up here in the cheap seats that even trying to make an guess as to why the Russians invaded is enough to get Putin dick sucker thrown at you.

Posted By: UPhiker Re: Ukraine might just win - 03/27/22
Here's why I support Ukraine, besides my ancestry. Russia is not now a threat. Their population is only about 145 million, less than half the size of ours. The USSR when it collapsed had a population of 293 million people. If they conquer and assimilate Ukraine, that'll add around 43 million more. They already have patsies in Belarus and Kazakhstan. One of their "reasons" for invading Ukraine was a landbridge to Sevastopol, their naval base. In the future, they could say the same thing about Kaliningrad. For those who don't know, it is their main Baltic naval base and used to be part of Germany. To get there, they'd have to go through the Baltic states or Poland. That would almost cut off Romania and Bulgaria. Pretty soon, they have most of the old USSR landmass and WP back. Then, if they stay friendly with China, they are a threat, a big threat. It's sorta like beating up the bully before he gets a chance to recruit his gang. Right now, Russia is the #3 power in the world, well behind the US and China, but slightly ahead of Japan and well ahead of the UK or France. I'd like them to stay there and even be weakened. Those that think the US and Russia could ever be long term allies are mistaken. Russia has an entirely different mindset and don't want to be second fiddle to anyone. I think they're worried about China because this war exposed their weaknesses and showed that they weren't equal. If Ukrainians want weapons to kill more Russians and weaken Russia, I'm all for it.

Russia is working out trade deals with China & India as we speak... they are circumventing the the USD as the worlds reserve currency.... that is the end game... the East is sick of our unfair trade advantage and the risk of sanctions every time they don't do as told... we are economically weak and they know it.
They have the worlds majority of population and they want to increase their prosperity and they have billions of potential customers in their own countries

Absolutely fascinating and it's based on things I see and people I talk to NOT connected to MSM. Just saying - by all measurement - Russia has stepped on their crank and that makes me laugh.

I think it's the other way around. Russia lost their main market and have shown how militarily weak they are. China has them over a barrel and isn't using any lube. India has no other supplier. They are trying to be friendly with Russia while their main adversary is China. That won't end well. China will continue using the dollar as long as we are their major trading partner. China wants to win economically while Russia just uses brute force and is making it harder for China.

mike r




I'm a bit weird on this.

1. Do not believe the Q line of thought on labs
2. Don't really believe the NATO bit. Russia and Ukraine had a no nuke treaty in place from a while back. Agreed to existence and neutrality. Russia agreed to never invade too.
3. I think, do not know, that Putin saw a vacuum on the world stage for someone to be the BSD. So why not do a 'quick' military op, show off Russian superiority and strength and cement himself as the BSD on the world stage in a week. May as well go at the last place he got away with it when the same power structure was in place in the US.

Things didn't work out that way for him.

I'm really just a fascinated observer.

Not from me. It’s the guys coming right out and saying “I stand with Russia!” or wanting to help Putin ride shirtless on a tiger that luv them some Putin pud and will always own that.

I think the geopolitics of this are fascinating, and highly debateable in good faith, and seeing an underdog military kicking some dictator butt is never not awesome to behold. So there’s that.

Again in good faith, I submit to you that what you are describing as “rabid Ukraine supporters” are actually “rabid freedom supporters”. Is Ukraine perfect in that regard? I’m guessing not. But good lord... they aren’t RUSSIA! The people of Russia are not free. They don’t have freedom of speech, freedom to assemble, freedom to choose their government, and so on. This is what Putin wants to do to the people of Ukraine.

Ukraine wants to have those liberties. They are partway there, have moved a long ways in that direction, was are still coming our way. And clearly- if they’ve proven one thing here- they WANT to be free.

How can any American not support Ukraine in this? Honest question. What part of a person has withered away, or been forgotten, or corrupted by disinformation and propaganda and Facebook, to where this is even debatable?! That’s what gets me here. This one is SOOO EASY. I don’t know WTF happened to some folks here. They have CHANGED. I’m not sure if they understand this. It’s true. I’ve watched it happen.

That being said, I don’t support a no-fly, don’t want our troops on the ground there (they already are), don’t want WW3. But conspiracies aside, we didn’t start this. Putin did. We are in reactive and crises-management mode. So far, we don’t have a no-fly, boots on ground, or WW3. And I’m cautiously optimistic that if played right, we might get Putin’s head on a pike out of this, literally or figuratively, and I am beyond ok with that. That is a deeply evil human being. Again, that’s SOOO EASY. Does not require one to be “rabid”. It requires one to have basic American values.

Do you refute that we "own" zalensky and her minions? Not just the money laundering, which to my mind is bad enough, but that we installed them.


Nope.

If your scenario is true why hasn't China condemned Russia?

You don't have to "support Russia" to say the Uke's government getting gutted is a good thing for American Taxpayers.

The false re-framing of others' positions is all the rage. Also, intellectually lazy and insipid.


I I get that. I am not rooting specifically for a side. Since day 1 my interest and fascination has dealt with how poorly Russia has faired in logistics, combat and air superiority.

Absolutely fascinating and it's based on things I see and people I talk to NOT connected to MSM. Just saying - by all measurement - Russia has stepped on their crank and that makes me laugh. Do I think Ukraine is the good guy? Meh, no. Not really. Dealt with enough to know they're corrupt as hell too.

One of their "reasons" for invading Ukraine was a landbridge to Sevastopol, their naval base. In the future, they could say the same thing about Kaliningrad. For those who don't know, it is their main Baltic naval base and used to be part of Germany. To get there, they'd have to go through the Baltic states or Poland. That would almost cut off Romania and Bulgaria. Pretty soon, they have most of the old USSR landmass and WP back. Then, if they stay friendly with China, they are a threat, a big threat. It's sorta like beating up the bully before he gets a chance to recruit his gang. Right now, Russia is the #3 power in the world, well behind the US and China, but slightly ahead of Japan and well ahead of the UK or France. I'd like them to stay there and even be weakened. Those that think the US and Russia could ever be long term allies are mistaken. Russia has an entirely different mindset and don't want to be second fiddle to anyone. I think they're worried about China because this war exposed their weaknesses and showed that they weren't equal. If Ukrainians want weapons to kill more Russians and weaken Russia, I'm all for it.

The rt story didn't say Putin wants to recreate the Soviet Union. He did it was a tragedy that a bunch of Russians were stuck in countries that had been part of the Soviet Union. It concluded saying that Washington sources said Putin wasted to reform the ussr.

Real answer is that intellectually sophomoric individuals reflexively go with "Biden, Soros think A, so B must be good."

And Q-tard stuff.


That doesn't explain all the rabid Ukraine supporters, I can see older guys who grew up or served in the cold war era being opposed to Russia somewhat. My first enlistment was all big war training to fight the Russians. I see way more rabid pro Ukrainians posters on here than pro Russia regardless of Putin dick sucking accusations. Seems to me from way up here in the cheap seats that even trying to make an guess as to why the Russians invaded is enough to get Putin dick sucker thrown at you.


That is the biggest intellectual act the leftests perfected.

They arent bad. They just have a crooked deep state cabal puppet govt set up by Schwab, Soros, Zero and Bidet in 2014 and lyingly called a democracy buy their NWO cabal MSM puppets so the cabal traitorus sfum in the US govt would send tons of money to "help" the fledgling democracy and this provide billions in money laundered kick backs to the NWO cabal and be the Clinton Foundations biggest donor along with kickbacks by hiring Hunter and other traitors kids.

mike r




I'm a bit weird on this.

1. Do not believe the Q line of thought on labs
2. Don't really believe the NATO bit. Russia and Ukraine had a no nuke treaty in place from a while back. Agreed to existence and neutrality. Russia agreed to never invade too.
3. I think, do not know, that Putin saw a vacuum on the world stage for someone to be the BSD. So why not do a 'quick' military op, show off Russian superiority and strength and cement himself as the BSD on the world stage in a week. May as well go at the last place he got away with it when the same power structure was in place in the US.

Things didn't work out that way for him.

I'm really just a fascinated observer.


The elevated magnitude of support for this conflict implies a proportionally sizable confluence of interests. As in any complex situation with large stakes and numerous powerful stake holders, there's no single lever compelling participation. When things really get moving, like they have in the case of this latest chapter in the Russo-Ukraine War, is when lots of individual interests are similarly vectored. The best discussions on this forum have identified many of these interests and theories explaining how such a confluence might have come to be.

What I've found myself questioning most is how much these co-vectored interests serve the American people—the regular Joe's.

Seems that every time the USA goes nation building or installs a government that will bend to their will, there is a negative outcome. Every time. And every time it's about a resource or money corruption. Every time.

Obama and his team installed a malleable government in Ukraine in 2014. And here we are. Again.

And every time it costs American taxpayers $$$ or their sons and daughters lives. I sure hope none of the US soldiers watching Brandon eat pizza die due to bad decisions by the Brandon team.

I hope the Bolshevik cabal running our central banks keeps printing billions a month and dumping it into the stock market to keep my 401k up, even if its turning our semi worthless currency into more worthless currency until our financial system is broken and then they can starve us a few years until we submit to their wonderful economic reset where Schwabs says in his book we will own nothing and be happy.

Then Putin annexes The Crimea and then Georgia and now attempting to gain The Ukraine.

This IS the evidence that he wishes to recreate it incrementally.

Putin identifying the collapse of the Soviet Union as "the greatest geopolitical tragedy of the 20th century" because, as he describes in the same speech, “As for the Russian people, it became a genuine tragedy. Tens of millions of our fellow citizens and countrymen found themselves beyond the fringes of Russian territory." This is far from evidence that he wishes not recreate it.



Then Putin annexes The Crimea and then Georgia and now attempting to gain The Ukraine.

This IS the evidence that he wishes to recreate it incrementally.
Correct.

Relax. No world leaders take our dipchit president seriously. They all know he is just a senile idiot.


No, they know someone gave him those lines to read. They are paying a lot of attention. I mean, damn, the Russians are paranoid enough already.

If you want to liken Putin to Hitler, the one area where he is the same (and in line with 99% of the rest of human history) is that he sees Russia as a nation. That is to say Russians are a nation as are other races. As such, he would like the areas where the population is predominantly Russian to be part of the Russian nation state. But unlike Hitler, he makes no assertions that the Russians don’t have enough space. In fact, they have nothing but space and unlimited room to expand to the East. Russia’s European borders have been remarkably stable and shifted over a few hundred miles East or west since Peter the Great. There are not territorial ambitions in that direction.

This all a continuation of the Great Game played in the 19th century with the US now in the place of Britain. It is about controlling Eurasia.

There is no reason for us to be doing that crap. If we want to satisfy our imperial impulses, we should concentrate on South America and the Pacific.

Ukraine might win? Win what? A supply column sits dead in the water for two weeks and it was never attacked by ground or air forces. One Airplane on a strafing run would have ended that. The Fins would’ve hit the front and rear of the column in WW2 immobilizing the whole thing and then sat there for two weeks and picked off anything else that moved. If they can’t destroy a supply line they’re in trouble. Real trouble.

Pounding Mariupol into dust as a Putin approved strategy is just a bit more War Crimey than kneecapping a few traitors by front line units.

If I’m interpreting your conspiratorial word-salad correctly, we both enjoy watching Russians getting their asses kicked, and agree that since they are the invaders it’s fine if they never set foot on Russian soil again.

What exactly did you think that MEANS? Were you thinking there would be posh prison camps, and lifetime disability checks from Ukraine, so that was why they stayed there and never set foot on Russian soil again? crazy

What I thought it meant, was about what I saw in that video. Kill the invaders. The hell else are they supposed to do? And, as John said, that was soldiers on soldiers. Russia is indiscriminately bombing cities. Are you tossing out word-salads about how the Russians are committing war crimes on threads I just haven’t seen? Lol. Bet not. wink

Well boys it now appears that the Duma has passed a law allowing the assets of companies who left Russia, in protests of the Russian invasion of the Ukraine, to be Nationalized.

Same as the communist Bolsheviks did before. The more things change the more they stay the same and history repeats yet again.

This is an economic death knell for Russia. Sanctions can be revoked. Actions like these nationalizations of foreign assets kills an economy which leads to repudiation of debts soon anticipated to be seen.

Suppose there are Ukrainian strong points or weapons batteries located in these areas that the Russians need to neutralize? Of course, that doesn't fit the narrative, does it?

Easy to see how it can happen. The Ukrainians are pissed and rightly so.

But that kind of behavior isn't going to encourage any Russians into surrendering.

Ukraine, on the other hand, has all their cards on the table. No ace in the hole.


Who wins this war will come down to how bad Putin wants to win it.

No, it won't. Putin cannot win in Ukraine now and he knows it. He cannot take any of his objectives so far, much less hold them against an insurgent action that will apparently go on forever. That's why he's trying out the sales pitch of pulling back to Donbas/Luhansk. He has no Chem/Bio/Nuke option available, because he knows that if he should try that it will bring the full force of NATO down on Russia and he for certain dies somewhere in that. Maybe he tries to back off, rebuild his military and in 10-15 years down the road try again. It takes a long time to put that military back together, and he has enough civil unrest already that the leash he is on won't extend that far.

They cannot keep trucks running. They cannot keep tanks running. They cannot keep fuelers running. They cannot put anywhere near the number of aircraft in the sky that they need to, much less unchallenged. Their bombs are not exploding, Their missiles do not hit their target, the missile warhead do not explode, Their tanks are basically target practice and instead of losing one or two they lose whole columns. They can't feed the troops, They can't equip the troops. They can't shelter the troops from the weather. This is system wide breakdown and not all that damned far from collapse. It takes a long time to train an individual just to be cannon fodder. It takes a lot longer to train them to repair and maintain the equipment needed to fight. All of that costs a LOT of money, and he just tanked the Russian economy with this failed war.

Right now, the Ukrainians have more tanks than when they were invaded. Tanks THEY know how to operate and maintain. Maybe not state of he art tanks, but tanks that can fight on at least an equal footing against the army they took them from.
