I realize that Russia’s equipment FAR exceeds that of Ukraine, but ANY military would have an issue fighting 2 million DETERMINED guerilla fighters (we had plenty of trouble, as did Russia, with only THOUSANDS, in Afghanistan. Tanks and planes and armored vehicles are nice, but you can’t LIVE in them. Gotta step outside at some point.


I'm just saying that if Russia wanted to they could Level Ukraine quickly. As they could have Afghanistan. As we could have Afghanistan. As we could have Iraq. As we could have Vietnam. I know this gets deep. WE have rules of engagement. We have political leaders that say what we will or will not do. We have morals. I hope it never comes to this I was just saying militarily without consequence ukraine would have no chance Unfortunately. Neither would the previous mentioned conflicts adversaries
