Putin doesn’t need to take and hold any territory in Ukraine to accomplish his goal. He simply needs to force the Ukrainian President and his political loyalists into exile. Once they’re tucked away in their French Chalets and Brighton Beach bungalows Vlad can hold a “vote” to elect his new government…..I believe Dominion has already secured the contract. 😉

Putin must be be stopped at the Western border but only by Europe. We have no dog in that fight and can not be drawn in. A Biden administration response would only get thousands of GIs killed killed or maimed. Let Europeans bear the brunt. It's their war not ours. You best be looking for a good dog for the fight as we will be in one whether we want to or not… Do you think Ukraine want's what they're getting now? Do you think the Russians will hesitate giving us a go if they feel emboldened? Wake up!

Rene - saw some video of RU mount training done in Georgia a few weeks back.
"Cover and concealment" were words/concepts they apparently hadn't learned.

My son and I were deconstructing it - now it may have been show by poorly trained neophytes but it looked like they had never been shot at before in their life.
I will say this, the longer it takes Russia to take Ukraine - the less scary they are. I follow some Ukrainians on Instagram. It seems like the Russian night fighting capability is well below ours.

Thats what was being said yesterday.
Ivan dont fight very well in the dark.
Even more telling is lack of massive airstrikes at night using guided munitions via gps.
Lotta capabilities we have and many others have the russians are holding out on or just dont have much off to use????
Kinda revealing in ways.
Every one of my 38 armed goons in my platoon had 7,s or 14, s with a peq 2 or 4 aiming device for night ops.
Half of our doctrine is doing night ops to exploit the enemies lack of themselves.
And that is just a regular ole light infantry platoon with every joe having night capability.
Ivan dont seem to have much down to individual soldier level.

Exactly Why would Putin "destroy" Ukraine?? He's there for the goodies.
