Ukraine "on the ground"

[TSIPP]

I’m pretty sure Russian forces have it handled, 120 million more Russians than Ukrainians, our kids can stay home.

More propaganda from H.H.

If we are dragged into every conflict in the world. The allies could easily absorb the Ukrainian civilians instead of seeing them slaughtered, not much percentage in warring against Russia and China. Some things we can not change and its wise to know the difference.

There’ll be nothing left of Ukraine if he has his way.

Support for the war from the clueless even now is dwindling fast. I guess virtue signaling sort of loses its lustre when face with a mushroom cloud.

But forage and agstarr will be the last to wake up again.

Crazy stuff cut and paste apologies

Barrons argues that Ukraine needs ammunition even more than it needs soldiers. It fires 90,000 155mm shells a month and sometimes 5000-6,000 shells a day but combined US and European production is less than 30,000 a month. “There is a mathematical mismatch,” he says. The US is tripling its output but “Europe has been too slow”.

Russia, which has been firing 20,000 shells a day and is thought to have used up 10 years’ worth of production in 12 months, has the same problem. In recent weeks they have reduced the numbers by 75 per cent.

Thats because this is just the warm up. Conventional weapons and warfare are all but obsolete. In a game of chess the pawns move first. When it escalates things could mover very quickly, Russian ICBM's cannot be defended against with western systems.

I'm not getting it.
Don't know how to reply as I can't comprehend what you are trying to say.
