Ukraine "on the ground"

[chuckChuck]

I see the Putin admirers are at work this morning! LOL

There's a sucker born every minute!

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Why don't they break out?

If we accept their stated goal of demilitarization of Ukraine, then a war of attrition where the opponent keeps sending their military up against the defenders strong points, is appearing to be a very effective strategy. Destroying the military capabilities of Ukraine at a very small cost to the defenders compared to mobile warfare.
I think most of us who thought this conflict is, or ever was about territorial gains are being proven wrong.

Why don't they break out?

Russia has a nice little cauldron going in eastern ukraine and zelensky keeps sending in new meat and equipment. No need to hold big swaths of land and fight an army at the same time. Degrade the army first.

Everyone knows there are handful of towns in that area and if they fall, its a free ride to Kyiv.

[chuckChuck]

The russian military is ineffective and has failed to gain very much in over a year with very significant losses of soldiers and equipment. Much more than Ukraine.

Instead they just keep bombing infrastructure and civilians. And Putin will for ever be a war crimminal!

And the extremists admirers will side with the war crimminal!

[foragefarmer]

Russia somehow killed 250,000 Nato armed Ukrainian soldiers using their prison militia of 50,000 men.

Can you imagine going against the 700,000 troops they have on standby in russia and belarus and then aided with hypersonic barrages.

Putin has already won every angle of this war. Especially the economic one. He kicked off hyperinflation in the US, which led to higher interest rates and now sparking bank runs and a coming recession.

Wont be long before the US heads for the exits again.

Who is your creditable source for these numbers Jazz, Sara Conners or Verna Van Horne?

Numbers of casualties of both Russian and Ukrainian soldiers is unknown to anybody other than themselves.

As for Putin winning on all sides I guess the Russian soldiers getting slaughtered are nothing more than experimental rats to you and Putin.

Your hero Putin tried to take Kiev last February and ended up retreating after his three day wet dream went soft. Putin miscalculated the Ukrainian sprit and NATO's resolve.

Jazz the pleasure and cheerleading you've taken on since Putin's invasion of Ukraine in Feb 2022 and your deep repugnance for West is pathetic. Yet you sit in your basement enjoying all the benefits of running the West down at every opportunity. How vocal and brave would you be living under Putin's Commie roof?

Jazz we all know you've ODed on the Trump kool-aid so are your bags packed for your trip to New York on Tuesday , could be "STORMY weather? I hear Donnie's calling on all his little Trumpers for another so called picnic.

[foragefarmer]

Go for it Aggy!

Ukraine a well known HOTBED of girl trafficking's, hmmm. Maybe they were SAVED.

and how many Ukrainian children has Putin's female Joseph Goebbels taken to Russian?

Your pretty F uckin quiet on that one you Putin enabler!

chucks whole life is propaganda gobbling. he loves it, cant function with the truth.

Russia hasnt even started to fight yet. All of their equipment is still intact. 6000 tanks, 6000 nukes, air force, 700k recruits and hundreds of hypersonics and Poseidon loaded sub circling the globe just for fun. Sarmat in the silo just for back up. How about a nuclear tsunami over NY and DC.

Thinking russia is weak is just plain stupid and its CNN pablum just like covid. If Russia is so weak why doesnt the US run a carrier strike group into the Black Sea and end this.

Russia lost some 20,000 troops to take out 250,000 nato troops. Thats a pretty good trade off in any war.

Wagner has another 30,000 recruits coming in.

Thats interesting forage, do you think the US can fight a civil war and russia and china at the same time. While fighting off inflation, bank runs, a debt crisis and recession.

You should pick up a history book sometime. We all know how overextended empires end.

I guess more double down stupidity is in order.

I only care about Putin ending the WEF and Soros, Schwab, Gates and the davos marxists.

Enabling nobody, why would someone originally FROM E Ukraine be very horrified about the hellish loss of young men's lives? Maybe that is happening. And her take was our media is not accurate. She is afraid of provoking WW3 with crazy Putin and Alzheimer Biden. Her family still lives there.
Why are so many NOT afraid of theses two MORONS?
Now idiots in Poland sending fighter jets.

Rather my children/grandsons have a peaceful life.

Now idiots in Poland sending fighter jets.

Its almost 2,000 km from polish air bases to the front line. There are no airfields in Ukraine anymore.

So an f16 will have to fly all the way over ukraine, refuelling in the air on the way in, drop its payload, turn around and head back and need to refuel in the air again. All while being tracked and targeted by S500.

I doubt any pilot would sign up for that. Talk about fan fiction.

It took a million men to dislodge Saddam from Kuwait. Take a lot more than that to dislodge russia especially without US air superiority.

[sumdumguy]

Most of Europe has a lot to lose sitting next to Russia and China, two communist, aggressive empires. This may be a sign of things to come, sad to say. Glad so far our closest neighbour is just a sleepy old clogger, hope it stays that way.

reckon a guy on here claimed bakhmut had fallen weeks ago.

do wonder where he gets his info.

it probably will. but the joy of it falling was openly celebrated

[chuckChuck]

There is a good chance that in 1939 Jazz probably would have admired Hitler too and thought he wasn't all that bad. LOL

Anybody who supports Russia invading and taking over Ukraine is a traitor to the west.

Russia is building an alliance with China that threatensstability, democracy and international law.

Some of the right wing extremists want Russia stronger and China as an influential ally? Good grief!

One is nearly a dictatorship. The other is already a very powerful one.

You just need little inspiration to get you going to see things Putin's way.

All the greats featured in this one.
