Sending poorly trained and equipped conscripts to fight seasoned will equipped troops who are motivated. The Orks bodies will be stacked like cod wood.

500,000 conscripts will quickly die or desert. They might even march on Moscow. But this isn’t 1945 and mere numbers can’t win this war.

In 1945 Moscow was backstopped by America. Now they’re on their own and they’re screwed.

How does that compare with US troop strength in Vietnam around 1968?

I thought that Putin was supposed to be dead soon? No?

I don’t trust anything I hear about this war, from any side.

This war, for Russia, is going more like the USSR-Finnish war. Maybe even like the Soviet intervention in China in the 1930’s. Not to mention Afghanistan in the 80’s.

Yep. It’s like the vax, and so many other things. Everybody lies, all the time.
And now a word from George Carlin.

The last batch of 300,000 they rounded up were all given vodka and were drunk on their ass.

What are they going to do with this next bunch?

There must be an ocean of vodka in Russia.

They went through the original forces.

Seems they’ve gone through too many of the 300k they
called up months ago.

Now there’s talk of building toward 500k. Exactly how many
dead Russians is Putin going to be allowed to send to their
death? No one objects?

In ten years we lost about 68,000 troops in Vietnam.
It looks like Russia may have lost exponentially more
in just 10 months.

I don’t know the official counts. Not sure anyone
does, but it sure doesn’t look good for the offensive
forces.

Seems as if they didn't so much as call them up but dragged them off the streets. Press ganged them.

The Russians always thought their nuclear deterrent was sufficient enough to make war with anyone else impossible. That, combined with a very entrenched culture of corruption left Putin and his minions free to rip off the military budget to the tune of billions. That's how they were all able to afford those huge yachts. Seems everyone at every level of the Russian military and the military industrial complex in Russia was on the take.

We lost just over 48,000 in the war and then the total for all deaths reached 58,000 when counting non-war deaths.

I keep hearing this coming from the Ukrainians, however, the Russians are not saying anything about yet another big mobilization.

I don’t think it will happen.

It does work to keep the money drive for Ukraine going, though.

Thank God. North Korea wouldn’t have been an utter cockup for the Americans if we had just had better propaganda directed at American civilians at home.
