Very true!

I come to this thread and others, not to cheerlead one side over the other, but to simply find out what has happened.

I am retired military and absolutely interested in, for me, what is/was my profession.

The biggest problem that I see for Russia is logistics and got the Ukraine is higher-level staff.

I served from the 70s-90s and I very well remember all those news reports saying how awful our gear was.

I did believe, until this past year, that the Russians were ten feet tall, because that’s what we all thought. Every single rater of military forces had/has Russia as the World’s # 2 power, no?

Finally, I know how much we all hate the Woke, Obama, Biden, the democrats, the news media... The WEF and UN, Soros and Schuabb—all can take a hike. But it shouldn’t make us hate our own country. I will not belittle American troops. I want the woke yoke taken off of them (and I’ll bet you most troops do to), not more ridicule and rancor.

Many of the people supporting Russia pretty much despise America the same way as folks pushing The 1619 Project. America is evil, Putin is the good guy, the savior of Christians. If there were ever war between USA and Russia, not all freepers would be rooting for us...

IMHO, that was always the goal of QAnon. The real "Red Pill" is that Americans are the bad guys, Russia the good guys.

Yep, most of us still support our nation and our troops, especially the ones facing Russia right now.

Speedy’s thread on Russian equipment losses during this invasion is the best daily thread here.
