I am not associated with this channel. I like Chris' presentation and content. He states his bias, but also the things that support the other side. He questions the forty billion US spent and gives his opinion on why.

His analysis is way above average you see from the renowned “experts” on mass media but still flawed because largely based on propaganda peddled as facts by the very same mass-media.

T&P is glib and witty, and his embedded video production values are high, but I think Defense Politics Asia and Jacob Dreisen do a lot better at mapping and analysis.

Yep, Dreizin is okay. I also like the New Atlas and Alex Mercouris.

Check this out.

We had better be able to fight every war with high-tech standoff weapons, because if we have to fight a large scale infantry war, (not just a few elite units with 100% air cover) we’re screwed.

Watch this, then imagine sending entire battalions of these troops to engage the Russians in the Donbass.

Media’s not working. Could be load, or it could be censorship. These days, chances are about even.

Belay that, took six tries. What a shit show. How that sort of rabid insubordination can fly is the death of unit cohesion. Nothing wrong with that loud-mouthed bitch that a solid punch in the jaw wouldn't cure. But of course, that would be racist, and you could probably kiss your career goodbye.

All I can say is if a fight starts, make sure that someone like that is on the casualty list right off.

Our military has only been fighting against enemies who have no air power, using basically elite units on the ground.

If we had to fight a near-peer enemy, similar to the current Ukraine-Russia battles along a 500 mile front, and we had to send all of our troops, not just elite units...

The mind boggles.

That’s just it, we have no “near peers”, and most everyone we fought did have an airforce when it started but we immediately eliminated it at the start.

Our advanced weapons and tactics haven’t stood the test of a time in any war. Logistics, alone, is probably going sink any efforts we have as all that advanced tech needs logistics of contractors and materials that won’t be there.

This primal behavior from low IQ savages is common in the Army.

Yeah, the mighty Afghanistan Air Force, I forgot about them!

For sure, whipping Russia will be just as easy as whipping Iraq. That was a great war, just fantastic, so glad we did it.

Russia adjoins Ukraine and can also use Belorus.

We have to send everything thousands of miles.

Dreizen has a very good video about the logistics of getting U.S. MLRS systems to Ukraine, compared to the ease Russia has in getting their own MLRS systems to the battle fronts.

“In this installment of the Dreizin Report, we explain why it is so unlikely that NATO country MLRS systems would be deployed in substantial number to the Ukraine.”

Iraq had quite an army and airforce when we first engaged them. I can remember all the news articles about them having one of the largest militaries in the world at the time.

One important fact is being overlooked.

American weapons have never been deployed in a war on the North American continent.

The US Army developed the ability called logistics as the frontier was pushed westward. The lessons learned are still being applied

In your opinion, did Iraq have 100 combined arms battalions on par with Russia’s today? Able to fight in a modern digitally networked environment? Of course not.

In fact, Russia exported only what they literally call “monkey models” to their 2nd and 3rd world allies. For example, stripped-down tanks without stabilized guns, night optics, etc. They had learned that anything else could not be maintained in an operable state in Egypt, Syria etc, given their work force and infrastructure. Iraq could barely get jets into the air, in daytime only, much less fight.

IMHO your delusional thinking is on par with 1930s Americans who believed, based on propaganda, that the Japanese were nearly-blind idiots who could only make cheap toys.

I have no idea what you a blabbering about. Are you trying to argue that Russia has a good military?

ROFL?

They are a joke.

Quantities are also a major problem for us. We’ve been buying les quantities as tech has cost more. Less airplanes. Less airplane parts. Less circuit boards. Less of everything.

Second biggest problem: Contractors. What was uniformed operator/maintainers 30 years ago is now contractor maintained, uniform supervised, contractor operators with some uniformed operators, and contractor trainers and logistics. When I was an officer engineer I was hands on engineering even though I was also managing sites. Today, that position is merely a vendor manager position with zero engineering required.

“They are a joke.”

So, the war in Ukraine is over? What are you saying?
