Maybe. But they also have every reason to lie since $58billion needs to destroy something, right?
Nato’s war on Serbia had similar claims. When the bombing stopped, Nato generals were amazed how little military targets they destroyed were actually ‘targets’ [for example, open a microwave door, turn it on, and it has the same electronic signature as ground radar for missles]. Nato was REAL GOOD at destroying hospitals, markets and passenger trains, though.
I remember “destroyed” Serb MIG’s being flown out of the war zone. So we’ll see, I guess.
Big difference between high altitude bombings and squads on the ground using anti-tank munitions. Plus, nowadays we have endless amounts of video from the front lines showing the actual wrecked vehicles for confirmation.
Welcome to Free Republic and you’re fos.
The reason the NATO generals were able to reassess the damage after the war: NATO won.
Also interesting that the same people who call the Ukrainians nazis, are upset we bombed the Serbian nazis.
