After a month of the counteroffensive and 20,000 dead, the Ukrainians still can't reach the frontline of Russian defense.

How do you know that the Ukrainians suffered 20,000 dead? Nobody in a war of this type knows exactly how many people were killed, wounded or missing.

Even in Vietnam, the U.S. only knew how many casualties we suffered but the weekly updates were always being revised (I got them from DDI at the Pentagon which was run by trusted friends of mine, all three being Vietnam Veterans).

Communist casualties were based on actual body counts on the battlefield, information from captured wounded or Hoi Chan’s - defectors, some of whom I interviewed in both So. Vietnam and Cambodia, and eyewitness reports from villagers who saw VC/NVA being carried away, the wounded often being buried alive in order to hide these casualties so that US/ARVN Intel couldn’t get a more accurate figure on an enemy’s particular unit/Division’s true losses/remaining battlefield potential effectiveness.

In Ukraine, neither side is going to broadcast their actual losses so no armchair blogger here is going to get more accurate casualties.

Another trap and a new ammunition to save the day. Good luck with that. You hitched your country to a bunch of losers. That's a shame. How many Ukrainian men are dead so far? They are fighting Russia so they can be ruled by western degenerates who already destroyed their own countries. That doesn't seem like victory.
