The Russians still haven’t started their offensive. So far they are in a defensive posture, meat grinding the Ukrainians with their war of attrition, and advancing slowly when there is an opportunity to. The Russians have great recruitment numbers, more weapons, and more shells (10 to 1 advantage over the Ukrainians), and an air force. The Ukrainians are out of trained men (that is why the draft and press gangs), out of weapons, out of shells and out of their minds to keep the war going.

I wish to inflict defeat on the US? Ukraine is a foreign country, it is not the US. Maybe take geography next year when you graduate from grade 5. The US should have been negotiating peace for Ukraine. Second, the US should not have driven Russian into the hands of China. Good Lord. So many stupid blunders by the neocons. Throw endless, public money away for war in some corrupt, foreign country that nobody knows where and maybe start WWIII — how’s that for the Biden administration? Go ahead and side with those losers if you want.

Again, the same nonsense. It's Russia attacking and Russia getting attritted, in some areas so badly the Ukrainians (weak as they are) are able to counterattack.

Your side has been touting all the supposed Russian advantages from day 1. They have never been able to apply them. Right now they have some advantage because of the glide bombs but that will go away as soon as Ukraine gets more air defense. Russia only has a 4 or 5 to 1 advantage in manpower. All the Ukrainians have to do is keep killing them at a higher ratio and they win. If they win, they get EU membership and a functioning, Western-level society. If the Russians win, they get to steal a toilet or flatscreen TV to go back to the toiletless steppes of Mir. Who do you think is more motivated?

No matter what their fortunes, the Ukrainians will keep resisting. Being killed fighting is better than being killed & despoiled by Russian scum.

We didn't "drive" Russia to China, they cooperate because they have more in common than with us.
