The armchair generals should be on the front lines.
“Weak is a meaningless word. Raussia has nukes.
Western Europe can’t be too worried, can they?
They’ve been buying Russian energy all along.
“...Russia has nukes...”
Yes, 10,000 of them. That is more than what the rest of the nuclear countries have combined. You only need 5 nukes to obliterate Britain. And 300 to destroy every major city in the USA.
But the EuroTrash and GloboHomo’s continue to insist on mutual assured destruction, thinking they will somehow survive a post-apocalyptic world.
Russia has chosen to execute a war of attrition that wears down Ukrainians’ will to fight.
Russia can both be defeatable and a serious threat to peace.
Proponents of Russian power similarly make claims that Russia is invincible and it is no threat to the rest of Europe.
Just propaganda by both sides.
Russia is a “paper tiger.”
Yet still prevailing despite NATO spending multiple times Russia’s military budget.
——“...Russia has nukes...”

Russia and our nation have almost the same number of nuclear warheads, NATO has more nuclear warheads than Russia.
The United States has more DEPLOYED nuclear weapons than Russia.
Actually, Russia is not prevailing.
While maintaining military pressure in the form of assaulting civilians in Ukraine, the efforts on the ground are ineffective and costly to the extreme. Both Russian men and material have been destroyed at a truly alarming rate. Ditto for Nork mercenaries sold by Kim.
Meanwhile, away from the front lines, Russia is being systematically torn asunder. The economy has become a military effort with normal activity destroyed. The oil upon which the war effort and the economy is dependent is in severe trouble. The refineries, transmission lines, rail lines and administration are systematically being attacked and rendered asunder.
The banking business has become ineffective simply because an economy can’t function with 20%+ interest rates. The 20% interbank rate becomes 30% to small businesses.
Winter is nearly here. Russian winter with an economy already in recession is going to amount to depression and likely failure.
if these generals cannot see the advantage to pumping up russia, who sits on china’s border, while focusing efforts towards china instead of removing china’s enemy...
then we really don’t need those generals.
they’re morons.
Actually different sources use slightly different ‘deployed’ numbers, but again, about the same, I don’t know how the other NATO nuclear powers figure into deployment of their weapons.
so does india, pakistan, england, and france.
should we go to war with them?
meanwhile, funny how to pro-war-with-russia crowd never mentions china (while pushing to go to war with their enemy on their border; ie: helping china)
It is the opposite, we need our allies stronger to lessen Russia’s efforts if we have to fight China.

Japan Sends Air Force to NATO Bases As Threats Emerge on Multiple Fronts
“The deployment of the Japanese air force—its first mission to Europe and Canada—follows the conclusion of a British aircraft carrier’s operations in Northeast Asia.
Moscow, Beijing and Pyongyang, part of an authoritarian bloc known as the “Axis of Upheaval,” strongly oppose NATO’s reach into Asia, accusing the U.S.-led military alliance of inciting a new Cold War that undermines regional security and stability.”

Very good points
Odd - I recall being mocked here about two years ago pointing out that the MIC and new world types wanted to take Russia and incorporate it and it’s resources into the ‘western’ system - and I believe that has been their goal for many decades.
It’s a bit shocking when you realize that any earthly ‘side’ you take is a villain.
So therefore theu shoild be able to do whatever they want?
Indeed, the argument that Russia was forced to do this because they were threatened is hollow.
For decades NATO has been on Russia’s border, no war
For decades the west has been trading with Russia and investing in their economy by building industry within Russia, helping develop their petro industry.
For decades the EU, in particular, have been letting their militaries degrade
And for decades Europe had become more and more dependent on Russia for its energy
All things nations do when they are planning to start a war🤔
This war is and has always been about putins ego and desires for power.
Ukraine was his last great hope of expanding their Soviet Union er ah Russia. Gain land, people, and resources and reinsert Russia as a global power.
His lamenting of the fall of the Soviet Union and power and prestige Russia lost is well documented in his own words.
Iraq, and Afghanistan actions by the US are completely different than the actions pitin has done.
The US never sought territorial gains, never went scorched earth as Russia has.
There is no comparison between these “wars”.
The Ukraine was the darling of the Soviet Union. In the Soviet era, it was entrusted with nuclear weapons, nuclear power plants and hardened underground munitions plants.
Iraq bought Soviet era junk at the garage sale.
Afghanistan’s only weapons were Soviet light arms followed by Biden’s “gift” of American arms.
If there is any similarity between these actions, it is that they are not wars, at all.
“Prevailing”???
Russia is only a few months away from the time it took to defeat nazi germany(a nation it started WW2 allied with) and has less territory in Ukraine then a few months into the war, sorry SVO/SMO.
Massive losses for incremental gains, economy with serious issues, Soviet legacy equipment depleted, went from 2nd largest weapon exporter to importer of weapons, food, and gasoline🤔
I guess that is prevailing 😎
