From where are you guys getting the idea that a place as large as Ukraine can be "flattened" by an army as small as Russia's? That's not even remotely in the realm of possibility.

The Russia s tried for years to "flatten" Chechnya, which is more than twenty times smaller than Ukraine, and still couldn't do it.

I'm really curious as to where some posters are getting this idea. You guys can't have any actual military experience.

That’s because Russia is still classifying their invasion of Ukraine as a “special military operation.”

Militarily and legally speaking, they’ve made the strategic decision to not engage as though this were an actual war...so far.

They’ve tried. Their air force is being cautious so they dont get shot down.

We never hear about Ukrains retreats - most people know the ground fighting consists of advance and retreat many times over for both sides - thus the nature of war.

Ukraine is about the size of the Great State of Texas.

Let's see anything short of a full-scale, year-long war "flatten" Texas!
