“In the absence of Russian transparency about their losses, reliance on US and NATO casualty estimates is reasonable.”
You’re welcome to do that, but as far as I’m concerned, I see land getting rolled up, daily now, by Russia, and I see motivation, $$$$$$’s, for what has been a virtual NON-STOP string of lies in just about every other area of this war.
So, no, I WILL NOT trust the Biden Administration, nor CNN, as to Russian numbers, because, believe it or not, they have lied to me in the past, many, many, times.
But if it does make you feel better about your tax dollars going to Ukraine, feel free to believe Biden/CNN all you want!
Golly, it must be difficult to accept the US victory in World War II considering that FDR was President.
