The Russians are not living up to their boasts as evidenced in their Ukrainian invasion. However, it is questionable that the U.S. and NATO military forces would be successful in a confrontation with Russia.
“Ukraine is getting the stuffing knocked out of it right now.”
Yup, Ukraine is going to get their butts kicked all the way to Sevastopol.
If Ukraine were to surrender right now, Putin would have the unenviable task of figuring out what to do with some halfway large number of ****4brains captive nazis. Putin's ideal win would be to have Ukraine surrender and the last ukronazi be killed on the same day.
I just hope that happens a week or so prior to the November elections and I believe there is a good chance of that.
Putin is not winning. He has cancer and his plans to dissolve the Duma in December and call a special presidential election for March to install Patrushev as his successor are a mess. He hasn’t secured any of the territory in Ukraine. Temporary occupation and Ukraine knows it and are getting ready for winter fighting already.
Also, US has funded Ukraine with lend lease through September of next year. Putin will be cancer dead by then.
Russia does have hypersonic cruise missiles which America can’t quite seem to field.
LOL...this POS has his days numbered.
The Russians have never acknowledged that they fought WW II with the Studebaker trucks we gave them. Try and find a picture of one in Russia.
This is one thing that gets me about you neocons, you make statements in the absolute when in fact you don't know s!it from shinola.
They need a careful of Viagra to get into”firing position”
Too bad the dumbass doesn’t use advzz as need technology to build Russia’s economy .
They are just a Saudi Arabia with Siberia
If only we can get Liz Cheney on a Ukraine tour just before a Russian strike. I’m sorry if that is crude but I just can’t get worked up about Russia with the damage being inflicted by the Deep State on America.
Sure they are Vlad.
Sure they are.
Adequate to do what? Not adequate to defeat it, that's for sure...
More than adequate to crush, destroy and defeat the vastly inferior armed forces of Ukraine. For several Ukrainian cities, it is not a matter of being defeated; as a practical matter they no longer exist. The continued hunker in the bunker under artillery fire only serves the purpose of senseless loss of life and devastation.
Yeah, that Kherson counteroffensive will be kicking off any day now 🤡
Meanwhile the red tide in Donbas continues to roll west....
Good post. You know your stuff.
The European NATO countries are pretty useless. The UK, for instance, could only field two divisions.
After the first Gulf War, the Russians said they were glad they didn’t have to fight us because of our superiority in all areas. Now it’s a different story, as you say.
