In the week following the invasion of Ukraine, Col Douglas Macgregor predicted that Russia was on the verge of victory.

There is a big difference between a great tactician and a strategist.

"Go to Russia dude. "

What are you- a Biden lover?
Do you think the Ukraine-lovers like Biden, the media, Soros, Pelosi, and all the usual people have suddenly stopped lying?

Are you unable to come up with an intelligent response to him so you resort to bad-mouthing?

An imaginary world based upon....IF.

Would ZelenskyyIdiot’s incessant groveling, pleading, and begging for money, tanks, planes, artillery, munitions, other military hardware not be enough for you to admit that the Ukrainian tanks, planes, artillery, munitions, and other military hardware are systematically being destroyed in numbers enough to require that ZelenskyyIdiot trademark type groveling, pleading, and begging?

This would be right in line with the traditional Russkie military practice of winter offensives, their favorite.

The one time they really failed in winter (but won in spring) was in Finland.

Ankle biters are a dime a dozen, especially when coming from Canuckistan.

Let me know when Canuckistan amasses 100K troops.

Ukraine could have come over to Canuckistan and whooped it in about 10 minutes.....

Remember Kazan is the one who predicted that the Ukrainians would surrender in a few days. I hear he gets an extra ration of vodka with every 100 propaganda posts.

That works when Russia is being invaded but Russia isn’t being invaded.

Three words: “rate of fire”.

Modern weapons can put a lot more ordnance down range compared to their World War II counterparts.

And February of this year. They won’t do any better next winter.

Nonsense the Russians have lost lots of winter offensives. For example, Operation Mars in 1942 against the Rzhev Salient outside Moscow. Total disaster!

Listen old timer (like me), I’ve explained it to him and others a dozen times.

I hate Biden, Soros, globalism, etc.

That doesn’t mean a Russian invasion of Ukraine is good for America, any more than it would be under President Trump.

Putin is a bad actor, multiple threats against America and NATO BEFORE the war.

The war was encouraged by Biden’s weakness.

Ukraine is rich in energy and did resources, as well as manpower and strategic position.

It is best he loses - for America.

And the arguments of theRussia lovers are 90% disgusting. As in Russia is a wonderful country fighting a holy war, and the USA is evil and has been in every war we’ve fought.

They are idiots who can’t chew gum (hate Biden) and walk (oppose Russian aggression) at the same time.

Now I’ve answered him and you, and if you’re ready to start calling me a Soros agent, Biden lover, Gay and globalist that’s your mistake not mine.

The outright cheerleading by many of these posers for Russia, and against America, is despicable and an embarrassment to this forum.

All the genius naysayers who are so much smarter than McGregor show up for their requisite globalist bootlicking. Cash those paychecks, clowns.
