Austin: ‘Ukraine’s Going to Decide What Victory’ Is and We’ll Focus ‘on What’s in Front of Us’

Victory is when the treasury is completely looted and our adversaries and competitors become sworn enemies.

No plan... at all. Just throw money and arms into a black hole.

[Flavious_Maximus]

Think of a 500 pound tribal chief living in a mud hut in Africa. Visions of grandeur.

That’s Austin. Same thing.

[PGR88]

In other words: “I’M WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO TELL ME THE PLAN.”

[McGruff]

“Austin: ‘Ukraine’s Going to Decide What Victory’”

I agree on this one, although their decision will be made AFTER Russia replaces their government.

[timza]

In other words, the United States does not have a clearly defined, achievable, decisive objective in its endeavors in Ukraine. Much how he ran CENTCOM.

[Seruzawa]

This is not Afghanistan. Russia will use nukes. God what a bunch of fools.

[M Kehoe]

Ivan may have a third world military, but he does have deliverable nuclear weapons.

We are.being ruled by the Idiocracy. Or the military industrial cabel.

Austin is nucking futz.

My guess is that the Ukrainians will push the Russians back to roughly their Feb 2022 starting positions. Newly acquired longer range Ukrainian artillery is already reaching Mariupol, so the Russians now have nowwhere to hide in south Kherson and Zaporizhia. This is prep for an assault to retake southern Zaporizhia, split south Kherson off from Donetsk and roll up Russian forces in southern Kherson.

Assuming this happens, a peace deal will be reached including Ukraine entry into NATO and a fast track into the EU.

[pierrem15]

but he does have deliverable nuclear weapons.

So do we. Last I counted, about 10 warheads for every Russian town of 50k inhabitants or greater, with a few hundred left over for our Chinese friends.

Which is why they won't be used.

[pierrem15]

I agree on this one, although their decision will be made AFTER Russia replaces their government.

That's even less likely than Trump becoming President again.

[G Larry]

Gen. Austin just informed us that the U.S. will let Zelensky determine when we've given him enough money and weapons.

Zelensky will not be satisfied until he has Crimea back and Putin is dead.

"What is in front of us" is WW III and the destruction of America and the West.

Not because we can't win, but that is not the objective of Biden's handlers.

[MarMema]

When NATO joins this war genuinely, and does to Moscow what they did to Belgrade,Baghdad, etc.....better hope you survive the nukes
Russia will send far and wide.

Bless XI for trying to negotiate something with Ukraine. Xi knows the writing is on the wall.

[norsky]

thanks for the humor. kinda walter mittyish.

[1Old Pro]

“Ukraine’s going to decide what victory’s going to look like,” and “we’re going to focus on what’s in front of us right now and put them in the best possible position to continue to be successful.”

COP OUT, fire his rear. I want to know what victory is or I want an end to my tax dollars going there.

[Bulwyf]

You think their suffering is funny? Weird fetish I guess.

[rbmillerjr]

“Every Ukrainian I’ve met here blames zelensky for this war and all their troubles.”

Yeah, that is funny.

[Bulwyf]

You talk to them then and tell them different. I don’t care beyond wanting to stay far away from all that and my money and resources.

[rbmillerjr]

Well, it’s not true, so there is that.

Ukrainians hate Russia and Putin even more. They know who has invaded them and they intend to keep killing them until they leave.
