The ragtag Ukrainian conscripts don't want to die against a solid and lethal wall of defense.
The Ukrainians are under enormous pressure to commit suicide.
“There will be losses”
Bank that
The only way that Ukraine wins is for full NATO involvement, including air and ground forces.
Ukrainians are fighting for the freedom of their country. The Russians are fighting to impose totalitarian domination. Ukrainians are fighting invaders. The Russian “Mir” bombs civilians. I think 80% is a serious underestimation.
The only battle the Ukrainians are winning is the PR battle
—> Ukrainians are fighting for the freedom of their country.
If this was true, they wouldn’t have forced conscription…
That's nonsense, Ukraine needs weapons.
We sent Ukraine 200 M113's, and have 6,000 in stock that we will never use.
We sent 113 Bradleys to Ukraine, we have 2,000 in stock...
You lie like a rug. Russia has avoided killing civilians throughout this campaign. Ukraine on the other hand has been using civilians as human shields. Add that to the terrorist acts of blowing up the pipeline, the dam and efforts to blow-up the nuke station. Stop your lying.
Which we had in WW2...

And monkeys could fly out my butt.
Feb 25, 2022, Russian's moved into Hostomel. They took up positions around the 'Fora' supermarket. From here they set an ambush attacking 12 vehicles. The ambush reportedly resulted in the death of 11 and wounding of 15 civilian's.
You lie, the Ukrainians nazis did that and then tried to blame it on the Russians.

Moron, its russian troops.
Thats easy for the pentagon to say
UNHCR estimates approximately 9,000 Ukrainian civilian deaths.

The Iraq war logged about 300,000 civilian death with the US doing all it could to avoid civilian casualties.

Given the universal Ukrainian use of human shields, I’d say Russia has done very, very well in avoiding civilian casualties
US isolationists have a long history in the US, fortunately in the past they were ignored.
OHCHR believes that the actual figures are considerably higher, as the receipt of information from some locations where intense hostilities have been going on has been delayed and many reports are still pending corroboration. This concerns, for example, Mariupol (Donetsk region), Lysychansk, Popasna, and Sievierodonetsk (Luhansk region), where there are allegations of numerous civilian casualties.
