“Russia’s economy is strong and its industrial base is the largest in the world except for China.”

That’s FIGHTING WORDS for the Neocon Supporters...even if is true. They spend their GNP on manufacturing, particularly military items, we spend ours on Lawyers and DEI. Heck, we even need to hire back a bunch of old farts just to build Stingers...which have to be redesigned and built with parts and materials from CHINA, whether we like it not.

My guess is that the press-ganged Ukie cannon fodder is going to get tired of going into the Russian guns for another house in the Bahamas for Vlod.

There’s zero evidence Russia is able to make meaningful offensive progress with Wagner forces, to say the least of without them.

The evidence is that Ukraine has a small overall advantage that it has pressed to take back Russian-held territory in fits and starts over the past year, and will continue to do so.

The only things that makes it a “stalemate” is Russia’s willingness and ability to commit continual war crimes ... intentional missile strikes on civilian targets ... while Ukraine is either unwilling or unable to do the same.

Seems so far taking territory has proved more difficult then defending it. The Russians seem like the only side that has made gains. The Russians seem open to peace talks where they keep the gains as a starting point. Zelrndky seems to reject this. So it’s a stale mate in a way...Russia could likely continue to slowly gain more territory but don’t currently have the will. But might later...

A dozen F 16s for fighter cap for the activity of about 30 Warthogs in 5 squadrones woud give Ukraie awin.

ButBiden is slow walking the supplies so that his Dem thigs can extend their kick back money scheme payments as long as possible.

Mafioso Joe dod not have any vigorish from the Afghan war, which is why he got out and immediately set up the corrupt money sluice from Ukraine for his treasonous Dem dogs, using the Soros European banking network to launder the money.
Why do you think Hunter spends so much time at the WHoite Hut, heis an expert at extorting money from Ukrainian enterprises.

The UKES would have had tac air a year ago if it wasn’t for Mafioso JOe, Nato allies wanted to give them both Migs and F-16s.

The reason this wasn’t over last summer via negotiation or steamroll was massive amounts of NATO armaments. It has been stalemated ever since this reckless escalation. NATO can match Russian escalations in the future as well. Stalemated quagmire.

Russia can produce everything it needs to sustain its combat operations in Ukraine.
Ukraine, by contrast, is totally dependent on the largesse of the United States and NATO countries......

Clearly evidencing Zelensky nor Ukrainians have any conrol over this war....never did.
