I am sorry for being blunt, but this comment betrays your utter ignorance. Which is not a surprise given that we heard the similar ignorant statements of the top brass like Hodges or Petraeus who know nothing about war as well.
Regarding rolling Ukraine over, what was the loss ration between sides in Vietnam, and how do you know what Russian objectives are? From Russian POV, it is a liberation war, hence the effort to have it territorially limited and minimize collateral damage as much as possible.
Regarding activated to active duty, what do you think was taking place in Russia? “Mobilization” was exactly calling reserves to active duty.
Regarding Soviet-Afghan war you are once again showing utter ignorance. The insurgency was specifically incited by the US at the time and supported to enormous degree. Not only it was particularly massive, so was the level of the Soviet control and the country was mostly safe not counting areas bordering Pakistan. If anything Russia was on your side during your time, the insurgency was minimal and had no reasonable external support, and you still had zero control hiding behind the wire most of the time surrounded by hordes contractors whose lives didn’t count. Not to mention the epic exit from A-stan, it was truly amusing.
And regarding air superiority, you are once again showing your utter ignorance. Take some book and learn what the term is and then tell me who has it over Ukraine if not Russia.
And I had plenty of deployments to judge and speak all of the above, and I certainly didn’t shake behind the wire while at it.
Regarding activated to active duty, what do you think was taking place in Russia? “Mobilization” was exactly calling reserves to active duty.
The US has 5000 Abrams tanks. How many have been given to Ukraine? Potemkin Russia has no hope of every matching the firepower of Ukraine’s friends and allies. Russians need to understand this point clearly. They’ve lost.
The cream of Russia’s military has been smashed to little pieces in Ukraine. Its remnants dig like scared rabbits into stolen Ukrainian land while leaving vast areas of newly annexed “Russia” still under Ukrainian control. How much more weak and pathetic can Russia be? Actually, Prigozhin and his “coup” showed us that. LOL.
Interesting way to show air superiority, and a few stingers is hardly massive support
Hide behind the wire, lol, you boys sure know a lot about not much, but keep smashing those key boards and talking great Russian “liberation” victories
Yup bakmut is a great example of Russian “liberation”
