“Well, that means they can no longer execute a war, but their future was ruined by placing their children as fodder instead of not trying to punch above their weight.”

I’m putting you down in the column for surrendering if an adversary so much as farts in your general direction.

Hey, buddy: WE punched above our weight in 1775 at Lexington and Concord and Breed’s Hill and Bunker Hill; and throughout the war. Japan punched above its weight against Russia in 1905. History is full of examples of countries and peoples “punching above their weight.”

If we were invaded you’d by Robert DeQuisling before the sun set.

No. History is full of small countries losing wars to big countries.

That’s just the reality. Not your comic-book fantasies where people in the Ukraine die in the hundreds of thousands with nothing at the end but USA and EU betrayal.
