“You obviously do not know much about the western world’s military capability...”

...I think most people with ANY military background understand two things:

1) We WILL NOT win a land war in Eastern Europe against the now-modernized Russian army.

2) Airdropping a bunch of obsolete Western weapons will not enable Ukraine to anything more than maybe delay their defeat at Russian hands by a few weeks.

...and like most people on this site, I feel sorry for people that don’t seem to understand that a country cannot spend 20 years GUTTING ITS MILITARY and not pay a price for that.

I have been out since 1996...and perhaps the current American Military Machine (and western world) is much worse than I think. However, I have a hard time believing the Russian military junk can stand up to our modern weaponry. The Iraq conflict was a great proxy test of our technology. What...did it take 2 weeks to defeat the 4th largest army in the world.?.?
