Putin can call up all the troops he wants, but Russia can’t train or support them

Vladimir Putin can call up all the troops he wants, but Russia has no way of getting those new troops the training and weapons they need to fight in Ukraine any time soon.

With his invasion of Ukraine faltering badly, the Russian President on Wednesday announced the immediate “partial mobilization” of Russian citizens. Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said on Russian television that the country will call up 300,000 reservists.

If they end up facing Ukrainian guns on the front lines, they are likely to become the newest casualties in the invasion Putin started more than seven months ago and that has seen the Russian military fail at almost every aspect of modern war.

In a harsh winter for soldiers think of how helpful being in the field among your own countrymen would be.

Supply will be easier, help from locals will be easier, and finding RR closer to the front will be easier, when the people of the countryside know you are suffering and what you need, they will be wanting to do what they can to make it more endurable for you, and that has to make a huge difference.

As a Texan, I long for the old map.

[Kazan]

Should we play it in the United States, and start killing each other to recreate old lines on maps?

You don't get it -- there was coup in 2014 that overthrow democratically-elected President, one the majority in ethnic Russian part of the country voted for.

Coups have consequences. Those disenfranchised should have every right to seek independence. And, that is the stance we took with Kosovo.

I am not sure what crap you are saying the Biden Admin has imposed on the military.

Two items I have notice are reports about providing help to soldiers who have experienced health issues from large burning pits emitting toxic fumes; and Marines and their families and base employees getting sick from years of drinking contaminated water, and being eligible for already approved benefits. I know someone who is retiring from years of service. Part of his leaving the military includes being evaluated for injuries he may have received during over 20 years’ service and what additions this might add to his pension.

[gleeaikin]

You think the new Russian recruits will be deployed in Nov. But does anyone think they will have their winter coats and clothes when deployed?

[Cronos]

One would never believe Shoigu or Putin, unless one was a fool

I am not sure what crap you are saying the Biden Admin has imposed on the military. Wow!

Seriously????

With that one post, you have shown your true colors by who you posted too and pretending not to know what the Biden Admin has done to the Military!

Simply Amazing!

Apparently you have either have had your head in a hole in the ground or purposefully have failed to mention the following three things, determental to readiness, contrary to our God-Given Alienable Rights, and perverse to boot:

1. Forced vaccinations for a vaccination that has not been tested, does not stop you from getting sick, does not stop you from being a transmitter, and has a higher percentage chance of harming you or killing you. Either you take the vaccination or you are forcibly discharged from the military. This resulted in a lot of conservatives, and only conservatives being discharged.
2. Teaching or requiring Woke propaganda.
3. Removing all overt Christianity and openly persecuting Christians.

You and your friends are TROLLS!

[SoConPubbie]

Absolutely not. But, nice try to change the subject. In any event, I’ve been reading his posts for months; so his history is well-documented.

Bullshit!

I neither tried to change the topic, or posted something out of context.

This was the original posters post, dealing with having serve under a POTUS who is destroying our military.

“I feel bad for our patriotic soldiers who didn’t sign up for these types of “leaders”:

This was what I posted in response:

“And what does his serving have to do with what he posted?”

Try again TROLL!

[usconservative]

Whoa...is that real?

Yes.

zero6:I didn’t forget

We're just concerned.

We want to be there for you in this difficult time.

Was the prognosis weeks, or months? Let's pray for years, so you can watch the TOTAL immolation of the EuroPeeing Onion and NATurd.

Actually, forget I ever said anything about this.

He’ll be angry about this till Pudding and Pills.

“You and your friends are TROLLS!”

Nice try. There are a great many of us who have been very, very critical of Biden and his administration.

I have family in the military, a nephew, now posted in Germany. If the flag is dropped, he will be one of the first engaged.

I think what Biden and that imbecile Austin have done to our military is not only terrible, it borders on the criminal.

So stop painting everyone with the same broad brush.

[Vermont Lt]

Wondering why you copied me on this.

I am not a black and white person as you. I can see that Russians in Ukraine need to be killed. At the same time I can say that Biden is a douche.

The two things are not exclusive.

[kiryandil]

You’re correct - a major league troll.

“so you can watch the TOTAL immolation of the EuroPeeing Onion and NATurd.”

You just proved my point about the utter childishness of your comments. With this most recent one, it also shows you have an unhealthy fixation with coprophilia and urolagnia. You may want to seek counseling for those fetishes.

You forget that you already posted #177?

Almost Pudding and Pills time, so No Worries! All those angry thoughts will be whisked away, as if by magic!
