100,000 each in 280 days of fighting is 357 casualties each per day.

This isn't particularly alarming so far, but they are unlikely to keep up the pace for more than a couple years more.

The Iran Iraq war would be a good standard for comparison. While estimates vary, something like 500,000 casualties per side is in the ballpark.

Are not both sides of the political rogue government sending another 30 billion to Zelensky while trying to keep silent on air Marshall’s being sent to the southern AMERICAN border to silence our own invasion?

Same rogue government? Same monies sent elsewhere by ALL while America is being invaded and barely an article on the madness.

Gotta beat Russia, Russia, Russia.
Get out your Q-Krainian flags kiddies.
Afghanistan was a complete loss.
The border is a loss.
The drugs are a loss.
We’re losing trade to Chyna.
Ukraine is a loss.

Look at shiny objects elsewhere?

100,000 each in 280 days of fighting is 357 casualties each per day.

In WWII, the US suffered an average of 220 killed per day - in a country about 4X the population of present day Ukraine.

On the other hand, Germany suffered about 1500 dead per day during WWII, with about 2X Ukraine's pre-war population

So how long are Ukraine's casualties sustainable?

I can’t believe the cranky old fag in the White House has the ignorant morons living in this country all upset and concerned about the Ukie casualties killed by Russkis invading the Ukraine but couldn’t care less about the Americans murdered by invaders crossing our border. Biden is an America-hating commie pig.

If this is winning, I’d hate to see what losing looks like.

Moscow has been replenishing its supply of front-line troops through an unpopular conscription program at home that has now been extended to the [occupied] territories. Russia’s proxy army, the Wagner Group [...] have been recruited from Russian prisons and some have been brought in from other countries, especially the Middle East and Africa.

Winning?

Glad to hear that Russia's unprovoked attack and land-seizure is going so well that it is now reduced to having to scrape the bottle of the barrel for recruitment!

What's next? A Volkssturm?

But don't worry! Everything will turn to the better, once Steiner's Army attacks and saves Berlin! The Führer has promised!

Regards,

If Ukraine is lost the Biden Crime Syndicate portfolio will take a beating.

"Ukraine’s heavy casualties are a signal that Washington’s de facto war with Russia is in trouble. President Joe Biden has to change direction or face a national security crisis that could end his presidency."

If being in charge of a party of organized crime in Washington hasn't been enough to end his presidency, I don't see how 200000 in Asia will make a difference, unless Russia or Ukraine pays him a visit to thank him personally.

This is how Russia fights. They don’t care if they lose millions as long as they kill enough of the enemy to win.

Among the most stunning bits of information that have recently surfaced, reports in Poland say that around 1,200 Polish “volunteers” have been killed in Ukraine. These appear to have been drawn from Poland’s active land army, which consists of three main divisions.

"volunteers" from active duty Polish forces, but not NATO....🤔🤔🤔

Fake News

Ursala clearly stated 100,000 Officers killed in action.
Officers, not Soldiers
Many, many more Soldiers are killed.

I imagine that Biden has much better numbers than the author of this article.
