Not sure what your point is, Russians are using d-20s also ww2 era weapons as well as old trucks and rocket launchers from ww2. My fav is the use of nagants and maxim machine guns.

You use what you have. I do find it fascinating that the same usuals who said Russia had unlimited ammo and equipment are silent about Russia going from second largest weapons exporter to net importer of weapons.

Don’t worry after months russia took a town the size of Mayberry

Russia has been more effective using older technology than Ukraine has been using advanced technology.

If we had a real military in the US, they should be scrapping themselves right now.

But they are more worried about pronouns and genital mutilation.

Ochoreteny took them about a week. I never understood the point of minimizing the enemy.

I beleive that his point has more to do with the “aid” or “loans” to Ukraine. Russia today has mostly new equipment replacing the old Soviet era stuff - but we are sending Ukraine stuff build by Reagan or for Afghanistan and replacing the US Military’s old equipment with Next Generation Equipment. The aid to Ukraine is a simple accountly Debit-Credit line item swap out. The reality is that Ukraine is being charged the price of the M-4 replacement Rifle when they get a 30-year old M16A2. Or a M113 or a Bradley is sent but they are charged for Striker going to the 4th Infantry Div in Colorado.

The entire backstory to this war is an economic gambit by Western leaders who bought up Ukraine, and continue to gain more rights to more of what’s left in Ukraine - kinda like you putting your house down as security for a home improvement loan - if you don’t repay the loan with money (and you don’t have an economy) then they sell the house and give you some more worthless money when they get paid back. You are out of a home but they in turn buy your old home. Now you rent. Multiply this scheme by all NATO countries using a line-item debit and credit system to re-equipment their force at a huge discount. Send Ukraine 4-5 F16s and then you buy a F35; you need fewer planes with each generation and Russia destroys the old equipment.

In my entire lifetime I do not believe that any war has been created or fought simply to enrich a bunch of countries who get the rights to another countries land and at the same time re-build their militaries’ on the cheap. Disgustingly enough but Obama and Biden simply make me sick.

2012: NATO began arming Ukriane immediately or concurrent with the Coup that overthrew the pro-Russian democratically elected government. The United States was well prepared and within a few months the USG/Dept of State/Dept of Commerence had used several dozen favored companies like Blackrock to secure the rights of most of the economically viable segments and facilities to run a country.

The final straw in the Ukraine timeline shows Blackrock (and others used by the USG to rape Ukraine finanically) have approximatley 350-450B USD in assets they are now writing off in Ukraine - (Following the money): Blackrock and the other “investors in Ukraine” were the first one’s approved the Bitcoin ETFs.

Bitcoin is being used by Blackrock to re-balance their asset sheets. Debit-Credit line item. Write off Ukraine, buy Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is going to have a nice run simply because of the Ukraine war. Bitcoin would have hit 170K this year with a 1% investment of US financial company assets for retirement accounts alone. 3% takes it 500K. By 2026 when Ukraine is defeated, Bitcoin will be worth 400K to 1.3M depending on world-wide investment pressure by governments approving ETFs.

So yea, Ukraine is getting old generational equipment to fight an enemy who is now as well equiped as what NATO is moving towards. Gotta love the CIA, the DNC, and the Globalists - they smell blood and make money; they see blood and they get rich.

One day Zeepers are telling us Ruzzia is a threat to the world.
The next day Zeepers are telling us It takes Ruzzia 2 months to
take a town the size of Mayberry.
Both can’t be true.
So which one is it?
