In the News/Activism forum, on a thread titled NATO’s false promises are encouraging misplaced Ukrainian hopes , adorno wrote:
So where’s Ukraine gonna get replacements?

Supposedly, Ukraine lost all their troops in the first year of the war, according to the many reports which had them suffering massive losses from which they wouldn't be able to recover. So, who the heck is doing the fighting NOW???

And, remember that Ukraine is not doing the fighting alone. But, officially NATO and the U.S. are not there.

So, where's Russia getting there 'replacements'? They've lost close to 500,000 killed and injured. That's close to 2.5 times the number of troops that the U.s. Marines have, and about the same number of troops/grunts in the U.S. Army.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, and their assistants in the Media and Biden regime are the only ones that claim such high losses for Russia. People have collected information on funerals in Russia, and burials, and the numbers are no where near that high. Russia's population is so much larger than the Ukraine's that it still has reserves to call up. When asked about the slow speed of the fighting, Putin said the speed of the fighting suits him and his purposes because it helps him conserve soldier's lives. The Ukraine does not have control over the speed of fighting, and lacks key assets light air defense and competitive quality and numbers of pilots and aircraft.
The Ukraine has far more trouble conscripting troops and can no longer replace what they lose in daily fighting. The war of attrition is being won by the Russians. There's no need to fight all the way down to the last Ukrainian. The Ukraine needs to negotiate for peace but NATO (Biden) won't let them.

Of course. They all have to be lying all the time. Can't trust anything that goes against your side and your views.

People have collected information on funerals in Russia, and burials, and the numbers are no where near that high.

Who collected? Who did the reports on those burials and funerals? Who went to all the hospitals and funerals and burials and COUNTED all the deaths and injuries. Oh, it must've been Putin himself, since you give him complete credibility on all matters concerning the invasion and the effort to take over Ukraine.

The only people who try to report the truth about what's happening in Russia and in the war, get arrested and prosecuted and imprisoned for 16 years, IOW, just being a reporter seeking the facts, gets you labeled a spy and imprisoned. That's the truth. It's in the news, dummy!

Purely IDIOTIC!

Russia's population is so much larger than the Ukraine's that it still has reserves to call up.

Yeah, sure. Russia is larger in population, but, not all of them are in the military and not all of them are willing to serve, and a lot of them prefer to flee than to fight in an unpopular war. Perhaps you can enlist and help Putin out.

When asked about the slow speed of the fighting, Putin said the speed of the fighting suits him

Hey, dummy, what else was he going to say? That his troops met with heavy resistance and heavy fighting and suffered major losses? You're becoming a bigger idiot with every word you say or write.

and his purposes because it helps him conserve soldier's lives.

Putin is just as big a liar as Karine J. Pierre. He's as big a fake as she is. Baghdad Bob was taught by Putin. And you are a perfect Baghdad Bod student.

The Ukraine does not have control over the speed of fighting, and lacks key assets light air defense and competitive quality and numbers of pilots and aircraft.

No shit Sheriock. Ukrain was and is a much smaller military and they expected that they wouldn't have to be in a war, so, why even bother to spend when they didn't have to? But now, the military weaponry rivals whatever Putin puts up and they're getting the planes and pilots, which I'm sure YOU and Putin won't appreciate.

The Ukraine has far more trouble conscripting troops and can no longer replace what they lose in daily fighting.

Yeah, that's what's been said for over 2 years now, and yet, the Russians are still having a very hard time even holding on to the 17.5 of Ukraine they took in the first 2 months of the invasion. Russia is losing more men on the battlefield than Ukraine, and those can't be replaced to make a difference.

The war of attrition is being won by the Russians.

Who the heck is giving you that information? Putin can't be believed on anything and you actually believe all his lies. The Russians are having a much harder time recruiting than the Ukrainians and are having to force men or all ages to the battlefield, with almost no training.

There's no need to fight all the way down to the last Ukrainian.

Yeah. They should just surrender and let Putin have his way and commit genocide in Ukraine to eliminate anybody that even frowns about Russia's takeover. If you had been there when the American revolution was taking place, we'd still be part of the original 13 colonies and ruled by England. No need to fight because, we might die. Dumb as hell!!!

The Ukraine needs to negotiate for peace but NATO (Biden) won't let them.

Biden is gone but the policies remain. Regardless, it's not a Biden administration problem. It's about an invasion of a sovereign country by a tyrannical regime which was/is hell-bent on reconstituting the Soviet Union.

Stop being so dumb and ask your mom to give you back the brain which she withheld from you in the womb.

People don't appreciate hearing from the brain dead. It's why Biden is gone and you should leave the stage too.
