Sounds like Mariupol is pretty darn close.just more pressure on the logistic lines , Moscow still dont occupy any big city in Ukraine
Literally reported daily.I'm talking about the Ukrainian troops casualties numbers. Not being reported.
why ´d they give this card to Moscow RT propagandacondoms ? still are aware of the fact that Ukraine has more troops than Moscow and than they have at the begging of this war ?I'm talking about the Ukrainian troops casualties numbers. Not being reported.
Where?Literally reported daily.
You mean this old war-whore?you just posted a long useless text from a NOBODY , how is about the N1 military strategist Edward Luttwak?
I agree this is not something to broadcast but my point is not knowing while reporting Russia casualties gives a one sided image of the war. OTOH Deuce says it's being "Literally reported daily."why ´d they give this card to Moscow RT propagandacondoms ? still are aware of the fact that Ukraine has more troops than Moscow and than they have at the begging of this war ?

I hear random ass references to Ukraine troop casualty estimates on like CNN pretty regularly. Of course, they're just estimates and sources differ, but that's also true of Russian casualty estimates.Where?
yes, a middle size " city " (98% of which destroyed ) Mariupol is holding occupiers for 50 + days , it has played its role , whats next goal for Moscow ?Sounds like Mariupol is pretty darn close.
I stand corrected then. I guess I need to watch CNN.I hear random ass references to Ukraine troop casualty estimates on like CNN pretty regularly. Of course, they're just estimates and sources differ, but that's also true of Russian casualty estimates.
Or just any news segment on "UKRAINE WAR UPDATE!!" I guess?I stand corrected then. I guess I need to watch CNN.
you are wrong, Ukrainian army is outgunned (heavy weapons) but it has more soldersWas always under the impression Russia's standing army is twice the size of Urkraine's.
Are you sure?you are wrong, Ukrainian army is outgunned (heavy weapons) but it has more solders
I guess I have just been watching the wrong stuff!Or just any news segment on "UKRAINE WAR UPDATE!!" I guess?
Although there's less of that these days, it seems. Our national attention span is reaaal short.
yes, due to Ukrainian mobilization
All Putin has left to play now is threatening all out nuclear war. His land army is a joke and his navy has lost two major ships to a country with no navy. How incompetent do you have to be to be sacked in Russia?
no, check out the maps. by the way "Run silent and run deep." is exactly what Biden does , i know you hate it , so what ? just get over it ...
I hope you are right but there are some substantial differences between Finland and Ukraine.View attachment 67386546
1) in 1939-40, without any formal declaration, the USSR, in its infinite wisdom, decided to invade Finland in what become known as "The Winter War" (1st Soviet-Finnish War)
2) Finland vs USSR, The Winter War (1939-40) - duration: 3 months, 1 week, 6 days
****************************************************************************************
- population - 3.5 million vs 170.5 million
- combatants - 300,000 vs 750,000
- tanks - 32 vs 2,514 to 6,541
- aircraft - 114 vs 3,880
- casualties - 70,000 vs 400,000 (former Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev estimated losses over a million)
- tanks lost - 20 to 30 vs 1,200 to 3,543
- aircraft lost - 62 vs 261 to 515
3) in 1939-40, Finland represented far less of an adversary than Ukraine (2022), despite making territorial concessions in the Moscow Peace Treaty (1940), the Finns retained their independence and humiliated the "vaunted" Soviet military on the world stage
4) the "unintended consequence" of the Soviet military "debacle" was that 15 months later Hitler unleashed "Operation Barbarossa" - based largely on the assumption that if the USSR's armed forces couldn't "steamroller" over Finland, they certainly were no match against what was arguably the most powerful military in the world
5) fast forward to 2022, Putin has failed to learn from Stalin's example in "the Winter War" that in the "high-stakes" world of geo-politics, a "SELF-INFLICTED" wound can trigger far greater "unintended consequences" - just as in 1939, Russia's neighbors are intently watching its supposed world-class armed forces "embarrassed" by Ukraine, a military "lightweight"
6) other nations, behind closed doors, are already calculating as how to use Putin's "unforced error" to their advantage

We'll just have to do a little shaming if it gets to that point.A little concerned about Germany and their vulnerability to Russian influence. It's very clear Germany doesn't want Ukraine to have heavy weapons, and it's probably not because they're afraid of a hot war with Russia. It's because they're afraid that Russia will end the war with Ukraine on its own terms and send their oil away from Europe, which leaves German center-left politicians a lot less wealthy than they were expecting to be -- no more Mediterranean coastal villas, I guess. I suspect that they secretly want the war to end so they can revive that Gazprom/Nord Stream 2 deal. Germany is going to be a problem post-Ukraine conflict as long as the NATO-skeptic SPD pansies are in command.
The Scholz Problem: Discontent Grows in Berlin over Chancellor's Ukraine Response
Germany's chancellor is coming under increasing pressure for his restrained Ukraine policies – in Brussels, but also in Berlin. A revolt has even begun within his own coalition, with calls growing louder for the country to supply Kyiv with heavy weapons.www.spiegel.de
Last i heard, Russia's tank factories were at near-stand still due to lack of necessary parts because of sanctions.I guessing Putin's tank factories are running at full capacity now and turning them out as fast as the Ukrainians can destroy them.

I posted this yesterday:I'm talking about the Ukrainian troops casualties numbers. Not being reported.
I hadn't personally seen that article before and therefore that article doesn't exist.I posted this yesterday:
Ukraine says between 2,500 to 3,000 of its troops have been killed, compared to Russia's 19,000
"As of now, based on the information we have...we just don't know how many people have died in that area that is blocked," Zelenskyy told CNN.www.businessinsider.com
I don’t know for sure, I’m just speculating, but I wouldn’t be surprised if U.S. Special Forces are in Ukraine. Killing Russian generals is exactly what they’d do. I think the count is 6, so far.This is not new. This is just the first we've heard about. Lots of equipment moving in that isn't being advertised.

Not sure I agree that killing Russian generals is their speciality. My dad as a Green Beret helped overthrow governments and kidnap high value officials, but never heard him talk about assassinating anyone. Ukraine has their own snipers. That said, you can bet they are there acting as advisors and have been for some time. I saw one article that said they have been there since 2015.I don’t know for sure, I’m just speculating, but I wouldn’t be surprised if U.S. Special Forces are in Ukraine. Killing Russian generals is exactly what they’d do. I think the count is 6, so far.
