It is time for NATO to go on high alert and prepare for a hot war with Russia. Yes, it's risky as hell, but we don't have a choice.
If there's any way at all, find back channels, find weakness in the Russian government with any access to Putin, and urge them to remove him from the ranks of the living.
That time was before the Olympics started when Xi and Vlad had their summit. Btw, gas was 3.37 in Boulder, CO today. Republicans are liars, in every thread.It is time for NATO to go on high alert and prepare for a hot war with Russia. Yes, it's risky as hell, but we don't have a choice.

Their soldiers are even less competent than their commandThe biggest problem they're having is that they underestimated the Ukrainian resistance and their equipment is old and badly maintained. This is a higher HQ screw up, not a Soldier screw up.
Yes and no. Their Soldiers aren't less competent than our Soldiers are, in a general sense. What the Russian military lacks, as opposed to the US military is a strong NCO structure to train and motivate those Soldiers. The Russian military is very "Officer centric" whereas our military is very "NCO centric." Our military tends to prioritize the roles of NCOs, whereas most European militaries tend to deemphasize NCOs and prioritize officers, who don't care about the development of lower enlisted Soldiers. I have no idea if you servered or if you understand what I'm talking about, but I hope this makes some sense to you.Their soldiers are even less competent than their command
