How is taking half your territory back, striking at airbases considered inpenetrable, and all the way to Moscow, and adding two more countries to NATO (and doubling its standing army) considered losses?

Russia...
Yes and the North Koreans engineering expertise will be Russia’s deliverance and why is it that Israelis are killed by Palestenians. I am supportive of the Palestinian cause and Israel keeps getting a free pass, but that has nothing to do with the military component of this battle here.
Not to...
This is the G20 version of MBS’ NOEM. ITs a me too play to figure out a reason to galvinize a set of countries that don’t have much to galvanize.
If this was 1870, Suez Canal did not exist, and there was no major freight container ships, okay made sense. The world is full of container fleet...
Nobody claimed it. You are under some hallucination now that you have come out of hole after 2 months of doing something else. In the meantime news for you: you and your buddy Putin went from ‘special operation where Ukraine will be taken over’ to ‘Ukraine is not as powerful because Russia is...
We would perceive based on track record of invasion in Europe over the last 60 years that is solely the domain of the Kremlin (with our without the USSR):
40s in Finland, 56 Hungary, 68 Czech, and now…. So there is only one aggressor inside Europe. That does not mean that Europeans are angels...
Apologies to everybody else that I keep on exchanging Trump information to bust myths (or at least attempt at it). But it is an extension of Ukraine issue so it has to happen here.
RoadAmerica, I never said Trump had the worst deficit. I said it economy in his time was no better or worse in...
You are absolutely right on all three. Where you are wrong is PUtin’s image needs to be added to the same 3. He is no different: greedy imperialist thinking its his time to change the world order (much like the 3 images). Bush had neo-cons guiding his agenda, Putin has just his desire to repeat...
I think he teaches at Cornell University now. Wasn't he under attack (or was attack) for some provocative reporting? I am curious to learn what he did .
Apple did not lose the money. Its future upside in terms of future earnings is impacted because of this decision, so investors feel the shares are worth slightly less than they were. Stock price went down $10 when it was $189 before.
No organization wants to see its customer base evaporate. US...
I said nothing about Russian / Trump connection. I know thats a common refrain so any time you are defending trump you have to resort to that. But I never believed that to be true. But Trump did unfortunately surround himself with losers that were handled by the Russians. That is not the same as...
Okay yawn away. But yawn this: read sentences instead of glossing over the minute you read the word Clinton don’t get your MAGA panties in a bunch.
Nowhere did I say Clinton was an idol. Hillary did not deserve the nomination. She didn’t even deserve to New York senator. It was moving around...
Next is JASSMs once F-16s show up.
Does this mark a change in stance to provide deep strike weapons And an escalation ? This is beyond battlefield weapon.
Once out out criminals , its off to get citizens from the closest ally in the Americas to fight its war. This is why nobody wants to be...
The Gulf Arabs behave the same way as their ancestors, but do so with modern day slavery. Most European countries allow for Muslim immigration (I have friends in many of these countries that are in high paying jobs) of all kinds, including refugees. And when they go , they stay and eventually...
You are back to Trump worship in a thread to discuss Ukraine. He is has a has been and likely to be convicted in one of these court cases.
Spineless action when no retaliation when the Iranians attacked a US base in Iraq after the assignation of the Iranian general. Either see it through or if...
I was in Washington DC that week by coincidence so yes I saw the crowds but went in the opposite direction Of the Capitol. You think the entire justice system is wired against the Trump losers who somehow think it’s a good idea to disrupt peaceful transition to power. Nice to them being...
I am sure the US will worry about what to do if it goes bad. Thats crossing that bridge when that comes. Right now plan is to inflict max pain on Russia or at least humiliate Russia and expand NATO and make Baltic a lake of NATO.
Right now, what is known that targeting civilian population...
Russia did not/was not capable of an overt military threat. That said, they certainly were interfering with various means: cyberattacks traced to Russia, attacking dissidents, and manipulation of electoral systems via social media. You don’t have to believe these, but if the Governments believed...
