Russian has already lost

More incredibly, they may lose on the battlefield to Ukraine. Thei supply lines can’t get enough fuel, food, and munitions to its troops in the field. It has already committed all its reserves. It’s military has been exposed as poorly equipped and poorly led.

Putin can end this war today if he fucks on back to Russia. This war is much less popular in Russia than state propaganda would have us believe.

BTW Russia always had delusions of grandeur if we hadn’t entered WWII the Germans were chewing them apart, we saved their butt and they’ve always resented us because of that.
T H E. U N D E N A I B L E F A C T S:
Russian Great Patriotic War (aka The Easter Front in WWII) defeated Nazi Germany 🇩🇪
“The Eastern Front of World War II was a theatre of conflict between the European Axis powers against the Soviet Union (USSR), Poland and other Allies, which encompassed Central Europe, Eastern Europe, Northeast Europe (Baltics), and Southeast Europe (Balkans) from 22 June 1941 to 9 May 1945.
It was known as the Great Patriotic War in the Soviet Union and some of its successor states, while everywhere else it was called the Eastern Front.
The Eastern Front was decisive in determining the outcome in the European theatre of operations in World War II, eventually serving as the main reason for the defeat of Nazi Germany and the Axis nations.”
The poorly trained, poorly equipped, conscript army was told they would be welcomed as hero’s and their mission would be accomplished in a couple days of light fighting.
Instead, they are stuck behind enemy lines, constantly under attack, and low on food and other supplies.
And, that’s just one of many problems facing the Russians.

“The US population is generally ignorant, mis-educated, and deliberately lied-to, about international affairs even more than domestic politics.
They think of themselves as “America” and say, “we” and “us” when speaking about the national state of which they really know little and have less control.”

Creep Stalin also stupidly tried to cut a deal with Hitler to allow him to run rampant over Poland and the rest of Europe as long as he left the USSR alone. Hitler stabbed him in the back before the cretin could do it to him first.
Russia/USSR as a political state has been an enemy of the free, civilized world for much of it history. It reflects the petty jealous nature and stupidity of its people.
Russia is engaging in low intensity warfare and zelensky is begging the west to intervene to keep him in power.
Putin: Are our troops ready ?
General : Highly trained and highly motivated. Best in the world.
Putin : How’s the equipment ?
General : Top notch. Flawless.
Putin : Is the plan solid ?
General : It’s been developed and reviewed by the best minds.
Putin : How will the Ukrainians react ?
General : They all love you. They’ll erect statues to you.
Putin : How long will it take to conquer Ukraine ?
General : Two days tops.
Putin : Okay. Make it so .
Not to mentioned the huge drain those troops would have on Russia economically.
Meanwhile, Siberia ( with untold mineral wealth ), once partly controlled by China, would be unprotected.
China and India are big players and we help ease sanctions on him.
Militarily his tanks are useless against javelins and his planes nearly so against stinger. It's effectively infantry versus infantry. Can he draw in more troops? Would it require a draft? I don't know the mood in Russia well enough to comment, but if he can draft then his population is three times that of Ukraine so he will win eventually.
The media is saying it is a slam dunk and mark94 is parroting it, but I don't think it's over by a long shot.
Tank warfare was irrelevant when the US had air supremacy. Go ahead a put Tigers in the field and watch what happens when a Mustang or P38 Lightning comes along
It’s impossible to know how this all ends but there’s no way a country will be conquered and occupied if there is not a compliant and willing majority, that’s history both recent and ancient. If I were to give Putin some advice I’d tell him to declare victory now and go home, because this is not going to get better and the longer it goes on the more danger that Putin’s regime gets overturned and he ends up like Quadafi or Saddam Hussein.
From the beginning of the USA, there has been always an economic motive underlying all USA made-up conflicts/wars, even if the stated aim of the war is presented to the public as something more noble.
The 1%, the Robber Barons in the USA and their criminal accomplices all over the world, are constantly clamming that we are “protecting our strategic interests abroad” to create “conflicts/wars” than ultimately serve to protect the interests of wealthy American Criminals and their accomplices, wealthy puppet regimes all over the world.

Putin wants to be a ‘“strongman” and a “hero” to the ignorant Russian people like Stalin. He needs to be put down like a rabid dog.
The saving grace is the apathy of the Russian soldier. Their manta is, “We’ll pretend to fight, and you pretend to pay us.”

Russia is desperate.
But rly shame on Putin for this and for the idiot Russians still in that country who wont go against this.
Assuming Russian superiority in troop and equipment quantities, and even assuming not superior soldiers to Ukrainians (I have no info or opinion on that topic), and absent any cease fire, Russians seem destined to take Kiev. Holding Kiev and rest of conquered areas is another matter, and I'd think Ukrainians will wage guerrilla war for eternity until Russia withdraws entirely.
They’ll just set up outside the city and pound the shit out of it.
The statement, in a variety of forms;
“If you don’t like America, then leave!”
Has been passed down to generation after generation of egotistical, racist hate groups considered right-wing extremist and terrorist.
It’s something they enjoy saying as much as they enjoy saying the N-word and other racist/ethnic slurs...
It gives them a feeling of power, as if they immediate draw all of the power of the person they are attacking and become powerful due to it.
This feeling is short-lived as it is only a state of mind, everyone knows that people that do this are only doing it because they feel insecure and lack confidence often in their own intellect...
The bigger problem are people who think that America is untouchable and that it should not be criticized
My country, right or wrong;
if right, to be kept right;
and if wrong, to be set right.
The whole idea of "hating America" is, frankly, a stupid notion used by those who can't stand criticism.
You’re not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can’t face reality.
Wrong is wrong, no matter what, when where or who does it or who says it”
You’re pitiful my comment to you has nothing to do with racism you are just a fuck yard malcontent, that bashes America and Americans every chance you can Iceefag too, neither of you have ever lifted a finger to make this country better but you side with our enemies every chance you get. Go ahead and move to Russia you are a worthless coward
THE UNDENIABLE REALITY IS THAT:
“war is never economically beneficial except for those in position to profit from war expenditures”
“The America of wealth and privilege is hooked on war, without regular and ever-stronger doses of war it can no longer function properly, that is, yield the desired profits.”
“The nature of American created wars is that huge corporations and the 1% of the world benefit and the people suffer in America and the world...”

Even better do it in Moscow !
Everyone in the world knows the USA military–industrial complex is the main beneficiary of the modern imperialism manufactured wars.
And profiteers on both sides of the war line their own pockets at their countries’ expense.
It is undeniable that the USA. is the most powerful state on earth today, but few Americans think through what this implies.
For one thing, it means murderous military intervention in the affairs of other countries.

A prime example of intervention in the affairs of other countries, with the pretext of promoting “democracy”, but in reality trying to profit from the country’s resources.
All USA manufactured wars are caused by USA wealthy rulers and their military-industrial complex desire to take control of another country's wealth.
There is almost always an economic motive underlying most conflicts, even if the stated aim of the war is presented to the public as something more noble.
"If Putin continues to get boxed in through sanctions, trading and banking stoppages -- and he starts losing the war, that may be reason enough for him to employ tactical nuclear weapons," Venable told Fox News Digital. "The West needs to continue to apply pressure, attempt to broker a settlement/cease-fire while continuing to offer off-ramps that deescalate the potential" for a conflict between NATO and Russia.
“Doc” Savage, did the same tap-dancing blue jay that spends most of his time explaining shit to Mr. Anderson explain that to you?
If he wears a monocle 🧐 and orders pizza 🍕 on your credit card it’s the same bird that spends its time chatting with Mr. Anderson about Russophobia.
Don’t listen to that bird. Seek help for a qualified psychiatrist.

~ warning about the provocative effect of NATO expansion on Russia since 1995.
“Ukrainian entry into NATO is the brightest of all redlines for the Russian elite (not just Putin).
In more than two and a half years of conversations with key Russian players, from knuckle-draggers in the dark recesses of the Kremlin to Putin’s sharpest liberal critics, I have yet to find anyone who views Ukraine in NATO as anything other than a direct challenge to Russian interests.”
~ In 2008, Burns, then the American ambassador to Moscow, wrote to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice
The Russian speaking parts of Ukraine don't want to be part of Ukraine but Ukraine is forcibly attempting to stop them from leaving. According to the Ukrainians, they can secede from Russia but no one can secede from them.

What a bunch of degenerates
The Russian losses were certainly decreases by splitting the German army between fronts and strategic bombing. We'll certainly never know if the Russians would've been able to march in Berlin without that. But, they were the ones that took Berlin.
It is also been theorized that Japan only surrendered after Russian declared war on them. Two Atomic bombs and they were ready to keep fighting until that according to some historians.
A big factor in that was the US, Britain, France, everyone else cared how many people they killed. Russians didn't.
But this was all when "Russia" was the Soviet Union, and included Ukraine (and Georgia, etc...). And now, it's just Russia vs. Ukraine.
Present day, nobody's winning. Nato expanded East not because Nato wanted shit, but because Poland, etc. wanted NATO. If Putin wasn't an asshole and Russia behaved like a modern European democracy, Poland, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, many of these former Eastern block countries that didn't want shit to do with the Soviet Union joined (or are asking to join) NATO to keep Putin the fuck out. Apparently being ruled by these assholes is pretty miserable and they're determined to not let that happen again.
Fuck knows what Putin thought he'd get out of this. It's unimaginable that he'd expected to pay this much for it when he started. And doubtful he'll get whatever it was he wanted anyways. And Ukraine, they just want Russia to leave them the fuck alone, and now have then of thousands dead, maybe hundreds of thousands before it's over, and millions leaving their homes. You really can't kill enough Russian conscripts to make up for that...
Sure, Russia has some support in the East, there's always a few that are just too stupid to realize their just fucking themselves in the ass supporting someone who hates them, like the gay republicans... But they're just loud and stupid or being paid off (or just trolling with shit they don't even believe) and the media is stuck on this journalist idea that they have to present "both sides" to have even coverage and really don't have the resources to fully understand how over representing they are of a handful of jackasses.
And the "media"...
It's interesting how when CNN, BBC, Deutsche Welle, AP, AFP, Reuters and Al Jazeera all tell about the same general story and a bunch of wack job conspiracy nuts will just on some internet site and try and convince people it all a lie?
Just curious cj, would the pinnacle of your dick pic collection be scoring dick pics of Putin?
What they have done is fully justify the existence of NATO for at least the next 25 years.
Russia is desperate, bombing maternity hospitals and mining refugee departure paths. Those aren't confident actions.
Now begging China's support. Why would Xi want to embroil himself in this? It's a distraction from everything they care about. The more Russia is economically damaged, the more subservient they'll have to be to China.
This is going to keep getting uglier.
I am surprised at the incredibly poor performance of Putin's military. His forces fucked up a lot of the Chechen battles, but seemed much more competent during the action against Georgia. Prior to the invasion of Ukraine, it seemed the general consensus was that Putin had a created a modern, well-trained, and well-equipped army. The repeated failures and slow process against Ukraine has dispelled that notion. If Putin's government cannot even handle the nuts and bolts of infantry logistics, air superiority, tanks and other mechanized units; then maybe his strategic forces are equally laughable. Maybe his analysts were so afraid of giving honest critiques and feedback, that his hypersonic missiles and standby autonomous nuclear torpedoes are not actually ready to be deployed anymore than ours are. (China's are ready, that has been demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt.)
Regardless, Ukraine will lose in a battle of attrition, and Putin might not lose an extended occupation. So many Ukrainians are leaving, they may not care about leaving a failed post-Soviet state like Ukraine. If the refugee host nations put them up well enough, they may settle in and decide they like it there.
Estonia needs to STFU. They are next on Putin's shit list, maybe just after Finland. Although they produce some sexy women in the Baltics, I don't want to be dragged into a NATO-Russia war for them.
It's possible that some Ukrainians will find happier homes outside of Ukraine, but I don't believe that will neuter a long-term insurgency. I know folks in business as well as former military who have commented that Ukrainians are generally very patriotic about being Ukrainian. Also, a lot of those 14 to 17 year-old refugees will reach fighting age sooner rather than later, and they're the ones who may be the most fervent about fighting for their homeland. And, yes, I do believe it could go on for that long.
A lot of people will be happier without zelensky and after russia helps with rebuilding things will quiet down.
If / when they start bombing with aircraft it's not going to take much for the Polish to decide to take a shot at them, whether they actually cross into Poland or just come close enough. And then we'll see how well defending every inch of NATO territory stands up to Putin's provocations.
But really, while Americans would take one of our planes being shot down so seriously, Turkey shot one down over Syria and Russia is still selling them surface to air missiles...
If China is smart, and they are, they will do nothing to support Russia in Ukraine.
1. Videos of the war are available to the world instantly
2. The economy is global. A country cannot survive if they are cut off from world trade and finance.
Stalin could simply cut his people off from the world and lie about everything. Putin doesn’t have that option.
Those kinda losses weren't just accepted when they invaded Afghanistan.
In Ukraine, shit's backward. Ukrainians are the ones fighting for their freedom. Putin might keep sending Russians in like he's fighting the the Nazi's, Ukraine's gonna keep killing them like they are the Nazis.
It's going to be ugly on both sides. But I doubt Ukrainians are ever going to give up, they can't just go home like the Russians... They were part of the Soviet Union 30 years ago and know better than any of us what happens when they quit fighting.

Unlike the US military, real maintenance has to be accomplished by officers because those reporting to them simply do not have the necessary skills. In this environment, gundecking of readiness reports is endemic, and Ivan is definitely paying the price now.

Col. Yury Medvedev has been confirmed to have been injured by what seems to be very legit sources.
But, Ukraine's propaganda machine is claiming to have intercepted communication between Russian forces where, apparently one of his junior officers claims to have intentionally run him the fuck over with his own tank for getting all his buddies killed.
https://www.thedailybeast.com/russian-tr…
So, ya, 10,000, not counting the wounded, which I'm just gonna assume aren't back in a shiny white hospital in Moscow via airlift in less than a day. Probably freezing in a tent until fuck knows when... Many are claiming there are staggering number of reports of frostbite (maybe even just faked or intentional, hoping it'll get them sent home?). And the captured. And last, and certainly not the least, deserters!!!!
Media is now starting to claim they've heard of special Russian troops being sent in to hunt down deserters.
As much of this might just be propaganda...
But, US and UK intelligence pretty much told us all about Russia's plans before they started. The only thing they seemed to have gotten wrong was understanding the Russians inability to move troops more effectively than boy scouts and the Ukrainians willingness and ability to kill them. The seem to not only know exactly what's going on, but have been remarkably open with much of it...
