SubscribeNot really but it wasn’t as bad as now.This has been true throughout history. When HS actually taught kids, you learned about who and how wars were "financed", probably not so much anymore.
Even financing both sides....
Shdh at liberals cheering on war...
Hey, something we agree on.....who would of thunk it.....Anyone who they disagree with is a Nazi or a Liberal or (insert insult here) despite the fact that they may have 99% agreement on ideology.
or the fact that he's calling Slavs "subhuman" while defending the Ubermensch SS.But Doc....he's for sure a freakin' Nazi! You can tell by the "Heil Hitler" in his voice.
ANY aid given to Ukraine aside from helping them negotiate a ceasefire or peace treaty is tarded and goes against natural human decency prolonging a fckn nonsensical bloodbath.European support for Ukraine aid is plummeting

The poor bastards on the front suffer and die in agony... the elites and politicos profit with no repercussions or even any skin in the game really...
the globalists are using Russians and Ukrainians as test subjects because they consider them to be subhuman (White Christians). Biolabs, weapons development, and organ harvesting afterwards.Obviously abhors R&D on human test platforms.
Do you know how flawed US ballistic testing was using pig cadavers?
Zelenskys greatest gift to weapon technology is his people.
We are funding/paying/supporting the only citizenry/people capable of such an effort, so until that stops, such a movement is never going to happen.I wonder when the Ukrainians will just kill their government and end all this instead of putting up with this bullshit.
right there with the pot calling the kettle black when the leftists refer to anyone else as 'fascists.'I'm so tired of hearing people that are utterly ignorant of actual history spouting nothing but propaganda or nonsense about the WWI into the WWII era.
This young man has been doing some good videos on the subject. https://www.youtube.com/@ZoomerHistorian
Everyone calling each other "nazi" and muh nazis and ur a nazi no they're a nazi is the most unhinged, midwit-tier, retarded, vitriolic and asinine level of political discourse in human history.
A defense in depth with time to prepare is a deliberate process the Russian armed forces seem quite good at. US military leaders know this very well. Wars are what they do, and one that doesn’t kill Americans has no negatives from their point of view. The NWO is trying to bankrupt the west, but generals just want to play with their toys and ignore the rest.

Yikes…this map is very telling. Looks like those Azos boys aren’t faring too well with their summer offensive.
One thing required to defeat a deliberate defense in depth is air superiority and Ukraine definitely does not have that. A combined arms breach and breakthrough/breakout is an extremely difficult and complicated mission which very few modern armies can achieve.A defense in depth with time to prepare is a deliberate process the Russian armed forces seem quite good at.

Yup. It requires many times more investment, organization, and capabilities to overcome than it does to defend. Random meat bags with rifles waving tribal flags are not the solution.One thing required to defeat a deliberate defense in depth is air superiority and Ukraine definitely does not have that.

[Home] › [War in Ukraine] › 09/29/2023 Latest reports from Ukraine: “Slaughter zone” Rabotino-Verbovoye. APU FIRE BAG. Combat map (14 videos) |
What is happening in the area of Rabotin and Verbovoy at the moment? After 116 days of offensive, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have not approached the main defensive lines. All fighting, as in June, is concentrated around the forward security zone. Attempts by the Ukrainian army to gain a foothold in Pyatikhatki and in the Rabotino-Verbovoye sector are regularly frustrated due to heavy losses, as well as difficulties in managing and supporting the group. Why can’t the Ukrainian Armed Forces gain a foothold in the Rabotino-Verbovoye section? One of the main negative factors affecting the pace of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ offensive is the crowding of six to seven brigade elements in a relatively small space, not counting individual battalions and auxiliary units. At the moment, at least three elite brigades are concentrated in the Rabotino-Verbovoye section: the 47th Mechanized Infantry Brigade "Magura", the 46th Airmobile Brigade and reserves - units of the 82nd Specialized Airborne Brigade. Three formations of the new formation operate in the same area: the 116th, 117th and 118th mechanized brigades, with the latter serving as a source of infantry for “meat assaults”. Due to high losses, armored vehicles and aircraft of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are used to a limited extent in this area. These formations have not been trained for joint action, and the reinforcements they receive usually do not know the terrain and have problems with communication and coordination. As a result of overcrowding and management problems, Ukrainian formations are more likely to interfere with each other than to advance in a coordinated manner. Why did this happen? As a result of continuous attacks over 3.5 months, the Ukrainian Armed Forces managed to make slight progress towards Rabotin and Verbovoy. Although Ukrainian propaganda presents this as a strategic achievement, in fact Ukrainian troops are in a fire pocket and fighting in a semi-encirclement in a limited area. The Rabotinsko-Verbovsky fire bag, which the military among themselves call the “kill zone,” is visible and shot through by Russian artillery from three sides, which leads to continuous high losses in people and equipment for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

You don’t reckon it has anything to do with the defensive lines Russia built, or the fact that the Ukes are for the most part untrained conscripts, have virtually zero air defense, have had billions of aid stolen and have been donated ineffective gear?Why did Ukraine Offensive fail?
Because even I "knew" about the "Counter Offensive"
1st rule of war: Don't tell your opponent what you are doing!
"Hey Russia, we about to go all counter offensive on you and win!!!!"
<Challenge Accepted>
Looks like the Russians mined their front lines and waited for the "offensive". Once it started the Russians started falling back and the uke's thought they were kicking ass. They ran into the mine fields and the artillery started raining down. Big fucking ooops. The fact that the ukes continue to repeat it?Why did Ukraine Offensive fail?

Man you guys are sensitive.You don’t reckon it has anything to do with the defensive lines Russia built, or the fact that the Ukes are for the most part untrained conscripts, have virtually zero air defense, have had billions of aid stolen and have been donated ineffective gear?
The Uke offensive was more of a marketing move to get more funding than anything. It was called long before it started that it would fail. Ukraine is simply not equipped to win this. Why people refuse to see this is beyond me. This isn’t a pro-Russia or pro-Ukraine statement, it’s just the facts.
I can agree with most of this. The thing we don't agree on is the Russians being incompetent, although I will agree that the initial actions by them appear to have been way less that effective; to not regard them as a peer is what got us to where we are - the length of time that this conflict has gone on has given them real time to mobilize both their manufacturing and economic trade to address their weaknesses. It has also given them the same thing we have received - the ability to test weapons systems, acquire the assets of the opposition, reverse engineer and develop countermeasures. Where Russia is different than NATO is that they have mobilized far quicker for the next stage of this nightmare.Man you guys are sensitive.
There are countless examples of an inferior force defeating a superior force. However, the few examples of when you telegraph you moves to the enemy and are successful almost always are accompanied by vastly superior force attacking an isolated one.
So, in the "lets pretend for a day" I get to be supreme overlord of Ukraine. I am out resourced by my opponent and running low on supplies. I have some momentum in that I have blunted the enemies attacks. So what do I do?
I announce I am going to Counter Attack for several months. And then do exactly what I say....
Worst. Strategy. Ever.
And no doubt it was a ploy for funds or support or whatever. But to actually go through with it was beyond shockingly stupid. We all expected Ukraine to fold rather fast. Russia's military has been exposed for not being the juggernaut we thought it might be. That doesn't mean Ukraine is some super force of Israeli commandos. And even in the long haul, Russia can just out-siege them.
I was just pointing out that every armchair general in the world was not surprised at this latest development.
We have the same point, I just didn't give the Russians "credit" I guess. I mean if your enemy is going to shoot himself in the foot, go ahead and let him...so uh "good job"
<rolls eyes>
Where did I say they were incompetent (aside from trolling the hell out of the pro-Russia faction)? I said they were not a juggernaut...I can agree with most of this. The thing we don't agree on is the Russians being incompetent, although I will agree that the initial actions by them appear to have been way less that effective; to not regard them as a peer is what got us to where we are - the length of time that this conflict has gone on has given them real time to mobilize both their manufacturing and economic trade to address their weaknesses.

Where Russia is different than NATO is that they have mobilized far quicker for the next stage of this nightmare.
While the war in Ukraine has yielded nothing for Ukraine, it has created a situation where we have a new cold war and emergent trade union that will produce severe headwinds for the US and NATO for the foreseeable future and is beginning to reduce the influence of the US and the US dollar hegemony. To overlook these impacts would be myopic, foolish and prideful to the point of being potentially fatal.
At some point one would think that someone in power would realize that Russia is slow walking this conflict intentionally to gear up for a far larger war they know is coming. This gearing up involves their manufacturing base, R&D, training of soldiers based on recent combat experience, economic trade and political alliances, all while just grinding Ukraine into dust and depleting the NATO weapons stores so that any battle with Russia and its allies will be hamstrung by supply issues. It doesn't take a mental heavyweight to see what is occurring, but here we are, and it appears that NATO is in a lose-lose situation - if Ukraine loses, NATO by and large will be defanged; if NATO and Ukraine go to the negotiation table and stop the conflict then influence on the world stage is permanently lost. I would argue that this loss of influence is already baked into the cake because of the extra juice BRICS has been given because of this conflict, and as an entity BRICS has a lot of the resources the world needs to either continue to grow economically or wage war. It's a dangerous thing to underestimate an enemy, but it is a completely different thing to cause multiple countries to band together economically and ultimately militarily.
What I am saying is that this conflict extends well beyond Ukraine and the follow-on impacts are substantial. It all came about through not regarding Russia as serious on multiple levels, and it appears that at this point there is no way out of the consequences. The world is about to suffer greatly for the stupidity on all sides.
Interesting article regarding the territory gained and why Russia isn't moving forward.

Yea sure....but it takes intelligent commanders to pull it off.There are countless examples of an inferior force defeating a superior force.

It takes intelligent commanders and the will to win.Yea sure....but it takes intelligent commanders to pull it off.
A few brave soldiers are also some minor unimportant part of the equation.
Right ?
It takes intelligent commanders and the will to win.
I don't think the Taliban had anywhere near the quality of solider as the US. They just wanted it more. I don't think they had any good strategists. They just refused to quit. Being stubborn can be an asset. Going back to even the American Revolution: Our Army was laughable compared to the British, but Washington just refused to quit.
Also North Vietnamese. They had some good commanders, but their troops were no where near our troops. I think their best troops may have been equal to the average US Soliders if we are generous in terms of skill.
But it terms of will to fight? That's the key. That's why I think the longer run may (MAY) favor Ukraine because they may have more will to fight than the Russians. But if they become disillusioned, no amount of training or gear is gonna save them.
Here is an example of what I mean by economic and military alliances of BRICS. The supply chain exposure risk has begun to be realized. China doesn't have to get kinetically involved, they only have to control the material or show favoritism to those within the bloc.I can agree with most of this.

i think this is more for sympathy than seriously putting women into combat roles, but i can see them running out of cooks and such.https://www.securitywomen.org/post/...nscripted-as-the-country-faces-russian-forces
Ok, now they are affecting Ukrainian brides pool. This shit has to stop now!
This has been known for almost two months or more. They are even conscripting the mentally challenged for cannon fodder. Videos are showing them getting orders and passing medical exams. There is almost nobody left in Ukraine to fight. They are dead, are one of the few in reserve, in training in another country or have fled to avoid the war. Everyone needs to stop scrolling CNN; the situation is vastly worse than they are showing.https://www.securitywomen.org/post/...nscripted-as-the-country-faces-russian-forces

Exactly, thank you! China steals our technology IP, military and civil. China floods our institutions with bribery cash, and they fund progressive organizations in our academia, and NGOs for the purpose of creating ideological turmoil. China provides 100% of the substrate chemicals the cartels use in creating the deadly fentanyl epidemic. In 2022 over one hundred thousand Americans died from street grade fentanyl, murder anyone? At every angle China erodes and undermines our country. Is it worth it to even bring up the Wuhan COVID lab leak which lead to the entire world shutting down?But Russians are not a natural enemy of the US. China is more of an enemy than Russia.

China learned many of these fifth generation war techniques from the British, when China endured the century of humiliation under British rule, however they have aimed their animus and revenge at the very country that has made them wealthy. Chinas hatred for America is not just misplaced but disgustingly ungrateful.
And yet here we are, thirty years since the fall of the Soviet Union and we can't get it out of our tiny little brains... "Russia...Russia...Russia!" talk about misplaced animus.
