So? Ukraine is a LAND war.

L-A-N-D

Huh?

Thought Putin decided to get hundreds of thousands of his men killed, in part because the need to protect his Black Sea fleet and naval facilities in Crimea? How did that work out?

Talk with a Russian recently? The few I have are not happy. They ain’t laughing at us. Let’s put it that way. Most Chinese in America are embarrassed or simply get their news from the CCP and think everything is good.

Everything can be manipulated, but why do so many people want to come here? My Canadian BIL cannot even get citizenship married to an American. I have zero interest in even visiting Russia or China yet that all will move here if given the chance and had the $$.

MacGregor is maybe one the dumbest people I’ve heard. Let me know when your friends and family move to Russia or China because America is so bad. I’ll wait. This is one of the most laughable things I’ve read in a while. This guy is losing it upstairs. A barking dog is right more than this guy.

You call that an argument? This is an ad hominem attack against Douglas Macgregor and you are admitting in other words that you cannot reply to Douglas Macgregor's arguments.

Thank you for the feedback.

I mean has anyone watched any video since the war started that he was on? Like actually watched and listened to it? The guy is a dip shit beyond belief. He's looking to get a media contract because his pension wasn't paying him enough to probably suck off little boys. I don't know how people can quote a guy that's been wrong for two years.

We all know Ukraine will "lose" in the end. Russia ain't getting what it wants for 2 years and has been embarrassed. I honestly think the Ukrainians are dumb enough to keep this going for another decade. I don't think McGregor understands this. You don't need to be a blowhard general to understand this. Just know Eastern Europeans. He's an idiot that doesn't understand their mindset. McGregor has zero inside information. Nothing. It's hysterical.

But yes, Ukraine will lose the land after stubborn Ukrainians wave the white flag. Russia has too many men. Which they're losing. The women are leaving. Both countries are fucked for a long time and McGregor for some reason has no understanding of any of this. Again, he's an idiot.

So is Russia. There’s no winner in this. We can talk about casualties and military BS. What are the women doing? They’re leaving both countries. There’s going to be a lost generation in both countries. They’re fucked for the rest of our lifetimes. Russia/USSR never recovered from WWII. Oligarchs got their cash but the region has been a shit hole since I’ve been alive. And the trend continues…

WookieMan says

Russia is not fucked from this war. It will win it.

Russia is fucked demographically. And that was the case war or no war.

Ukraine is totally fucked.

WookieMan says

"So is Russia. There’s no winner in this."

No. Russia defeated the US and NATO in Ukraine and Russia right now controls Eastern Ukraine and the Crimea. Most important,
military defeats, despite neoCon arrogance, have consequences. And one such consequence, in my thinking, is the collapse of NATO.
Besides, Ukraine lost over 500,000 soldiers and they are finished - their famous counteroffensive collapsed before it even started.

Look, it's essentially this:

Neocons, most of whom are descended from victims of pogroms under the RUSSIAN EMPIRE, sense an opportunity to kill Russia by any means to satisfy their blood libel/vendetta, yadda, yadda.

These fucks are trying to drag the New World into Old World arguments. FUCK!!!

Let the Old World immolate itself with Musselman rapefugees. We have a clean slate, but some globohomo fucks want to convince us otherwise (guess the ethnicity - still holding a grudge?)

The_Deplorable says

This would make you happy - no?

And what has Russia won at this stage? Russia lost major naval bases and assets in Crimea and Ukraine's grain shipments through the Black Sea are at record levels. Russia was already quasi-occupying much of the Donbass before the war and now have over 300,000 dead and wounded without much to show for it other than destroyed gas pipelines to Western Europe, couple brand new NATO members on their borders and the EU increasing their military budgets.

There is no quantifiable way to claim Russia is better off economically, militarily or strategically today than before they decided to invade Ukraine.

US to change strategy on Ukraine – WaPo

The Biden administration has reportedly shifted focus to defensive tactics and will no longer help Kiev recapture lost territory

The US is working on a new strategy for Ukraine that would mark a departure, away from the offensives of 2023 and now toward frontline defense, the Washington Post has reported. The supposed adjustments come in response to Kiev’s failed counteroffensive last year, the newspaper added.

In its article on Friday, the newspaper quoted a senior White House official explaining that “it will be difficult for [Ukrainian forces] to try to mount the same kind of major push on all fronts that they tried to do last year.” In light of this, the hope is now much less ambitious – to ensure that Kiev does not lose any more ground to Moscow, the unnamed staffer told reporters.

This, however, does not mean that Ukraine’s military will just sit in their trenches, with what is described as a “swapping of territory” still likely in small cities and villages, the source told the WaPo.

Late last month, Politico reported similarly, of a realization that a “total victory” for Ukraine was unlikely...

zzyzzx says

I figure it's either that or we are intentionally limiting weapons system to Ukraine due to supply constraints on the consumables (ammunition). It's not like Russia is doing any better in that department. They can't make stuff either and have to beg North Korea for stuff. At least north Koreans have food and oil now.

I don't know why you think they are "begging".

Russia runs a war as cost effectively as possible. The US does the opposite. The reason the US spends more on their military than any other CONTINENT does, is not because the US has the best military, it's because the US military will happily purchase a nail for $10. Why shouldn't they? They don't pay for it, YOU DO.

What happened to Russia getting it's ass kicked in the 'summer offensive'? Crimea was supposed to be taken back by now!

You can't take back territory by being defensive.
