“The destruction of Mariupol was not inevitable. With adequate armor and artillery, Ukraine could have attacked and broken the siege; with more airpower, Ukraine could have blown apart and run off the besieging Russian forces; with more detailed and timely U.S.-provided intelligence, “

And if Steiner’s detachment could make that counterattack As Der Fuhrer has ordered!

America’s Benevolent Bombing of Serbia

‘Twenty years ago, President Bill Clinton commenced bombing Serbia in the name of human rights, justice, and ethnic tolerance. Approximately 1,500 Serb civilians were killed by NATO bombing in one of the biggest sham morality plays of the modern era. As British professor Philip Hammond recently noted, the 78-day bombing campaign “was not a purely military operation: NATO also destroyed what it called ‘dual-use’ targets, such as factories, city bridges, and even the main television building in downtown Belgrade, in an attempt to terrorise the country into surrender.”

...

‘Clinton remains a hero in Kosovo, and there is an 11-foot statue of him standing in the capitol, Pristina, on Bill Clinton Boulevard. A commentator in the United Kingdom’s Guardian newspaper noted that the statue showed Clinton “with a left hand raised, a typical gesture of a leader greeting the masses. In his right hand he is holding documents engraved with the date when NATO started the bombardment of Serbia, 24 March 1999.” ‘

To: drop 50 and fire for effect
Wesley Clark was fired because he was recklessly confronting the Russians and others outside the scope of his orders. He also had a reputation as a jackass, so nobody felt like speaking up for him to the Secretary of Defense.

IIRC, Clark was the Fort Hood Commander that loaned the APC (tank) to Janet Reno to kill those people at Waco.

I’m hopeful.

But I am not optimistic.

And their “feared” air force has been a total non-player in this war. Putin’s biggest sin is that he’s shown the world just how weak and decayed his military is. I figured that was the unforgiveable sin as a Russian premier and the Politburo would’ve taken him out by now (put him in Siberia, eventually shoot him, and tell the world that his cancer finally got him).
