In fact about 40% of the mobilized ended up anywhere near Ukraine, most for rear duties. Most have been sent home and replaced by the regulars at this point.

That is the most stupid and dangerous nonsense I’ve heard in a while. Unfortunately, most of the traitors and dipshits running this catastrophe from DC have no more clue than you do.

Right now the Russian military is showing the world that they can't even hold their own against Ukraine, a much smaller nation.

In the next Uke propo thread you will be telling US all how Russia is poised to take over the world. Neocons have zero credibility.

It’s out of the playbook, though not entirely wrong about our increasing decrepit moral standings as a nation and much of our leadership both civilian and military, milley comes to mind, their criticisms are intended to deflect, divide, and cause discourse.

None of which answers the question why couldn’t the “2nd” largest military in the world handle Ukraine and a few western weapons

Their desperation is amazing, it is the bully who finally gets stood up too and is shown to be not near as big and bad as they projected

Loss of s-400s, submarine, ships, 40% of “undefeatable “ T-90s…. But they have lots of IS-2s they can bring up….

Let them talk

Hopefully the missing pieces of atacms and airpower will appear soon and then we can here about their great victory and more good will gestures

The S-400 crews and the dry docks of Crimea might question the EW capabilities, just a little

Nice spin, ah sure those ships will never see service again, and the dry docks are a total loss, you have seen the images, you know the truth, but carry on I find it amusing

The Russians are drunk and corrupt. We are woke but technologically advanced. For now, we have the edge.

More words of greatness from a "know-nothing" keyboard warrior.

Wonder if he has looked into our collective mirror. Crack and fentanyl every way you turn (but no vodka), tent cities on every big city street corner, and then, of course, 10% for the big guy who led us into another black-hole military war -- that we're losing (like the others).

And the technology superior advanced part, who launched the first orbital satellite, produced the first hypersonic missile, and how long did we pay the Ruskies to put us in space because we couldn't?

Sure, we're way ahead:-).

Smart. Real Smart!

There is no scenario where strat nukes will be used as a first strike. Give one. It is no win. Maybe some tac nukes but I doubt that.

If Russia won’t use nukes ( and end the war in 5 minutes ) against an adversary (Ukraine) that has none, can’t reraliate then -> WHY WOULD ANY NATION USE THEM AGAINST A FOE THAT COULD?

Again answer these basic questions:

1. Could Russia use nukes and end the war in 5 minutes?
2. Why doesn’t Russia do that?

You go far, far beyond merely shilling for the warmongering globalists. Just think of how your take on MAD, balance of power, every aspect of global foreign relations since 1950 makes fools of every national leader in every country for 70 years. The trillions and trillions spent trying to deter a nuclear war nothing but a fool’s errand. You, and empty headed MIC stooges like the one in Central Virginia will get us all killed. Your stupidity is frightening beyond description because most of your warmongering pervo globalist DC fellow travelers agree with you as they recklessly race to blunder us into Armageddon.

Their thought process is simple. There has never been a nuclear war therefor there will never be a nuclear war. Ipso facto.

What war do you speak of? If you are talking about the SMO in Ukraine neither country involved has declared war. Why is that?

I already have. Since there is no war, why would Russia use nukes?

Did you know that the U.S. has not fought a war since 1945? Why did’t they use nukes in Korea? Vietnam? Iraq? Afghanistan? Or even dozens of other countries?

More proof why nukes WILL NEVER BE USED in a war. Ever.
