8 thou to go to beat the US losses in Nam
Hang on, I thought the total Russian dead in Ukraine was somewhere in the vicinity of 300,000? These numbers keep changing, and not in a reliable way.
Good job Ukraine !
Yep, 58,220 US in Vietnam. No sympathy for Russian invaders from me.
The BBC and “Mediazona” confirms................
Mediazona set up for the Ukraine war reporting.....

Am I wrong to infer that you agree with the killing of 58k U.S. soldiers in Vietnam because the U.S. invaded Vietnam?

You would be wrong
And we did not invade S. Vietnam.
Agreed
Wait, it sounds like you buy the communist narrative. The U.S. intervened in a civil war, on one of the sides.
Still waiting for Ukraine losses.
a very conservative estimate, the actual number is likely over 130,000 dead, as casualties are well past 456,000.
Not what I was intending to imply at all. My point was simple and its not original here on FR. We lost 58,000 supporting S. Vietnam and the bulk of the losses were a result of Soviet supplying of arms to communist N. Vietnam. That was over a decade or more. The russians have lost 50k plus in two years of their ‘special military op’ (invasion) of Ukraine and they bitch about US or NATO support. Russia can piss up a rope.
Now not to get all wound up in the Zeeper vs Putinista waste of time argument, my support of the Ukraine is not to say I support corrupt government anywhere, not here in the US, not in Ukraine, and not in Russia. I also know we have problems here at home that need to be dealt with (borders, spending, etc) But evil, unopposed, begets evil. So I do support efforts to make this invasion by russia as painful as possible for russia for as long as they are there.
You dont have to wait, they are high. You would expect them to be given the disparity of force. Ukraine was, and remains, the underdog in this conflict (that they did not initiate).
Special deal for friends of RIck, 39,375 deaths. Whatever the number it’s just the BBC branch of MI-6 spouting propaganda. How about some more COVID/Trump Russia conspiracy/no widespread voter fraud propaganda.
shilling alert
OOh, the BBC!! The northern office of Hamas, apparently. Yeah, accept those numbers.
