War in Ukraine

[Vol737]

I can't fathom a scenario where the U.S. started a war with Mexico and two and a half years later the U.S. military only a few hundred miles in, no air superiority, our Navy getting hammered and then Mexico bullying its way up to San Antonio and retaking land up to the Alamo.

Are these clowns still in here propping up Russia?

Yeah, one tried smacking me around for saying the US would roll Russia in a convention war within several weeks. I guess I should have asked if they knew more than the guys I work with (which is where my info comes from) coming off active duty or still in the reserves that have seen combat action, worked at the Pentagon, may have been intel officers along the way and have far more insight than they do.

Yet another example of just what trash the Russian “justice” system is. Dang I really miss the “Butwhatabout…” stupidity deflections though.

The goal was never to hold land in Afghanistan, it was regime change. We succeeded in regime change but hated the results. We were never beat in Afghanistan, we just no longer justified the expense in man and treasure. It was never worth it.

The goals was to spend as much money as possible. That is it. Regards, its in the scorebook. The issue is, none of this is easy... unless one is comparing it to a video game.

Your statement was that we were beat on battlefield by a bunch of goat herders. Or at least that's what you implied. It's an insult to our military as well as patently false.

You can argue the mission was flawed but the military wasn't beaten.

If our military performed as poorly as Russia's has, particularly during this invasion the country would be calling for the presidents head........ And for good reason.

Oh no, the fearsome Russian brigade riding underpowered motorcycles. How will Ukraine manage that?

 

[evillawyer]

Or you could, you know, just scream "Uncle," get the **** out of Ukraine, and go home.

The U.S. lost, you can cope or not cope its up to you but yes they lost to bunch of goatherders.... no funds, not really, no logistics, no real supplies or barely any, limited training if any at all, and live in caves.... certainly no F-15s as your great Commander in Chief said would be needed to beat the U.S. government.

There is no argument, you are the one tap dancing. The U.S. lost.

Nobody is going to be calling for the President's head, the President doesn't even know where his own head is.

Lol, we lost ~1800 soldiers to enemy action in 20 years of camping out in Afghanistan, doing whatever we wanted.

We could have sat their until the cave-dwellers died of old age if we'd chosen to do so.

These are facts that some people with an agenda refuse to acknowledge.

More facts ^^^^

Eddie, what are your thoughts?

We couldn't make the Afghans form a national identity that could sustain a government without us, but that had nothing to with the performance of our military.

Exactly, the military was never beat. The strategists were.

We haven’t even begun to nation build in Ukraine, that bill is still yet to come.

There isn't anything to acknowledge, the U.S. lost. There is no argument. No different than Vietnam.

Does that mean you have changed your stance and Russia is currently losing the war against Ukraine?
