Flynn's statement was presented in a way that suggested it was Pro-Russian.  My argument is that it isn't. It's simply re-stating a military truth that has been assumed to be correct for 70 years.   Zelinski made a suggestion that NATO pre-emptively strike Russia in order to prevent a nuclear strike.  If the assumed response to that action would itself be a nuclear strike, that seems pretty foolish.

none of this claims that Flynn is actually correct.



Flynn is an idiot and Russia isn’t being backed into a corner they are being backed into Russia.



That is *extremely* well said, sir.

Just anti-Musk disinfo. Probably from a Twitter user unhappy about losing their private echo chamber. Musk was  asked if it was true:



Vice reported it coming from Ian Bremmer and the Eurasia Group via their newsletter.

So, the truth is in there somewhere. Either the newsletter bit is a lie, Musk is lying, or Vice is wrong/ lying.

Musk denied it. Let’s see what happens next.

They seem to never have actual overhead cover.

The trenches actually will be effective though at disrupting the thunder run in humvees tactics the Ukrainians have been using. They do make a effective vehicle barrier.

This is why the people stopped building castles.

Reportedly, they're standing up units as quickly as they can fully train, supply and employ them.

Even if you gifted Ukraine 10 armored divisions worth of metal, it'd be 3-6 months before most of it made it into the fight, providing bowsers and support elements were even available to stand up that much armor at all.

The ruling parties hoped for a fast collapse of the Ukraine and back to normal with Russia.

I have noticed that now for many decades. It is just one of the little ironies of life. Sort of like "workers paradise" and other such slogans like "black lives matter". People say these things but their actions and policies seem to always be 180 degrees out of phase.

Oh I agree. In a million years I wouldnt advocate nuking someone. But, trying to imagine how this disaster ends, it's hard not to see a nuke dropped by Russia. Then a heavy conventional retaliation by NATO. Then probably more nukes by Russia. Then...

I can certainly understand Zelensky asking for a First Strike against Russia. He and his family will not be around to find out how the NATO retaliation and subsequent tit for tat turned out.

If someone with the legitimate capability and motivation was threatening to kill my family, I would strike first too.  This is a very serious threat and we will be lucky to live through it.

Whoever was in there didn't seem to have any anti armor weapons.

Both sides use trenches, it's not like trenches aren't useful. You want to be out in the open under artillery? Drone kills are cool looking and all but it's crazy to think 'regular' artillery isn't still the major player.
