I believe every inch of Ukrainian soil is worth it. This is the mentality that I really, really hope Ukraine doesn't subscribe to. Holding disadvantageous ground and letting good units get chewed up under the guise of "every inch of Ukrainian soil is worth it" isn't a winning strategy. Ukraine shouldn't be eager to throw its better units into meat grinders for ground that largely doesn't matter and can likely be retaken at a later date (as the Kharkiv counter offensive demonstrated). Over the long term, that'll lead to a serious decline in the quality of the Ukrainian military with little to show for it, because lots of their experienced troops will have become casualties in the process of defending irrelevant ground and won't be around to train up/lead the new soldiers Ukraine has brought into the fold since the invasion. Are you ok ending this war with Ukraine coming out with less territory than they started with?. They are not. So at some point every inch will have to be worth risking lives for. No, I'm not, and I don't think you understand what I said at all. My point is that Ukraine shouldn't defend bad positions like Severodonetsk, shouldn't be afraid to retreat to superior positions when needed, and shouldn't let Russia grind up their best units over ground that means nothing and can likely be retaken later in future offensives, as Kharkiv showed. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Saltwater-Hillbilly: Concur. It is a nice meme, but when you compare actual combat records, not so much. I believe that more Leopards have been total write-offs due to battle damage than Abrams. Definitely a lot more Leos than Challengers have been wrecked. I have a feeling that the idea ""we don't want Leo's to get killed unless Abrams are also dying" will backfire in a big way, as my bet is that M1s are far easier to maintain in combat conditions at the unit level than the Leo, and the Challengers being sent will probably put the Leos to shame regarding crew survivability.. Google “al-bab” The meme was obviously a joke, though I admit too subtle and not obvious enough (I did not create it). |

Attacks on orcs in the Kherson region.
Hacksaw The location of the equipment: six fuel trucks, two self-propelled guns, two tanks, an armored personnel carrier, an armored personnel carrier were burned. Oleshki Cafe "Edem", Officers were covered when they held a meeting there. The Russian officer corps has shrunk, we will provide accurate information on the number later. Coincidentally, during the officer's "lunch" there was an approach to the target about a kilometer from "Eden" and it was thought that they would escape. But they heroically continued their last meetings until they waited for them to fly. The information has been verified by monitoring groups. That is, true. send news to @hueviy_kherson_Bot https://t.me/hueviyherson/33468 |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By iggy1337: A new summation of GD's favorite "The Left Lens" hosted by some commie shitbird and America hating Americans in the form of Dan Kovalik (never heard of him) and Scott Ritter. Don't do Commie drugs you might want to watch Lazer Pig's wrapup of the Gonzalo Lira round table instead. Dan Kovalik: - Russia is genuine about peace. - Boris Johnson forced Ukraine not to accept a reasonable peace deal that only required Ukraine to be disarmed and ceade a shit ton of territory. - "I was just in Donets and people are happy the Russian are there".  - People of Donets wanted the Russians there and the Russian Communist party wanted to go in earlier. - Putin is very restrained and "Russia could just take the Donbas like that" but didn't want to because borther Slavs but now forced to act because of cease fire violations. - Russia was also forced to act because Ukraine was massing troops at the border and was scarred Ukraine was going to invade Russia. - Didn't wan to wait for the Nazis to invade but really acted reluctantly. - Russia going slow because they are so carefull and didn't wan to attack Kiev (but could have destroyed it easily, not like evil USA with shock and awe. - West is evil, US is evil and wanted war fighting to the last Ukrainian. - Americans ignorant, people of Donbas/Russia cultured. Scott Ritter: - US promised they wouldn't expand NATO. - All America does is lie. Russia warned US not to let Ukraine in to NATO. - NAZI Coup in Kiev by CIA to carry out genocide on Russians. - NATO wanted a proxy war with Russia. - Russia not violating international law because replublics declared indipendence and entered security agreement with Russia so it's not a civil war[*] - Threat from Ukraine was so imminent that Russia had to invade. - Russia has done nothing but follow international law. - NATO just wanted to attack Russia - REEE Yogoslavia. - There is no chance in hell that Russia will stop uless there is unconditional surrender by NATO and Ukraine - NATO is deafeated wil dictate terms so the Russian sphere of of influence is protected. - Russia can easily take on US armed forces in Europe, they will just kill them. The USA airforce sucks and the Russia's most lethal air defnce system in history will shoot them all down. - America would lose it's airforce on day because Russia stronk. Was just going to comment on this and similar issues. Bad tales and Russian support is not limited to certain elements. I see so many comments here about all these baddie “conservatives” who are rabid anti-Ukraine, but I mainly have seen only fringe elements (so far right they are left, and far left wingers) with such outlooks. Most sensible people not absorbing bad sources can reason out who is the aggrieved and who is the aggressor. Definitely a concerted effort to paint a narrative with some… not surprisingly political operatives never sleep. |
