If you can watch this and still tell me that Ukraine deserves our debt...then I feel sorry for your mother.

Cliff notes for someone that doesn’t have 4 hours to watch this?

People say no time to watch and then will waste four of the next hours on trivial nothingness.

OP....Ukraine had an estimated 3-7 million people starved to death by Russians less than 100 years ago. give Russia the opportunity and they would starve more Ukrainians and move ethnic Russians into the empty homes. maybe you should read a few history books. nobody helped them back then and no foreign army is helping them now.

Quoted: Guess you didn't watch. ETA: It's not the people...it's the leadership. View Quote I'm not wasting 4 hours on that. Ukraine is close to pushing the russians back to their 2014 lines, and has pretty much been kicking their asses since August. Russia is going to lose. Our leaders are no better than theirs, probably worse. |

Because I jumped around and landed on one bit where a guy was talking about how after 2014 Ukraine should have increased its defense spending, but didn’t. A quick google search shows that from 2014 onward, their defense spending about doubled. On to your point of leadership vs the people, that seems to boil down to the idea that because Ukraine has a lot of Russian sympathizers in government means that the people should be forsaken? Also, maybe if you want to engage with people and get them to put in the time to watch a multi hour video, you shouldn’t have opened the thread with insults. It’s not only off putting, but advertises that you aren’t worth the time. |

Ukraine has been killing tens of thousands of Russians that invaded their nation, decimating their armor and air capabilities, and regaining more and more of their territory every day. How the absolute FUCK is that "not defending themselves" |

View Quote And 80 years ago Germany murdered millions in the camps an the Japanese attacked the US and marched thousands to their deaths in Bataan. Your point is? Speaking of reading history. The Ukraine was not a nation for a thousand years—from the fall of the Kievian Rus in the 9th century until 1917 there was no such thing as a Ukrainian nation. Crimea was never part of Ukraine until 1954. Before that it was Russian and before 1783 it was Ottoman. So if we’re are going to go with the “read history” thing, you’ve got to read ALL of it, not just the parts that support your limited understanding |

So the complaint is
- Ukraine should have had more foresight that Russia was a big asshole? - They were not as fast to react as the Us millitary. - Ukraine should go on the offence more becuase if America was invaded the US would be balls to the wall fighting(*). ......... - I stopped watching becuase it's pretty much not even relevant or at the very least not correctly weighing the gained value vs lost value of sent weapons systems. (*) Probably correct but that would be purly hypothetical in a millitary sense given US capabilities. |

They did what should have happened when trump took office. The response to the house cleaning was the initial invasion that obammy let happen. Remember I will be more flexible after the election? On the positive side, their military has been using the western military model, and have been training to that doctrine, instead of the old soviet model. They have been forming an nco corps, learning tactics, and putting decision making in the same hands on the battlefield that the west uses. It is proving quite effective using the old stuff we had in storage. Russia is throwing bodies into the line within a month of dragging them off the street. Ukraine held on with their existing troops while they spent 4+ months properly training troops by western instructors, and now have classes graduating weekly to add to the mix, and have the luxury of rotation. This is the reason they will win as long as they have the means. They have a pipeline of trained personnel vs the meat targets from russia. Russia has stripped the military of it's training corps and sent them to the line. Same with the nuke troops. They have been sending anyone trained at anything into the mix. They are fucking stupid. |

I don't watch any network news or political opinion programs. What I find amusing and sad is all the retards who were good with wasting 20 fucking years with a bunch of inbred goat fucking idiots who hated us, and lose their mind when a country who actually embraces self determination and western values asks for help to fuck up a major enemy. They are fucking up russia with 25yo munitions and delivery systems. They are using viet nam era apc's as well. They are more than happy to fuck up russia with whatever we send, new or old. |
