Those loses on a modern battlefield are staggering. Almost 5,000 KIA in a week. Can you imagine the US press and the public if we suffered numbers like that during OIF/OEF? I seem to recall the word "quagmire" being thrown around for a lot less. |

My question at this point is not if Ukraine will win this war....but after they drive Russia out of Ukraine, what kind of pressure can they put on Russia
to sent back the people of Ukraine that were taken and sent to Russia? Will Ukraine be able to accept a peace where Ukraine people are still in prison camps in Russia? How can they rescue those people? Starship Troopers: "Are 1000 prisoners of war enough to start or resume a war that might kill millions of innocent people?" "Yes, of course." "How about one?" "Uhh....Yes." "Why? Aren't you implying that taking the same action for one person as for 1000 is the same as sayings one potato has the same value as a thousand?" "Men are not potatoes." AoD |

Interesting. I saw this posted on Reddit a little while ago, and the post claimed it was a Ukrainian column getting lit up. Yea, that's what Russians do when there's no watermarks in the video, however, they geolocated it on Twitter to:
The units are not using Ukrainian markings and they come from a known Russian position. |

That was a pretty epic close range tank kill. Wow!! Holy crap! It looks like that other tank that came into the frame may have even been pointing in the direction of the shooter. Looks like a real monkey knife fight at this point. Slava Ukraini! |

Hell no!! That doesn't work; once Ukraine takes back a village and territory they do automatic background checks on all subjects! Birth certificates, passports, etc, proof of residency.

I swear to god, if american southern boys are there with the foreign legion the russians might find out how comfortable we are at hunting in a swamp. There are guys who camouflage surf boards to use as a table for their shotguns and gear. You southern boys stay out in that shit for a couple weeks/months before you get rotated back for a breather? Fuck no, lol anyone that tells you otherwise is full of shit..hahaha. stay out all day being wet and cold?? Hell yea!! But stay in a trench for 30 days straight soaking wet and freezing and getting shot at?? Fuck no!!! |

So not only a mechanized infantry BTG but ALSO an entire Artillery Battalion a day at these numbers. |

I've watched him before. I think he's at least partially why a lot of those YTers I do follow (who have smaller channels) have some bad/misinformed takes on this war. His problem is he just sounds stupid and low information in general on most things, even if it actually is the correct position. Trying to think of a good Leftist/Liberal analogue but there's so many it's frankly hard to pick. I've never been a fan of his. "I'm not rooting for anyone over there. But Ukraine is evil!
