imagine if the US really tried against Russia first, this would have been over last year. second, the world would now know Russia was no nuclear power. at least a real one nuclear power. third, China would never speak of Tawain again.

Did the Western attackers in Iraq or Afghanistan claim this 3:1 attacker:defender ratio of KIA?Originally posted by Dinner View Post
Do you even realize that the attacker taking three KIA for every one defender KIA has been a pretty rock solid average from WW2 onward? This means Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine is falling right into the well known average.
But feel free to tell yourself whatever lies you need to cope.

I might have originally expected that kind of ratio in Russia's favor. Russia had enormous advantages. However, like we've discussed before, now that we've seen Russia find it necessary to retreat from Kyiv, retreat from Kharkiv, retreat from Kherson, and take several months to seize Bhakmut as well as find much heavier Russian equipment losses than Ukraine on photograpic evidence sites like Oryx, it's hard to accept any numbers as plausible that give a ratio heavily in Russia's favor. How could Ukraine have pulled those successes off while bleeding heavier losses than the Russians?Originally posted by Serb View Post
18K vs. 257K is average in your universe?

No because there was virtually no resistance to the initial invasion. They literally just fell apart and ran away.Originally posted by Geronimo View Post

I think it is clear to any impartial observer that Russia was completely unprepared for the operation they began. Clearly they have experienced extremely heavy losses in personnel and equipment. Since their population was not prepared for this possibility in advance, it is likely that they have resorted to outright lies to keep the populace from questioning Putin's strategy. Serb, being within the confines of the sphere of influence of State propaganda AND being a Patriot, easily consume and regurgitate these falsehoods with the certainty of truth. I suspect that Serb, also being fairly intelligent, does have his questions about what is going on but would never raise them with us.Originally posted by Geronimo View Post

Not to mention a pretty effective precision bombing campaign on the few legitimate military formations in place prior to troops moving in.Originally posted by Dinner View Post
