I'm not quite as cynical as to say the *only* reason this is continuing is to drain Russia and the west doesn't give a fuck about Ukrainians whatsoever, but forcing Russia to expend a bunch of hardware is definitely a part of this. Thing is, most of their hardware's old and crap anyway, they've...

10 injured sure does sound 'huge'. *SarcasmBot9000 explodes*

Considering you're advocating against a "permanently defensive" one, it seemed on point to call out the folly of the opposite, too. In any case, unless we want to go full-on WWIII over Ukraine on principle and kill half the planet, Russia's winning in one form or another in Ukraine. It is what...

Nothing good's going to come from a "permanently aggressive" stance, either. Someone said something smart at the very start of this war, forget who: "the only thing more dangerous than Russia winning this, is Russia losing". They're getting Crimea, they're getting the Donbass, maybe a little...

Heh, yeah. I still think she's going to eke out a win here (just), but yup, the last thing Kamala needed was Grampa Joe calling half the country trash Hillary-style in the last week. It's not going to move the needle any, there's no such thing as undecided voters in this thing, but a wild...

Heh. Always loved the look of those crazy compact little WWI tanks. And then the other end of the scale, the total behemoths. The French should send these puppies over to help out Zelensky, retro battle 2024! https://i.redd.it/xq6gs6x8wdk21.png Then the Russians counter again with this...

Seems like the Rooskies are deploying some WWII T-34s to the western part of Russia. :D :eek: ...T-34s. I wouldn't take too seriously anyone claiming they're getting desperate and are actually intending on going up against Leopards & Abrams with these things, that doesn't seem like it'd be...

That's pretty awesome, makes a lot of sense strategically. Air combat's changing so much this early part of the century, it's pretty freaky territory with all these unmanned wingmen and such. You've gotta figure Rooskie-tech SAMs from the 60s & 70s aren't going to hold up too well if this...

Even the handful that the Hezbollah have taken out doesn't mean a lot in the macro sense. As they say with their fighters, plenty more where those came from, the outcome of the conflict is on the side of the guys with the Merkavas.

Iran vows to "respond firmly" to the Israeli strike, think that's the most forceful they've been rhetorically since. Really, really fuckin' hope they do, the Israelis need the excuse. Let's have this thing out and end it, enough of the shadowboxing.

Most countries pretty-much have to, at least until the hippies cave and let everyone lean hardcore into nuclear. As long as we're fucking about with windmills & solar & lithium batteries, oil & coal will be a big part of the pie, and a sizeable chunk of the west's source of that is the Rooskies.

I *love* that "Sinwar lives rent-free in every Zionist's head" social media post up there. Like...yeah. He does. As an example of what's possible with a little perserverance in hunting down maniacal psychopaths, you always get them eventually, they're always cowering in a hole like Saddam...

"Evil" with NK probably gets thrown around more due to the, you know, intentional starvation of many many millions of their own people, run by a guy who shoots his uncle with anti-air cannons, but hey. I'm old-fashioned that way.

Uhh...yeah? They're far more powerful than you? Obviously? As for Scott's "the 'Hebrew media'" schtick, well, it's *the media in general* in overwhelming consensus, but hey, details and facts I guess. Literal video of the cowardly fuck fleeing into the tunnels with metadata of Oct 7th, run...

Brzezinski was always more-or-less a moron in the first place, and this is a pretty pertinent example too. There were more Germans than Americans & Brits killed in WWII, too. Nobody in their right mind would consider the Allies the instigators. Casualty numbers are *a* data point to consider...

There's...literally footage of the man & his family leaving their home into the tunnels, Sinwar personally carrying the TVs & armchairs & household conveniences, man. Stop. The only reason he resisted right at the end is he got caught out in the open running from hidey-hole to hidey-hole...

Bahaha @ the "Sinwar fought bravely with a stick" thing. Yeah dude, after fleeing immediately on Oct 7 leaving his men to fight, whilst getting himself & his own safely into the tunnel-iest of tunnels to sit around safely for almost a year. There's footage of his going-to-ground, taking all of...

I mean, 2034 doesn't even seem *that far off* for an undertaking of this magnitude. I don't mind the timeframe so much, a decade out, whatever, if that's what it takes that's what it takes. I just can't personally get my head around how these things would be better served (from an American...

Absolutely what should have happened, frankly. And yeah, Ripley, gotta love all these Democrat-types salivating for some supposed physical confrontation/righteous violence. Like...beyond being immature & dumb, come on guys, between the hipster type dude and the hillbilly, I'm betting on the...

Yeah, I've kinda thought that way from the start. Like, no doubt we need better subs. But aren't these things going to be better in US hands than ours if any conflict breaks out anyway, considering our dumbass "no nuclear weapons for us!" stance? We do need something better than our diesel...
