Both Bradley's and M1's are decades old and we aren't sending them the ones with the latest gear. Hth.WestlinnDuck said:
We are scheduled to sent Ukraine brand new Bradleys and M1 tanks. We have already sent state of the art artillery systems. Why wouldn't Putin use tactical nukes if his back is against the wall? Your thread shouldn't start with, "because he won't".UW_Doog_Bot said:If yous guysm can't see the realpolitik advantage of letting Ukrainians kill Russians then there's not much else to say. The only thing better would be if China invaded the parts of Manchuria Russia holds and they started killing one another.
It's the same reason we gave stingers to the Mujahideen and it will end the same way for Russia. Maybe they'll "anex" the east of Ukraine but it's going to cost them their empire in the long run.
No real fucks from me where that line ends up as long as Russia continues to break its own back and get bled out.
Btw, we are sending the same stingers from the 70's and 80's that were still sitting on the shelves.
Putin won't use nukes. I could write a whole thread on why he won't.
We shouldn't be guaranteeing Ukrainian pensions or any number of other stupid money laundering schemes. Differentiate that between sending old military hardware set for disposal.
Tldr when two of your enemies go to war a long bloody stalemate is something you support with goods not boots.
PS This isn't the 1970s and how did Afghanistan work out for us after the commies left?
PPS There are a lot of things we shouldn't be doing but having anti-American POS that are making a fortune in Ukraine run the show, then we are funding all sorts of sh*t including Ukrainian theftocrats.
We sent them an artillery system from the 70's and 80's with none of the latest ranged systems. Himar's and by extension rocket systems are extremely old tech by US standards.
Tldr version, start a thread if you want the full version but Putin won't do anything that puts Putin 6ft under. This is not how nuclear deterence works. He isn't remotely close to losing power in Russia over this war so there's not really a corner there like you imagine.
Yeah, these people think that neutered HIMARs, Bradleys, and M1s are state of the art US tech and not Desert Storm dusty relics
Really a great litmus test for not knowing what the fuck they are talking about

Are there neo nazis in Ukraine being edgy and doing the heil Hitler? Some, sure.
There are also those on the Russian side as well:
https://www.rferl.org/a/russian-neo-nazis-fighting-ukraine/31871760.html
The Ukrainian neo Nazis were minding their own business and defending their territory. The Russian Nazis were murdering children and puppies in places like Bucha.
Ukraine is trying to purge the neo Nazis in their ranks, to their credit. I linked the article a while ago. Russia has a state sponsored mercenary group founded by Nazis and named after a Nazi.

Already knocked trillions of the US economy with the chicom crud and being positioned by the dems as the biggest economic winner in the climate change fraud as we choke of the US economy as we shut down our fossil fuel industry and skyrocket US energy prices while giving a complete pass to the Chicoms as they dramatically increase their fossil fuel usage and benefit from their control over strategic metals and the leading producer of solar panels and wind turbines.
Russia is a 1 as a threat to the US. They aren't going to invade and we have much more of their strategic economic product than they do and we could choke them out economically if we wanted to. If we sent nothing to the Ukraine at best the Russians could have fun holding it. That would be their one bite of their dream of a new Soviet Union. Their military would be exhausted from taking the Ukraine. If the Euros wanted to remain free, they could spend their money to defend it. It doesn't matter to the US. China is what matters and we should use our limited resources to deal with the Chicoms and their control over most of economy, outside of oil and gas production. This isn't 1964. It's 2023 and Russia is done. Even worse demographics than the US and nothing but oil and gas production.
This is a much more nuanced take than the garbage Throbber is spouting, so kudos.
However - Russia would have been able to take and hold Ukraine rather easily without advising and supplies from US and Nato. They would also have taken over the Stans, Moldova, Belarus, and other places and next thing you know it's now USSR 2.0 that has all the confidence in the world and much better demographics.
As I said, the line needed to be drawn in the sand somewhere. I think it's completely reasonable to have Ukraine bleed Russia of manpower and teach them that this WW2 shit is not going to be tolerated in 2023.
You're right about China, but China is watching with surprise as Russia military tech is getting its ass obliterated by old US technology.
Now, about those Ukraine bio weapons labs and corrupt money laundering....how "nuanced' does one have to be to be truthful about that?
Your black/white, Ukraine good/Russia bad has no nuance whatsoever.
The US guaranteed Ukraine protection in exchange for giving up their nukes in the 90s.
I'm glad you guys want USSR 2.0 and think that is a good idea. Fucks sake. Such incredibly small minded thinking.
Also - the Ukraine bio weapons stuff is pure Russian propaganda that you fell for. Congrats on that.
Money laundering you're right on. Ukraine is corrupt as hell. That does not give Russia free reign to go on a murderous rampage in their country.
And perhaps you need to do some research on the Azov Regiment on just whom is murdering whom.
There is absolutely 0 evidence that bioweapons were being developed in Ukraine. You fell hook, line, and sinker for that Russian BS.
Very familiar with Azov Regiment and their Neo Nazi bullshit. They absolutely deserve to be called out on that. However, Azov was hanging out in Mariupol and defending against Russian incursions since 2014. Azov isn't the aggressor in this conflict.
Additionally, Azov has been more or less purged of Nazis.
On the flip side, are you familiar with the Wagner PMC group?
Where they gain somewhere they lose in multiple areas. Where are you getting your Ukraine kicking ass info?
Info on Azov:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/ukraines-azov-battalion-looks-to-regroup-and-clean-up-image-11654453889
Info on Ukraine kicking Russia's fucking ass:
https://liveuamap.com/
Meanwhile, Russia's state sponsored mercenary group:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagner_Group#:~:text=Others say the group's name,Hitler's favorite composer).
"In 2021, the Foreign Policy report noted the origin of the name "Wagner" to be unknown.[51] Others say the group's name comes from Utkin's own call sign "Wagner", reportedly after the German composer Richard Wagner, which Utkin is said to have chosen due to his passion for the Third Reich (Wagner being Adolf Hitler's favorite composer).[79][80] As such, some believe he is a neo-Nazi,[81][82] with The Economist reporting that Utkin has several Nazi tattoos.[80]"
Why do you think we never hear about Ukraine getting their asses kicked? We only hear about how terribly the Russians are doing. Give it some thought.
When Ukraine had their victory is September it came at great cost and then they lost territory in other regions.
Are you under the impression there are people rooting for Russia here? If you are, you’re a fucking moron.
https://liveuamap.com/
absolute peanut brains
Even your guy Gen. Milley says both sides will eventually come to the table. The loss of lives for both is too great to continue much longer.
But the map! Why does Russia take territory and then leave territory to take new territory?
This conflict is like the US invading Mexico and being unable to take Mexico city.
Pathetic.
Also to not be in a flood plain under a dam that could have wiped out its forces if blown up.
You really seem to be a beacon of knowledge on this.
TYFYE
@pawz I can't emphasize this enough. You do not know what you are talking about. You are ignorant.
So far you've cited businessinsider, wikipedia, reuters, newsweek, cnbc - to name a few.
After the last six years you choose to believe their collective version of events on any major issue? Interesting choice.
Ignorance is predicated on an in/ability to be aware of other potential paradigms. And to accurately assess relative merits.
You've planted your flag in 'Putin is literally Hitler'.
It's possible, but not probable.
Hope this helps.

I tried to give you an out by ignoring it. But here we are.
Hope this helps.
Continue to ignore that post. It's glaring.

Russia is a 1 as a threat to the US. They aren't going to invade and we have much more of their strategic economic product than they do and we could choke them out economically if we wanted to. If we sent nothing to the Ukraine at best the Russians could have fun holding it. That would be their one bite of their dream of a new Soviet Union. Their military would be exhausted from taking the Ukraine. If the Euros wanted to remain free, they could spend their money to defend it. It doesn't matter to the US. China is what matters and we should use our limited resources to deal with the Chicoms and their control over most of economy, outside of oil and gas production. This isn't 1964. It's 2023 and Russia is done. Even worse demographics than the US and nothing but oil and gas production.
This is a much more nuanced take than the garbage Throbber is spouting, so kudos.
However - Russia would have been able to take and hold Ukraine rather easily without advising and supplies from US and Nato. They would also have taken over the Stans, Moldova, Belarus, and other places and next thing you know it's now USSR 2.0 that has all the confidence in the world and much better demographics.
As I said, the line needed to be drawn in the sand somewhere. I think it's completely reasonable to have Ukraine bleed Russia of manpower and teach them that this WW2 shit is not going to be tolerated in 2023.
You're right about China, but China is watching with surprise as Russia military tech is getting its ass obliterated by old US technology.
Now, about those Ukraine bio weapons labs and corrupt money laundering....how "nuanced' does one have to be to be truthful about that?
Your black/white, Ukraine good/Russia bad has no nuance whatsoever.
The US guaranteed Ukraine protection in exchange for giving up their nukes in the 90s.
I'm glad you guys want USSR 2.0 and think that is a good idea. Fucks sake. Such incredibly small minded thinking.
Also - the Ukraine bio weapons stuff is pure Russian propaganda that you fell for. Congrats on that.
Money laundering you're right on. Ukraine is corrupt as hell. That does not give Russia free reign to go on a murderous rampage in their country.
And perhaps you need to do some research on the Azov Regiment on just whom is murdering whom.
There is absolutely 0 evidence that bioweapons were being developed in Ukraine. You fell hook, line, and sinker for that Russian BS.
Very familiar with Azov Regiment and their Neo Nazi bullshit. They absolutely deserve to be called out on that. However, Azov was hanging out in Mariupol and defending against Russian incursions since 2014. Azov isn't the aggressor in this conflict.
Additionally, Azov has been more or less purged of Nazis.
On the flip side, are you familiar with the Wagner PMC group?
Where they gain somewhere they lose in multiple areas. Where are you getting your Ukraine kicking ass info?

Why do you think we never hear about Ukraine getting their asses kicked? We only hear about how terribly the Russians are doing. Give it some thought.
When Ukraine had their victory is September it came at great cost and then they lost territory in other regions.
Are you under the impression there are people rooting for Russia here? If you are, you’re a fucking moron.

Even your guy Gen. Milley says both sides will eventually come to the table. The loss of lives for both is too great to continue much longer.
But the map! Why does Russia take territory and then leave territory to take new territory?
This conflict is like the US invading Mexico and being unable to take Mexico city.
Pathetic.
Also to not be in a flood plain under a dam that could have wiped out its forces if blown up.
You really seem to be a beacon of knowledge on this.

@pawz I can't emphasize this enough. You do not know what you are talking about. You are ignorant.
So far you've cited businessinsider, wikipedia, reuters, newsweek, cnbc - to name a few.
After the last six years you choose to believe their collective version of events on any major issue? Interesting choice.
Ignorance is predicated on an in/ability to be aware of other potential paradigms. And to accurately assess relative merits.
You've planted your flag in 'Putin is literally Hitler'.
It's possible, but not probable.
Hope this helps.
Point being, Russia is not retreating to the high ground. They are getting stomped. By Ukraine of all places. -

No need to answer.

Holy fuckall.
Because you clearly said, the US blew it up. And your pals Russia, they say it is the UK.
So, you're fucking wrong. Yet again. Take the L and stay the fuck out of topics you don't know a fucking thing about.
"Russia retreated to the high ground"
LOL
So a member of NATO blew up the Nord Stream pipeline.
Feel better now?
NATO works independently of Washington DC, apparently.
