Russia & Ukraine

[gwb-trading]

Why should you have all of the fun? It is your choice after all to place me on ignore, so far you have chosen not to, why is that?

Mocking vatnik idiots by providing the actual facts gives me great joy. Isn't time for you to take your copium dose?

Looks like Russia's using some brutal tactics to take places like Bakhmut . They push lower grade troops forward as cannon fodder against dug in defenders so they expose their positions. Then the troops behind can identify and engage the dug in defending Ukr's .

The British used a similar tactic in Afghanistan but without the high casualty rates obviously. Infantry went out on patrols to attract the enemy . The patrol would start moving out and the Taliban would engage . Unfortunately for the Taliban , the SAS come in behind and take them out .

Your forgot to mention they arm the cannon fodder troops with sticks.

And the line of armed Russians shooting anyone who comes back.

He said something the glitch shows me, I actually don't know what and I'm not tempted to click reply and see. I swear Baron never fixes that to keep things mixed up but I am above all of that.

Here is an interesting bit on moral injury in medicine which overlaps well with what Ukraine fighters and people are experiencing. Published in earlier 2019 so pre-pandemic.

I can't understand
Russians 1. Low moral 2. Sticks as weapon. 3. Cannon fodder. Not trained at all. Alcoholics and convicts. 4 zero intelligence

Ukrainians 1. Extremely high moral. 2 super duper western weapon. 3. Losses extremely small. Super training by American and British . 4 super intelligence.

Still somehow Ukrainians losing Bakhmut. Before that lost Soledar





. Low

Wow, what an achievement after a year of invasion for the mighty Russians.

What a great military superpower.

Russians always do things the dumb way, so loss of life during wars has always been high. The issue is that they have a lot of nukes and if they were to lose on the battlefield in Ukraine and if Ukraine was to push an offensive into Russia, then what do you think is likely to happen? Yes, I can probably guess the answer, Russian nukes will fly when pigs fly. If that’s how you want to play this, it’s up to you. I don’t.

Wow, quite a statement

Despite being sarcastic you openly admit whole NATO can't defeat drunk Russians convicts with sticks.

So are you dumb cause you made yourself read it?

I don't know what he said but it can't have made anything better.

Right, time to make some tea with toast and a poached egg. I still have the duplex all to myself so there is a lot of walking around in my underpants to do.
