Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff says Russia has 'lost' war in UkraineRussia has "lost" its war in Ukraine, according to a top U.S. defense official, speaking ten days ahead of the one-year anniversary of their invasion. Gen. Mark Milley's comments, which came on Tuesday, occurred after he and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin met with defense leaders from roughly fifty countries in the ninth iteration of the Defense Contact Group in Brussels, which meets monthly to discuss Ukraine's latest needs to combat Russian aggression. link |

Videos show Russians losing dozens of armored vehicles in Ukrainian ambush Indeed. But Putin's Russia is hanging in there, perhaps motivated by regime survival if nothing else. And you can lose on the Battlefield many times and still win the War. I would have imagined that the days of massed "Urrahh!!" charges and similar tactics would be obsolete and unsustainable, yet Russia persists. I would have thought that with high AFV and Helicopter losses ongoing, Russia would cease -- but yet Russia persists. Is this further sustainable? Dunno, the "short war" has lasted a full year, and very bloody, costly (a Half TRILLION $$ spent just by the US and NATO, not factoring Ukraine's lives lost and costs, and Russia's lives lost and costs) and destructive year. Yet the war continues. Hopefully Russia's Spring Offensive will fail, perhaps the Rasputitsa will further hinder Russian efforts, and the pain will be sufficiently high to have a peace settlement. |

When asking how many casualties Russia is willing to accept in the Ukraine, one should ask: Is Putin more like Stalin in WW2 or Gorbachev at the end of Afghanistan? Most seem to compare him to the former. After all, it's not his children dying and I believe he looks on the lives of his soldiers as Stalin looked on the lives of his. They are on the whole…. Imminently expendable. |
SBminisguy | 15 Feb 2023 12:21 p.m. PST |
Is Putin more like Stalin in WW2 or Gorbachev at the end of Afghanistan? Feels more like Stalin. Stalin faced an existential threat -- to lose was to literally die. Gorby did not, to lose meant semi-retirement to a private Dacha and eventually millionaire status after the fall of the USSR as he became a front man for the "International Green Cross" and earned cash on speaking gigs for various globalist groups and multi-national megacorps. |

97% Of The Russian Army Is In Ukraine If this were a boardgame, this is about the time the Russian player's ally, China, backstabs him and takes all of Far Eastern Russia! "Dude, I thought we were allies?!?!" "We were, but I figured only a stupid ally would leave their backdoor wide open when you *know* I need a ton of oil and resources for my next few turns if I'm gonna have a chance of taking over Taiwan and Vietnam! You can keep Vladivostok and I'll even give you guaranteed rail passage and set you up with modern rail lines as part of Belt and Road to get all the Gucci bags and iPhones you want. And I'll cut you in on 10% of oil sales, you can barely work those oil fields anyway, so you get money for doing nothing. Oh, and don't gimme that nuclear retaliation stuff unless you want us both to lose to those stupid US and NATO players!" |

I think all the Nuke nations remember about MAD. Yes, Russia and China. Un too … If Iran does not have nukes they will. They would be my biggest concern. IMO Putin will push forward all the bodies they can get to keep the war going. They are the definition of cannon fodder. They are hoping for a brokered peace. So how, so way … That allows them to keep the Donbas and Crimea. I highly doubt they will ever be able to mount a large effective offensive. That horse has left the barn shortly they crossed the border. Looks like Putin may wipeout a generation … |
