Ukraine - Russia Conflict

[JedisonsDad]

Could we stop announcing new arms packages until we’ve provided the earlier arms packages…that we promised but not yet delivered?

But promising weapons is the same as providing weapons, when it comes to public image. Much easier.

How about we stop promising AND stop delivering? At least until we get some accounting on how those weapons and that money is being used?

Very interesting considering where the front line is presently.

Is this sheer incompetence or a brilliant master plan? I’m thinking and hoping it’s the former.

Makes sense to me. If you can't redeploy those forces in a timely manner to react to the counter offensive, have them strike at Territory where the position is stronger to distract and put on the Ukrainian Army on the back foot and divert resources from the ME.

No telling. Spoiler attacks to force a shift in Ukrainian forces. Commanders trying to show Putler they are still fighting. Limited offensive for some local, tactical gain. A "reconnaissance in force" looking for an area to launch a counterattack.

It seems like a waste of resources and men, but Soviets gonna' Soviet.

A Russian does; it's not evidence by itself that the population wants to shrink heads.

I'll try and find it again later but I saw a video last night supposedly showing a Chinese mortar bomb (and a case in the background) captured. Wouldn't be a surprise considering they're shopping around at DPRK for ammo.

Seriously? Those weapons are the reason why Ukraine are pushing the Russians back, the reason why less Ukrainians are being tortured to death right now. Why would we stop that? We can see what the aid is doing, in real time.

Every report I've seen to date states that polls state that the Russian population support this war in percentages from 70-80%, now I was with Russians in Ukraine that were fighting for the Ukrainians, but as a population, that country can burn.
My unit was using a Chinese 60mm mortar when I was there, I don't know where it came from or where the ammo was from, but the mortar was brand new..
