  1. Chinese population is controlled much more than in Russia. They have extensive surveillance and citizen behavior tracking that Putin can only dream about.

  2. Just in time. I'm not so sure the US could stand up to China without help.

  3. Cappy out of his comfort zone. Kudos for a bold move. Great report 👏

  4.  @Emilechen  Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan probably don't want to assert leadership. It would be seen as a "provocation" by China. They are in an unofficial alliance with the US - and interdependent group of nations.

  5. South Korea and Taiwan also.

  7. I still think the outcome depends entirely on how much money and weapons the West is willing to provide.

  8. Putin's bots need to get more creative. Same Putin narrative each time. Sorry bots, you have to admit you didn't see this coming 😂

  9. Problem is that without a significant victory, the free world will be less inclined to keep sending weapons. Even now the odds of getting Crimea back are slipping. It's pretty much now or never IMHO.

  10. Indonesia should remember what China did to the Uyghurs when they choose who they should align themselves with.

  11. Your head is still going to be impacted by the kinetic energy of a projectile even if it doesn't penetrate and kill you that way. Physics cannot be defeated.

  12. Interesting that the reaction to the massacre brought about by Assad, with support from Putin, in Syria doesn't get much attention relative to what's happening in Israel.

  13. The next big war the US will be involved in will be fought in the air and at sea. Might be worth looking at naval assets - I would definitely be interested in that.

  14. How this will play out is completely unpredictable

  16. They need strong naval power. If China can land troops on the island, it's pretty much game over.

  17. Putin has come away with something so he won't quit till he can negotiate an armistice with some territory. At the end of the day its going to be about "facts on the ground". Neither side is going to give up ground they control when real negotiations start. So now it's a race to gain ground from both sides. IMHO

  18. It just varies in intensity. What would make it a "war"?

  19. If your country is under attack by a power that denies your right to exist as a nation, you are already facing annihilation. The threat of a nuclear weapon from that point of view is just another part of the war. If Putin is going to use a nuclear weapon, it will be in Ukraine. The only way the West gets hit is if we threaten Putin directly.

  20. Still dont understand why we can't send our old stuff to Ukraine. Especially now that we're making all new stuff.

  21. Cappy: the next time you do a video about Ukraine can you list the weapons that might be game changers for them? I've been hearing about a whole variety on mainstream media but doesn't seem to be a consensus.

  22. Maybe they know China is planning an attack, and North Korea wants to join in.

  23. You may be right. I wouldn't be surprised if that's exactly how it plays out

  24. Maybe...

  26.  @theotherohlourdespadua1131  interesting 🤔 didn't know that.

  27. Thanks!

  28.  @marcosolo6491  yes but offensive capability is not something you want to emphasize. Modern wars are in part driven by perception of threat, NATO must be strong but send a signal that it's purpose is not offensive.

  29. Ukraine needs to adopt the Israeli strategy of building their own weapons.

  30. He wasn't the only one who thought so. We were all surprised when Ukraine bounced back.

  31. Thanks! To help offset YouTube demonitization.

  32. Complete with a Lincoln brigade of foreign fighters

  33. Assume Russia takes over - how long can they hold it? They had to leave Afghanistan so won't they eventually suffer the same fate?

  34. Assuming they go through with it, will the aircraft from Poland make a difference?

  35. Ukraine wins if the free world keeps their promise to stand by them, whatever it takes. Not complicated.
