  1. I don’t think Ukraine had much to do with it . The count is 5 bombers .
    164
  2.  @31mAyMgaYanga Ukraine losses are seven times higher according to the pentagon papers
    98
  3. ⁠ @salbalopes7511 Ukraine took territory fast early in the early because the Russians had withdrawn . There was no resistance Russia withdrew because of troop shortage
    93
  4.  @JustinianCharter-ie9bk are you talking about zelenski . Russian casualties are 60,000 Kia and around 80,000 wounded . 140,000 in total . Not 500,000. There was no Time limit on the SMO . A lot faster than the Americans in Afghanistan Putin’s ambitions look on track for a win before the end of the year
    29
  5.  @Castillodearagon Putin said he could take Kiev and a few weeks “ if he wanted too “ . But it would have meant declaring full scale war and calling up far more reserves . Which would have meant total destruction of Kiev and many civilian and Russian casualties There was no major battle for Kiev . Russia withdrew in accordance with the Istanbul agreement . If you are going to make statements check to see if it’s true first
    25
  6.  @salbalopes7511  Ukraine is losing strategically . Losing tactically can happen for both sides . But you look at the big picture . Russia has already won even though the fighting continues
    19
  7.  @ichbineinberliner8431  armies that win don’t leave in panic and humiliation leaving behind American citizens and billions worth of weapons
    18
  8.  @cactuslietuva Using purchasing power parity ( things in Russia are cheap ) Russian economy has been graded fourth biggest in the world by the IMF. Now can we discuss the size of the Russian army compared to spains and who has the most nukes . You should research before commenting
    18
  9.  @meoff7602  Not a strong propaganda machine like the west
    16
  10.  @erwinrommel8422 it’s not Ukraine . This mission required satellite which Ukraine doesn’t have . Apart from increasing the risk of a nuclear response by Russia it had no effect on the war
    14
  11.  @kraya6740  Far less than Ukraine
    13
  12.  @meoff7602  The only thing that counts is who is winning strategically. That isn’t ukraine
    11
  13.  @ichbineinberliner8431  How do you define winning in an insurgency war . America never controlled any region . That is not winning
    10
  14.  @JustinianCharter-ie9bk  You offer a silly conspiracy theory . What has Europe to offer . And you don’t march on Europe via Ukraine . You go straight to the polish border through Belarus . Much easier
    9
  15.  @dontneedtoknowmyname.6828  Nato is a paper tiger . They use Ukraine to fight Russia . A true army does its own fighting Russia easily surpasses nato in weapons and ammunition , manufacturing capacity , air defences and missiles , electronic warfare , troop numbers and nuclear forces . Your fantasy is not reality
    9
  16.  @JustinianCharter-ie9bk  It is admitted by Merkel and Hollande used Minsk accords to buy time and rearm Ukraine . Russia had no motive to breach the agreement.
    8
  17.  @PM-oe8sp Ukraine doesn’t have a satellite integral for the mission . So obviously it was a country with a satellite
    8
  18.  @erwinrommel8422 Russia has 68 in service but more in storage
    7
  19.  @kraya6740  So if the Russian army is ineffective and its nuclear threats just a bluff why doesn’t nato intervene asap ?
    7
  20.  @kraya6740  The numbers used by the pentagon was Ukraine losses 7 times higher than Russias
    7
  21.  @alexeyzelenin8070 But Russia was defending Ukraine was attacking . Ukraines offensive resulted in losing 200 square kms of territory . An offensive is supposed to take land not lose it
    5
  22.  @kraya6740  Wagner has been absorbed into the regular Russian army and is still active . Their leader died in a plane crash . I could only speculate the circumstances
    5
  23.  @kraya6740  Pentagon papers confirmed by Mediazona was 70 thousand Russian losses at the time . Ukraine seven times higher . You can work out the maths
    5
  24.  @dontneedtoknowmyname.6828  Russia has far better nuclear forces with hypersonic missiles . American delivery system from the 60s Minuteman. Goodness me . Plus lost to the Taliban and the Vietcong lol
    4
  25.  @meoff7602  No the pentagon papers
    4
  26.  @jeddvillaspin3379  Motor cycles have been used very successfully in combat historically . Speed , manoeuvre are they key is some situations . Russia has over 150,000 armoured vehicles I don’t think they will run out
    4
  27.  @JustinianCharter-ie9bk  There are a lot more than 500,000 Ukraine casualties alone . Estimates are 500,000 Kia . And then there is the wounded , captured and missing . Probably close to two million in total And if Putin wanted to March on Europe he would’ve gone straight to the polish border via Belarus not Ukraine . Much easier Your empire conspiracy theory is silly with no evidence to support it

  28.  @dsds173  American troops had to but their own body armour in Afghanistan
    3
  29.  @kraya6740  Russia relies heavily on Russian volunteers who are now becoming part of the regular army.
    3
  30.  @kraya6740  If Ukraine had only lost 70,000 no need for mobilisation they would still have the bulk of their original army left . They have mobilised many times and have a severe manpower shortage
    3
  31.  @kraya6740  Why does Ukraine have an admitted manpower shortage if your numbers were true ?
    3
  32.  @CaptainSherst  The civilian deaths in Mariupol are included in the 10,000 by the way . Really quite low and caused mainly by the Ukrainians retreating into civilian areas . Making them a legitimate military target according to the Geneva convention
    2
  33.  @CaptainSherst  Russia is winning we are coping quite well
    2
  34.  @PM-oe8sp Russia is just being diplomatic . If not the US the UK
    2
  35. @BlockdaCoolguyNo it wasn’t . Orchestrated it indicates planning and logistics . That was done with outside help . Command and control centres in Germany . All in all it good PR . Media propaganda building it up to something it wasn’t

  36.  @tm2bow653  Public relations

  37.  @sb7467  no need for meat waves if you have a massive artillery and air power advantage
    2
  38.  @seljakizgruda  You dont need pentagon papers just commonsense. What have you got ?
    2
  39.  @Skaxforlife  pPP is the most accurate way to judge living standards because it includes inflation . When you add inflation Japan’s GDP in real terms shrinks . The IMF and the world bank use PPP for that reason Also Russian GDP is based on production, and other countries services . Russian economy is real . Western economies produce little by comparison . Uk GDP is 81% services . Meaning they aren’t worth much. Russia with the fourth biggest economy on earth with such a small population is amazing . China , India and America have much bigger populations That is one of the reasons Putin is popular A big GDP means nothing if it’s based on fresh air
    2
  40.  @Skaxforlife  Russia has surpassed both Germany and Japan . It’s not a war economy . Only 6% of Russian GDP is used for the war The economy has a predicted 4% growth by the IMF . Better than all western economies Russia makes most of its wealth from commodities BRICS is about to be launched with its own financial system . The ruble is used for international trade and internally no problems Compared to the three countries before it on the economic ladder China ,India and America the Russian population is tiny . And still it’s the fourth biggest in the world . Very impressive It is the western economies that are fresh air . No industry , no manufacturing , massive debt , no natural resources . One big Ponzi scheme Your predictions are based on your hatred of Russia not economic reality . You know absolutely nothing about Russia
    2
  41.  @Skaxforlife . According to the leaked Pentagon papers confirmed by Mediazona Russians deaths are just over 70,000 and Ukraine losses are seven times that If Ukraine had the losses you say they would still have their original army and weapons . No need for non stop Mobilisations , grabbing people off the street . The average age of the Ukrainian on the front lines would be young not 45 In fact Ukraine would have the war two years ago See what happens when you look at things logically . BS is easily debunked
    2
  42.  @JustinianCharter-ie9bk  He has no dreams of empire that is a silly conspiracy theory . If he wanted to take over Europe he would have gone through Belarus not Ukraine. He could have gone straight to the polish border without a war Europe has nothing to offer . No natural resources , no manufacturing, and a hostile mainly dumb population to control . Why would he be interested ? You obviously don’t know the context of the war at all . Do some research

  43.  @ichbineinberliner8431  Russia has 2000 tactical nukes America 200

  44.  @ichbineinberliner8431  You are right about American nuke facilities but totally wrong about the Russian facilities
    1
  45.  @angelandsoulsoul2924  Russia has 600,000 troops in reserve. Ukraine is in no position to defend anything . Siege tactics coming
    1
  46.  @ichbineinberliner8431  Government funded .”Not in the best of shape compared to ours ?” . Wait and see
    1
  47.  @angelandsoulsoul2924  you are right they would need 250,000 troops . They have 600,000 in reserve still in Russia Russian nuclear facilities funded by the government . ( very well funded

  48.  @pascalthomas1580  Nato is maintaining a permanent state of war and not just in Ukraine

  49.  @FancyPantsOnFire  So the west uses smaller warheads to limit civilian casualties ?How do you explain one million dead Iraqis
    1
  50.  @FancyPantsOnFire  Russia does not limit collateral damage ? Why are civilian deaths in Ukraine so low then ( UN figures .? And civilian deaths in Iraq so high ?
