Should have invaded with Jeeps, lol.


Easy fix to this whole thing.....let Putin draw a line of territory he wants to have, then without telling him, let Ukraine leadership choose which piece they want!

You wouldn't need ICBMs in Mexico to target the US.  That "C" in ICBM renders it MOOT, not Mute.  

  You could employ IRBMs.

Anyway, as one of the "children" around here, I fear this will not end well (duh) and Putin will eventually "win" unless he is pulled from office somehow.  As I noted a while back, I think he loses a lot even if he "wins" militarily, and doesn't  gain much of anything.

Ukraine is a poor country in GDP per capita, they do have natural resources, but so does Russia.  Ukrainians won't be happy with whoever gets put "in charge".

Maybe the UN does something useful at times, I'm not sure I know what it is.

Attack On Europe: Documenting Equipment Losses During The 2022 Russian Invasion Of Ukraine - Oryx (oryxspioenkop.com)

A lot of gear being destroyed on both sides, obviously, and these tallies are those for which photo evidence exists somewhere.

At the end of the day, what does Putin really gain here?

It's completely irrelevant to the current situation so I'm not going to bother spending even one bazillionth of my brain power of it.

That train has done run faster than Herschel outrunning those South Carolina DBs.

Is there any way Putin comes out of this stronger?  I think he made a huge miscalculation.
