So Russia is capable of firing many times more rounds than Ukraine. Stoltenberg has recently admitted this

Douglas MacGregor: The Ukrainians can hardly move or they're destroyed by artillery fire, Ukrainian brigades in Bakhmut lost up to 70% of their strength before being pulled out, Ukraine has reportedly seen 12 rounds of mobilization (!!!), not many left in Ukraine, they're now pressing 16 y/o boys into service...

But Russia taking horrendous casualties to the extend that they've already lost the war...

Keep sucking up that propaganda, you're obviously loving it, lol

that video is clearly untrue, ergo propaganda. but this is normal. to be precise, the war is not over ergo no side has "won" (yet).
holy moly thats the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of the US military, he should fire the scriptwriter. mental to expose himself like that, what if russia succeeds, is he going to resign for lying ?

No, Russia is not "capable"... They waste tons of artillery in unprecise strikes, while Ukraine is known for being much more precise. Especially with the support of drones and NATO...
Since the beginning of the war people who follow news are aware of this major difference. Ukraine a has big consumption at this moment and NATO will have to compensate, i guess they can do... Without any problem...

After that i reading you are going for Douglas MacGregor again ... Well this guy is an ex-trump admin who spread conspiracies...
Then you are finishing up with saying i'm "Keep sucking up" propaganda ...
This is definitely a personal attack. And i see you are using a very rude language in almost all of your posts. Very sad behavior.

The idea that Ukraine has to do a counter offensive as soons as possible is a consensus now, this is what pushed the whole "tanks panic" recently, then aircrafts (which is still in a state of yes-no-yes-no ... :lol: )
This general was very pessimistic toward ukraine earlier in the invasion.
Now the real question is "when" exactly... They don't have the (all) the tanks atm ! :o
Maybe they will use all what they have now and will count on NATO later for resplenish or whatever.

Interesting to see the desert camo vehicles. Don't think that is optimal for Ukraine's battlefield.

First time I am seeing this headline, not convinced of its authenticity. Certainly interesting if true.

If it is true, could be as simple as Wagner has fulfilled its duty of plugging the gap between Russia's first invasion and conscripts reaching the front.
With the side benefit of removing a potentially divisive figure in Prigozhin, from the public eye.

Prigozhin is a liability, I wonder if even the Russian people are comfortable with his level of brutality. The Russian military seems to be attempting a genuine overhaul. Their future is Putin's future, so it makes sense for him to give them what they want, and they want Prigozhin's metaphorical head.
