Relax, I didn't claim that Putin is about to be ousted, or that Russia is losing the war on the battlefield anytime soon.
I just pointed out that even the limited info we have is sufficient to conclude why Shoigu was able to retain his position and why Surovikin had to go.


I didn't claim you did, just seems like the limited info you refer to is western reporting on Russian affairs that is insanely slanted to make everything the Russian government does look cartoonishly incompetent.

I'm sure some of it is accurate but considering how much of it is bullshit I instantly distrust any claims about the inner workings of the top levels of the Russian government, especially in regards to an ongoing military conflict which is essentially a proxy war against the countries those sources report from.

I don't know why there wasn't much talk about the massive Ukrainian recruitment corruption.

Rich Ukies paying up to $10K to escape conscription in the army and corrupt Ukrainian officials buying luxury villas in Spain.

I guess this surprised no one here LMAO.

Well said.

We lived through months of garbage like the Russian are out of ammo, they’re fighting with shovels, they’re on the verge of collapse, etc.

A healthy dose of skepticism should applied to whatever one believes is true.

If the F-16s were Block 70.............perhaps :lol: Honestly Block 70s are another kind of monster, pretty good.
But I think a few pages back someone is screaming the F -16S is going to wreck Russia. Also a few months back the Leopards / Abrahms , Javelins and Drones are going to wreck the Russians. :lol:
