And then you look a little deeper who the open source intelligence is and it’s basically Bellingcat and friends who are not impartial objective observers. Believe whatever you want though, tbh what’s spammed on the internet has little to no effect on what’s actually happening on the ground.

It's impossible to accept Ukraine annexion here, you know that ?
If you want to discuss about chinese or russian zillions deaths because of Purges, well i'm not in the mood today.

Ukraine is a victim for Geo political dominance between two petty and disgusting Super Powers


Hm this is false, we had much worse divisions to deal with in the past.


Yes, i agree, but after the break up of the Soviet Union , Russia is no longer viewed as an expansionist force.
As of today, from what we see, apart from her Nuclear Arsenal , Russian's conventional forces have revealed how incompetent they are.

In regards to Europe. France have left Nato in 1966 which I think was a very pragmatic choice, sad that they rejoined in 2009.
In pure honesty , you guys should have stuck with the Pleven Plan.

Ukraine is not the victim you are painting, they tried hard to get rid of vampiric russian regime, they had no other choice than involving NATO. They are saying it themselves.
This agression really consolidated EU and will increase its military independance in the future. Past history is not a perfect reference. In 1966 drones, sattelite surveillance, web 2.0-3.0, and alot of things were simply not existing.

I don't consider this as a valid criticism. The whole thing about open source intelligence is that it can be independently verified.

What does open source intelligence say about Ukrainian army casualties or losses? Because that’s something I can’t find any information on, meanwhile max pain Russian losses are broadcast daily across the MSM.

Russia was only trying to be peaceful for like several years somewhere from 1990 until Putin came to power and started genocide in Chechenya.
Give me another country that is that bad.


Any which has at least 200 years history.

According to the available data, Russia had 4k tanks in service.
1k is not a half of it.
And Russia has a lot of old tanks in their reserves, probably another 4k or more in reserves somewhere in garages.
We dont know how many of these are ready to go battle, its all question marks.



Ukraine worked 8years on their fortificafions in Donbas, and you expect to fortify in few days?
Fortified and cut of supplies? Cut of ammo, petrol, food, waiting for Ukraine to shoot and bite them from all the sides?
Not a good military plan, lol.


2400 and this is not only the tanks used in Ukraine, it's all tanks at service
