Creeper:Ukraine had S-300 but they weren't effective against Russia missiles. Luckily, they got advance air defenses this yr, and since then, their energy & other infrastructure has been protected. American Patriot batteries intercepted Russian so called unstoppable hypersonic missile. Russia then arrested som innocent scientists thinking they sold out 😂. It is so funny to hear that Russia has not declared war by pple like u. This is a laughing excuse to cover their battlefield failures. So what they doing now is wrestling contest abi 😂. Russia did mobilization because the first set of soldiers either died or are injured. 300k soldiers were recruited in Sept 2022 (minus thousands of prisoners also recruited by PMC), many are dying as cannon folders, currently more mobilization ongoing secretly in Russia. They can't publish dead figures because it will be embarrassing. And by the way Ukraine doesn't have long range weapons, doesn't have advance planes, doesn't have advance weapons, doesn't have money to buy, doesn't have a weapon industry, doesn't have a good trained soldiers. It depends on others for it weapons needs On paper Ukraine isn't a match for Russia but in practical fighting they are equal. So how do u call Russia a world power, if it can't defeat a 3rd rated army. Bakmut was a village of 70k people and Russia took 8 months to capture some parts of it suffering so many deaths according to PMC boss. Dombass & Luhansk are Russia speaking (friendly to Russia) areas of Ukraine already controlled by Russia allies forces since 2014, but Russia hasn't been able to capture all of it up til now. Even ISIS didn't take this long to capture bigger territories in Iraq b4 they were beaten back. Infact, many territories initially taken by Russia were recaptured by Ukraine eg Lyman, Khakive & Khenson were the Russia were routed. If Russia were truly a world power, capturing the whole of Ukraine shouldn't take them 3 months. As I speak today Russia conventional forces is a laughing stock😂. Luckily they have nukes . I don't know wat Russia will do when Ukraine start their counteroffensive, maybe parts of Bakmut under Russia control will be retaken by Ukraine, or mauripol will be retaken or Crimean wil be retaken I don't know. Russia takes today Ukraine takes back 2morro, seems to be the partern of this war. No wonder Russia is begging for diplomatic solution and Zelensky is calling a bluff. |

God1000:one sided question.i would have loved you ask about the numbers of casualties on the Ukrainian side as well to be more balance. Secondly when you hear a leader or commander saying something like "situation is critical" ur guess is as good as mine.Na only dialogue fit stop the war and the west don't want that. |

God1000:That is what they also said when Soledar city was taken by Russia.Russia will never say they have taken the city if they have not taken it inch to inch. Ukraine is denying just to save face because of the huge weapons they have gotten from NATO,EU,USA etc but still losing. Even if NATO go head on head with Russia,they will be defeated because it will end on the negotiating table when just one Satan 2 does its predestined duty in either USA or UK. Russia against more than 30 countries and still winning 1 Like |

Badassniggga: Bros US captured the whole of Iraq and installed a govt. It captured the whole of Afghanistan & installed a govt there. In both cases they couldn't win the hearts & minds of the local population resulting in suicide bombing & killing of innocent citizens which necessitated sm form of political settlement. Tell any war Russia prosecuted successfully and installed a govt. Russia lost 27m pple just to beat back the NAZIS. Ask urself how many Nazis got killed in WW2, both soldiers and civilians was abt 4m. Isn't it funny that 27m died on USSR side. How do call that a victory for USSR. Hitler didn't use nukes o. Using soldiers as cannon folders is Russia war style. Same is happening in Ukraine today. Abeg, if not the allied forces led by the US beating the Nazis from west, do u think USSR would b successful. Even ur Putin knows this. The allied forces finished off Mussolini, Hitler from the west and Japanese war machine in Asia. Don't also forget that USSR invaded Afghanistan unsuccessfully. 1 Like |

Image123:Don't mind President Zelensky dude gave his family to the West for keep, he has no serious allies in his region, he is busy deceiving himself with Western Backing, they probably sent him to Saudi Arabia to pacify the Crown Prince that the Patriots Defense System are perfect in defending Saudi Arabia... Truth is, I don't think President Zelensky gives a damn about Ukrainian... $ 500billion gone down the drain not to talk of families whose lives have been messed up by his stupid decision.

God1000:They didn't purposely hold the city, have you seen the map of that city? How large it is? It's one of the most secure Ukrainian cities, with weapons planted in every key building in every part of the city, you kniw how many days it took to take this city? The Ukrainians defended it with all they had, with help from different Western mercenary groups and long range weapons from UK. They have been losing the city slowly for a time, if you had seen the map, you'd realize they've been almost totally encircled by the enemy, before they decided to totally withdraw or lose over 30,000 men. It's a huge loss, I'm not sure they can defend other places as hard as they defended Bakhmut, good luck to them tho 3 Likes |

What about the elite paratroopers that joined the Wagners and held their flanks. The position of Bakhmut is not like mariupol, wagners will receive enough bombardment. It won't be easy to hold the town for long. Bbbwings: |

texazzpete:loool so Ukraine sacrificed a lot of good fighting men and women and resources for wat aim? Do u know dat the European map is being re-drawn using force, all Ukraine captured land will never be given to Ukraine after the war ends. This is a play back of the Russian v Finland war again. Those territories are gone, nothing you will say will make Russia give up those lands. I ask again, did Ukraine expend thousands of men and women for fun, u said it's a meat grinder, dat means there have been bloodshed on both sides but at the end Ukraine has taken enough losses that they have to surrender the city. And you think that won't spur Russia to regroup and advance to the next city? Ask the families of the Ukrainian soldiers that died defending the city if it was nothing.. 3 Likes |

Adjovi:The allied forces led by the US didn't use nuclear weapons against the Nazis to beat them. The allied only used nuclear weapons against Japan in Hiroshima and Nagasaki to force an unconditional surrender. pls read ur history books. The allied forces did the major fighting against Hitler in western Europe thereby controlling West Germany with few casualties leaving east Germany for USSR. The USSR lost 27m troops just to push the Nazis back. This is the costliest victory in history. On the other hand the US lost less than 400k troops to defeat the Nazis in western Europe. As for nuclear weapons against the Japanese in Asia, the Japanese wanted a conditional surrender so the allied nuked them for total surrender. Even Japan that was nuked did not lose upto 3m soldiers & civilians combined. So without the allied forces the USSR couldn't have been able to resist the Nazis, maybe they would've lost their total population of abt 100m completely. |

Ened:Germany lost Näzi army + civilians 4m? LoL. Where'd you get that shyte from? . Comparing Iraq to Ukraine is nothing but a dumb comparison. Iraq was a weaker country and US was a bigger side tenfolds and not to mention Iraq was not a huge military power like Russia or Nazi Germany. RUSSIA decimated the best advanced Army in the world back then in the bloodiest battle known to man, your US don't have the nerve to fight against a force that good, instead they keep on bullying those that cannot fight back in the middle east . And the allied only started beating Hitler's army from the west when they saw USSR already decimated a chunk of Nazis and are already closing in Berlin. When Russia was still fending off Hitler in Stalingrad close to Moscow where was your Allied army from the west ⬅️? Scared as hell 2 Likes 1 Share |

Badassniggga:Ussr beat the best military then by losing 27m souls, does that sound like victory to u.If it does then I am not surprised. Imagine Nigeria mobilizing all adult male to repel Ghanaian invaders and losing 30m Nigeria males to push them back. Will u consider that a victory worthy of celebrating & talking about. Maybe u will 😂. By the way the Nazis lost momentum due the winter cold inside Russia and long logistics lines. Pls read ur history. American beat both the Nazis, the Italian and Japanese Forces with less than 400k casualties. The Japanese were even the best military then if u don't know. Moreover whatever pyrrhic victory ur USSR painfully achieve against the Nazis is now history, just like Napoleon Bonaparte all na history. In today's world Russia is a depleted army, a shadow of it fmr self. Threatening nuclear war if NATO helps Ukraine. I just dey laugh 😂. She na Russia that ordinary Ukraine dey show shege wan take on the almighty USA. Dey whine urself. On paper Ukraine shouldn't be a match for Russia. But judging by the Ukraine war, a reasonable person will notice that both militaries are equal on the battlefield (even though Ukraine doesn't have long range missiles or advance war planes etc, however Russia has nuclear weapons. Isn't it ridiculous that Russia hasn't attained air superiority over Ukraine even with all Ukraine limitations. In today's term, Russia is nuclear power. But it's conventional forces is weakened and uninspiring . It's took almost one year to capture parts of Bakmut, a remote village of 70 000 people. At this rate it will take Russia 100 000yrs & 250m dead to capture Ukraine 😂😂😂. But we know it can never contemplate nor come close to achieve such. |
