No nato nation can fight properly without air cover

Without f16 or f whatever covering them as they go foward

So even if you pack all the special forces from USA to ukraine without this air cover they will all die in Ukraine

So even if they also send couple of hundred or thousands men to ukraine they will still die after some time

Many military analyst has been saying it so unless USA can man up and say to Russia let fight face to face

Then we will know who is truly the best

Russia is the best let them defeat Ukraine.

Russian troops are eternal, without or with Air support they can't die.

The war is to prevent nato from coming to ukraine and it has already been achieved have you seen any nato leaders saying Ukraine is going to be a part of nato so and so date
The war is is also about taking certain percentage of Ukraine land as a punishment which has also been achieved
It not about killing innocent people while achieving those objectives
So cool down and know using brute force is not a solution
Now let look at the nation's that have used brute force what did they achieve
Name one thing USA nato achieved in Afghanistan
Apart from replacing taliban with taliban after spending over three trillion dollars and countless life's
All for nothing
I sense everything you wrote there is about containing Ukraine & it's western backers., Yes, while their objectives is currently being "stalled" by Russia's war efforts, Are they being contained?? What will happened if by tomorrow after these guys take the war into Russia proper & creating chaos with civilians evacuation and all of that, they now wake up one day and declare Ukraine is in Nato, What will happen? politics right? Ohh.. nuclear war?? Bros it's high time these Russians realised the gang up against it is real and that this isn't about Ukraine and it's people but the ultimate crippling & segmentation of the Russian state by the west.
#SOLUTION.? Take the war to those who matters in the capital., Take out those who matters in the scheme of things, go the isreali style if you must, achieving real success on your objective goes beyond annexing lands na, it should be literally disseminating & disabling their(Ukros & West) morale.. has the Russians achieve this?

Putin's biggest mistake was attacking Ukraine, and when Ukraine defended Kyiv from Russians troops, it dymystified Putin and the strength of the Russian army.

Now Ukraine has grabbed a foothold in Russian territory, something unthinkable some years ago.

If Putin spent half the money he spent on the war in improving the Russian/Ukraine relationship the world would be a better place.

The West now control the outcome of the war, Ukraine is willing to escalate as much as possible, Russian escalation has reached its peak.

Lol go back to history. Many have invaded Msocow in the past but what happened at the end? Russia takes it to them and destroy them. Russia is a war machine and are not that scared about wars. They have fought wars and conquered. This Ukraine own is childs play. If you know how big Russia is you wont be here saying this.

Later they will fall back after taking selfies. Not a new thing what is happening today.

Even Nigeria would knock out a surveillance drone with 0 defense.

The usefulness of the surveillance drone is in the data it can gather.

Former Ukraine Army chief Gen Valerii Zaluzhnyi said the air force had "destroyed" an A-50 long range radar detection aircraft, and an Il-22 control centre plane.

If this is the method you want that means USA nato should also do it to Assad

Because without Russia protecting Assad he would have been killed.. You forgot Assad killed alot of USA nato boys backing regime change back then yet nato refrain from going all out on him

That means France should do the same to those African states where Russia is protecting too

This theory is not that easy... Ukraine is a dying horse all dying horse kick so hard before they die

When Russia destroys Ukraine in kursk that will calm everyone down so forget about thinking Ukraine will go deeper how can that be possible

This war, if truth be told is a shamble., it has lost its steam and unfortunately has also lost lots of brave, committed and patriotic great men with it., A war that, if not for stupid carefull for nothing hide and seek polictics putin is playing with his western colleagues, should've ended without dragging this long.. more surprises awaits them, as the Ukrainians backed by western resources grow bold and daring by the day. All these propagandas won't help. Thier men and resources will continue to go so far they're playing by the western set rules.


I keep saying this everyday.


Russia should have Nuked Ukraine to oblivion and save their troops for NATO.


Nukes can be replaced in less than a year. But it takes 18 years to replace a human.

Now is the time for Russia to kill all those retired jet pilots that killed innocent people in Afghanistan and Somalia and Iraq and Syria and Libya and co


That of Iraq was particularly painful watching the footage of US and British pilots deliberately targeting and shooting running women and children. It was so horrible that the House of Lords opened a formal inquiry into the civilian massacre but the investigation was swept under the carpet later on. I wonder how those pilots manage to sleep at night.

When will it not be used? The countries stockpiling them are not keeping them for fun.

The allies were winning world war 2 at the time the US used it. It was unnecessary and wasn't even justified at the time, yet the US used it anyway.

Should we advocate for nuclear weapons to be used? Probably not. But does our advocacy mean anything?

Millions in the US and EU protested against the US invasion of Iraq, but the US still went on to invade, claiming Iraq had weapons it didn't have.

Millions more are protesting the genocide in Gaza and the US, UK, EU, Japan, Australia, and Israel just look the other way and plainly deny it's happening.

There is a difference between special forces and special operations forces.

He clearly mentioned that the troops you are referring to are special operations forces and not special forces. "Special forces" refers to a specific US Army unit.

Nuking to me should be last resort when full blown war breaks out between Russia and west. I'm taking about proper intelligence gathering and eliminating capabilities on weapons shipments, rails, warehouse/stores, barracks, bunkers etc. How on earth would you not target incoming cargoes of weapons from the west? What are you avoiding, don't they have enough spies/intelligence gathering capacities?? Why would they allow the Ukros to even have deployment capabilities? I seriously doubt the competency and credibility of these Russian army.. Military weapoms/Technology is nothing without planning and strategy. I give it to the mossad/Isreal.

The clown used to be a Muslim but converted to Christianity. And ever since, he became anti-Islam. Funny enough, he isn't anti-Islamic enough to change his first name from a Muslim name.

The weird thing is that he doesn't even go to church either. So, his definition of Christianity is hating on Muslims, rather than focusing on what Christianity is about.

He isn't even some tough guy in person, just a regular dude. His braggadocio and disrespectful behavior starts and ends on the internet.

He has graduated already and is currently in law school, or at least should be, if they haven't sent him away already ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคก

And the dude is actually from Osogbo. (He even has Osogbo tribal marks.) He just happened to school in Ilorin though it appears he has maternal links to Ilorin, which still makes him a nonsense hungry lawyer from Ilorin ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคก.

And lest I forget, he is the same person as False Prophet.

This is my own opinion and not what media or whatever said.. Ive been on this since last year or so.
Quite a lot of people don't like the way Putin handled Ukraine in the first year, when the Russians were hitting Ukraine erengy plant with hope it will force Ukraine to negotiation.
Meanwhile the west was busy crossing every Russian red lines in both types of weapons supplied and where can be hit.

Now F-16 are in Ukraine, Refineries are being struck, AFU are in Russia and kiev and it's partners are discussing removing limit on it weapons to hit deep inside Russia, it's only a matter of time before they will grant the request.

If Russia went into Ukraine as nethenyahu did to gaza all this would be over, that's probably what prigozin wanted and he was right.

What's the worse that could happen to Putin? The west obviously ride on his kindness ironically, yet they still issue an ICC arrest against him, cut off Russia from the global market and cease it assets.

I view Russia the way i view USA, and the US will never tolerate half of what Russia did even if they America was wrong

Your own opinion quotes an entire sentence which is not yours. It is academically more ethical to give credit to where you got the sentence from.
1. Ukrainian military being in Russia is of no relevance, this is a war, and Russia is applying attrition strategy. Ukrainian soldiers in Kursk is to the military advantage of Russia. You seem to be focused on PR like zelensky while you should be focused on strategy.
2. Russia has always been kind in geopolitics and Warfare, it is their tradition, they even treated the Nazis with kindness, they treated Finland with kindness after ww2, they treated Germany with kindness and trust in 1991, they treated Galicia with kindness and trust in 1991. Russia trusted the USA in 1991. Russia always obeys agreements and gives trust to people who (after the test of time ) do not obey agreements and don't deserve trust. I think that that is changing now. It has nothing to do with Putin, it is russian culture which they need to change.
3. Russia seems to always be taken by surprise when its adversaries break all conventions and do things like supporting or enabling or ordering terrorist attacks or directly doing terrorist attacks. Russia needs to have a better understanding of the fact its foe don't follow rules. But Russia has a little historical inferiority complex which makes it such that Russia always imagines it needs to prove that it is not a savage nation to others while Russia always expects its foes to be as civilised as Hollywood claims.
