Re: UKRAINE WAR - 2024 thread
Minus the fact that 2023 Ukrainian Summer offensive lacked the thing that NATO armies count most on... complete and uncontested control of the air. Those NATO style offensives are predicated on being able to ring up HQ and declare that certain hilltops should not exist anymore, or deep strike reinf...

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 1 YEAR AND GOING.
Fuck off, you don't get to tell me what to do, asshole. So you'll sit and question why other people think Ukraine will lose while being unable to offer anything when asked the counterfactual of how they're going to win? Do I need to start citing debate rules to compel an answer or concession from y...

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 1 YEAR AND GOING.
Is it lost or unwinnable though? Vympel said earlier that not every war is the 2nd World War, but even in that war, the USSR lost millions in months and kept going ANYWAY. People who expect a plucky Ukrainian victory when massively outnumbered the way Ukraine is are living in Wehraboo fantasy land,...

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 1 YEAR AND GOING.
Is 6 million+ sizable enough for you? That's how many have fled the country so far. If the war is already lost, or at least unwinnable, I'd rather see every soul left in Ukraine fleeing into the EU. Better a life in exile than death by shell or bullet. I don't think a long deadly stalemate is ever ...

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 1 YEAR AND GOING.
Will the US stop trying to meddle in other countries' spheres of influence and couping neighbors after this, or do you think we'll just do it even harder?

Re: Enterprise- Federation flagship?
I know this is just a side effect of the sprawling canon, the need to keep things apart, different cooks in the kitchen and so on but it has always seriously bothered me how we've had two or three on-screen wars now where the Enterprise was absent from the front lines for one bullshit reason or anot...

Re: Joe Biden 'wilfully' disclosed classified materials, but won't face criminal charges
Didn't feel like it was quite worthy of it's own thread, but I think it's relevant that one of Biden's "issues" disappeared today: GG Ukraine witch hunt : Special counsel David Weiss — who has previously filed criminal charges against President Biden’s son Hunter — announced new charges Th...

On that front, their problems go further than some shitty American politicians: Europe’s arms production is in ‘deep shit,’ says Belgian ex-general Europe’s ammo production shortfalls are a symptom of a “cultural problem” to adapt to a war-ready industry, retired general Marc Thys tells POLITICO.
