  1. Really?

    That’s 16 divisions and change. Where are these coming from?

    The biggies — the US, France, Germany, the UK, Italy, Spain, Poland — should account for many of these and there are no news about any new American/French/German/British/Italian/Spanish division being raised. Poland might be adding two divisions; this or that smaller country a brigade. Most aren’t.

  2. If Ukraine had been supplied with the weapons they’d requested, Russia would have been defeated.

    As it is, the Russian stockpile of Soviet-era equipment is dwindling fast, and once that is gone, Russia isn’t the threat it was pre-2022.

  3. Quantity over quality is the tactic of the “enemy”. More is never enough… keep it up!

  4. NATO should rather send units to Ukraine for air defense of civilian targets!

    But they have no balls for that!

  5. I fear the motivation to join the army is still too low in the west. Most people haven’t got a clue that it requires the will to fight for your freedom, Or that it costs money.

    Most of the time they don’t get shown (by media or by the algorithm of their social media) what misery comes with Russian reign.

    The other day I watched an interview with admiral Rob Bauer on a newsprogram (buitenhof https://youtu.be/288Prbt1Y9U?feature=shared). The moment he mentioned free will of east country when choosing to join NATO the topic got changed. When he mentioned that negiotion of peace and ceding areas to Russia would be an formal break with international regarding sovereignty, the topic got changed. When he mentioned “If you want peace, prepare for war” it got downplayed as yet another ancient proverb as if it was off topic. Really popular news just doesn’t want to inform, to inspire or stand for something. Unless you count mass consumption and low prices (avoid conflict at all cost so you can buy cheap gas form Russia and cheap slaveproduct from China)

  6. Yes I doubt that. Shitbirds like Putin and Xi aren’t going to be dissuaded with anything short of total annihilation

  7. Wheyyyyy good to see Bradleys on the rigs we’ve trained on. Always thought a IFV on M3 would be like a GDI gunboat.

  8. They wouldnt need to if they strengthened Ukraine a bit more. We are in the unique spot of being able to neuter russia for generations to come.  Trickling aid to Ukraine and limiting where they can attack, isnt going to reach that goal.
