Well, Russia thought it would take all of Ukraine in a couple of weeks.
How long has it been and what have they won?
And how many people opposed to the war are in Russian jails? 50,000?
As far as i understand the situation
-Russia and %Ukraine are unable to win the war in a short time
-Russia keeps an advantage but not decisive
-Propaganda is lying, from both sides.
-Putin is annexing east of Ukraine and that means that once done, with a straw referendum programmed, he will consider that use of nuclear weapons to defend it is legitimate.
to sum up, the situation is shitty and can degenerate.
Because the way the war is panning out and the sanctions are a joke and hurting the west
And those are just the ones they didn’t kill, but are still using as an example.
NC: A Marine’s Assessment of Russia’s Military “Operation” in Ukraine .
Scrolled it.
I stopped when i read the paper saying that the attack on Kiev was a feint.
Some points raised seem interesting but this one is pure scrap. I don’t think i need to elaborate.
It’s a guy surfing the internet and choosing whatever confirms his bias. He doesn’t know who his source is, so how could he check it?
Such anti American bias in the Marine Corps Gazette cannot be tolerated
I can’t tell what you actually think, what’s sarcasm, what’s mocking.
I find it very interesting what some people call “anti-American”. How do you define “American”? BTW, the article you posted really doesn’t say anything important or even what I think of being contrary to a U.S. citizen. It says nothing of importance actually.
It does say something of what Michael thinks of being a US citizen and he seldom (if ever) says anything of importance.

Do people here consider such writings as anti american? Even if they would agree what is written is truthful??
We encourage freedom of speech. We even welcome constructive criticism.
We do not tolerate falsehood and subversion. We persecute treason and sedition.
I can’t evaluate the truthiness of it, other than it contradicts others, and they can’t both be true. Honestly, after reading it, I didn’t think about it, it has a lot of unimportant details. It’s hard to tell what case he is making.
For the sake of argument lets say you accept what is written in the MCG is true, do you still label this as anti American?
Hearsay. Again you fail to link to the original article.
You always quote an article, from a quote of an article, from a quote of an article.
Hearsay doesn’t make a persuasive argument. Quote the source, or qualify the post . Moreover 1 disappointed soldier does not a trend make. You can mention it, but it doesn’t make a persuasive argument.
Thats not what i asked
Right, you asked “what if” and that question can be asked in a million different ways . You cannot discuss hypotheticals. That is a useless waste of time.
So dont bother with a non answer
I gave you an appropriate answer.
