You are dumbing down this thread, No ifs ands or buts about it.

One interesting fact is that the War Department in conjunction with Hollywood, made and released "The Fight Lady" as a docudrama in Dec 1944, when the Allies were definitely winning in both the European and Pacific Theatres of War because the public wasn't buying that we were winning. In Europe, both fronts were at Germany's doors. In the Pacific, The Battle of Leyte Gulf had been over for months. China was taking back its country. England was pushing the Japs out of India and towards Singapore.

Yet still the public's support was waning and needed a shot in the arm.

What would you do then, if you were president of the country right now? Tell us how you would handle this conflict, and you can’t say completely ignore it, because that’s not the reality we live in.

Innocent people at a funeral for a Russian officer in Donetsk? Coward please! Anyone there is a Russian soldier or a Ukrainian collaborator (aka a traitor).


You’ve lost it dude. You really should take a step back and get some perspective bro. You and a few others in this thread have reached OML levels of estrogen fueled emotional denial of reality.

Geopolitics is not war. While you know just enough to be dangerous on the geopolitics side you absolutely do not know or understand war.

Oh this is that same bullshite that the Left says when you define a woman and they ask “Are you a biologist?” Or when someone questions Fauci “Are you a doctor?” Yeah, I’m not a veterinarian, but I can tell you what a fricking dog is.


No. It was an innocent question. But, seeing how defenseive you got, you clearly dont know shite about war. Everybody in this thread sees you for the joke that you are. Carry on, we laugh at you.

OML, the world is different than it was a year ago. We are probably not going back. The US has a special status in the world. Without us half of Europe would be under Russian control. Because the Russians set the terms for the world they want. Vladimir the Great is their leader. He will lead them to greatness. OML, again, the world is different from the way it was a year ago. Repeat after me, the world …….,

Did you breach doors in the Anbar Province of Iraq during OIF?

How about combat operations in the Parwan Province of Afghanistan during OEF?

You don't understand the simple use of an apostrophe, much less anything else more complicated. Like following a regular schedule for your meds.

Ukraine Will Receive 11 MiG-29 Fighters From Slovakia

06 August 2022, Saturday, 18:14

The Minister of Defense of Slovakia, Jaroslav Nagy, announced his readiness to hand over fleet of 11 MiG-29 fighters to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. But he emphasized that the country cannot present military aircraft to Ukraine, so it will demand replacement or compensation of their cost from Western partners.

This is stated in the plot of the FreeDom project.

"This is a whole squadron, the use of these aircraft does not require retraining of personnel, nor modernization of airfield infrastructure, does not require the purchase of any weapons that we did not have before," commented Victor Kevlyuk, an expert of the Center for Defense Strategies.

In Slovakia, after the transfer of the MiG-29, they are expecting instead F-16 fighters from the partners.

"The situation with the transfer of MiG-29s - they are equipped with a "home-foreign" system, new radars, new avionics systems. That is, these aircraft are better compared to the samples that are available in Ukraine," said military expert Serhii Zhurets.

OML is an unstable quack, but your response is BS.
People understand what war is, for all practical purposes, even if they have not been involved in combat. To contend otherwise is irrational elitism.
You do not know what is like to encounter a tracking SAM, or to manufacture a deadly drone or to receive an officer at your door informing you of the death of your spouse. That does not disqualify you from having a basic understanding of what war is.
Violent death on an industrial scale is on out TVs every day.
