Su-34 is a piece of shite anyway so I doubt they even care about losing them. Whoever designed that monstrosity should be shot.

They just stumbled on these capabilities since the Berlin Wall fell? They didn't possess these talents during the Cold War with their vast resources and collection of satellite states? Damn, we were lucky all those years they never destabilized much weaker Western European countries...

Let's see, to recap the recent Slava Ukraine! supporters recently in this thread we have:
Nukes!
Hybrid warfare
Domino theory
and (this one was my favorite) "George Patton kept the Soviets at bay*"

I think we have officially reached the "just throw shite at the wall and hope it sticks" point of our mindless fandom.







*Patton died in 1945

George Patton represented the entire US army and the thinking of many at the time that we should continue eastward. I used his name because he opposed the Russians.

When will these idiots learn that Putin is within his rights given the nazi bio labs and the fact that NATO literally broke a signed treaty to not expand

They've had these capabilities for over a hundred years. For most of that time we recognized the threat and actively worked against it. Now we have significant factions who deny there is a threat, and some who think we're on the wrong side.

The Russians are too clumsy to manage that, and would struggle to understand the internal conditions in most of these nations.

You have posted so many times that you forgot what you posted.

You asked a wuedyikn as to why the Russians didn’t take more of Europe after WWII.

I posted a short answer. Now you are equating 2024 with 1945? Why?

Don’t leave out his manifest destiny.
Putin has the right to do anything he wants.

Biden doesn't even need to do declare it as excess. He still has over $4 billion in drawdown authority to use. What he doesn't have is funding for replacement equipment, so that's his excuse for not sending anything.


Biden wants Ukraine to win. Biden's administration does not care if Ukraine wins as long as they don't lose before November. Plus Lloyd Austin and Jake Sullivan are too stupid to realize this.

Link? Seriously, please cite the signed treaty.

All I can find is a verbal agreement between leaders of NATO and the USSR back in 1990 before it dissolved.

But you are obviously privy to a signed treaty between NATO and Russia that I am not aware of. So can you post a link to it?

Reread. I meant the entirety of the Cold War. The USSR was a mess immediately after WWII.
