I have not seen anyone comment on the New York Times article that said Ukraine is running out of soldiers.

The outcome was known?
Exactly. We even told you what would happen.
You called us "Putin stooges" because you were far less knowledgeable than we were.

Putin always had a decided advantage in equipment and manpower. Russia has out produced the west during this disaster. They took it seriously, the west never mobilized.
Plus he was up against weak western leaders such as Biden, Scholz, Macron, whatever retard the UK had at the time. All losers.
Not.saying you are one, but there are some actual Putin worshipers/lovers/stooges on the PB. Just as there are some Ukraine neocons and leftists in this thread that have joined forces: Trotskyites.
The neocons are orgasmic over any war, as long as they are not the ones having to fight and die in it. The leftists have given up on their mission of spreading a world communist revolution and now are committed to spreading George Soro's version of western democracy.

Yes, with the advantages Russia has, without sending manpower Ukraine is fricked.
This is simply common sense, everyone should have seen it coming.

I agree. The manpower advantage made it into simple math. Russia would have to have been knocked out early. But Putin was never going to quit after he started. His life depended on it.
I hate this for the average Ukrainian. They have been used.

Exactly. Its devolved into a WWI type war of attrition.
I just see no point in it continuing, as the only thing that will change is the body counts.

You are now just figuring this out? This was the case from the beginning. As soon as you saw Blackrock and JP Morgan visiting Ukraine that was confirmation. Sell the Ukrainian people down the river and privatize their national assets

I don’t remember anyone predicting the successful Ukrainian counter offense in Kherson of Kharkiv. I don’t remember anyone saying the Russian navy would have to retreat into safe harbor. I don’t remember the prediction of Ukraine invading Russia successfully.
I do remember months and months ago predictions of Russian offenses rolling West. The war was over when Bakmuth fell. Remember? I remember hearing thatUkraine would freeze to death. Then it was Western Europe freezing to death.
It had been almost three years and Russia is still caught up in a slugfest in the trenches. Things don’t look great for Ukraine, but they haven’t looked great ever since Putin decided to attack in force way back when. And at that time you stooges said the war was almost over then.

Its not getting better without Western troops on the ground. Is that what yall want?

Germany lost WWI due economy collapsed.
Both France and England would have folded after the first year but for US banks funding them.
Russia has a lot of cannon fodder but is not supported with equipment, fuel and money from the US as it was in WWII.
India is going back to Saudi crude from heavily discounted Russian crude.
Russia's cash cow, Gazprom is BROKE.
Russia is running out of armor from its stockpiles to refurbish and replenish its front. The main issue is barrels for artillery and tanks to replace worn out barrels at the front.
I'm not saying that Russia doesn't win but I am saying that Russia is fricked as an economy for years to come. Putin did that. That last thing Putin needs is for his soldiers to return home.

Explain this using actual information and details. Explain it in a way that would convince anyone here that you have any idea what you're talking about

Which will make them more desperate.
The best solution for everyone is a negotiated settlement now.

Russia is paying an extreme price for territory they gave away 35 or 40 years ago.
No matter what, it's a steep price that Russia will be paying for a very long time.

There seems to be this idea that Russia has an unlimited number of soldiers, instead of the reckoning that Russia is now out of prisoners, the enlistment bonuses paid have skyrocketed beyond anything remotely resembling sustainability, and this is what Russia is getting -- it's really a funny video:

I am never getting my hopes up about the future of any Middle Eastern country, however with this withdrawal and the lack of reported attacks on Syrian minorities, the news so far is all good.
I feel the same. I can’t fathom a scenario where the cycle of violence and retribution is broken in Syria, it only takes one violent group to restart it, but the transition to a new government at least thus far does not appear hell bent on score settling.
Perhaps Syrians remaining are truly tired of bloodshed for the moment.
