NYT
Thanks I found that article. Some important information.
All from today’s NYT

NYT reports that there are more than 400k Russians and 250k Ukrainians on the front.
Thanks I found that article. Some important information.
quote:
The war of attrition between Russia and Ukraine is killing soldiers at a pace unseen in Europe since World War II. Ukrainian artillery fire, explosive drones and mines are killing Russian troops, as they repeatedly charge across the no-man’s land. As Ukrainian positions are exposed, they are suffering heavy casualties inflicted from afar by Russian drones, shells and glide bombs. Calculating the scale of the casualties, and therefore the war’s trajectory, is difficult: The information is a state secret in both countries.
quote:
Russia is still winning. Its much larger population and more effective recruitment have allowed it to replace losses more effectively, and to gradually push forward, said Franz-Stefan Gady, a Vienna-based military analyst.
quote:
Combat deaths are just one aspect of a military’s depletion. A more comprehensive measure is irreplaceable, or irreversible losses: a combined number of deaths and serious injuries that prevent a soldier fighting again.
quote:
Combining the estimates, with their caveats and shortcomings, analysts conclude that Russia loses slightly fewer than two soldiers to death and severe injury for every Ukrainian fighter who suffers the same fate.
quote:
There are currently more than 400,000 Russians facing about 250,000 Ukrainians on the front line, and the gap between the armies is growing, according to the military analyst familiar with Western assessments.

I think it is Projection by them. They think everything Trump says I am going to agree with whether its factual or not That is the exactly how the NAFO Fellas behave.
It is not projection. It is calling out your position that Trumps comments on the Ukraine war are wrong. You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but you are just a random dude posting on a message board (like the rest of us) saying that the President of the US doesn't know what he's talking about.
Sorry, but I believe Trump
And now for dessert

Many of Your cut and paste jobs have proven to be fake.
I trust Trump’s words more
Just FYI, you said that in a reply to a post that specifically used the word 'killed'.

Something big must have happened or is happening. This place is full of active Russian stooges. Was it the Trump Davos comments? Three more days or so and this special war operation will maybe be over.

Understood, but when it comes to what Zekensky said I believe Trump over one of JB’s paid political advertisements.
That’s the correct context.
But why can’t you answer this simple question without fillerbusting?
Could Russia have 800K casualties(killed, injured, MIA) and Ukraine 700K?
I think it’s feasible, you?
Btw, your NYT article was very informative.

No, it’s not. Someone can think both Russia and Ukraine suck at the same time.
Just because you can’t get your head around it, doesn’t mean it’s not possible.

Serious question. I don't know.
Some of them are simply people who support Ukraine and want to signal that, but some of them are people like John Barron and SirWinston, except for Ukraine.

Something really big will have to happen for you to actually talk about the war vs just talking about other posters.
Call people out by username, bitch

Quoting posters (including you) to prove you wrong is filibustering? I'm literally quoting you idiots lol

Yes it quite clearly is. Some have even admitted as much.
You don’t have to sound like an idiot voluntarily.
