re: Latest Updates: Russia-Ukraine Conflict

I guess when they realized they couldn't even take a surrounded Chernihiv, Kyiv was a little too ambitious.

Gotta save face somehow since they weren’t met with parades and flowers like they were told

Look, I spoke with a retired marine general today. His words “we’d be in a much better place if our government would quit tripping over their own feet”

I don’t understand how politicians can’t learn to think before speaking in public especially when speaking about foreign policy or military. They don’t have to lie or only tell people what the people want to hear, only stick to the talking points, etc. Just think about what you are going to say and how you say it. If you can’t figure out what to say just say “let me get back to you.”

Any graphics that you guys can post from it would be great, cant get on that site at the moment

The interesting thing with these numbers is when you look at Ukrainian losses, weighed against what they've captured, it's a net gain for them.

This happens when you have a compliant media that has chosen a side. The "leaders" from that side rarely have to defend their positions or monitor what they say.

This is a full quarter of the tanks Russia was estimated to have directed to this war effort. I wonder what the real number is.

I'm not sure if this is the same website. And if it is, if they're still doing it, but for every vehicle they claimed destroyed/abandoned/captured they would only count it with photographic evidence. There was a separate page where you could go through and view each individual vehicle/ship/aircraft.

Of course, how they verify the authenticity of each photo...I don't know. I'm sure it isn't a complete and accurate assessment of losses during this war but there is at least something to back up their claims.

I quoted from Oryx

Yeah that's it. You can click on each vehicle that it lists and they show you a picture or video of it.

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available.

Like I said, not sure how they verify the photos, but it's at least more than just a number pulled from who knows where.
