Uhhhhh. Yeah, about that. Also, until this war happened, I would have been confident if I got drafted that I could at least not get clapped the first week by just having general knowledge of firearms, being a decent shot at 300 yards, and having grown up in a rough enough part of town as a kid that I know when to duck and keep my head down. With the invention of drone warfare, the US can suck my nuts. Ill be draft dodger extraordinaire if this war happens anywhere besides on US soil.


But the War *IS* coming.

20+ years of war, Americans have had enough war. They better think twice before getting us involved in something European Countries can take care of. How many Americans are they willing to sacrifice in the name of NATO?

We're doing this now so it doesn't turn into a wider war. Putin has made it clear he wants to resurrect the Warsaw Pact. When someone says something, believe them. You can slap Russia's dick in the dirt now or see this blow up into a regional or possible world war in a couple of years.

I’ve heard that for 28 months now and outside of the beginning of the Russia invasion the dick slapping has resulted in a stalemate with God knows how many dead on both sides. The videos coming out of Ukraine have showed how far warfare has come, and how ruthless it is. Even now Ukraine can’t do what really needs to be done with all the money, and especially weapons they have received. The same goes for Russia, if Russia truly wanted to decimate the cities of Ukraine they could do so at anytime with conventional weapons. This will blow up and probably become WW3 at anytime, that’s the problem. Let’s cut the bullshite, we all know how this is going to end, and it’s not going to be pretty.

I continue to be amazed that people actually believe this. Nothing since the break up of the Soviet Union (including Putin’s long run as leader) shows this to be true.

Because we're helping them. Russia is stupid, corrupt and inefficient but they would have overwhelmed Ukraine by now without western assistance. They almost did this spring and summer when we were slow playing our aid to them.

It's pretty much a nightly topic on Moscow TV. The youtubes of it are plentiful.

Wow. I guess you call a mag a clip as well which would be peak irony in this specific instance.

No, he went through a normal divorce and shares custody. He’s been married to his current wife quite a while and has several children

He did a similar episode post this episode featuring two soldiers fresh out of the battles between Israel and Hamas and they reemphasized how involved drones are now. Seems like drones are more of a threat that actually getting shot in modern warfare.

That seems to be the case to me too.


If you don’t get a grenade dropped on you, your location will be mortared in minutes.

Didn't Russia announce they are going full out in creating an automated battle force. The Iranians have shown the way.

That is much better. Watched a lot of his videos. He does not strike me as the type to just abandon a family.
