Will you keep this same tune when they've had enough and use some of there huge stash of nuclear weapons? Putin is not going to use nuclear weapons on Ukrainian soil, he wants that land. He is going to use it on those that are helping and or funding. This is not going to end well and you think it's comical.

We’re you not aware of the msm articles about ukraines nazi problem prior to this war?
Its a big issue in the Ukrainian army as showcased by the many us foreign fighters who have gone over there and then were asked about it in interviews. Now most of these guys didnt have a problem with it, but when asked an honest question they gave an honest answer talked about how prominent it was in the Ukrainian culture.
Here is just one of several who have touched on it when asked. Great interview with US black marine active involvement in Ukraine.

Americans who care about collapsing Russia are true retards. The USSR is dead, they aren’t a threat to us. You’re a fricking retard who sips on neo con look aid who wouldn’t even piss on you if you were on fire. They genuinely hate you’re existence

Was the aim of the counter offensive to take Moscow?

Because US naval vessels are just going to let random boats get that close right?

Anyone over 40 would remember that the USSR was twice the physical size and had a larger population than the US, albeit a smaller economy. Of course, they devoted a much larger share of that economy to their military ....

Good point. They might not have to do a thing. Just hang out and let our "new" Navy in the South China Sea run into them.

I'm sure you are joking but this is actually way more likely to happen

Don't look now, the mighty Russian Navy lost the missile cruiser Askold even before it was launched. Hit by two cruise missiles while still in drydock.

I’m not sure Russia’s Navy has ever been mighty.
They’ve gotten their shite shoved in during pretty much every major conflict Russia has ever fought.

What's really comical is you think Russia is anywhere close to losing anything in the Ukraine. Good grief.
Even the U.S. is now involved in trying to talk Ukraine out of this fiasco with some kind of cease fire bargain bullshite that ain't going to fly.

I do, but only from the standpoint of finding it amusing that a country actively involved in a war is losing more of their ships to their own drydocks than to the enemy.

That's because the Soviet Union's population was 3 times the Russian Federation's population and China was a bunch of agrarian yokels until the 1980's.

Fun facts:
Russia has less that 1/2 the population of the USA, and 1/10 the population of China.
Yet for 70 years, they were considered our main rivals as a global superpower.
No.
Russia was one Soviet of the USSR, which was considered our rival. The USSR had about the same size population as the USA.

It hasn't. Russians have never really been seafaring people. They are a land army....and not a particularly good one at that. Their 3 main weapons have always been distance, winter, and bodies.
