    I sometimes wonder if people talking about a "stalemate" in war know chess at all. Typically, one side has a crushing advantage, but the other side cannot make a legal move. What is that even supposed to mean in the context of a real war?
    Though I realize that chess was originally inspired by war, it is just a game and it does not readily lend itself to metaphors.
    In addition, stalemate really never happens to world class chess players for example in the world championships, but in appears to happen all the time in the leading wars that are currently underway, most of all this one.

    Delusional Russia hasn’t used its main military personnel yet they also produce there own weapons high gas prices means Putin is flooded with cash how in the world is Ukraine going to get enough arm’s delivered to achieve such a task. Im not sure Nato could achieve such a task. Nato may have the men power and equipments but when shit get really and the beaming missile with hundreds nukes ready to take out London Paris they would negotiate peace right away.

    You all are stupid, since the beginning of the war, the only thing we hear from western media is russia is losing, and Russians are losing 100s of thousands ofsoldiers, etc. But what we see is russian taking territories.

    Ukrainians will defend bakhmut, wink, we know how that went just like the last ones. But hey ukraine will will 😅.

    Also for those that dont know, the 14000 ppl that died in donbass and luhanks region since 2014 before russia joined were reported by the west UN i believe so we can't say it is a russian propaganda.

    Also you all are calling the eastern part of Ukraine russian backed separatists but then again you are supporting kosovo you call them freedom fighter, they are fighting for their independence and nato supporting them. Iraq Afghanistan they wanted nato off their land they fought back but hey you guys called them terrorists.

  17. @TonyM540

    December 24, 2023 at 11:34 pm

    It’s partly because we didn’t help Ukraine in 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea that we have this war now. Russia sees a weak point and keeps pushing. It’s an expansionist state and must be stopped now. We are certainly not doing enough to support Ukraine. Western governments could be actively supporting the Ukrainian foreign legion by a) helping them recruit trained personnel, b) paying the personnel a wage and paying their mortgage at home, supplying them with the right equipment. C) paying their flights and accommodation while training .d) assisting the Ukrainian troops in R&R in order that they can rotate out of combat and visit their family’s.

    This guys numbers are wrong. Ukraine HAD 700,000 troops. They now have 100,000 tops. 600,000 have been killed, imprisoned, or have run for the borders.

  25. @Dollymixture99

    December 24, 2023 at 11:34 pm

    The few tanks we are sending will be decimated on arrival. The Abrams will arrive after Putin has complete control of Ukraine.

    December 24, 2023 at 11:34 pm

    These two pansies are exactly why we will never win against Russia. 1: they are weak men you can tell by their voice and clothes 2: they stand for men’s tampons. The west will never win a war against Russia as long as we are the champions of men’s tampons.

    Ben Hodges is the sort of commander the west needs. He has a deep and wide understanding of the issues and the likely outcomes.

  31. @jonathanfreeman9169

    December 24, 2023 at 11:34 pm

    I agree with General Hodges that Ukraine needs to retake Crimea for its own peace of mind and National Security. That being said taking Crimea will be no easy task. The Ukrainians don't have the assets for an amphibious assault. Nor do they have an air force capable of achieving air superiority over Crimea. That leaves a ground assault as the only viable option. There is only one 5 miles of passable land and that gap will become an absolute killing zone for Russian artillery. This war has taught the only thing the Russians are good at is overwhelming blanket fire artillery strikes. Advantage Russia.

    Crimea was always Ukrainian territory since inmemorial time.. Catherine the great took it in 1870s but Nikita gave it back in 1952.. he said it needed to be part of Ukraine.. Glory to Ukraine,,!!!

  39. @natetaylor9002

    December 24, 2023 at 11:34 pm

    Why does everyone ignore that Ukraine is running out of troops? All the vehicles/jets/tanks/artillery doesn't matter if you don't have an army to use it.

    Well, maybe I'm not seeing the picture clearly. I guess we'll know for sure once Ukraine's 'Big Offensive' succeeds or fails!

    Has anybody thought about the possibility of the slow supply of weapons being planned? Russia is like a barrel of powder. The western countries are slowly depleting it of resources and hoping to create internal fights in Russia. This approach is much too cynical for western media and public opinion because it means they are intentionally waiting for hundreds of thousands more Russians ad Ukrainians to die so they are just playing dumb and undecided when in fact they know exactly what they are doing and it might actually be the best option they have

    December 24, 2023 at 11:34 pm

    🙄 you should at least get the opening right. At the time of the decision of making the Crimea peninsula a part of the Ukrainian Soviet republic Khrushchev did not yet have the authority to make such decision, it was some committee, also it was a land swap to simplify administration.
    More important than that – it is irrelevant in the context of the 2014+ events! Ukraine just happens to be a sovereign country and driving your tank onto their lawn is Nono-land. Here the discussion could and should end.
    For the sake of entertainment we could add here that in ´94 the Budapest memorandum was signed, in which sovereignty was explicitly granted to a couple of post-soviet countries including Ukraine and as part of the deal these countries gave up their soviet-inherited nukes. Later in the 2000s, Putin is on the record, saying that Ukraine of course is a sovereign country and brother nation of Russia and whatnot
