Tick tock, Vlad. Hope your affairs are in order. You won’t be alive much longer.

I must say, if you are trying to come across as a complete idiot, you're doing a splendid job. Citing a tweet that was taken back within minutes? Pretending "Poland is easily able to destroy Russia completely"? Like, how? Carpet bombing them with pierogi and dill pickles?

DP. Let me tell you a little story. You'll like this one. It's all about pierogi and dill pickles, and it's not from 1938. It will make you laugh!

Imagine if Poland entered the war with 247 Leopard II's with well-trained crews started rolling towards Moscow? What would stop them? But oh, that's not all. The Polish government has a few tricks up it's sleeve.

"Hyundai Rotem is planning to partner with the Polish government to develop and produce 800 K2 Black Panther class tanks."

For those who are not familiar, the South Korean K2 is considered comparable to a top-of-the-line US Abrams M1 or German Leopard 2A7. Now imagine that scene - 247 Leopard 2's, plus 800 K2's.. that's a lot of pierogi. Oh, but wait! It gets even better! Poland signed a deal for not 800, but 1000 tanks!

"1,000 K2 tanks, 672 K9 self-propelled howitzers, and 48 FA-50PL light combat aircraft, with production benefits for Poland as well."

Hmm. But I'm sure you're telling yourself Poland has no air power.. well.. except for the F-35's.. but they only have 8.. So I'm sure you're curious what else does Poland have?

Main battle tanks: 1000 (Leopard 2A4, PT-91, PT-91MA1, T-72, T-72A, T-72M1, T-72M1D)
Artillery: 1200 (120 mm (5 in) or greater)
Air Force Jet Fighters: 128 ( 32 MiG-29A/UB, 48 F-16 C/D Block 52+, 48 Su-22M-4K/UM3K )
Navy Frigates: 2 (Oliver Hazard Perry Class)
Corvettes: 3 (Kaszub class, Tarantul Class)
Submarines: 5 (Kilo Class, Kobben Class)

That's a lot of pickles..

Over 95% of Russia’s army is now on the ground in Ukraine, and they still cannot even take Bakhmut.

Russia’s army in 2023 is pathetic. Pathetic and unmotivated.

Poland would steam-roll Russia’s army in less than one week.

And they would gladly crush Russia; Poland is thirsty for revenge.

And yet they continue to ask for more and more military assistance.

Why do they need so much money to steamroll over a pathetic unmotivated army?

But one can certainly understand why Poland is salty. It used to own part of Ukraine, and then it didn't. When you take chunks of Poland away from them, Poland's feelings get hurt.

You keep trying sell us on your tortured logic but you seem to be completely unaware that you are not making any sense! Russia has a crap ton of weapons. Even if they can only manage to use 1/4 of those weapons effectively due to corruption and incompetence that is still a crap ton of weaponry that needs to be defended against.

Or to look at things another way: even an untrained lone wolf teen shooter should be responded to by a fully equipped SWAT team even though the shooter is completely outmatched. You crush your enemies quickly with overwhelming force, you don’t pull any punches. Something Russians don’t seem to be able to accomplish lol!

So....sounds like it's not as pathetic as you say? With a crap ton of weapons and all? Perhaps too big of a nut to swallow for, giggle, Poland, of all people? Or were you creative-licensing?

You are trying to argue logically with Comrade Trollski.

But Comrade Trollski is adept at the twisted art of “Russian pretzel-logic.” The rules of logic and reason do not apply to him.

He only follows orders from Adolf Putin.

I do not think Russia will stop. They do not care about death, do not mourn the dead. It is generally accepted they do not actually feel attachment or “love” as we call it in the west for other humans. They are like Scientologists on steroids. They are not like other humans on this planet.

Um. Yeah. About that...

Russian forces have lost about half of their T-72B and T-72B3M main battle tanks
The losses amount to "the equivalent of around 16 tank regiments worth"
Moscow had moved 50-year-old T-62 tanks from "deep storage" to be deployed for use by its Southern Grouping of Forces
https://www.newsweek.com/russia-lost-half-t72b-tanks-one-year-war-ukraine-western-tanks-1782314

A Ministry of Defence intellgence update said Russia had taken 800 T-62 main battle tanks (MBTs), first introduced in 1961, out of storage ‘to make up for previous losses’
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russian-losses-ukraine-tanks-b2295093.html
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Chs1NRSyuLs

Russia Mocked for Rolling Out T-54 Tanks From 1940s: 'What Next, Horses?'
video it said showed T-54 and T-55 tanks being taken westwards by train from the town of Arsenyev in Russia's far eastern Primorsky Krai region.
https://www.newsweek.com/russia-ukraine-tanks-t-54-war-1789730

If Russia is really pulling T-54's and T-55's out of Cold War stocks out of the Far East region, that means they already burned through their T-72 and T-62 stocks out of the western storage facilities.

Although the Russians upgraded the T-62's, it was mainly additional armor and night-vision. It would be highly unlikely the main gun would be upgraded due to the engineering involved. That means they can't 'fire on the move' effectively with a stabilized main gun. It also means that they probably can't hit anything with accuracy past 1.6 km (half that range at night). The Leopard could easily pick them off and I'm not sure if the T-62 can even penetrate a Leopard at 1.6 km? Or even at 800m?

My guess is Xi knows this, Putin overplayed his hand at the summit by asking for too much (ammo, weapons, troops, aircraft, etc.), and Xi left Moscow laughing at him. That's why Xi is inviting all the 'stans' to the new Kool Kids Club in Mandarin.

The Chinese president extended the offer to the "first China-Central Asia summit", scheduled for May, in similar telegrammes sent on Monday and Tuesday to the leaders of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

Have you considered a career in writing for Harlequin Press?

I was bummed during the Trump election and (first) Ukraine invasion when the Russian trolls were out on Yahoo in force. One of the other bloggers said it was the St. Petersburg team and they said the Russian trolls actually got paid for blogging!!!! Like a full-time job!!!! WTF!!!!!

*sigh* Not fair. But I guess working for a dictatorship (or the trump campaign) is the only way you get to work propaganda full-time...

The losses amount to "the equivalent of around 16 tank regiments worth"
Moscow had moved 50-year-old T-62 tanks from "deep storage" to be deployed for use by its Southern Grouping of Forces

A Ministry of Defence intellgence update said Russia had taken 800 T-62 main battle tanks (MBTs), first introduced in 1961, out of storage ‘to make up for previous losses’

Russia Mocked for Rolling Out T-54 Tanks From 1940s: 'What Next, Horses?'
video it said showed T-54 and T-55 tanks being taken westwards by train from the town of Arsenyev in Russia's far eastern Primorsky Krai region.

If Russia is really pulling T-54's and T-55's out of Cold War stocks out of the Far East region, that means they already burned through their T-72 and T-62 stocks out of the western storage facilities.

Although the Russians upgraded the T-62's, it was mainly additional armor and night-vision. It would be highly unlikely the main gun would be upgraded due to the engineering involved. That means they can't 'fire on the move' effectively with a stabilized main gun. It also means that they probably can't hit anything with accuracy past 1.6 km (half that range at night). The Leopard could easily pick them off and I'm not sure if the T-62 can even penetrate a Leopard at 1.6 km? Or even at 800m?

My guess is Xi knows this, Putin overplayed his hand at the summit by asking for too much (ammo, weapons, troops, aircraft, etc.), and Xi left Moscow laughing at him. That's why Xi is inviting all the 'stans' to the new Kool Kids Club in Mandarin.

The Chinese president extended the offer to the "first China-Central Asia summit", scheduled for May, in similar telegrammes sent on Monday and Tuesday to the leaders of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

And the reason you need billions of dollars to fight such an under-equipped army is...?

It is generally accepted they do not actually feel attachment or “love” as we call it in the west for other humans. They are like Scientologists on steroids. They are not like other humans on this planet.

Isn't this exactly what you said about Iraqis before? Muslims don't see death the way we do. They don't love their children the way we do? They don't care about dying. They are barely human.

This must be why, twenty years after Iraq, there has never really been a reckoning of the tremendous, heartbreaking damage the US has wrought upon the country. Not of the government figures that pushed for it, and not for the craven media that followed them unquestioningly. It's because the dead Iraqis don't register on the human scale to Americans.

What exactly does 'Ukraine win' mean?

But even if the coming attack were to fail, it does not matter.

Poland is waiting, ready, and easily able to destroy Russia completely:

Tick tock, Vlad. Hope your affairs are in order. You won’t be alive much longer.

I must say, if you are trying to come across as a complete idiot, you're doing a splendid job. Citing a tweet that was taken back within minutes? Pretending "Poland is easily able to destroy Russia completely"? Like, how? Carpet bombing them with pierogi and dill pickles?

DP. Let me tell you a little story. You'll like this one. It's all about pierogi and dill pickles, and it's not from 1938. It will make you laugh!

Imagine if Poland entered the war with 247 Leopard II's with well-trained crews started rolling towards Moscow? What would stop them? But oh, that's not all. The Polish government has a few tricks up it's sleeve.

"Hyundai Rotem is planning to partner with the Polish government to develop and produce 800 K2 Black Panther class tanks."
https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2020/01/205_282115.html

For those who are not familiar, the South Korean K2 is considered comparable to a top-of-the-line US Abrams M1 or German Leopard 2A7. Now imagine that scene - 247 Leopard 2's, plus 800 K2's.. that's a lot of pierogi. Oh, but wait! It gets even better! Poland signed a deal for not 800, but 1000 tanks!

"1,000 K2 tanks, 672 K9 self-propelled howitzers, and 48 FA-50PL light combat aircraft, with production benefits for Poland as well."
https://breakingdefense.com/2022/07/polands-massive-tank-artillery-and-jet-deal-with-s-korea-comes-in-shadow-of-ukraine-war/

Hmm. But I'm sure you're telling yourself Poland has no air power.. well.. except for the F-35's.. but they only have 8.. So I'm sure you're curious what else does Poland have?

Main battle tanks: 1000 (Leopard 2A4, PT-91, PT-91MA1, T-72, T-72A, T-72M1, T-72M1D)
Artillery: 1200 (120 mm (5 in) or greater)
Air Force Jet Fighters: 128 ( 32 MiG-29A/UB, 48 F-16 C/D Block 52+, 48 Su-22M-4K/UM3K )
Navy Frigates: 2 (Oliver Hazard Perry Class)
Corvettes: 3 (Kaszub class, Tarantul Class)
Submarines: 5 (Kilo Class, Kobben Class)

That's a lot of pickles..

Over 95% of Russia’s army is now on the ground in Ukraine, and they still cannot even take Bakhmut.

Russia’s army in 2023 is pathetic. Pathetic and unmotivated.

Poland would steam-roll Russia’s army in less than one week.

And they would gladly crush Russia; Poland is thirsty for revenge.

And yet they continue to ask for more and more military assistance.

Why do they need so much money to steamroll over a pathetic unmotivated army?

But one can certainly understand why Poland is salty. It used to own part of Ukraine, and then it didn't. When you take chunks of Poland away from them, Poland's feelings get hurt.

You keep trying sell us on your tortured logic but you seem to be completely unaware that you are not making any sense! Russia has a crap ton of weapons. Even if they can only manage to use 1/4 of those weapons effectively due to corruption and incompetence that is still a crap ton of weaponry that needs to be defended against.

Or to look at things another way: even an untrained lone wolf teen shooter should be responded to by a fully equipped SWAT team even though the shooter is completely outmatched. You crush your enemies quickly with overwhelming force, you don’t pull any punches. Something Russians don’t seem to be able to accomplish lol!

Um. Yeah. About that...

Its Schrodinger's Russia. Russia is both going to invade Europe all the way to the Pyrenees and collapse at Bakhmut at the same time.

The warmongers just toss out whatever they think will stick today, even if it directly contradicts what they said yesterday. There arguments are fundamentally jelly, that can not be grasped.

How about this.
Russia meddled in our election.
And now we are enjoying watching them get their asses handed to them.
It’s a delight to hear about their embarrassing failures.
Also: billions-smillions. It’s a drop in the bucket for our defense spending. Dollars sent to grind down Russia are well spent.

[Anonymous]

What I find amusing with you guys who support this and thinking Russia is getting their butts kicked is that you have no idea what Russia can do. Do you remember Syria? They flattened the land there. They are strong. They are really playing games, yes it’s terrible but that’s what it is. Ukrain is a baby compared to them. You guys honestly think Russia is going balls to the wall trying to win? If they send it their fighter jets, it will be over in a few days. They are only disturbing the area and causing trouble. It’s the sad truth.

And costing the US taxpayers…we are crazy enough to keep pumping money into something that will take decades to settle. We never learn!
