    So why hasn’t Russia taken over Ukraine?

    And why are you bringing Stalingrad into this? You are literally saying it’s a good thing that Russia is producing more arms etc and then saying Russia doesn’t tend to operate by trying to use overwhelming numbers? Huh?

      That isn’t their military goal, I know that planning military is beyond most American minds, but sometimes war aims aren’t “take everything”

      And why are you bringing Stalingrad into this?

      Because you’re the one who began by spouting the “human waves” Nazi myth that began in Stalingrad

      I know that it’s really difficult for you Lemmitors to have a thought going, but I’ve heard that if you rub two braincells together you’d be surprised at the results. Don’t strain yourself though

          I could lay it out in exacting detail but something tells me you would just continue to post Reddit tier gotchas like in the rest of the thread

          So instead I’m going to make it as simple as possible for your Reddit brain to understand:

          Annexing three Black Sea provinces =|= capturing the entirety of a country

      So why hasn’t Russia taken over Ukraine?

      Because that isn’t their goal despite what the NATO disinformation mills would have you think.

      You are literally saying it’s a good thing that Russia is producing more arms etc and then saying Russia doesn’t tend to operate by trying to use overwhelming numbers? Huh?

      Bombs aren’t people. You can pummel an enemy with a metric shitfuckton of shells without sending in human waves.

          So what is their goal?

          Demilitarize Ukkkraine, which is being puppeteered by the world’s largest rogue state and exporter of terrorism: the United SSnakes of AmeriKKKA.

          They have already annexed new chunks of Ukraine.

          idgaf

          They tried to push into Kyiv.

          To force Ukkkraine to negotiate for peace after the Banderite entity broke both minsk accords and the Great Satan broke the Budapest Memorandum. A process that was underway until Boris Johnson twisted their arm to make them keep sending people into the meat grinder

          Why should anyone believe anything they are saying when they’ve so consistently demonstrated that they can’t be trusted?

          Because they have consistently shown they can be trusted, unlike the conniving Nazi Arming and Training Organization.

          Are you still pretending this is a “special military operation” that is for peace keeping lol

          yes-chad

          So why is Russia sending in hundreds of thousands of troops?

          Source or stfu.

      Where does this overwhelming numbers thing come from?

      Remember when the war started and all the newsmedia was making a big deal out of Russia invading with 150,000 soldiers? Meanwhile, Ukraine had triple that.

      You ever think your world view might be a little… curated?
