      There is no kind of option like "non pro russian non pro Ukrainian" ruzzia attacked Ukraine it`s a fact "numero uno", second one, if u r not pro Ukrainian than u r pro ruzzian, as we see ruzzia waist a lot of money to have there "pro ruzzi propaganda agents" in hell of a bunch countries and USA is not exception here!!!
      So every one who saying that "ruzzia not that bad" or "everything is unclear" is one of two, or stuped or pro ruzzian simple as that, coz if u not baned in a google and u NOT into conspiracy - u can simply google history of wars that was started by ruzzia and ull notice pattern...

      The US has never won any war since the WW2. Even WW2 was won by the Russians & China.
      The US lost the Korean war against a very impoverished army that had zero air & sea power.
      The US lost the Vietnam war against fighters wearing straw hats
      The US lost the Afghanistan war against fighters in sandals & baggy pants without underwear
      The US only has one strategy for war, to bomb everything and everyone into oblivion before sending its armour followed by infantry. Hence why the Americans could not understand why Russia took a longer time to advance in Ukraine in early 2022, reason being Russia cares about civilians because those civilians are mostly ethnic Russians.
      The US is an Axis of Evil & Disgrace to humanity, period.
      The US never takes mines out, thats BS. The US dropped more than 2 million tonnes of cluster bomb in Laos that is still killing civilians today, not forgetting the land mines.
      Last but not least, majority of Americans have no cow sense, let along have common sense.

    This fellow Daniel is a great warrior and a superb communicator. He makes warfare understandable even to people who were never in the military. In this video, I wish the editors had allowed Daniel's views to be aired about how the war is going to become more unconventional with the introduction of cluster munitions. Daniel made a great point about how he expects the bomblets to be packed into drones. It would have been interesting to hear how the Russians might defend against such a weapon, and also if the war goes unconventional, what weapons can we expect to see the Russians introduce to the battlefield. Watching 20 minutes of Daniel's commentary on this war is far more informative that a week of reports from television news.

      We'll just drop the atomic bomb on NATO. I am from Russia, my cousin lives in Ukraine. Until 2014, we drank beer together on weekends (the distance between us is 70 km). The division into countries was formal. Like states in the US. There are Russian people in Ukraine, and Russian people in Russia. Since 2014, the United States and NATO have intervened in the affairs of Ukraine and trouble has begun. The border was closed. Millions of relatives, brothers and sisters were separated. 4 million moved to Russia. The rest cannot move. The military in Ukraine catches everyone and sends them to war. Only the United States is to blame for everything, they need resources. And cut off China from the resources in the north.

    • @BMF6889

      I don't believe Ukraine will use cluster bomblets on drones for three reasons: first cluster bomblets used by artillery are far more effective than using them on individual drones, and secondly, Ukraine would have to find a way to open up an artillery shell to get to the bomblets, but most importantly is that the bomblet is no more effective than a hand grenade of which Ukraine already had thousands of drones configured to carry grenades so they already have a "weapon" that is as effective as a single bomblet.
      I was a career Marine infantry officer with 3 years in combat. I was a Marine platoon commander in Vietnam 1968-69,. Hard year. Lost a lot of good Marines killed and wounded but we dominated our area of operations. When I arrived in 1968 our area was very dangerous. When I left in 1969 the level of fighting had been dramatically reduced.
      I also spent two years in Latin America supporting counter-insurgency operations of a host nation in the middle of a major civil war.
      I agree with Dan that artillery is more important that close air support because it is far more responsive than getting aircraft on target. However, aircraft carry 500, 1,000, and 2,000 pound bombs and other precision weapons that artillery lacks.
      Another point that Dan made was that experience is at time more important that the technology they are using. Technology does give you an advantage, but it is experience in using it that makes it even more effective.
      During the Korean War, the MIG-15 was technologically superior to the American F-86, but F-86 pilots were better trained and far more experienced than the MIG pilots. Many of the F-86 pilots had flown combat missions in WW II and were able to leverage their experience in using the new F-86 technology.
      On the other hand, in Vietnam, the US rotated individuals out of Vietnam after being there for a year. But the enemy we faced had been fighting there for years and knew the terrain and were far more experienced than newly arrived replacements. We had better technology but they had better experience and after 10 years, they forces us to the peace talks, and they eventually won.
      Given the option between better technology and hard earned combat experience, I'll take the experience every time.

      The moment Russia feels it's existence is at stake in a military confrontation, the world ends 7000nukes. The moment the USA believes its existence is threatened, the world ends when nukes fly.
      Only way to crush and end a super power like Russia or the USA is by economic warfare and that's exactly what RAND corporation suggested to the deep state neocon dogs by using Ukraine. That's exactly what USA did and the results were surprisingly opposite in nature where the west is crumbling economically and Russia just brushed it off

      Ukraine has more tank now than when the war began, thanks to generous Russian donations.
      Mind you though, that war time production in WWII peaked in late 1944, when the Allies already were clearly winning. The only tie any side in a war won't ask for more tanks is when they have enough for every single soldier to have one of their own, with a spare in the garage.

This war is lost by Ukraine. no matter how many tanks and artillery pieces they give her, they have nowhere else to take human soldiers. According to US military sources, Ukraine’s losses already amount to 500,000 people. a huge part of the male population fled the country, the same part is hiding from being drafted into the army. while in Russia an additional influx of volunteers to the front is expected. the Russians will never leave the fascists alone, they will destroy them to the very end. this is the basis of Russian culture. this is the basis of the history of Russia.

    The purchase of higher quality equipment by soldiers goes back centuries. Knights would buy their own armour fitted to their needs. Soldiers, mainly officers would have their uniforms tailored for them in military approved attire, but more fashionable or quality. You can trace that back to a lot of militaries. Imperial Japanese officers famously had Katanas refitted with Army fittings, or perhaps swords smithed for them depending on their expenses.

    Every military academy in the world teaches *Clausewitz doctrine:* victory is achieved by destruction of enemy forces, territory is irrelevant unless it is used for destruction of enemy forces.
    Giving up territory is still a victory if enemy forces are destroyed in the process.
    Taking territory can be the result of victory, but itself is not a victory.
    Kherson and Kharkov were Russian victories even though Russians gave up territory.
    Bakhmut battle was never about taking Bakhmut.
    Withukrainestanders keep talking about territory because they don't understand strategy and are coping.

      Are you kidding me? That’s BS. Giving up territory would mean giving an enemy with extra defense. Russia giving up territory to Ukraine will give them extra defense! Territory matters!
      Clausewitz Doctrine has a serious flaws since the military doctrine right now uses local environments and terrain at their advantage.

    It is November 27, 2023. I have not heard about Russian soldiers buying their own gear for a long time (it does not mean it is not happening). But I just heard reports from Ukrainian soldiers (published in Bild, German newspaper): Ukrainian soldiers have to buy not just gear, they have to pay for housing where they are stationed in, food, repair equipment on their own expenses.

  • @imborad5350
    @imborad5350 Před 10 měsíci +70

    The guy is mostly right that it wasn't a strategic loss for Russia in Kherson. Also, Kharkiv wasn't an overall strategic loss while being a tactical win for UA simply because negligible losses of Russians that retreated in order and inflicted more losses on the UAF with artillery etc. It could've been a strategic loss for Russians if at the time UAF found a way to expand their offensive while Russian positions weren't yet ready. That said even then would be a stretch calling it a strategic win cause of how they forces would end up exhausted and at best they could inflict 1 on 1 losses for a brief period. Plus Russians prevented this scenario playing when at the time they sent Wagner to pin down UAF in Bakhmut. Don't think they have been ordered to take Bakhmut at the time and this situation with Wagner today maybe shows that. Wagner overruled the Russian MOD and started doing its own thing forcing RAF to support them but also taking a lot of causalities a thing for which RAF Generals would be fired for incompetence. But why am saying that probably it wasn't the plan of Russian MOD to take Bakhmut at the time. Simply because it was clear since last august that it would turn into a war of attrition ww1 style and in war of attrition wins who has the better end of the causalities, loss of equipment equation, plus who has more artillery, prepared defenses and larger pool of manpower ultimately wins. The taking of land is in this case is at best circumstantial if not unnecessary if it brings more losses. And even while the causality equation for the majority of the conflict was on Russian advantage cases like Bakhmut lower the advantage for the Russian side even if they still have the overall advantage in losses because for political and economic reasons for now the mobilization pool is far lesser than the Ukranian one. So they need to be as careful as possible if they don't mobilize yet again and that makes other battles of the scale of Bakhmut improbable on the Russian side to initiate. As for Cluster munitions, f16 etc all this can and probably will be mitigated one way or another. First Cluster munitions aren't that of on advantage against trenches and how the Russian defense is setup second RAF will also scale up the use of Cluster munitions that is best used usually on an offensive force and even using them on drones won't change that much as Russian electronic warfare is shown to be a real deal. F16 need to go against the best defensive system in the world so doubt they will use them in real offensive operation. Plus takes years to form a experienced and efficient pilot and the problem remains that US doctrine for major offensive is formed on air superiority and support. There isn't a clear way on how UAF should use tanks etc like this guy says as they go against an armed force trained as an cohesive system that also continuously adapts etc...

      This is pretty much heavy copium. If this was a strategically insignificant for the Russians to lose Kharkiv region then why on earth they would advance on that area? Just to push Ukrainians elsewhere for negligible gain, strech the Ukrainians out? They lost Kharkiv and Izium to capture Bakhmut? Seriously? It's so silly, because now Bakhmut is slowly being surrounded by Ukrainians - or atleast gain favorable positions on the high ground.
      The invaders have literally no reason to push Khrakiv area again just because they lack manpower and they have instability issues within Russia itself - the only thing they can do is see hope that Ukraine will negotiate, but they won't anytime soon. It's a game of who will collapse first. All in all it has been a failure for the Russians. Kiev wasn't a diversion, Kherson was a plunder and Kharkiv was negligence.
