- Russia’s army has grown bigger despite sustaining losses when it invaded Ukraine, says a US general.
- US Army Gen. Christopher Cavoli said the Russian army “is actually now larger — by 15 percent.”
- “Russia is on track to command the largest military on the continent,” Cavoli said.
Define army. Do kids without training or equipment count?
To Putin? Absolutely.
This has been their MO since before the soviets. When they failed the lightning raid on Kyiv, they went back to their old tactics- relying on attrition and simply assuming tbhat any losses can be replaced - which is far from true if Ukraine.
The IDF seems to think so.
Judging by their actions the IDF’s definition of enemy combatant seems to extend all the way down to fetuses still in their mother’s womb, so their actions are not really a reasonable metric for comparison with normal soldiers in a normal war.
Wars driven mainly by massive racism and with a background of in the aggressor country for over half a century the target etnicity having been relentlessly protrayed as less than human (“human animals” as Israeli members of government openly said) are conducted outside any and all rationality, much less humanity, whilst wars driven mainly by greed still have some rationality, if only because even any last minute attempts in such wars by the leaders of the aggressor nation to turn their soldiers into monsters towards The Enemy to try and win, are nowhere as effective at creating monsters as conscripting as soldiers young adults who have grown up in an environment swamped with extremelly racist views of the etnicity of The Enemy.
For all the evil the Russians have done in Ukraine, their actions seem to be mainly driven by greed and a general disregard for human life, whilst Israeli soldiers’ actions seem to be mainly driven by extreme racist hate.
Zelensky’s regime of NATO servants has not yet called for children. The age of mobilization in Ukraine is 25 years old. But people from the age of 18 are not allowed out of the country
Imagine simping for Putin as hard as this хуйло does. Tongue so far up Vladimir’s ass, he can taste his breakfast.
That’s even further than Solovyev.
