Yes, as a matter of fact. Or to put it another way, if Russia could have wiped out half of Ukraine by now, why haven't they beaten their army (which numbers far less than half the population of Ukraine)?Nice shifting of goalposts there, right... so Ukraine isn't losing any soldiers, the 1400 they lost yesterday and the 600 so far today are just imaginary.
Russia just tosses missiles around randomly is what you're sticking with so.
And again, Russia isn't just tossing missiles around. Russia is targeting civilians.
Right. If it was just some American military, then we'd only be talking about military targets. Right? But Russia is also targeting civilian targets (in their desperation). So the US told their civilians to get out.So after nearly five months of this conflict the Americans just decided now to move out, nothing to do with US and NATO "advisors" getting killed at the Ukrainian Air Force 'Officer's club'...right
Really, you need to quit and have your bosses send an adult here.
Russia wants Ukraine to become its lapdog country, so you try to divert attention to the US.What Third World country status? the issue is you Yanks and the rest of your lapdog countries thought that Russia would fold in the first week of sanctions, that it would be reduced both economically and militarily, yet here we are nearly five months later and the only countries suffering are the EU idiots who got tricked into following the good ol' USA with "crippling" sanctions, now the Dollar is at parity with the Euro or even higher at times, US are selling fracked gas and oil to EU at vastly inflated prices, all because they thought Russia would collapse.
If you think that sanctions on Russia are causing any serious problems to the US or Europe, you're simply dreaming. As for Russia as a Third World country, since your standard of living is several notches below Kazakhstan, I'd say that you're not doing very well. The ruble is a joke. And if the price of oil ever drops, Russia is going to be screwed. Really, a Third World country with only one resource that the world wants (as tell me, who anywhere wants Russian manufactured goods?) isn't in a position to mock any developed country at all. Is it?
It's fun to watch you throw everything you possibly can at the wall hoping something will stick. But what you actually and undeniably have is a tinpot Third World dictatorship invading a country to shore up its failing leader domestically. Simple as that. Everyone knows it. And it's too bad. Too damn bad.
