    The War in Ukraine

    It is the brave CEO that will risk his multi million dollar cushy position to start building without a contract hoping that someone will buy.

    The War in Ukraine

    Yes on the whole it is cautionary, like Animal Farm and 1984, but that doesn't mean there is nothing that can be taken from them. Even Terry Gilliams "Brazil" has things we should take note of.

    The War in Ukraine

    Heinlein had a point. National service before you can be come a (voting) citizen which is needed before you can be in an elected position. So maybe before you can be a congressman, representative, VP or President, either you have to have served or you must have a close (child/grandchild/spouse)...

    The War in Ukraine

    "Why do we need Ukrainian victory? Ill take another 400,000 to 800,000 casualties and half or double the platform losses that the Russians have suffered I owe you an apology - I read the above as referring to Ukrainian casualties. The top quote clarifies your position greatly. And if I...

    The War in Ukraine

    "Why do we need Ukrainian victory? Ill take another 400,000 to 800,000 casualties and half or double the platform losses that the Russians have suffered. It would be the same if we were supporting India against China or some other conflict" "I'm about 40 yrs too old. But that is an idiotic...

    The War in Ukraine

    Russia can surrender or withdraw any time they want also. The difference is if Russia withdraws, they are left whole (territorially) and can continue to exist. If Ukraine surrenders, they cease to exist as a country, their population will become persecuted, tortured and killed, enslaved with...

    The War in Ukraine

    Let's flip that assumption. Why do you want Russian Victory? Does that make NATO more secure? Safer? And no, it is not the same at all. India and China are not sharing borders with NATO members who can invoke Article 5 and compel us to become involved.

    The dimensions are such they (and the supporting control unit) could be shipped in a high top 40' seacan or OTR semi-trailer to Estonia or Lithuania or Poland. Either flat with 2 or 3 inside an 8' wide container, or the larger / wider 900kg of explosives Sea Baby 2024 angled as shown. A 3...

    The War in Ukraine

    So we need to acknowledge it and not live in a unicorns and rainbow universe where we think we are adequately prepared with deep enough magazines and stocks, trained appropriately for 21st century warfare, and able to actually maintain what equipment we have. Plus of course, only spend on the...

    The War in Ukraine

    W. T. Actual F! Forcing Ukraine to play by its "degrade Russia but not win thanks for the blood" rules was bad enough but to STILL be actively funding Putin's war machine is just obscene. Essentially DOD is paying to have Muscovy kill Ukrainian civilians...

    The War in Ukraine

    All it takes is enough to propose an amendment and pass it. Granted, if they are really willing to push it through without any amendments it could pass. However even if all the MAGA crowd can do is filibuster it could delay passage until the next then the following 2 week vacation.
