Seriously I've asked this of you so many times.... what do you want to actually see from Ukraine and the west?
You constantly belittle the Ukraine, bitch about having refugees taking aid and your finances, winge about the EU and nato..( and the west ). what in the hell would you like to see ?, mr Russian who apparently knows all about russian bots and paid for posters ?
I'm beginning to lthink.... out of all the posters here.. you're the most likely to be a paid for poster ...
My armchair analysis of:
@SandisLL
He wants the west to win the war with the help of Ukraine not for Ukraine to win the war with the help of the West.
He's a good poster when he's talking about military equipment and systems. Some of his criticisms about not trying to end the war are valid... but he's in... One of those eastern European countries in the firing line.
Weird slavic rivalry or history or something prevents him from liking the country of Ukraine and he just wants to see Russia crushed because of where he lives and he knows that we're capable of it and finds it unacceptable that we're not just straight up calling the nuclear bluff.
People forget this isn't just a "spectator event" for some of the posters here.
Anyone remember that Latvian poster that quit the dog because of the toll this thread was having on his mental health? He's come back under a new account but hasn't resurfaced in this thread. Complained that his country was basically a NATO buffer zone for the more important countries to gear up while his country got fucked in the ass waiting for them?
That dude was normal when this started. Sandis was a little strange before it started. Ultimately not everyone here is watching this thing from a distance is the point here.
He does hit the nail on the head with some of his military/equipment/aid criticisms though. I was hopeful before the counter offensive because of the rumors of the GLSDB. Basically because it would improve the range of the HIMARS/M270, making it almost instantly transferable, it was American so it would come in numbers and most importantly it would come before the offensive and help set up the conditions needed for Ukraine to be successful in their offensive against fortified lines. Namely logistical strikes aimed at degrading Russian Artillery power.
But that didn't happen and my opinion changed.
The only other capability that really could have came in a similar time frame, could be set up, transferred and come with the numbers required for a real impact was America's cluster munition stockpile that was set for decommission. If that had come three months earlier there's a good chance it would have made a major battlefield impact and drastically increased the likelihood of Ukraine counter offensive success.
Sandis called that... incessantly so and he was the only one doing it.
Cliffs:
Actually pretty good poster about military stuff but the war and western response to it and his location is pretty clearly exacerbating some uh.... eccentricities.
