So, it happened AGAIN. We can blame Putin, we can blame Redditors, we can blame NATO, we can praise Zelenskyy's music video, DNR's effort but the truth is it's simply not enough. Javelins, NLAWs you name it, it all stinks.
Don't get me wrong, I still have full faith in AFU and Twitter, but MASSIVE reinforcements are desperately needed in the two weeks. Otherwise I'm not very optimistic about Kiev, or our chances in qualifying for the European Union for that matter. Not fighting like this. What do you think, /ugh/? Is NATO the problem? Or is it USA? Azov #IN or #OUT?
U.S Marine on his experience of last 3 weeks fighting Russians >This brought Jed to the second subject he wanted to discuss: Russian tactics and doctrine. He said he had spent much of the past few weeks in the trenches northwest of Kyiv. “The Russians have no imagination,” he said. “They would shell our positions, attack in large formations, and when their assaults failed, do it all over again. Meanwhile, the Ukrainians would raid the Russian lines in small groups night after night, wearing them down.” >I asked Jed at what ranges they were engaging the Russians. “Typically, the Ukrainians would wait and ambush them pretty close.” When I asked how close, he answered, “Sometimes scary close.” ... >During a failed night assault on his trench, a group of Russian soldiers got lost in the nearby woods. “Eventually, they started calling out,” he said. “I couldn’t help it; I felt bad. They had no idea where to go.” >When I asked what happened to them, he returned a grim look.
It appears to be. No drone strikes from Ukraine for more than a week. No footage from Ukrainian Air Force anywhere. Less and less photos of cocky hohols and Russian corpses. I think they are rekt and unable to wage the war anymore.
P O E T R Y P O S T I N G you don't know how to die by a broken sword in your birthland's fields defending them with honor you decorated every conqueror with flowers and sang his hymns shameless and proud
you always waited for freedom, you stunted race to be brought by other's bayonets in your mountains you fed other's cattle because you don't know how to honorably die for freedom
show me in order the knights of your kind who broke your chains with the pommel of a sword where is the Karadjordje of your people show me your thermopylae pass
with foreigner's knives you crawled trough the mud with bloodlust of a beast, a filthy hyena to strike your brother painfully in the back and kill the child inside a woman's womb
you still haven't grown grass on countless graveyards and you already hide a bloody knife in your vest from old gallows a new rope hangs in the dusk of your mind you dream of a new boss
you defended your land from our children drank the blood of innocent children from a bassinet with symbols of shame, under the ustasha name you put christ, freedom and the saints
mindlessly you look for who will, new knives sharper and angrier forge for you who's rifle you will hang upon your shoulder who best knows how to command you

It's true. He gets the chainsaw and a free tank ride (under the treads). The hohol behavior in this conflict was basically reddit tier. Even we treated the dead and wounded in the middle east better.
