Here is a first hand account of what a foreign volunteer (army vet) experienced when they came under fire from Russian cruise missiles and air power.


Turns out that being on the receiving end of heavy firepower is scary and fighting Russia isn't exactly like war criming Iraqis or Afghans.

He left after that.

Russia is drawing down troops From Syria and Nagrono Karabakh in order to deploy in Ukraine. As well as troops from the Far East and the Syrians themselves.

They have truly humiliated themselves.

To be fair they are fighting 150,000 ukranians who have full logistical, Intel and financial support from nato. I'd say that Ukranians have better battlespace awareness Than the Russians.

More satellites, more airborne radar. Ukranians are probably fed every flightpath of every Russian air asset. I would be very worried if I was a Russian soldier.

You can always volunteer for Ukraine. You seem much tougher than those ex US soldiers who ran away. You're from the internet after all.

:coffee: :-):-)

Russia is merely copying and applying the tactics used by US in Syria. That was how the civil war got started there.

So Russia are now mulling to ship 50,000 mercenaries from Syria and Iraq to the Western part of Ukraine if Zalensky still refuses to comply to their demand about not joining NATO and amending the constitution. Ukraine will be engulf in a long civil war and after that, what good is Ukraine to NATO then?

It is a smart Chess move by President Putin.

The main Russian Army are assisting the pro-Russia militia, and by encircling the cities in breakaway Republics in Donbass, Lugansky and Denetsk, the success of the militia are ensured.

Today I read Mariopul, Odessa, etc have just fallen and new mayors are appointed.

The last time the US and Russia faced off 200-300 Russian mercenaries were blown to bits in Syria.

The US can inflict horrible effects on Russian units and quickly with mass. Russia doesn’t have anywhere near the PGM stockpile the US does.

One thing is for sure after this conflict certain changes should be made to Un body for not repeating these types of cases.

The veto power for cases involving outside interference to internal conflicts should be increased with extra steps and extra measures. For example troop buildup, threats should each have measures and loss of veto power if attacking country has veto power on that case or similar related cases can be added as well. For example if it is not Russia but Usa fighting against Ukraine most of us with Usa control of media power would be believing that all donbass residents are killed and there is a genocide going on and zelensky would be the new wannabe fuhrer. Most green votes on last Un vote would be then approve Usa intervention in that country as most of the countries are economically dependent to west and fear sanctions or internal conflicts supported by them and later outside interventions claiming oppression etc.

The veto power involing measures against countries attacking others should be decreased so measures can pass more easily to dampen out the attacking force or best detterrance against doing so. Russia attacking Ukraine or similar or Israel attacking Labennon, Syria etc. should not be easily vetoed by Russia-China in 1st case and Usa-Britain or France which is more neutral but after Russia-Ukraine conflict is naturally more towards Nato side in 2nd case. Using economic power to influence Un votes should also be blocked with measures as Usa can use all types of sanctions even unilaterraly to curb nagetive voting countries and Russia can use gas and materials.

It doesnt matter currently because of unipolar economic order with dollar at the center of it but Un if modified to work correctly should consider the economic hegemony of Usa as well. Other currencies should not be discouraged in inter country trade like Yuan etc. even encouraged. Dollar as the single inter-country trade will always shift the balance towards Usa in every Un decision and without any economic backlash. Iraq also didnt get much outside help. This conflict also showed that in any future scenario attacking party would have difficulties even if it is Usa because of atgms, manpads, mini-less detectable attack drones(TB2), possibly kamikaze drones-mini cruise missiles to attack static positions which is very easy to deliver.
