I told you that you're been fed Russian Propaganda, you no wan agree grin

Before Crimea became part of Russia, it was once part of The Roman Empire and The Ottoman Empire.

Crimea belong to the Crimean Tatars not Russians. Read and cure yourself of this ignorant you are drench in by Pro Russian Propagandist. If nah base on lineage, Crimea belong to the Tatars

https://www.britannica.com/place/Crimea/History

Russia annexed Crimea in 1783-1784.

You wan dey claim to be a Free Thinker, but, you're not. Is so stupid for you to even argue Crimea belong to Russians by Lineage grin

From you assertion, lying and cheating to get ahead in life is the best way as long as you are not caught.
What are you talking about
Why should Russia invade an independent Country(Ukraine) and take over their land(Crimea) base on a flimsy excuse?

The Ukrainians have the right to protect themselves and their(Ukrainian) land.

You're been fed propaganda by this Pro Russian Military Analyst.

Russia Air force do not even have the capability to carry out SEAD deep inside Ukrainian territory.

Imagine if this war is between The USA and Mexico, by now, Mexico won't have any Air Defense or any jet. The F35 and F22 will totally dominate the Mexican Skies.


There's a reason the USA is called A Global Power.

Even if USA is to take on Ukraine from Poland,the US Air Force will be flying in and out of Ukraine anytime and any day they want.

The only reason USA can't take over the whole of Russia is because of Russia Nuke.

If Russia trains Mexico for 8 years, provide air defense, iskander etc, USA would not be able to SEAD anything.

You think F35 and F22 are invincible? Maybe. Against countries like Afghanistan.

Do you agree with me Nigeria will defeat Russia in a conventional war?

Base on Russia military performance in Ukraine, I don't see them defeating the Nigerian military.

What sort of military performance are you talking about? Killed more 100k Ukraine Soldiers, more than 300k wounded and maim (some would never be combat fit anymore). Have taken more than 20% of Ukraine land that would never be returned to Ukraine. Is fighting NATO and US inside of Ukraine.

So what exactly are you saying?

The US has not fought this kind of massive (modern) war before. So it is pointless to say they are capable when it has not happened in reality.

You can not win a war by just using plane. War can not be won from the air. This is the reason why US failed in Afghanistan. The air power became useless. Like wise in Iraq, it took the Kurds and other group to defeat ISIS. NATO air campaign did not win the war. So F-22 & F-35 will not win a war for the US.
Your Head Is Not Correct. Who Told You That US Failed In Afghanistan? US Went To Afghanistan To Stop Al-Qadae Which Was Managed By Taliban & This Al-Qadae Terrorist Organization Was The Group Of Terrorist That Destroyed American Trade Center, Led By Osama Bin Laden. US Did Not Go To Afghanistan To Fight War, Okay??

So did they stop Al Qadae? Who is in control of Afghanistan government today? Taliban? How much did they spend in their 20 years adventure? 2T dollars

So how exactly do you define failure? They pulled out of Afghanistan without e en informing their allies. Biden had the Afghanistan puppet government to lie about the imminent Taliban takeover.

Thousands of Russian soldiers have died, the Russia military is struggling in Ukraine even though they make use of the element of surprise. They had to withdraw from places like Kiev after losing thousands and hundreds of weapons.

Russia might eventually win, but for now, Ukraine and NATO is giving them a good run for their money.

When you lose about 15k solders dead and about 30k wounded and the other side loses more than 100k dead and 300k wounded. And on top of it, you still control more than 20% of their territory, who is losing? Guy. It's called war. Thousands die. Get over it.

Besides, do you know the task Russia set to achieve?
Demilitarizing
De-nazifization
Protection of Donbas

You know what means? Killing Ukrainain soldiers. That's how you do it while having minimal casualties (dead and wounded). Russia doesn't need your pity. They are doing just fine.

The western military aide to Ukraine has totalled $111 billion, almost two times Russia's annual defense budget. Only Russia can survive that kind of gang up and still standing. Ukraine has become what the Yorubas call 'Agbana' for the West; a black hole that siphons resources endlessly.

Have Russians not been arming themselves since then too? In fact, the Russian Military have the advantage when the SMO began, they made use of the Element Of Surprise, with this advantage, they should be controlling most part of Ukraine by now.
Re: Why Is Russia Conducting Its Special Military Operations This Way? by Nobody: 7:18pm On Dec 29, 2022
This kind of stupid reasoning is why western citizens keep cheering on the war. The moment Russia wields the iron hand now, everyone will start screaming that they are mean. Russia never intended to make a large scale takeover of Ukraine. They did the same thing in Georgia in 2008. They would penetrate deep into the country, using paratroopers and artillery support, followed by a tank convoy. They will surround the capital and make demands. This style ensures minimal casualties for both sides.
Parachoko:
The video is made by a person who is pro Russian.

I also blame the west for letting this war to happen. But the reality on ground is that, Russia do not have the capability to take on NATO.

The only reason NATO forces is not occupying every part of Russia right now is because of Russia Nuclear Bomb.

The Russian Airforce do not have the capability to perform a deep strike in Ukraine, the SU57 is scared of going toe to toe with the S300 grin

The S300 will be useless against F35.

The Crimeans wanted Russia to rescue them from their own government threatening to exterminate them for being pro-russiqn. This is evident in the referendum conducted. Ukrainian govt has committed grievous atrocities in the Donbass for years but US never did anything to condemn these heinous crimes. In Odessa, ukrainian extremists locked several pro-russians in a building and set them on fire yet the west urged them on. Please can you allow these things to continue against your own children? Will US tolerate it?

Okay, hope you are watching Bakhmut and Soledad closely. You need to understand that the Eastern region where the war is currently happening are mainly pro-russian and Russia cannot carpet bomb these places but are being forced to escalate due to the coward methods of fighting used by Ukrainian forces. They hide in schools, hospitals and other civilian buildings to shoot at Russian troops but when Russia destroys an ukrainian point in such building the shitty western media will start screaming war crimes. Even Amnesty international could not keep silent anymore

Yes They Controlled Afghanistan For 20 Years, But Do You Know Much USA Lavish In Afghanistan By Trying To See That Afghanistan Is Good For A Living Soul To Stay Confortably? American Wasted Billion Of US DOLLARS But Look At Useless Afghanistan Is. Do You Think The Problem Afghans Are Facing Now From America? If You Say Yes It Means You Don't Know Anything About Afghanistan Government. America Thought That They Would Be Able To Shepherd Afghanistan To The Standard Bring Down The Preasure Of Taliban Because They Knew That Taliban Members Are Terrorist Producer At The First Place. American Forces Only Trained Afghans Forces To See That They Would Push Taliban Members Out Of Afghanistan Government But They Didn't Know That Afghan Forces Wouldn't Fight Back.

US spend 20 years in Afghanistan to removed the Taliban government spending 2T dollars in the process. At the end, they fled Afghanistan, did not even inform their allies. President Biden in a telephone with the Afghanistan puppet President (the US had set up) asked him to lie about the impeding collapse. These are all public information and knowledge.

Of course, we know they had to pull out of Afghanistan so they can support Ukraine. So, what the Bleep are you saying? I asked, how do you define failure? Do you know how US soldiers, CIA officers, News agent were left behind in their haste to abandoned Afghanistan?

Why should Russia invade an independent Country(Ukraine) and take over their land(Crimea) base on a flimsy excuse?

The Ukrainians have the right to protect themselves and their(Ukrainian) land.

Under the UN law, a sovereign country has the right to protect itself. But under the same UN law, there is a part which says protecting (securing) yourself must be done in a way that it does not create insecurity in another country.


One US policy says that security abroad is security at home. Which is why the US travel thousands of miles to mid east to invade Iraq and Afghanistan.

NATO poses great threat to Russia. The Russians don't want to see NATO men and equipments in Ukraine. They want Ukraine to be a buffer zone. Which is legitimate. Russian security concern is legitimate. The US won't allow it in the northern hemisphere too. Many people feel US is a good neighbor to other countries in America. But it is not true. Mexico, Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela e.t.c are not fans of the US. Mexico especially is anti-US and the country dare not form any military alliance with another super power(Russia or China).

Both the West and Russia dish out propaganda. But the West took it to another level when they ban Russian media from operating on their soil and on all socia media platform. They want the Russians to continue to have access to their own propaganda but stop their own people from having access to the Russian side of the story. They call themself free people but that action was tyrannical.

The Russians are well informed about the conflict. Because they have access to both Western side of the story and the Russian side of the story. Unlike the Westerners who only have access to one side of the story.
