Well, 500,000 men were still alive and a million men were not permanently injured, but the war on Russia was lost anyway. That is how the fault and the guilt and the foolishness of 'the west' looks like.

[@jean-mariebrodin3107]

100.000 french soldiers died in Crimea in 1855. Thus Napoleon III most probably lost 300.000 men because of this war against Russia, which had strictly no interest for France. No interest to come to the rescue of the Ottoman empire. 15 years later, in 1870 Napoleon III was badly defeated by Germany. German army was strong of 462.000 troopers and 56.000 horsemen. France had only 230.000 troopers and 25.000 horsemen. Those 300.000 Napoleon III lost in Crimea would have made an excellent reserve force, and maybe change the outcoming of this war. So Napoleon III lost the real war, because he lost too many forces in a useless war against Russia. The following 3rd republic promoted a law according to which nobody with the name "Napoleon" could participate in politics in France. However, it seems Macron bypassed this law, and Napoleon came back under the name of Macron. So, if history repeats itself, we will loose so many soldiers in Ukraine, for a senseless project, and then we will badly loose a future war against a real ennemy.

[@AlanMcBride-yw6in]

An excellent thought provoking comment Jean. Thanks man. Love from Ireland.

[@user-kd3rw4rh6p]

Just to remember regarding your odd statement of "he lost the real war", it was Napoleon III who attacked Germany. Before doing so he tried everything to convince the other European nations to join him, but none of them did and in contrast told him that they cannot see any reason why they should attack Germany. At that time all of Europe was still happy that they had managed to throw the french occupiers out of their countries.

[@JamesKing-vk4dv]

Prussia, not Germany, won the Franco-Prussian War because of Prussian rail networks and mobilization efficiency. Not manpower. The French had superior weaponry and manpower on the whole, but could not concentrate them at the front or mobilize them in time. Another 300,000 men would have made no difference.

I think you military analyzers got it all wrong. You assume Russia is trying to gain territory and then explain the tactics of how this is achieved. "Russians try to capture the fields between X and Y to cut off road Z...", etc. I think they are just destroying troops and weapons wherever they can, without a tactical plan. Only when Kiev is withdrawing do they advance and 'capture' territory because they need to advance to continue the destruction of troops and weapons. And the strategy works brilliantly. Kiev demilitarized, and as a bonus the entire NATO demilitarized!

[@MnemonicCarrier]

Interesting way of looking at it. I think the Russians do have to take some territory in order to establish a "buffer zone" (to prevent the Ukrainians from shelling civilian cities in the Donbass and Belgarod etc...).

The Soviets kicked the Japanese out of China and took Berlin. It took the mass of humanity of Russia and the unscathed industrial power of America to defeat Imperial Nippon and Nazi Germany.

Macron did not state that he will deploy forces to Ukraine, but that he will THINK about it. That's not quite the same!

[@exoticalover3615]

Exactly my thought when I heard Dima claim otherwise. Maria Zakharova also replied to his statement saying, that Macron is in a loop saying it is meaningless, the same thing every couple of weeks. Don't forget France already lost a lot of special forces in Ukraine. They call them volunteers of course...hahaha. Macron just has a big mouth, but knows the outcome when he sends forces...poefff and they're gone. Not very good for his popularity.

[@user-xz6ot7wf4j]

Macron is just talking tough after France got evicted from Africa to keep his sponsors satisfied. Thats why he says he will send in French troops as well because France has huge investmens in Odessa. And doing so he can make Germany the scapegoat if Ukraine completely collapses saying no one listened to him. But probably he already made a phone call to Putin to tell him this is just propaganda for the media

[@Aimercesttous]

Indeed! Courage itself this Macron.

[@Shadow66090]

​@@exoticalover3615Exactly. It was funny how riled up Macron was when Russians Iskandered some Frenchies in Kharkov. That is when he called for the meeting of NATO countries and asked for support to send troops to Ukraine. Basically he thus confirmed the claims that those were French soldiers that got vaporized.

[@AtomicLobotomy]

The French like to think. Descartes said, Cogito ergo sum. "I think therefore I am." The thinking alone is enough for French. Military-wise, Napoleon routed by the Russians. Then routed at Waterloo by the English. French lost to Prussia in 1870, to Germans in First World War (until bailed out by Yanks), lost Second World War (maginot line) and were occupied by Nazi Germany. They lost in Indochina (Vietnam), to be replaced by US (who, following in French footsteps, also then went on to lose once and for all). In 1962, France lost war against Algeria. And now it has pulled out of Burkina Faso, Mali and, in the past month, Niger. Not an impressive record.

'Ukraine is on the brink. I don't see a possibility for Kiev to win the war on the battlefield' - Deputy Head of the Main Intelligence Directorate Skibitsky "It's tough right now, like never before." Such wars end only through negotiations. They may not start before the second half of 2025. Chasov Yar will fall like Avdeevka, it's just a matter of time. Russia knew that April and May would be a tough time for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Russia will continue the liberation of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions. The success of the advancement will depend on when and where the Russians will strike next. Russia is preparing for an offensive around the Kharkov and Sumy regions in the northeast. The Russian group on the border with Kharkov consists of 35,000 military personnel, but they plan to increase it to 50,000-70,000.

[@stlouisix1]

There has been a multifold increase in the production of weapons and ammunition in Russia since the outbreak of the conflict between Moscow and Kiev in 2022, the head of the defense conglomerate Rostec has said. "Compared to 2022, the production and refurbishment of tanks at our factories increased by three-and-a-half times, and of lightly armored vehicles by three times,” the Rostec chief said. The manufacture of self-propelled artillery pieces has increased tenfold, while 14 times more towed guns are being produced, and the production of multiple rocket launch systems (MLRS) has doubled. The output of ammunition rounds for tanks and infantry fighting vehicles increased by 900%, artillery shells by 600%, and munitions for MLRS by 800%. Three times as many unguided rockets for heavy flamethrower systems are being produced, Chemezov said. According to the Rostec chief, new types of equipment have also been introduced during the conflict, such as TOS-2 heavy flamethrower systems, which are capable of firing munitions with thermobaric warheads and are “widely used in the area of the military operation.” Zemledeliye remote mine-laying systems are also being produced, as well as Krasnopol guided shells, Kub loitering munitions, and guided missiles for UAVs. Rostec is also working with JSC Tactical Missiles Corporation (KTRV) to equip standard aviation bombs with gliding modules and guidance systems, he said. The Washington Post reported in March that the use of glide bombs, which can travel long distances and have high precision, has “dramatically boosted” the effectiveness of the Russian Air Force. The Independent wrote last month that those munitions had been “changing the face” of the conflict between Moscow and Kiev. - RT

Great job, Talk more about weapons specs 👌

The outstanding characteristic of the TOS-3 is not the explosive power. THAT is actually LESS than that of TOS-1. Instead, the propulsion power of the rockets was extended - seemingly to that of TOS-2 -, so that the TOS-3 comes as a kind of hybrid between TOS-1 and TOS-2: It has the reach of TOS-2, but the armor of TOS-1.

For those still inclined, like Dima (as he has spoken of “upcoming peace negotiations since summer 2022, back then he spoke as if everything Russia was doing was to get a better angle for the “forthcoming peace talks”) to assume the inevitability of upcoming peace talks, resting merely on Kiev’s willingness to do so, should look to Medvedevs most recent statement from the past 12 or 24 hours. Now, he may be playing the role of public hardliner, but even if that’s the case it shows that the starting point from Russias mind is far beyond what even the most pessimistic NATO member has acknowledged. For someone as high up as Medvedev to speak repeatedly of a “return to Russia of its historic lands and people”, as well as “finally and ultimately clearing out the Nazi criminals in Kiev” is quite telling on where this thing is headed and what Moscow has in mind.

Американцы, мастера рекламы и большие любители блефа, нарисовали красивый плакат победоносной войны с Японией. Японцы тоже были в этом заинтересованы, им надо было как-то сгладить углы. Поражение от сильного противника не так позорно. Потом была Корея, но именно вьетнамцы стали для США самым неприятным сюрпризом.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has responded to the International Criminal Court’s rumored plans to indict Israeli officials for war crimes by claiming that for the ICC to do so would be an “antisemitic hate crime”. Yes, you read that correctly. So, to be absolutely clear, Israel’s top government official has announced that charges against himself and other Israeli leaders for obvious war crimes like intentionally bombing and starving civilians would be both “antisemitic” and a “hate crime”. Keeping that in mind, let’s turn now to the bill that just passed in the US House of Representatives which can be used to suppress entirely legitimate political speech critical of Israel as “antisemitic”. And again, this is happening within a political climate in which the Israeli government publicly announces that “antisemitism” includes charging Israeli war criminals for extensively documented war crimes. Which is as self-evidently ridiculous as any position could possibly be, from any angle you could possibly look at it. - LewRockwell

With the chassis of old tanks, scrap the turred and build heavily angled top armor assault guns, and bye bye

The only reason why drones seem to be dominant is, that every drone is always making a video from its strikes and of course you got millions of drones, so even just 1% of them is 10.000 videos. This makes them look dominant, especially becaue it is the main thing that the Banderites got in vast numbers and where it is hard to see them getting destroyed like the tanks and artillery sytems. The Banderites and NATO put way more effort into social media PR - that's where the drones shine.

[@user-cv9vi7hp7n]

Есть еще один нюанс, дроны, практически впервые, получили такое распространение. И пока еще не выработаны меры противодействия. Но уже сейчас заметно, как падает их эффективность... Вечное соревнование щита и меча...

Colonel of the SVR, MGIMO professor Andrei Bezrukov - about Macron’s statements about sending the French army to Ukraine: “Forget about Macron, he will be gone soon. He's in his last presidential cycle. He can’t run for office, and he’s such a dick. Someone I know joked that the French rooster is the only bird that can sing while standing knee-deep in shit. In reality, these statements are worthless, they are worth nothing! With the contingent of the French army that can still be sent, this will solve absolutely nothing on the battlefield. This will only add to the mess. The French army is in principle incapable of introducing a field war of the type that exists here now. She is not prepared for this, she is not equipped for this. It can fire nuclear missiles from a submarine. Maybe, but she's not stupid enough to do it. She can give her planes, good planes. But what kind of pilots will have to be placed there? And everyone understands that if they are in Ukraine, they will burn.

Macron didn’t say that France will deploy troops, but discuss deployment of the troops if Russia breaks through and Kiev invites troops.

If he does do it he will be doing it without U.S. UK or Germany.

The American GI would disagree with you, but in any event none of this is a genuine performance of military logic on the part of anyone except Russia. NATO is as panicked as a man facing the gallows. There is more to this than territorial disputes.

[@zloymyx2486]

@@michaelwills1926 Любопытно, но это одна из общих черт Украины и США. Но если США где-то проявляли мудрость или изворотливость и поэтому никогда не терпели по настоящему крупных поражений - то в отличие от них украинцам просто везло. Что такое сокрушительное поражение они не знают и не представляют, даже сама мысль об этом полностью противоречит их картине мира и не укладывается у них в голове. А у них в голове и так короткое замыкание от противоречащих друг другу нарративов агрессивной 30-тилетней пропаганды. С одной стороны мифическое многовековое угнетение, а с другой стороны комплекс превосходства и исключительности.

To be fair, Russia had also forgotten how to fight a high-intensity conflict. The start of this "Special Military Operation" saw a too-rapid advance that Russia couldn't support, and that the Ukrainians rolled back in their first Counter Offensive to the DonBas. So if the Russians figured it out fairly quickly, what makes anyone think the Americans couldn't or wouldn't, if they hypothetically entered such a conflict?

[@Brslld]

Good point

[@zloymyx2486]

Любая война - это форма дипломатии. Пушками и танками противника заставляют подписать некую бумагу. Расчет первоначального броска на Киев был на то что украинцы ее подпишут. Они бы и подписали, но решают как оказалось не они.
