...it is common for the aggressor who is attacking dug in fortifications to lose a lot more than the defender. I would suspect that the Russians who are poorly equipped and ill trained are taking enormous numbers of casualties as compared to Ukraine.

Decomposed > Are you sure about that? Bobby Kennedy, Jr., was on Tucker Carlson this evening. He said that Russians are killing Ukrainians at a ratio of 7 or 8 to 1. Tucker did not correct him.


One thing I am sure of, is that Russians are not killing Ukrainians at a rate of '7 or 8 to 1'.

One figure I found was more along the lines of two Russians killed per Ukrainian.

Early in the war, the Russians invaded . . . and the Ukrainians were using Javelin anti-tank missiles and blowing the turrets off the Russian tanks. How? Because the Russian tanks have an auto-loader and lots of 'main gun ammo' loose inside the turret. The javelin comes in through the top, blows the loose ammo, and the tank blows apart killing everybody inside it.

The Ukrainians were also using drones to locate and or attack re-supply vehicles. The Russian advance stalled out.

Ukraine is using precision munitions to attack Russian supply depots and troop concentrations. Russia is reduced to poorly guided munitions to attack whole cities.

One news article says Russia has more artillery production . . . and a 'serious advantage' . . . Yet a different article claims Russia is reduced to buying 152mm artillery shells from N.Korea. It is a fact that Russia has been bartering with Iran to get un-manned arial vehicles (drones).

Russia is having problems meeting its 'conscription quotas'.

And Russia is reduced to pulling tanks from the 1950's out of storage.

There is a LOT of misinformation out there. I suspect the Russians - world class propagandists that they are - are trying to portray themselves as a LOT stronger than they are and that the Ukrainians position is hopeless.

But if the Russians really were as 'powerful' as some say - I believe they would already have overrun Ukraine. And they haven't.
