That is a lot more than two lol, and it is not even a comprehensive list. For example not counting glownigger-style regime change shit like the Arab Spring, or indeed the Euromaidan coup that sparked this whole Ukraine crisis.

I'm not saying Bush/Obama foreign policy is innocent, since stuf like Iraq and Libya were a huge fuck-up, but the jihadis picked a fight with the US. Russia is the agressor here, and anyone who says other wise is sucking Putin's dick. It's almost comical to say other wise, they didn't even bother with a false flag justification.

The Chinese have had a well known GIGO problem. Xi doesn't like to hear about how nobody has built a ramp carrier in 70 years, he wants an aircraft carrier and they better produce.

From the shit-talking everyone's done for the Russian military, yeah.

From history? No.

Historically, the only equipment the Russian soldier was guaranteed to have was his daily hundred grams of vodka

And sometimes not even then

There's no fucking way NATO would allow Poland to be attacked. The reason this bullshit even occurred was just to prevent Ukraine from joining NATO. If there were already in it, it wouldn't be happening.

Russia would not attack a member of nato or a close ally. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs take a break from video games. Ukraine is nether of those

IIRC the WW2 tactic was to flood the intake with burning whatever which would stall the engine. Also, tanks of that era usually ran on petrol/gasoline so you had a shot at setting the carburetor on fire which would, at the very least, completely fuck up the fuel mixture.

My carb caught on fire lots of times when we were adjusting the air/fuel mix, it was fine.
 
Pornhub really taking it to the Russians, ya sure that will show them!

If Russia were to invade Poland, NATO won’t do anything they’re not already doing for the Ukraine. That’s my prediction.

Tiny little details about some of those entries there.

3. How the fuck do you invade Somali pirates lol?
5. Lol Kony2020 was literally a meme. US had nothing to do with that
6. Not an invasion. Host country wanted us to kill ISIS mongrels in exchange for oil.
7. Read #6
8. ?. We never even set foot in this country outside of specific special operations to kill a small number of terrorist leaders which again was welcomed by the host country.
9. Read #6
10. Again, not an invasion. But we did start shit with Iran because fuck Iran.

I'm beginning to think you don't know what an invasion is.

- Ukraine is blowing up a lot of bridges which won't be too effective because one thing the Russian army invests a lot of resources into and historically has been very good at is fording operations

At this point, one has to wonder if some old-fashioned siege warfare would be the best option.
Let the Ukrainians dig themselves in and blow the bridges, effectively immobilizing their forces. They don't have the reserves for any large counter-offensives,
and they don't have the airlift capacity to supply a city under siege. Certainly not anymore.

Kiev would probably fall to a blockade within two weeks, or within days if they blow up critical infrastructure, as the japanese did when they sacked Singapore.
