No, it's not. The weapons systems Russia has now are way more advanced than what Iraq had in '91. Iraq bought a of shit (mainly from the SU and France), but even at the time it was inferior to the best stuff the Soviet Union had. Russia also has "export models" of certain things. Like a lot of countries. Iraqi T-72s were judged to be vastly inferior to genuine Russian ones.
Yes, that's why I used the word relative.
Iraq has wish versions of 70s and 80s soviet tech, in 1990. Going against US 1990 tech (largely 70s and 80s developed with updates)

Compared to this which is Ukraine with that same 70s and 80s soviet tech against Russia who are using a lot of the same with a smattering of newer stuff which they can't afford to largely adopt across their force.

The difference here is sand countries fold like laundry and accept new rulers every other week, and slavs at least have the dignity to make you bleed for their vodka.

This isn't to say that their equipment was as good as the US, just that if Saddam could have kept people around to actually use it, we would have had a hell of a fight. 10years later with battles such as Nasiryah play that out.
 
This was later retracted. Still kinda funny

Iraqi Army was good at fighting other Arabs, and their own people, based on superior numbers (i.e. they managed to overrun Kuwait easily enough), because all Arabs are fucking hopeless when it comes to modern war. And even then, they fought the Iran-Iraq war to stalemate despite having superior numbers.

Bottom line is you can't really apply anything from the Iraq war in this conflict. This is slav vs. slav. Not raghead vs raghead (or Persian), or raghead vs first world superpower.
islam maintenance plan is literally "if allah wills it"
(tl note- irl "inshallalh" means "God needs to will it because my lazy ass ain't doing shit")
 
lol I love how they're just firing off weaponry even the US uses sparingly due to costs like it's nothing. Kinda like how the iron dome costs 40 grand a shot, but a tiny little nation uses it for garage-built rockets.
Ammo you didn’t pay for us cheaper than free.
 
Putin is raging against the tide of history to solidify his legacy. To the utter detriment of all.

Is this the part we imagine Putin is standing in his war room pushing all the red buttons while screaming as his generals sweat through their uniforms?
 
Am I a pussy for trying to duck and dodge through pictures and videos from the war zone being posted as I flick through the highlights? Probably, but I genuinely don't think I'm mentally strong enough to see real people dying and still be okay for the rest of the day. I need to go cuddle my dog.
Have you seen that vid where i*is fighters drag a guy with pickup on a road with his knees & elbows scrapping the asphalt?
 
Brave Serbian man travels to Ukraine and delivers thousands of home cooked meals to refugee women. He is being known as "The Feeder of Kyiv".

Feeder of Kyiv speaks out about Ukraine. Says there is no way he will relinquish control of Ukraine and the Kiwi Farms to the Russians


Also lol that you can reface yourself to support ukraine
 
That was Eric Swalwell, who suggested Russian students should be kicked out of the United States.

I just came home from the hospital, are I correct in assuming the chicken hawks are demanding we enforce a no fucking fly zone over Ukraine and declare war on RUSSIA? Holy shit if true, I really don't know what to say.
Dont watch any Network news or CNN
