Theyre not giving him Iron Dome because it only protects against Palestinian rockets, which are just glorified fireworks.
It would probably work against some of the rockets the Russians use, but you'd still be facing the same problem it does in Israel; you're shooting a $50k missile to stop a $500 one. They couldn't afford to use it on a good barrage.
 
I... I truly live in the dumbest time.

They're literally using WW1 as an example of a good way to win a war with another country.

They're Just not wanting to repeat history, They're wanting to just rip it off.

Is there a way to devolve back to the chimps? Can I do that please?

The Ukrainian head of the medical service says that the order has been given to castrate Russian POWs
Because they are cockroaches, not people.
He said this on a youtube livestream and minutes later the stream went offline. Someone was able to capture it

Edit - the stream is now private:

Edit 2 - with subtitles: (it would be nice if someone could confirm that he really said this)

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that might be a war crime.

That's literally the first time I've ever seen anyone try to use ww1 as an example of ANYTHING done right. Dear god we've hit peak clown

Edit.
Outside of Lawrence of Arabias little adventure that is.
 
I guess your talking to burger normies.
Americans are obsessed with WWII and everything has to be some form of it.
The losing streak the USA has been on since 1945 is just memory holed.
It's because WWII is the US' creation story. The progressive regime that took over and reshaped the country during that time successfully propagandized Americans into treating WWII as a moral war after the fact. The country is the way it is now because of the policies, blatant unconstitutional laws deemed constitutional by the activist supreme court, and federal expansion. It can be argued this started during WWI and earlier. The US propaganda machine during WWII didn't end with the war.
 
It tracks somewhat with criticisms I've heard about the battalion tactical group. Apparently (though everyone is speaking with the benefit of hindsight now) they're somewhat lacking in terms of infantry, compared to how many vehicles the BTG contains. Other main criticism I've seen is that the BTG only has 5 fuel trucks which is, so they say, far too little for all the trucks and tanks they're meant to keep supplied.

What's this saying? Is this the equivalent of a Brigade with one maneuver "Battalion Task Force", which consists of 1 tank company, 2 mech infantry companies, and 1 motorized company? If so, that BN seems reasonably balanced, but it's odd to have a BDE with only one maneuver BN. It seems like it's just security for the rest of the special purpose shit.

Just another reason to knock out every truck possible. Keep in mind "regular" trucks can carry fuel, in cans and/or drums More work to load the trucks, unload and refuel, but there's the main alternative to tank trucks. Another alternative to tank trucks is for tactical vehicles to carry extra filled cans/drums of fuel, but that's mighty dangerous. Would also question if the Russians would have sufficient numbers of cans/drums, and the ability to fill those containers from pipeheads/railheads/fuel bladders. My guess - highly unlikely, given how poorly the logistics of this thing have been planned.

If there's been any lesson coming out of this war, it's the reminder that logistics wins wars. You absolutely must do proper logistic planning up front, coordinated with the operations/transport planning, and be flexible enough to react to changes in the area of operations. We work the logistics side very hard in our planning for anything.
 
Turns out there is actually a video of that going around, last 12 seconds or so:

So now we see them getting trapped is just another Ukrainian lie.
The video shows the Russians controlling the ground floor. And the frame we where told showing them trying to punch out the ceiling to escape is just them busting the CCTV cameras.

The fact they are using WW1 for any military ideas just tells me that they only read the three paragraphs about it in US history books.

iirc, a study commissioned by the US congress to investigate outcomes of a civil war involving the government and normal people mentioned supply line issues. The US highway and rail system is great for getting supplies around but is vulnerable to ambush at choke points and sabotage in remote areas, particularly in both mountain ranges. I don't know if people in Ukraine are attacking supply lines but I imagine that would make Russia's supply woes much worse.

Actually, brave Ukrainians shut down the elevator in between floors, trapping the russkies forever. They died in there.
Slava ukrainia!!

It is amusing isn't it? "Pay no attention to the American dictator with 3+ terms, who confiscated Gold from the people, prolonged the great depression, and put U.S. citizens into concentration camps."

God I love seeing NPC's bewildered reaction that non-US-aligned nations don't care about other peoples' issues.

The Somme and Galipoli were the pinnacle of military planning and execution.
