I am very retarded but that doesn't change the fact that Iraq did have weapons of mass destruction, and that Russia is speed running the winter War except they're not going to get 10% of Ukraine's land as a concession.

Now to be fair America is suffering from an epidemic of people getting retarded and exposure to flushing toilets and plumbing is believed to be the culprit. as a result we lack the supreme intellect to take a 50-year-old missile with outdated guidance systems and sortie them cumbersomely from a 50-year-old airframe that has a consumer end GPS system duct taped to the cockpit.

if you are storing that fertilizer with the intention of turning it into a bomb then yes you are part of a terrorist organization.

likewise, Saddam Hussein was storing chemical precursors underneath school buildings with the intention of turning them into sarin gas.

Oh noees! Not the precursorinos!

Get a life. Getting rid of Saddam was a net loss for the Iraqi people and all it did is make them into Iran’s bitch.

Also, if it wasn’t for the FBI entrapment of poor people, they could never prove intent either.

Saddam was so great to the Iraqi people that the US' second invasion of Iraq was the only recent military action where the locals welcomed the US soldiers. they weren't very happy about desert Storm but they had a change of heart after Saddam started disembowling the mothers of different tribal groups as motivation.

but this thread is about how great the Russian military is so for the sake of not derailing, I am going to say that I think the Russian military does some things very well: mainly raping prepubescent children and forcing the parents to watch, getting drunk and falling asleep in dumpsters, and stealing toilets to put in their houses that have no plumbing. they're also pretty good at throwing dogs into washing machines and tossing a live grenade into kill the dog. I mean every country's got there little secret sauce that makes their military the envy of the rest of the world.

Do you honestly think the US would miss an opportunity to plant a bomb one of such merchant vessels, then blame the explosion on Russia and demand a no-fly zone/the introduction of Polish and Baltic NATO peacekeepers/etc?

Also, Ukraine mined the Black Sea and the Turks have already complained about their mines washing up in the Bosphorus.

The Lusitania Sinks: May 7, 1915​

The captain of the Lusitania ignored the British Admiralty’s recommendations, and at 2:12 p.m. on May 7 the 32,000-ton ship was hit by an exploding torpedo on its starboard side. The torpedo blast was followed by a larger explosion, probably of the ship’s boilers, and the ship sank off the south coast of Ireland in less than 20 minutes.

It was revealed that the Lusitania was carrying about 173 tons of war munitions for Britain, which the Germans cited as further justification for the attack. The United States eventually protested the action, and Germany apologized and pledged to end unrestricted submarine warfare. However, in November of that same year a U-boat sunk an Italian liner without warning, killing more than 270 people, including more than 25 Americans. Public opinion in the United States began to turn irrevocably against Germany.

I'm instead going to attribute their great performance to, also funnily enough, literal warlords being more competent commanders than our friends Baranyuk, Volyna and Kalina.

This isn't all that surprising. Incompetent warlords tend to end up dead pretty quickly, whereas a lot of countries treat the military as a political promotion machine, and have jack and shit as far as experience goes.

He gets shanghai'd by his own commanders for genuine, justified insanity.

There's literally no advantage to preemptively nuking a non-nuclear power, especially when you are actively trying to occupy the territory.
