    It will be interesting to see if Israel has a similar experience to Russia. They attacked with a massive advantage and were able to carry out operations with the home front secure, for awhile. Now Ukraine has developed a robust strategic strike capability that is causing serious military and economic damage. Israel may face a similar situation, even with the US willing to participate directly on their behalf.

      What a delusional take on the conflict in Ukraine. Even the US media is describing the situation as a slow motion collapse for Ukraine. Ukraine has lost multiple entire armies needing quite literally every piece of armor replaced by the West. Ukrainian soldiers report being absolutely pummeled by glide bombs and artillery while they have nearly zero ability to respond and near complete inability to move around due to Russian air dominance and constant drone recon.

      Ukraine has managed to through a few small explosives strapped to drones and hit civilian targets in Russia, and that’s about it.

      Ukraine has literally developed nothing - everything they are using on the battlefield is old Soviet stock or supplied by their Western colonial allies.

      What are you even talking about?

      Robust strategic strike capability 🤣 Ukraine has the full backing of the same financial system, through the very same military industrial complex supporting Israel, and you think they’re plucky underdogs who will come out on top by throwing drones at Russia’s rear. The USA has almost finished exsanguinating Ukraine completely, and now the mercenaries are getting encircled. When is Russia running out of cruise missiles, by the way? In late 2022 I heard that would be soon. You seem very informed about these matters, please fill me in!
