French General Michel Yakovleff considers Ukraine’s army the best in Europe, Moscow army appeared to be from the third league.

We have the most powerful military force on earth.

By far
No one will challenge us directly, but that gap is closing, and may not be as wide as you think.

The Pentagon does not envision a large-scale conventional ground war. The major projects- F-35, B-21, Ford Class, Columbia and Virginia Classes, Long Range Strike, etc.

Air Force and Navy. We restructured ground forces to be smaller and more agile, and we haven't invested very much in modernization.

Just look how hard it's been for the US and NATO to supply Ukraine without tapping active-duty equipment. Look at the scramble to increase production rates on munitions.

Once we're up and going we can out-produce anyone. But we have to get back in that mode. We haven't been building up anything since the end of the cold war, neither have out NATO allies. Everyone's mil budgets have been halved or worse...

The end of the Cold War was an opportunity to draw down our military forces…..the threat was gone

Our military budget has only grown

Russia is not a threat, N Korea is the same as it has been for 50 years, China is a local threat and only Naval

We don’t need to be the worlds policeman
 
Russia is like a Heavyweight Boxer who has punched himself out.
Ukraine no longer fears them

Russia no longer has a path to victory
Time to cut their losses
You just scribble for the sake of filling time .

My hint to you is that peope like you are rejected in a couple of minutes at the initial application weeding out stage .
I have dealt with countless BS merchants with unerring success . After a time you can smell them in seconds .

Not fooled by your "Muslim" hate hoaxes either....

No, we spent a much higher percentage of GDP on defense in the Cold War, our NATO allies too.

When did the Cold War end? I see only Russia only paused from the Cold War for a few years. Clinton made the mistake of thinking the Cold War was over, and he made China a member of the WTO as a developing economy so it could steal American jobs while barring American companies from competing against Chinese companies and he spent $28 billion ($50 billion in today's dollars) rescuing Russia from its economic collapse after the dissolution of the USSR so that Putin could come along to threaten America and its allies. If he had spent more time chasing interns around the WH and less time working on foreign policy, many of today's problems wouldn't exist.

Calling America the world's police is a symptom of brain rotl. The US is trying to make the world safe for Americans and American companies and for our allies, not to solve all the world's problems.

Are you willing to admit that you need to tell Putin he can’t win this and needs to pull out?

What does he have to gain at this point vs what he has to lose?
