the whole thing is unraveling at a rate of knots now

There's no one left to round up and send to certain death, NATO can't afford to spare more equipment and ammunition. Money is running low or out completely. The "cope" narratives are making the media a laughingstock. RoW or Global South has not only refused to submit but turned their backs to the Collective West.

Iraq was bad, Afghanistan was worse, but this is the straw that breaks the camel's back.

Russia has effectively destroyed NATO's biggest army with 1 hand tied behind it's back and blindfolded. Not once or twice, but thrice.

There's a sense of frantic desperation from both NATO and the EU countries. Fractures are appearing, people are voting current regimes out, the US itself is hair trigger away from a civil war.

"But, but what about inroads to Russia's backyard? Armenia? The central Stans? Moldova?"

When the West is humiliated completely, those sitting on the fence will jump

Russia have set themselves back militallary for a generation, it will take them decades to replenish stocks, and that's with sanctions being removed.. They sent everything at Ukraine so saying 1 hand tied behind its back and blindfolded is a daft statment. Their full might was sent into Ukraine and they only controll 15%.... stop painting an utter fail as a win.

nonsense, they sent in 100k troops. plus one further round of mobilisation. that is nowhere near their full might. it is going in with at least one hand tied behind their backs.

They do seem to be getting a lot of money from China, however they are using it to buy arms from the major powers of Iran and North Korea.

I would be concerned if China started sending arms to Russia, however I'm not sure that will happen as Xi is already planning to annex parts of Russia, the money may just be an opening gambit as part of his bigger plan to give the West a bloody nose

First of all I don't for 1 second believe those numbers.. mobilization has been on going.. any numbers released by Russia dont count the criminals that Wagner recruited and 190K invaded at the start..

Yea.. Maybe their full might was not as mighty as they claimed.. 10200 tanks claimed before the war, a lot of which were pre 1970s more were left in storage outside for decades. what was the real number of actual fit for purpose tanks. Like most things with Russians military the real power was the perception of power.

The failure started with their special forces trying to take the aiport at the off to create an airbridge, wasn't it? They got blatted if I remember correctly. Then that big column of artillery etc getting pegged down and picked off. It has been one embarressment after another.
