So you agree with my first post that Russia hasn’t changed strategy in 100+ years. That’s one thing in trench warfare against equally matched and equally equipped forces such as WWI. But also as I said Ukraine basically has no air force. Sparse naval and next to no air defense, so sure. Let’s rally around the Battle of attrition vs Ukraine . Job well done. as I have said many times since this war began Russia is basically zero threat to the west unless they launch nukes china on the other hand.

Ukraine destroys Russia's BUK surface-to-air missile launcher, damages two more radar-equipped launchers - Euromaidan Press Ukraine continues to degrade the Russian air defense capabilities.

Why doesn’t Ukraine have an Air Force ? Why no navy ? Why no air defense ? Orcs must be pretty good fighting out of trenches. And I agree that Russia is no threat to the U.S. Unless of course it enters Ukraine, in which case it’s subject to … google: war of attrition.
You're vastly underestimating Russia's capabilities and long-term strategy of winning by attrition. You're also illustrating why the Biden administration and Ukraine should not have poked the bear.
Sometimes the truth has to be regurgitated a few times for the mentally-challenged to understand it. Right, Lee Harvey?
