Wow, Bobko returns! I don't remember anyone saying Russia would run out of missiles in weeks, but maybe someone did.

Sorry, not a leftist. Intelligent thinker here, and yes, any idiot still pumping Trump may as well be a redneck banging his cousin in Kentucky. Anyone pumping for Biden is an idiot as well, and may as well be banging Hilary while destroying emails. Better? I own property and pay a whole lot in taxes in the US, I have every right to my opinion. More right than the illegals who argue against it, and more right than bums who pay no taxes. I dont care who I offend when expressing my opinion, again thats the beauty of a free country.
The US is not ever going to run out of missiles. It is in a peace time economy and production is being ramped up. If it were a war time economy like in Russia, the US would be pumping out weapons faster than anyone could imagine. Thats the beauty about free market economies, they work better than government-controlled ones.

I reported what was being said here in Poland real time. Simple explanation. If you would have posted all my opinion expressed later in the thread instead of just taking one quote you would have also posted that I thought it could have been a mistake, or could have been a test to see the NATO response. That was my opinion. But I do stick by the opinion that Crimea should be flattened regardless, and NATO has not been quick enough to give Ukraine weapons to take out the Orcs more quickly and efficiently.
Meanwhile, as Velund was talking about the delusional goals of Russia making its own chips for technology, reports of real Russians becoming more frustrated with Putin and the war are now getting out. Reverse engineering of chips takes years, and building factories to produce them takes years. All the software Russia tried to copy or reverse engineer in the 70's and 80's never worked and they tried for decades. Russia producing chips after all the truly intelligent people have left the country is about as likely as a caveman building a Tesla with stone tools. Christmas without being able to buy western goods is not going to be so cheery. While hundreds of families every day receive news of their son being killed, a growing number of families are getting tired of the Putinazi routine.
