Call me an idiot but I don’t think any amount of money is going to salvage this war for the West. This could’ve been finished a long time ago, but sure, put yourselves in more debt. That’ll end really well.
I think most people understand that Russia is going to win at this point, hence why the west is becoming increasingly unhinged. These people staked their entire political careers on this war, and when it ends badly there are going to be a lot of questions. So, they’re basically trying to drag this out as long as possible hoping for some way to spin it as a win.
The problem is that money does not directly translate into military power. Reality is not Command & Conquer where you just queue a bunch of riflemen for some buxx and have them soon after.
Money printer go brrrrrrr
Winning the war isn’t the primary goal. The primary goal is justifying spending taxpayer dollars on weapons. The exorbitant waste is part of the point.
wealth transfer at all costs
Turns out it’s not money that makes artillery shells, but machines and people.
Oh they’re so cocky that they always show their cards.
Nobody talks about warfare in these terms unless you are deranged and subhuman scum
What’s asymmetrical warfare?
Guerrilla warfare, partisans, and any warfare that doesn’t directly engage the main enemy force.
Asymmetrical warfare is not terrorism. But terrorism can be asymmetrical.
You are gonna have to school me here. I don’t know what partisans are technically. How are they asymmetric in nature?
Partisans, guerrillas, insurgents, resistance fighters, and militia are all essentially the same thing. They are soldiers or civilians that become combatants, but not part of a dedicated outfit in a nations armed forces.
Symmetric warfare has soldiers operate in organized groups, with dedicated logistics and supply and support companies, that communicate and work together with other squads, divisions, battalions, etc usually along a defined battle line. This is your typical “army”.
Asymmetrical warfare is designed to hurt the enemy where small groups can do it best. In the example of Soviet partisans, they did not fight the German army directly. They blew up bridges, ambushed convoys, derailed trains, destroyed communications networks, undertook assassinations, committed various forms of sabotage, and executed small scale raids, etc.
Asymmetrical fighters are usually soldiers that have been cut off behind enemy lines, or civilians that take up arms against occupations. They are small and isolated, which makes them difficult to root out and destroy.
Such fighters are meant to operate in secret. They strike and then disappear, either by going into hiding or blending in with the civilian population. Which is why counter partisans usually punished local civilians for partisan action.
Thank you
Happy to help : )
