@Michael-fz8wq I never said I wouldn't be willing to fight in the right circumstances. I did 3 tours of duty myself; I'm not averse to combat or fighting. However, war is a costly way, in both material and human terms, to solve problems. Moreover, warfare often creates the hatred and hardened hearts that lead to the chronic distrust between countries. It almost guarantees that you'll pass on the same problems to the next generation. If you're going to choose fighting, you best ensure there is a strong moral imperative you're defending. To do otherwise only leaves countries with shattered economies, and vets as well as the local populace with fractured minds.

Still largely a counter-insugency. In Ukraine its a toe to toe battle with an adversary that outguns you with no air support, no overwhelming firepower to call upon if you're in danger of being overrun and inadequate supply. I suspect fighting in Ukraine would be a rude awakening even for a Vietnam vet. A Korean vet may have experienced something more like it, but even then a US soldier had more lavish support and infrastructure. Its hard to imagine an experience a US serviceman would have gone through that compares. Bastogne, Iwo Jima or Meuse-Argonne would probably be the closest, but being on the receiving end of Russia's massed artillery barrages in the summer would have been a horrific experience like being in the trenches of WW1.

The Iraqis were wearing flip-flops with AK-47 assault rifles. And you shot them with artillery and carpet bombing with the help of aviation, and then the infantry marched across the scorched earth. It won't work against the Russians, your mercenaries from Iraq are simply being ground there, as you did with the Iraqis. Feel it on your own skin.

China invading US is not a good analogy. US invading Canada would fit way better cuz both countries have shared history and language + have a land border. The reason for example being Canada wanting to turn Communist and have Chinese weapons on its soil. And then China sending troops and weapons to assist Canada in winning against US would be exactly the same as what US is doing now in Ukraine.

Recently this year a Ukrainian planr exploded in Greece with white phosphorus (wonder now why they haven't been talking much about it). Why wouldn't Ukraine use their white phosphorus? Is the production dead or our "recently democratic and libertt " fellows suddenly decided to behave like angels and find a place in heaven? And again, doesn't change anything about the fact that the country is victim of the invasion.
