I’ve been saying this for a week, don’t wait for the enemy to be ready. Hit them hard, in their staging areas, before they are ready.
😐I agree.
Hit them in their staging areas, steal their lunch money, and push them into a locker.
Absolutely!
I was saying this before the war started. "someone" should have supplied Ukraine with a couple of long-range missiles. Drop one in the staging area the minute the first Russian crosses the border, and let Putin know the other one will be arriving in Red Square if the survivors don't turn around.
With what? They have too little planes/artillery/tanks.
@@ralphm6901 do that and you gonna wonder why it's sunny at 2am......
Hopefully Ukraine has also been getting intelligence on Russia from the West that they can put to good use.
They are, we are sharing everything we see with them.

Defending yourself from an invader is not a hate crime. Stop sending your homosexuals over the border.

It's time my German chancellor finally wakes up when it comes to delivering armour to Ukraine! Really, as a German citizen I literally can't stand his reluctance anymore! I have absolutely no idea what's the point for Chancellor Scholz.
Gli stati che mandano armi in una guerra sono passibili di attacco diretto sia chiaro.
O sono neutrali e cercano negoziato o vengono attaccati direttamente.
As long as we give them the tools, they don't need any advice from us on how to engage Russia. They already know what to do.
You clearly don’t remember us training Ukraine military since 2014..
@@aghost1410 Yeah Anonymous hacking group has already found all of this information out, they have hacked all of the signed documents saying what you just said to be true. Russia have plans to sell all of the wood to various countries like China from the forests also. Putin knows Russia was broke before the invasion he needed Ukraine's resources to sell. That's why Putin wanted to put in a Puppet Government so he could control the Metals, the soil for agriculture, the gas, the oil etc

They can only go on the offensive if they're given what they're asking for. Give them tanks, missile systems and MIGs.

No more escalation.

Democrats are afraid of "escalaaaation".... to allow Poland’s MiG-29 to be given to Ukrainians.
In other words they afraid of Putin.
"This is their land. They know where to attack." ... military genius :-D :-D :-D
For those who ask: “Why does Ukraine matter?"
This is why Ukraine matters: (and this is why Russia want to exploit Ukraine for Russias own agenda )
It is the second largest country in Europe by area and has a population of over 43 million persons - more than Poland by about 6 million.
Ukraine ranks:
1st in Europe in proven recoverable reserves of uranium ores;
2nd place in Europe and 10th place in the world in terms of titanium ore reserves;
2nd place in the world in terms of explored reserves of manganese ores (2.3 billion tons, or 12% of the world's reserves);
2nd largest iron ore reserves in the world (30 billion tons);
2nd place in Europe in terms of mercury ore reserves;
3rd place in Europe (13th place in the world) in shale gas reserves (22 trillion cubic meters)
4th in the world by the total value of natural resources;
7th place in the world in coal reserves (33.9 billion tons)
Ukraine is an important agricultural country:
1st in Europe in terms of arable land area;
3rd place in the world by the area of black soil (25% of world's volume);
1st place in the world in exports of sunflower and sunflower oil;
2nd place in the world in barley production and 4th place in barley exports;
3rd largest producer and 4th largest exporter of corn in the world;
4th largest producer of potatoes in the world;
5th largest rye producer in the world;
5th place in the world in bee production (75,000 tons);
8th place in the world in wheat exports;
9th place in the world in the production of chicken eggs;
16th place in the world in cheese exports.
Ukraine can meet the food needs of 600 million people that all of Europe 2 time .
Ukraine is an important industrialized country:
1st in Europe in ammonia production;
Europe's 2nd’s and the world’s 4th largest natural gas pipeline system;
3rd largest in Europe and 8th largest in the world in terms of installed capacity of nuclear power plants;
3rd place in Europe and 11th in the world in terms of rail network length (21,700 km);
3rd place in the world (after the U.S. and France) in production of locators and locating equipment;
3rd largest iron exporter in the world
4th largest exporter of turbines for nuclear power plants in the world;
4th world's largest manufacturer of rocket launchers;
4th place in the world in clay exports
4th place in the world in titanium exports
8th place in the world in exports of ores and concentrates;
9th place in the world in exports of defense industry products;
10th largest steel producer in the world (32.4 million tons).
Ukraine matters!! AND THIS IS WHY Ukraine's independence is important to the rest of the world!!!.
Russian only invaded after it was proved by geologist that Ukraine in fact has the 3rd largest gas fracking reserves this was something they only found out about in 2013 ..(Russia and Putin was afraid if a EU / US friendly government came to power in Kiev the EU and USA will move in start gas production and the EU will start buying its gas from Ukraine and not Russia )
Ukraine has Europe's 3rd largest shale gas reserves at 42 trillion cubic ...Russia’s silent shale gas victory in Ukraine The vast shale gas reserves in the separatist-held Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Lugansk regions are an important element not to be overlooked when analyzing the Ukraine crisis.
Ukraine loses 80% of oil and gas deposits in Black Sea due to annexation of Crimea and that is what Putin wants to make sure never happens becouse since 1991 he and his oligarch buddies have been tapping into those resources for themselves stealing the profits from the Ukrainian ppl.
Thank you, now we know the interest s americans have in that region.

@@kraiguarsmith2897 their army is beaten. 95% of their tanks and heavy weapons are destroyed thanks to the brilliant Russian strategy of drawing them out in the feint attack on Kiev. They have no air support.
What's left of their troops are surrounded in the Mariupol area.
I'll be generous and give it a week.
About 50 well serviced MIGs would even the odds.
I agree... There is no talk capable of calling Putin to reason... The best defense in this case is attack, destroy!
🇷🇺 Ну давай рискни. В радиоктивный пепел превратиться не боишься?
I was hoping when Russia withdrew from the north they would mount a small offensive to take Kherson (only Russia territory west of the main river, Russia has set the bridge to blow on their retreat), Mariupol and west towards Crimea and take out the bridge to Crimea (force Russia to resupply Crimea by ship and air), or around Kharkiv (northeast corner of territory Russia is targeting to take). Any of these would have decreased the front Ukraine has to defend.
I am also curious if Russian soldiers are motivated to go into a new offensive.
Then we hope the eastern Ukrainian people luck, when they attack and destroy Kiev.
@Chris Viking вот напугал, так напугал. Когда же вы идиоты перестанете верить в бред ваших правительств о отсталости российской армии. Насколько наша армия отсталая, спроси об этом у британского наемника Джейсона Хейга. Он тебе расскажет, почему он сбежал из Украины встретившись с нашей армией. Или у южнокорейского капитана спецназа Ли Гына. По той же причине сбежавшего. Ваши наемники разбегаются, как крысы. Сафари на русских варваров не получилось. Хотите повоевать? Нет проблем. Только прогулки, как в Ираке или Афганистане у вас не получится. Мы вам зубами глотки рвать будем. Мы фанатики. Для нас погибнуть за Родину, защищая свой народ, свою страну - это счастье.
Ты Россию на карте мира найти сможешь? А Украину? Найди подумай, если есть чем думать нужна ли нам территория Украины. Ответь на вопрос - сколько за последние 30 лет начало войн НАТО? А сколько Россия. Ну и кто агрессор? Что мы делаем в Украине? Спасаем мир от нацизма. Учи историю Второй Мировой, мальчик. Конкретно против СССР. Знаешь кто такие бандеровцы?
I also agree too, the Ukrainians need to keep up the guerrilla-warfare tactics against the Russians, they need to keep attacking the Russians when least expected, like Sun Tzu says in his book, The Art Of War, also, another good tactic is to get the enemy to do your fighting for you, so that they keep being exhausted and demoralized, while the Ukrainian soldiers are able to rest and keep up their will to fight, and then once the Russians are at their weakest, they can be easily crushed and defeated, I totally "get" all that now having read Sun Tzu's book.
One of the U.S. retired generals said we spent $20 billion a month in Iraq and Afghanistan - and we've spent $2+ billion so far in Ukraine - I think we need to send a lot more, a lot faster as Zelensky said.
Send your money. I don't want my tax money squanered on such stupidity.

The only way NATO joins this fight is when Russia withdraws. The Ukraine needs to make the occupation hurt. Send hundreds of thousands of Russian soldiers home in body bags. Make them bleed for every inch of Ukraine they occupy.
As soon as Russia withdraws, the Ukraine will be a full member of NATO within hours.

If the Ukrainians in the East are surrounded, doesn't that mean their supply lines are completely cutoff? It's hard to fight without food and ammunition.
100% agreed with you Colonel. The art of love said, if you love me, I shall love you back. The madness say, an eye for an eye!
Without air cover, you can’t expect Ukrainian forces to go on the offensive too far into open country. They can apply pressure, but not be fooled by false soft resistance to draw them in
only to be rear flanked and cut-off.
They need air support. They need good intelligence. They need supply lines that are not broken.
Answer: Ukranian pilots.
@@c.rutherford How big do you think their Air force is? They simply don't have the numbers to go on the offensive, they operate barely even under there own Sam systems protection.
Just give them nuclear weapons. Putin will back off
@@calelliot3703 exactly and to be honest the sad reality is that the longer the fight continues the more ukrainian pilots get killed newly trained pilots won't be as well trained. They're stretched thin enough. The only benefit of going on the offensive is for putin to look weaker in diplomacy but Russia knows that an offensive will only last so long. And now that Russia are focusing on the Eastern front it will be near impossible to heckle the supply lines as effectively as they've been doing. It will be a blood bath from here on out. Ukraine needs to find peace. But putin must know occupation of Ukraine will be a disaster surely.
HiMARS High Mobility Artillery Rocket System was developed to deal with a massive tank attack in Europe. This system can make the difference in the Russian attack in the open land of Eastern Ukraine. These units are in Poland now. They need to be in Eastern Ukraine now.
Ukrainians should attack Russian cities to,,, like the saying goes AN EYE FOR AN EYE -- A TOOTH FOR A TOOTH,,,, UKRAINIANS YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO GO & ATTACK THEM IN THEIR OWN TERRITORY,,, SEE HOW THEY FEEL,,,,,, BUT Leniski is a kind hearted man, I don't think that he do that to innocent children & women .
@5LAMPO7 yes in Poland. They need to be in Ukraine. HiMARS were developed to deal with a massive Russian armor attack. They have not been sent to Ukraine. At least a hundred need to be sent with at least 10000 rounds of missiles. This stuff is all ready in Europe and simply needs to be sent. This weapon has the ability to stop the attacks on the cities and to stop dead any Russian armor attack. Needs to be sent.

They already took out a fuel depot in Russia and need to take the rest out.
@Brandon Palmer I don't know. They could be surrounded and outnumbered. That would be suicide.
Just announce that areas within 160km (100 miles) of the border are in a war zone and subject to attack. Hit Electric plants, and water supplies.
@Brandon Palmer No... they should not touch Russia, at most the Donbass region.
@Brandon Palmer Ukraine can't take Russia Brandon. Ukraine won't be able to keep Ukraine if they don't get the RIGHT weapons. It's looking like NATO is Skeered of Putin. They should be, BUT that could lead to a really big problem. They should give Ukraine the RIGHT weapons. If it is not too late.
If there is one lesson to be learned from the German experiences in this region, it's much more practical to let the Russians string out their columns and overrun their logistics. Taking out their gas trucks is a marvelous way to facilitate this, and the Ukranians can just drive up across the fields in a car with a trunkful of anti-tank weapons, accompanied by the tractors.
Imagine a single A-10 going down that convoy line.
But what this stupid show is suggesting is that Ukraine should do that....Russia's supply lines are very short.
@@suminshizzles6951 Yes.

Sending the older longer range anti-ship & anti-aircraft weapons to Ukraine that can be used immediately without the need for training is the best choice. NATO needs to jam Russia's longer range missiles that can be launched from outside Ukraine so to become ineffective. This will even the odds.

Hydrogen ICBM with Mao's name on it
You are so right I'm sorry, that my country isn't stepping up to bat for the fight for Freedom
Dont understand how the press can show tanks lining up for an attack, and no one launching a preemptive strike.
Yes, the Russians have an advantage in open-field tanks and artillery, but the Ukrainians also have advantages. First, they'll have MUCH shorter interior lines of supply, communication and movement, and will be able to move units and supplies much more quickly in response to changing battlefield conditions.
Second, the Ukrainians are now adding to their arsenal not only the usual NLAWs, Stingers, Javelins and drones, but S-300 long-range air defense systems, APCs, Harpoon anti-ship missiles and T-72 tanks.
Third, many of the 'reinforcements' being sent to Donbas are the same soldiers who just had their a$$es handed to them in the Battle of Kyiv, and there's NO WAY they've had sufficient time to recover their supplies, morale or combat readiness. And, just as they did in the north, they'll be facing very highly motivated Ukrainians who are defending their home turf.
Putin's obviously rushing these troops into battle to try to achieve some sort of 'victory' in Donbas so he can crow about it at the May 9 Victory Day parade. But his reckless miscalculations are going to cost his troops dearly, as they did in the north. And that would make my day! Slava Ukraini!
The question to your analysis is:
Does Ukraine have provision and fuel to endure Russian waves?
😁
If the situation is as good to be true as you think, Zelensky will not lashing out begging for more and more and more and more help.
I think...
If Russian offensive fails - they don't have the resources for another offensive.
If Russian offensive succeeds - Ukraine moves to guerilla warfare, attacking small outposts and Russian supply lines (which will be up to 160 miles long).
@@KeluargaBuaya it will be the Russians begging for help.
@@1SCme Well, if you learn from battle progress few weeks back, you 'if' scenario is actually reversed than the reality.
If Russia offensive fails, they don't have anymore resource left: wrong.
Russian did made mistake in the strategy of Kiev siege. They had significant loss, they failed, they pull back the forces. Within a week, they came back to the eastern territory with a fresh column of tanks and replenished supplies.
Conclusion: Russian do have some reserved supplies. They are seasoned nation in warfare and not to be underestimated.
If Russia offensive success, Ukraine will switch to guerilla tactics: Wrong.
Ukraine and Russian lands are flat lands with very few forest. Hiding in the forest is the biggest mistake for that means taking surrounded grounds.
The most feasible way is to switch to urban warfare where the defending forces can use buildings for shelter and keep a close distance to supplies.
Russian had bombed Ukraine oil mills, fuel depots, and food storages all across Ukraine the whole week while projecting their forces to the east. This means the provision limitation of Ukraine forces is imminent, thus eliminate the chance of Ukrainians going for guerilla tactics.

The Ukrainian army needs to go meet the Russians "visiting" their land. And give them a "warm welcome"
The Ukrainians need to:
- destroy the eastern Russian convoy ASAP ... drones probably would be best along with shoulder fired anti-tank weapons.
- Destroy the Russian navy with surface to ship missles.
- Resupply Ukrainian soldiers in Marapol with ammunition and shoulder fired missles ...likely by helicopter or high flight air drops.
- Develop special forces operations of small groups to go inside Russia and destroy military targets and production facilities. Force Russian to divert troops and resources to defend their own territory.
If Ukraine just focuses on defense alone .... they are going to suffer even more devastating damage and losses. Some offensive operations would almost certainly help Ukraine in a big way.

Lukashenko can't push his luck too hard. He does not have popular support. If he pushes his military into a fight they don't want, it may prove to be a tipping point.
Wasn't he the weather guy? Strange how he is going to talk about war like it's weather forecast...
Why aren't they blowing up the convoy ? Can anyone answer ?
We need to give what they need, world wide. Poetin has no mercy at all and thinks that almost the hole world is against Russia and him. He wants to have the coal reserves in the soil of Donbass as well no doubt.

I am very thankful to the US for doing the right thing in this situation, and the US have gained much respect for this.
And I hope that every country will supply as many weapons as possible.There is no other way to stop this terrible and unjustified war started by russia. It is a shame.
You are dying for nothing and for US geostrategic interest. Russians will devastate your troops in Donbas this is not a joke anymore. They have incomparable and superior firepower and will not afford to lose the war. I feel sorry for Ukrainians being deceived by US.
@@orthodoxserb6596 Did Putler order you to write this?
They should stop supplying weapons, instead usa should go inside Ukraine. Sounds like a barking dog with no teeth.
There are other ways to stop this war. Stop saying that. Use your brain instead of listening to Putin.
Stop. When Ukraine wins this war it should never listen to negativity.
Well Said Sir👍👍👍
Should have been done even before day 1. What a miscalculation!
When fighting for your home, the fight gets taken to another level and makes it far more difficult for an invader, usupported by local resources.
Why should we support neo-nazis? They have been killing civilians for the past 8 years, over 14,000 where was the outcry then..?
@Chris Viking Say that to the 100K neo nazis trapped, I think they would disagree with you.

Yes, tell the world how much ammo has been sent. 🤦🏻♂️
Indeed.
1. That photo is a T-80 variant, not a T-72
2. The media needs to stop talking about this war like it has yet to be seen in the east of the country. Some of the heaviest battles have been in the east in the last five weeks, but how close the Russians got to the capital and other major cities ate up all the news coverage. The Ukrainians have been in a constant ebb and flow with Russian forces in the east just like they were in Kyiv and the south. The media and the analysts and guests they have on their shows need to stop talking like Ukraine has no idea how to fight the Russians in the east, because that's simply false.
That sounds encouraging. It's easy to follow the media. It's good to know the Ukrainians are holding their own. I just wish the west would get the right kinds of weapons needed to go on the offensive and keep the Russians on defence then drive them out. Six wee kk s ago no one would ever thought that possible. Today it's clear to, given the right weapons, Ukraine could very well win this special military operation!
yes and they were losing territories, which is a huge difference vs an attack on Kiev...
@Jason Forester : But Ukraine has been fighting Russia on the east front since 2014, and not winning. So maybe a change in strategy might help?
@@michaelgl8516 it tells a lot about how they are capable of doing an offensive now...impossible mission and certain death
I absolutely agree with the colonel. Russia would be stopped only when its cities especially Moscow are hit by missiles 👌
Hitting Moscow with missiles unless it's nuclear isn't going to do it you going to have to take Moscow
If Ukraine fires a missile at Moscow the Russians will target the capital city of the country that supplied the missile.
That means involving uninvolved/innocent civilians- the eye for an eye treatment doesn't work in this situation.
Moscow would retaliate with devastating nuclear force if it was attacked. You're talking about provoking a country led by a brutal man who has enough nuclear weapons to put is all to sleep...permanently!
@@chirpywiggins5796 No doubt about it, its WW3 material and tactics, sad to say 😐
Apparently, Ukraine Armed Forces are in danger of being encircled... they may need to perform a tactical retreat... unless they get enough airpower and armor weapons to be able to counter-attack...
Praying for Ukraine
Amateurs talk strategy, professionals talk logistics. We have no idea what Ukraine can do. Only Ukraine can answer these questions.
they can not do anything, this propaganda will lead to a total slaughter of what remained from Ukr army...disaster, someone will be responsible for this for sure later..
In terms of going on the offensive, I would say it's a combination. When you are defending from a position where you are dug in and it takes perhaps five offenders for every defender then you would want Russia to attack somewhat and diminish them.
Secondly, attacking is also good considering the Russians are not dug in for defense, they are moving and depleted, and their morale is low. Invading Russians are more easily attacked while Ukrainians are more easily positioned to defend as well. That's very foreboding for putin. Another key is to make sure their new general alexander the butcher understands Russian generals have a very short life span in Ukraine.

If they can pull it off logically, they could be on the offense behind the Russians while the Ukrainians would be defending in front. This wouldn’t work in the Northeast, but would be viable in the South. The Russians still have to hold the real estate they take and this has already not worked well for them. More and more drones will be needed to silence the big guns.
You must be a General.
You know nothing
This. Ukraine should force Russia to advance out of prepared positions.
Totally agree!!!!
You know they they keep an eye on the American news right so keep showing them where they're at keep telling them that helps Ukraine
They needed those weapons
6 weeks ago , thousands of lives ago.
Agree what we're they all doing twiddling their thumbs until they could justify the expenditure as a result of the butcher of bucha and many other regions. Wtf did they think ukraines army was going to use stones?
Yes, once Ukrainians got the full support of finance and militarily the rest they will take care the Russians as we have seen in the last 5 weeks. Ukrainians they are special fierce fighters equally men and women.
Thank you for the show stand with Ukraine !
Go Ukrainians on the offensive!
SLAVA UKRAINI !
Victory ✌️ to Ukraine 🇺🇦
Totally agree. They’ve got the people they just need the equipment. And definitely includes more advanced tanks and NiG-29 fighter jets. Poland needs to stop sitting on its hands and actually get them over there. If Putin was going to attack over military equipment he would’ve done it with any form of explosive. Ironically in this case to him, size doesn’t matter. We need these deliveries to keep going in to Ukraine on a regular basis rather than one off deliveries. Slava Ukraine 🇬🇧❤️💪🏼🇺🇦
ukraine should spend less time demanding handouts and focus on fighting. Too bad ukraine gave up nuclear weapons or none of this would have happened.
@@danielwhyatt3278
The West have come to their senses today. The Ukrainians will achieve if they get what they have asked for. We are for sure, the Ukrainians are really warriors they will deal the way professionals do their business. A professional Ukrainian Army with the right weapons and 100% population behind the army I have no doubt the victory to get rid of Occupiers from their land is invetable.
@@cba4389 You need weapons to fight and true about hanging on to the nukes would have been sufficient deterrent Until put to use, then hello WWIII.
@@cba4389 Putin should spend less time attacking peaceful neighbors, but *Should* is such a useless word.
Go on the offensive with what? An offensive would require air superiority and vast quantities of rolling armor. Not to mention large numbers of troops trained in maneuver warfare.
With an eight mile convoy now is the best time to go on the offensive.
Please help them All with a full Maximum Strength ! My heart is really weeping for the innocent victims 😭😭😭.God bless ukraine 🙏🙏🙏 sending my prayers and sympathy.
Glory to Russia
Long live great Russia and good Putin 🇷🇺
Does your heart weep for the millions of children killed by the Americans or brown, black and Asian children don’t matter to you? You absolute muppet
You know. The Colonel here made a really interesting point about oversupplying a force. I like what he said about keeping the supplies moving at a manageable pace and ensuring communications are not hampered.
This fight won't be a sprint basically. Get what you can to fight as fast as possible to start and then keep the resupply coming in at a manageable pace to sustain the pressure. As seen previously, the Russian logistical system has been found lacking. You can defeat them by attrition.
War will be at least 18 months, probably 36-48.

@@cindybogart6062 we want it to end fast, but if Ukraine wants to preserve its territorial intergority, that means they will have to push Russians out of defensivily held positions, that is a 2-3 year task if the war remains Ukraine vs Russia (with western aid) then it will take Ukraine a while to push Russia out.
They need to stop those forces coming down from the north through Belgorod.
Where are all these now , They are all talk. Give it to them now.
Just saw a report that the Russian column in the east was attacked by the Ukraine military and stopped
Godwilling
Source?
Ukrainian Special Operations forces blew up (or more accurately, damaged) a bridge, in Russia, along the route the convoy is most likely to take. This could stall the advance for an undetermined amount of time (several weeks, possibly?). I think they need to do more of this, but have to be careful as to the scale of their operations, lest Russia regards these missions as an attack on their homeland,
I totally agree with the Col. Ukraine should attack right now as Russian troops gather and move into position. It's like saying to Russian, "we'll wait until you get your full forces in place before we attack". Attack now while they are still stretched out and vulnerable.
It depends of the type of attacks. You cannot be stationary. It has to be hit and runs
We can’t provoke the nuclear option or the planet and humanity are toast.

@@cnvi08 the planet will be just fine. Maybe not humans but oh well….

@@cnvi08 We don't. Ukraine offensive doesn't meant to conquer Russia (that's obviously impossible), it means to crash Russian forces amassed in Ukraine. Although is sounds fantastic, the truth is that Ukraine does not have yet enough offensive weapon to do that.
Why aren’t this eight mile convoy getting disrupted ?
We must provide everything they need, tanks, fighters, helicopters, artillery, heavy machine guns, mortars, everything,.
This has been the most important time for Ukraine to attack and not give the Russians any rest. Once the Russians are moving back Ukraine must attack hard while Russia moves. Russia must be kept under attack without letting up. History proves that once you are pushing an enemy if you let up, this will cost you heavily. Do not let them the ability to stop or push back. Military battlefield commanders know this.
Attacking Russia in their own backyard ????????

One word.
Dig, conceal, ambush, move.
More tanks for tank battles with Russian tanks? I'd say they need more Javelins and switchblade drones where they can destroy Russian tanks from further distances. For tanks to do Ukraine any good, they'd need air support which unfortunately they don't have.
Right you are. They've been begging for planes for weeks, and worthless Biden does nothing. Afraid it would "antagonize" the wonderful Putin.
